Trinity vs. Egyption?

Question

ok.. i dont know a lot about this subject that why i am asking.. i have read alot about it but it quite does not fit in my brain.

in christanity we believe that Jesus is god,and son of god...one person 3 personalities or you can say one soul but three different angles to it. ( no offense i dont kno how to say it)

then

in Egyption culture Horace was considered God but they said that Pharoh was Horace on earth in the human form so thats why they believed in divine authority of pharoh. Pharoh's word was word of Horace (god of gods)

sounds familiar??
could christianity have evoluved from egyption? because sound almost the same...with diferent names for people but same concept.

Answer 1

Christianity is a syncretization of several pre-existing myths, including Egyptian paganism. Even the story of Lazarus' resurection is ripped off directly from Egyptian paganism as recorded in pyramid texts long before Jesus was a glimmer in Paul's eye. (only it was Horus instead of Jesus, and el-Osiris was raised instead of Lazarus. El-Osiris is phonetically the same as Lazarus!)

There are othr clues of attempts to placate Egyptian pagans, such as the birth story having Jesus' family flee to Egypt, and the rest of the birth story for that matter, which appeals to those who worshipped the belt of Orion (known as the three wise men in the day).

The parallels reach back even to the temple treasures described in the OT, that precisely match the descriptions of artifacts found in Tut's tomb. There is speculation that Tut is the real life prototype of Jesus. Even the concept of the Christ is Egyptian in origin (known as Kyrast by them).

Answer 2

Christianity evolved from MANY of the popular religions in ancient times. Your sabbat day in SUNday, the old sabbat of the pagans who honor the Sun god. Your holidays are on the same days as many of the egyptian and pagan festivals...and so on and so forth. If you want a little more info, and i'll prolly be screamed at for saying this, but read the Da Vinci Code. True it is a fiction about a fake story based on true history. There's a lot of discussion on the Transmorfigation on religions through history. If I had my copy I could help a little more or give you other references....

Answer 3

321 AD: Edict of Nicea - Emperor Constantine gathered a team of priests to choose which bible to follow. They condemned Arius for his teachings, which stated that Jesus is but a man. Isaac Newton was a follower of Arius.

There's an article in christiantoday.com that tries to explain the trinity and why the Christians have trouble answering the age old question posed by the Muslims: Explain trinity. The author blames the Christians for not reading up on basics of trinity, that every Christian should understand it. He had this to say about it: "Christians, like Muslims, affirm the oneness of God, but they understand that oneness not in mathematical terms (as a unit) but in interpersonal terms (as a unity of relationship)." I still can't understand it, and honestly, I doubt people 2000 years ago could. Surprisingly, at the end he stated:
"Ultimately, we have to admit that the Trinity is a mystery. Even in eternity, we will never comprehend it. But we are called to affirm it and believe it. And we are called to hold it without compromise in a world of religious pluralism."
Contradictory statement? You bet! If Christians aren't expected to understand it, how can they expect it to make sense to others?

Islam reveres Jesus as a great prophet and messenger, but never as a God. If God created Adam from nothing, and Eve from Adam, can he not create a man from only a woman?

God needs not not companion, son nor daughter, friend nor wife, for He is self-sufficient.

God promised Abraham, that he would make a great nation out of the descendants of Ishmael. God's word never goes unbroken, for he surely has given Muhammad, the descendant of Ishmael, the greatest message of all time.

The following statement was never made in any book to any prophet up until the final pilgrimage by Muhammad to Mecca, this Quranic verse: "This day have I perfected your religion for you, completed My favor upon you and have chosen for you Islam as your religion." - Qur'an Ch 5 Verse 3.

Equally poweful verse from the Qur'an stating that Muhammad is the seal (the last) of the prophets.
"Muhammad is not the father of any of your men, but he is the Messenger of God and the Seal of the prophets. And God is ever Knower of all things." - Qur'an: "The Allies", Ch 33. verse 40.

Good of you to notice. A story told is rarely new. It is often a rehashing of previously known storytelling or myth. When stories travel around the world cultrual twists are added, it's an interesting phenonenon like the game of telephone. To investigate this idea is not meant to topple, replace or belittle faith in whatever your beliefs are. Rather I think the universality of truth is more the amazing part of that truth.

Answer 5

You are correct. Roman Catholics believe in the trinity, as in, God in 3 persons. The Egyptians believed in idols and many gods or false gods.
This is where it came from. The Protestants protested this practice. We came out of the Catholic church's way of thinking because it was too idolistic. They pray to Mary and exalt her to a queen of heaven over Jesus, who IS God. God is the Almighty, God's word is made flesh now in Jesus, and God's holy spirit is God's works, or what He does. All are God.
Are we separate persons from our words or our spirits? Why do people seem to think that God is different? Aren't we created in His image?

Answer 6

There are many relgions who have a "Jesus" type of prophet too... should we just throw Jesus out? Almost every other religion also has a "Creator"... should we throw God out because He sounds similar to another god? These comparisons mean nothing. God knows who Im speaking to when I pray, He doesn't have an Identity crisis.

Answer 7

I am not a christian but is this really true. hmmm. interesting. I am aware of the Mithra concept which is the same too. just didn't realize pharoah was a son of god..


I guess he drowned for the sin of man.. :)

I couldn't resist thought it was funny.

Answer 8

Horus, not Horace.

Everything in Christianity is borrowed from Judaism and Paganism. Even the mythology.

Answer 9

the two had basic messages of discarding the complicated dogmas of their parent's faith and specializing in honestly being a greater clever guy or woman. the two had human beings coming after them that re-complexified what they mentioned. regrettably, their similarities are lost on maximum cutting-element Christians who view their very own dogma as some thing that could desire to take transport of their timeless loyalty, as adverse to a reasoned set of policies that could desire to make sense (and that i purely factor to Christians using fact Buddhists do not tend to assert issues like "there's no similarity").

Answer 10

The trinity might have evolved from Egypt, but not Christianity
