    Saving faith is a gift given the sinner from Above. "Faith is full assurance of things hoped for, conviction of things not seen." Hebrews 11:1 Each sinner, dead in his trespasses and sins, must have his own personal encounter with the living God. ....having a religion is not It.

    I also believe that Genesis 3:15 and the promise to the serpent that the seed of the woman would crush him despite the bite to the heel, was passed down from Eve through many centuries and probably made its way into every religion in some way, shape, or form. So, while many religions might have certain similarities with the true fulfillment of Gen. 3:15, they would all get it ultimately wrong. The Gospels alone give us the full account of its fulfillment.

      That is the key to it all.. the seed of the woman v the seed of the serpent.. it can be said all of pagan mythos is derived from the first chapters of Genesis, however contorted. Continuously down the line, from Seth to Nimrod to Simon Magus.. Semiramis and the Babylonian harlot so on and on. The proto- Hercules, Ophiocus, Apollo etc.
      There are similarities indeed they cannot be discounted - the postdiluvians knew of the Genesis / Moses tradition.
      The Ark/Argos of Noah (Janus/Saturn) .. the crescent horns /moon of Isis represents the Boat that (re)birthed humanity. 8 gods i.e. family of Noa, were originally worshipped in AEgypt. The Ark of Noah is The cosmic egg of polytheism.. or the egg symbolism between two horns.. which are the twin peaks of Mt Arrat with the ark resting in between.

    What’s the Zohar and how does it relate to the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Or is it a mystical book. I did some research online but it is still not clear to me. Someone gave me the book it is written and Hebrew? However, I need some clarification. Thanks for answering this question.

    The idea that Christ was resurrected on Sunday and crucified on a "t" shaped crucifix was 100% borrowed from pagan traditions though, specifically the Tammuz cults. Basically, everything from the Palm Sunday tradition to the Easter Sunday tradition were borrowed from paganism. Christ did not ride into Jerusalem on Sunday, He didn't die on Friday, and He was resurrected on Saturday. The Bible 100% dispels all of these myths that traditional Christianity assumes to be true.

      There are no other historical sources to suggest anything other than the Biblical record. Also, nothing was borrowed, either the pagans borrowed from Christianity or there is no overlap at all.

    Man this guy missed the boat. The Bible and ALL of those stories are allegory for the sun and its movement across the sky couple with our existence. All the religions speak of the same Son=Sun that stops in the sky for three days and then rises again. This is called the analemma and is well documented. I give this guy an F so far!
