He was the son of God sent from Heaven as a savior. He performed miracles including raising the dead, healing the blind and casting out evil spirits. He went to Jerusalem, was condemned by Roman authorities, and eventually was assumed back to Heaven after leaving a new dispensation. His name was Jes...no, he was Apollonius of Tyana, one of the most overlooked, prodigious figures of antiquity that might have been the precursor for the Orthodox Messiah. Special Guest-- Acharya S., author of 'The Christ Conspiracy', 'Suns of God' & 'Jesus Who?'. Topics Discussed: --The life and times of this first century miracle-working, wandering sage, religious reformer who had Imperial Temples built in his honor and was wined and dined from Emperors in Rome to Brahmins in India. --Not only the striking parallels between Apollonius and Jesus, but the just as striking parallels between Apollonius and Paul of Tarsus. --Evidence pointing that after Marcion came back from Antioch to Rome with the Gospel of Luke and the Pauline Letters, what he originally had retrieved was nothing more than The Gospel of Apollonius of Tyana. --Could Apollonius also be the original author of the Epistle to The Hebrews? --The Orthodox Church spent volumes of paper and energy condemning the Classic Gnostics, Manicheans, Jewish Christians, Pagan philosophers and their gods, Simon Magus and Marcion; but why is there an almost complete silence and cover up when it comes to Apollonius of Tyana, a character who was a worldwide celebrity in the first century? --Acharya's views on astrotheology, mythology, and the virus that is Orthodox Christianity. --An eerie thread starting with Paul and Apollonius, leading back through Pythagoras and all the way to Orpheus. It's a daring bridge we cross, my Truthseekers, but regardless of what you think the point of fact is that Apollonius of Tyana has been a missing piece of several puzzles in understanding the Esoteric and early Christianity. And certainly the historical Jesus of Nazareth.
