Mother Earth & Our Diseases
Mother Earth & Our Diseases
From
The Essene Jesus’ Teachings
Excerpts Quoted:
“Then many sick and maimed came to Jesus, asking him: ‘If you know all things, tell us, why do we suffer with these grievous plagues?’….
And Jesus answered: ‘Happy are you, that you hunger for the truth, for I will satisfy you with the bread of wisdom…. [Mother Earth] is in you, and you in her. She bore you; she gives you life. It was she who gave to you your body, and to her shall you one day give it back again. Happy are you when you come to know her and her kingdom; if you receive your Mother’s angels and if you do her laws, I tell you truly, he who does these things shall never see disease. For the power of our Mother is above all.
The air which we breathe is born of the breath of our Earthly Mother…. The hardness of our bones is born of the bones of our Earthly Mother, of the rocks and of the stones…. The tenderness of our flesh is born of the flesh of our Earthly Mother; whose flesh waxes yellow and red in the fruits of the trees, and nurtures us in the furrows of the fields…. Our bowels are born of the bowels of our Earthly Mother, and are hid from our eyes, like the invisible depths of the earth…. The light of our eyes, the hearing of our ears, both are born of the colors and the sounds of our Earthly Mother, which enclose us about, as the waves of the sea a fish, as the eddying air a bird.
I tell you in very truth, Man is the Son of the Earthly Mother, and from her did the Son of Man receive his whole body, even as the body of the newborn babe is born of the womb of his mother. I tell you truly, you are one with the Earthly Mother; she is in you, and you in her. Of her were you born, in her do you live, and to her shall you return again. Keep, therefore, her laws, for none can live long, neither be happy, but he who honors his Earthly Mother and does her laws.
I tell you truly, should you fail to keep but one of all these laws, should you harm but one of all your body’s members, you shall be utterly lost in your grievous sickness, and there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. I tell you, unless you follow the laws of your Mother, you can in no wise escape death. And he who clings to the laws of his Mother, to him shall his Mother cling also. She shall heal all his plagues, and he shall never become sick…. She has given you her body, and none but she heals you. Happy is he who loves his Mother and lies quietly in her bosom….
It was said to you: ‘Honor thy father and thy mother that thy days may be long upon this earth.’ But I say to you, Sons of Man: Honor your Earthly Mother and keep all her laws, that your days be long on this earth, and honor your Heavenly Father that eternal life may be yours in the heavens.’”

The Essenes and the four gospels
Gary,
Tell us more about what you perceive to be the "consistent teachings of Christ regarding the Kingdom, the Law, and healing."
We can all learn from comparing points of view. I, for one, would be very hesitant to dismiss the Essene teachings. Josephus, a first century Jewish historian and contemporary of the Apostle Paul (37-100 C.E.)describes the Essenes: "These Essenes have, by their excellent virtue, been thought worthy of this knowledge of divine revelations." --"Antiquities of the Jews," pg. 334.
Josephus, in his "Wars of the Jews," reveals three philosophical sects among the Jews: Pharisees, Sadducees, and Essenes. Speaking of the Essenes, Josephus says: "And as for their piety towards God, it is very extraordinary.... They are eminent for fidelity and are the ministers of peace .... They also take great pains in studying the writings of the ancients, and choose out of them what is most for the advantage of their soul and body; and they inquire after such roots and medicinal stones as may cure their distempers.... In the judgments they exercise they are most accurate and just.... They are long-lived also; insomuch that many of them live above a hundred years, by means of the simplicity of their diet; nay, as I think, by means of the regular course of life they observe also. They contemn [scorn] the miseries of life, and are above pain, by the generosity of their mind." Pgs. 476-478
That the Apostle Paul and the Church Fathers condemned or ignored the Essenes is not surprising. Paul was a Pharisee, thus of a rival sect. The Essenes were the mystics who lived in the desert; they shared very few of their inner teachings with the general public. They were natural healers and understood the laws relating to energy. In contrast to Paul and the Church Fathers, Jesus was constantly in conflict with the Pharisees and Sadducees. The above quoted excerpt from the Essene Gospel of Peace reveals Jesus was an Essene. John the Baptist, very likely also an Essene, called the Pharisees and Sadducees, "you brood of vipers."
I think the more important question is why did the Church Fathers attempt to remove all evidence of a 3rd Jewish sect--the Essenes--from the Bible and from history until the discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls in 1947? I have to ask, what they were trying to hide from the people?
As we increasingly discover ancient texts hidden in the Secret Archives of the Vatican, in Middle Eastern mountain caves, and beneath the sands of Egypt, we will learn much about the true history of the peoples of Jesus' time!
Bogus gospel
Law enforcement officers trained in detecting counterfeit bills are taught to study the look, texture and feel of real money as the primary means of discerning bogus bills. Most scholars accept the gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John as valid. This brief glimpse into the Essene gospel reveals what I would call a shoddy counterfeit of the real thing. I fully understand why it was excluded from the canon due to the obvious departure from the consistent teachings of Christ regarding the Kingdom, the Law and healing.
