The Truth About The Gospels 

Dr. Bart Ehrman paradoxically and correctly states that the best of the Greek versions of the Gospels were (1) written thirty to forty years after the crucifixion; (2) by authors who did not know the man Jesus; (3) and the historical account of each Gospel contradicts the other Gospels.  And paradoxically, he is correct.  A paradox is when two opposing truths are equally true, and can only be justified through a higher third-reality that merges the opposing truths into One -- i.e., the original Gospels were (1)  written in Hebrew Characters (see The Original Spiritual Language Of The Gospels http://OriginalGospel.Ebionite.com#OriginalLanguage ); (2) they are not historical accounts; (3) they are not designed to instruct and teach; (4) they are designed to develop the person's inward attributes of mind that enables the person to begin to tap into their inner Source of Knowledge as explored at The Purpose Of The Scriptures http://GospelCosmology.Ebionite.com#PurposeOfTheScriptures .  Thus, to even beginning to understand the purpose of the scriptures, we are presented with what can be portrayed as the enigma of Human Consciousness that first must be understood: (1) Is the mind of an infant empty and in need of being taught the wisdom of man; or (2) does the infant possess an inner Source of Knowledge that is Superior to the wisdom of this world, and must be developed to permit the child to tap into this inner Source of Knowledge.  But, in the case of the Gospels, there is still a third reality that Bart Ehrman and other modern biblical scholars and authorities have not even begun to understand -- i.e.,  quoting the words of author and visionary Philip K. Dick who developed the ability to recall his Soul's life as a first century Christian, where he wrote with respect to the original disciples of Jesus that: "Christ ...taught his followers how to enter the kingdom while still alive, where other mystery religions only bring about amnesis: knowledge of it at the 'other time' in 'the other realm,' not here. He causes it to come here, and is the living agency to the Sole Good God (i.e. the Logos)."  What Philip Dick is stating is that Jesus was able to go beyond the process of learning from a person's past life experiences ("knowledge of it at the 'other time' in 'the other realm"), and he (Jesus) was able to teach his disciples how to actually enter the inner Kingdom while still physically alive in the body.  And perhaps the most important enigma of the equation is the reason why Jesus taught his disciples how to fulfill the Law of God within their own body and mind -- as explored at The Law Of The Gospels http://TheLawOfTheGospels.com .   

What this means is that the Gospels are not about the historical accounts about a man named Jesus.  But rather, about accounts of the person's own consciousness that enable the person to develop all the attributes of higher-mind that enables them to become all that is personified in the name Yeshua/Joshua/Jesus, and gain entrance into the inner Kingdom while still alive in the physical body.  Which means that the twelve disciples are not twelve men who were followers of Jesus -- but rather, the twelve spheres of mind that is portrayed in the Tree of Life (see Tree Of Life http://TreeOfLife.Nazirene.org ).  And the most important knowledge necessary to gain entrance into the Kingdom within the person, is the knowledge of how to fulfill the (Natural) Laws within the person's own mind and being.  Quoting from The Esoteric Gospel Teachings http://TheLawOftheGospels.com#EsotericGospelTeachings : 

When Jesus accused the leaders of the Jews of throwing away the Key of Knowledge -- i.e., "Woe to you experts in the law! For you have taken away the key of knowledge; you did not enter yourselves, and you hindered those who were entering” (Luke 11:52) -- it is important to understand the source and type of knowledge he accused the Jews of throwing away. The word Knowledge that was being referenced to is translated from the Greek word Gnosis, as seen in the Greek Interlinear where it shows "knowledge" in this verse is translated from the word "gnosis" at https://biblehub.com/interlinear/luke/11-52.htm  . Gnosis, from a biblical perspective is defined as: "Gnosis refers to knowledge based on personal experience or perception. In a religious context, gnosis is mystical or esoteric knowledge based on direct participation with the divine." The word Gnosis then indicates Spiritual Knowledge that is revealed or taught to the person directly from the Divine Mind within them. This Divinely Revealed Spiritual Knowledge cannot be read literally in the writings of man -- it cannot be literally written in scriptures or religious writings -- it cannot be taught by a teacher or rabbi -- because it can only be taught to the person individually by the Divine Mind whose thinking and mindset has been purified and transformed, and is capable of receiving the Higher Spiritual Knowledge/Gnosis that can more correctly be portrayed as the Divine Manna or Sacred Knowledge/Gnosis of the Kingdom.

When Jesus stated to the Jews that the Kingdom would never come outwardly, because it is "within you" (Luke 17:20-21), this is "...knowledge based on personal experience ...based on direct participation with the divine" within the Mind of the disciple, as the person begins to open what is portrayed as the "narrow gate", and experiences the Kingdom coming within them -- i.e., "Then Jesus said to them, Truly I tell you, there are some standing here who will not taste death until they see the kingdom of God arrive with power" (Mark 9:1). Which is why Peter acknowledged the coming of the Kingdom when he stated: ”looking for and hastening the coming of the day of God” (2 Pet 3:12). Which provokes the question: How could the believers in that time-frame of the first-century, hasten or speed up the coming of the Kingdom, if it was coming externally in the outer world? Yet, in every generation, doomsday prophets have predicted Armageddon and the coming of the Kingdom in their lifetime. That modern Christians continue to preach their End Times doctrines, is because they are as the Jews who threw away the Key of Knowledge/Gnosis -- which is the application of the Gospels within them.

