HORUS &
JESUS....SIMILARITIES....WAS HORUS THE "PATTERN" FOR THE LATER
"JESUS CHRIST" OF CHRISTIANITY?
The story of Horus, a major Egyptian God, is told in the Book of
Vivifying the Soul Forever over 3,000 years before the birth of Christ.
The Jesus story in the Bible is in
many places a recycled version of the Horus story. The
comparisons given below prove without a doubt that much in the New Testament is
full of myths and stories recycled from earlier times and made to fit the
various characters of the Bible.

Jesus said he was the way, the truth and the life.

Father, that everyone who beholdeth the Son and believeth in him should have
eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day.
- Horus...I open
the Tuat that I may drive away the darkness. Jesus says I am come a light unto
the world.
- Horus says I am
equipped with thy words O Ra [Father in Heaven] and repeat them to those who
are deprived of breath. These were the words of the Father in heaven. Jesus
says The Father which sent me, he hath given me a commandment, what I should
say and what I should speak. Whatsoever I speak therefore even as the Father
said unto me, so I speak. The word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father's
which sent me."
