In one of the YouTube exchanges of opinions that more often
than not ends up in name calling; the arguments was – the Dead Sea Scroll have
vindicated Christianity. I wonder if these YouTube marauders know what they are
talking about. I know for sure at least I thought I knew for sure that the Dead
Sea scroll has nothing to do with Christianity. It’s an ancient manuscript of
the Hebrew Bible hidden by its owners in many caves in Al Qumran, Palestine
more than 2,000 years ago. Carbon dating of the manuscripts put it at 150 BCE –
68 ACE (A.D.). Nothing in the 85,000 pieces of torn manuscript mentioned about
Jesus, Christianity or the New Testament but maybe I was wrong. I wanted to
know more…
After many hours of watching documentaries and reading – I
realized that the Dead Sea scroll is a Dragon slayer that will kill
Christianity. The Dominican monks who studied it for more than 30 years keeping
it away from Jewish scholars couldn’t find any earth shaking connections with
Jesus and the New Testament. They finally opened it in 1990 to the world of
scholarly research.
The “teacher of righteousness” was the leader and possibly
founder of the Essenes; a fundamentalist group of Jews who owned the library
that included biblical scriptures better known as the Dead Sea scrolls.
Although it could not be ascertained how the teacher of righteousness died in
the hands of the ruling Jewish hierarchy; many believe that he was among the
800 crucified by the wicked priest in 63 BCE shortly before Palestine was
conquered by the Roman legions.
Although the absence of Jesus maybe ignored quietly; learned
Christians who are true seekers of truth many of who have already left the
faith may find the “Teacher of Righteousness” earth shaking proof of Jesus
being a myth. I wonder if Paul and his bunch of Jew conspirators who founded
Christianity were remnant members of the “Essenes” who resurrected the teacher
of righteousness by creating a myth in the person of Jesus.
Christian scholars continue to find and maintain without
proof that Jesus although his name was not mentioned anywhere in the scrolls
had somehow something to do with the scrolls. Some even believe that the name Joshua
mentioned few times in the scroll was Jesus; the name ‘Jesus Christ’ being a
title not a name. Many Christians are now becoming more Jewish than Christian
by saying Jews and Christians worship the same God; something Jews who hate
Jesus will find laughable. For Christians to come to terms with the Jewish
religion where Jesus belonged; they must give up the notion that Jesus is God
or the son of the God. For Christians to worship the same God that Jesus
worshiped while he walked among men; they should form a new religion, become a
Jew or become a Muslim.
There are many interesting documentaries of the “Dead Sea
Scroll” you will find on YouTube particularly the apocalyptic prophecies; a
battle between the sons of light and the sons of darkness.