If the Spiritual Knowledge could not be read literally in the scriptures where it could be learned and discerned by the Jewish scholars, then what is indicated is the fact that Jesus taught that there is an esoteric meaning to the scriptures that is not apparent or even understood by reading the literal text of the scriptures. And if the meaning of the scriptures could be simply understood by reading the text, then Jesus never would have portrayed the leaders of the Jews as the "spawn of the devil" who threw away the Key of Knowledge/Gnosis. And this is demonstrated when Jesus said to the Jews: "Why do you misunderstand what I am saying? It is because your spiritual ears are deaf and you are unable to hear the truth of My word" (John 8:43 Amplified Version). As to why the Jews could not understand the spiritual teachings and concepts, Jesus explained: "You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out his desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, refusing to uphold the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, because he is a liar and the father of lies" (John 8:43-44).

Jesus did not come to be worshiped -- i.e., "Good master, what good shall I do that I may have life everlasting?" Jesus rejected being called "good master" -- as seen when Jesus answered him: "And Jesus said to him, Why do you call me good? No one is good except God alone" (Luke 18:19). Which means that Jesus came to provide the Key of Knowledge/Gnosis that would enable the lost prodigal sons to open the inner "narrow gate" -- as seen in his words: "...you did not enter yourselves, and you hindered those who were entering” into the Kingdom, and return to their Heavenly Father. Which provokes the question: What if you worship Jesus and throw away the Key of Knowledge/Gnosis -- rejecting the Message and the body of essential knowledge/gnosis as hearsay -- and in worshiping Jesus you are obstructing those who were attempting to enter as the Jews did -- portraying those who seek the esoteric knowledge as heretics -- then the god you are worshiping is in fact the Devil -- i.e., "You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out his desires...".

In the same way that the Jews could not comprehend the Mysteries of the Kingdom because they threw away the Key of Knowledge, the Christians in their worldly carnal misinterpretation of the Gospel teachings, rejected even the sacred body of Knowledge that Jesus taught. And this fact is demonstrated throughout most of the Christian world where the word Gnosis is condemned as heresy -- and from a faith-based Christian perspective, is to be rejected. So, what this means is that Jesus accused the Jews who he portrayed as "...experts in the law", of throwing away the Key to acquire Gnosis -- which means that both Christianity and Judaism should be religions that seek to acquire Spiritual Knowledge or Gnosis that is not presented in the literal text of the scriptures where even those who are "experts in the law" remain blind to the spiritual meaning -- which Spiritual Knowledge can be portrayed as the Divine Manna of the Kingdom. In the case of modern Christians, they reject even seeking Knowledge/Gnosis -- they remain totally ignorant of using the Key of Knowledge to open the inner "narrow gate" to the Kingdom -- and they slam the door for those seeking to enter. Which means that modern Christianity is representative of Gospel Apostasy that rejects the teachings of Jesus, and opponents of Christ. Therefore, the question must be asked: Would Jesus praise Christians for rejecting the Spiritual Knowledge he came to impart to mankind? Hosea 4:6 warns that Christians will be rejected and -- "...destroyed for lack of knowledge." Isn't this the rejection of Christ by the modern Christian?

Like the leaders of the Jews, so long as Bart Ehrman continues to throw away the Key of Knowledge by interpreting the scriptures outwardly and historically, he will remain incapable of comprehending the meaning and purpose of the Gospels.  So long as Bart Ehrman continues to look for the historical Christ, instead of the Anointing/Christing within his own mind, he will remain totally alienated from the Source of Knowledge/Gnosis within him.  And because he condemns and rejects what he possesses no spiritual understanding of, he will continue to "...hinder those who were entering”, and he will  remain the ultimate apostate to the Spiritual Law and the Kingdom within him.  To those who throw away the Key of Knowledge by reading the scriptures outwardly and historically, Jesus said: "How terrible it will be for you experts in religious law! For you hide the key to knowledge from the people. You don't enter the Kingdom yourselves, and you prevent others from entering" (Luke 11:52). Thus, in understanding these words spoken to the Pharisees, the questions must be asked: How did the Pharisees and Jewish authorities "...hide the key to knowledge from the people"? Why did Jesus condemn the leaders of the Jews for failing to enter the Kingdom themselves? -- i.e., "...You don't enter the Kingdom yourselves"! And how did the religious leaders of the Jews "...prevent others from entering?" In further clarification, the TEV version of the this verse states: “How terrible for you teachers of the Law! You have kept the key that opens the door to the house of knowledge; you yourselves will not go in, and you stop those who are trying to go in!” (Luke 11:52 TEV). Thus, the scriptures when properly used and turned within your own mind, have the ability to "open the [inner] door to the House of Knowledge" -- and their outward interpretations whereby they seek the Kingdom to come outwardly (see The End Times - Armageddon/Rapture - The Coming Of The Kingdom http://TreeOfLife.Nazirene.org#EndTimes  ), inhibits believers from "going in [the House of Knowledge]" -- and by teaching the people their outward interpretations, they inhibited the community of believers from entering the Kingdom as Jesus taught.
