The first human recording of
God-like Savior born of Virgin mother and later being Resurrected
from the dead is found in Egypt, 3-4,000 years before Christ. The
Story focuses on Osiris, Isis, and Horus, reputably known as the
original Holy family; the father, the mother, the son.
Horus originates in
Pre-history, we can only date him to Egyptian times because we have
no real records before that period of antiquity. The Egyptian “Book
of Vivifying the Soul Forever” written over 5,000 years ago
contains The Story of the Egyptian Horus and has remarkable
similarities to the Story of Jesus Christ. In fact if you compare the
Egyptian book of knowing the Evolutions, you can see very strong
parallels to the Book of Genesis which came from God to Moses, who
was raised in the household of the Egyptian Pharaoh, and later
became the King of the Jews. Most later religions purporting
Christ-Like saviors have their roots in the Early Egyptian religious
system, which itself dates from an unknown source prior to any
recorded History.
The Egyptian sun god Horus, who predated the
Christ character by thousands of years, shares the following
in common with Jesus:
Horus was born of the virgin Isis-Meri on
December 25th in a cave/manger with his
birth being announced by a star in the East and
attended by three wise men.
His earthly father was named "Seb" ("Joseph"). Seb
is also known as "Geb": "As Horus the Elder he...was
believed to be the son of Geb and Nut." Lewis
Spence, Ancient Egyptian Myths and Legends,
84.
He was of royal descent.
At age 12, he was a child teacher in the Temple, and
at 30, he was baptized, having disappeared for 18
years.
Horus was baptized in the river Eridanus or Iarutana
(Jordan) by "Anup the Baptizer" ("John the
Baptist"), who was decapitated.
He had 12 disciples, two of whom were his
"witnesses" and were named "Anup" and "Aan" (the two
"Johns").
He performed miracles, exorcised demons and raised
El-Azarus ("El-Osiris"), from the dead.
Horus walked on water.
His personal epithet was "Iusa," the "ever-becoming
son" of "Ptah," the "Father." He was thus called
"Holy Child."
He delivered a "Sermon on the Mount" and his
followers recounted the "Sayings of Iusa."
Horus was transfigured on the Mount.
He was killed, buried for three days in a tomb, and
resurrected.
He was also the "Way, the Truth, the Light,"
"Messiah," "God's Anointed Son," the "Son of Man,"
the "Good Shepherd," the "Lamb of God," the "Word
made flesh," the "Word of Truth," etc.
He was "the Fisher" and was associated with the Fish
("Ichthys"), Lamb and Lion.
He came to fulfill the Law.
Horus was called "the KRST," or "Anointed One."
Like Jesus, "Horus was supposed to reign one
thousand years."
