Don't Trust In the Arm of Flesh-Do Your Own Research

"They have cradled you in custom. They have primed you with their teaching. They have soaked you with convention through and through. They have put you in a showcase. You're a credit to their teaching. But don't you hear the truth? It's calling you."

Temple of the Cross

The Temple of the Cross

The Native American Christian


Alma 21:45 Yea, all those who were the true believers in Christ, took upon them, gladly, the name of Christ, or Christians, as they were called, because of their belief in Christ, who should come; and therefore, at this time, Moroni prayed that the cause of the Christians, and the freedom of the land might be favored.

Matthew 15:24
 

But He ( Jesus ) answered them and said, I am not sent but unto the LOST SHEEP of the house of the house of Israel


Palenque Mexico's Temple of the Cross Tablet

Ever wondered of the Book of Mormon was fact of fiction? The ravings of a crazy man named Joseph Smith, who fabricated a book to start his own church, or could there be truth in what Joseph Smith claimed and the Book of Mormon story?


Is there scientific evidence for the Book of Mormon? Evidence existing which shows Joseph Smith neither was crazy or raving when he wrote about a Native American Christian people who once existed upon the American Continent long before the advent of Hernando Cortez or Christopher Columbus.


Here are photo's of Native American Crosses, from Native American Temples, Pyramids and other religious structrues of ancient time. Time which predates modern American History. Happy viewing!

John 10:16 KJV 
" other sheep I have not of this fold then also must I bring "  

The Temple of the Cross, to coin the phrase, " is an inconvenient truth ", which many are not comfortable with. It means we don't know our history. It means somebody with lots of power has not been frank with the American people, someone has told us a lie concerning the Native American people, concerning their history, their origins and who they are. Jesus said, " I am not sent but unto the LOST SHEEP of the house of the house of Israel" Matthew 15:24... 

Christ came to save the Lost Sheep of the house of Israel. While this is a simplistic view, if archaeolgists find Native American crosses, does this not make them descendants of the House of Israel?
Ezekiel 34:6;11;12

6My sheep wandered through all the mountains, and upon every high hill: yea, my flock was scattered upon all the face of the earth, and none did search or seek after them.



11For thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I, even I, will both search my sheep, and seek them out. 



12As a shepherd seeketh out his flock in the day** that he is among his sheep that are scattered; so will I seek out my sheep, and will deliver them out of all places where they have been scattered in the cloudy and dark day.

The Central Tablet of the Temple of the Cross records the birth of the deity Muwaan Mat, recounts the beginning of the present creation, records a dynastic list beginning with the legendary ruler U K'ix Kan, and concludes with the accession of the first Kan B'ahlam on 10 Eb' 0 Wo' (April 572).
The following transcription and translation correspond to the glyph blocks between A16-F17 and P1-U17 from the Central Tablet of the Temple of the Cross. Addition analysis and a transliteration will be available in the Spring of 2005.

Alma 21:131 And thus he was preparing to support their liberty, their lands, their wives, and their children, and their peace, and that they might live unto the Lord their God, and that they might maintain that which was called by their enemies the cause of Christians.

3 Nephi 4:74 And it came to pass that in the ending of the thirty and fourth year, behold I will shew unto you that the people of Nephi who were spared, and also those who had been called Lamanites, who had been spared, did have great favors shewn unto them, and great blessings poured out upon their heads, insomuch that soon after the ascension of Christ into heaven, he did truly manifest himself unto them, shewing his body unto them, and ministering unto them;

MAYAN PYRAMID BARES TOMB OF EGYPTION TYPE

( New York Times - Chicago Tribune Dispatch - December 28, 1952 )

Mexico City Dec. 27 - Remarkable parallels with the burial customs of ancient Egypt have been found in a newly discovered Mayan tomb at Palenque Mexico. The cover of the tomb with the cross and undeciphered hierglyphics pictured above is one solid slab, twelve feet long, seven feet wide, and one foot thick, estimated to weigh six tons. Palenque anciently had a population of more than 100,000. Palenque is the modern name; the ancient name of the city is not known. 

NEW YORK TIMES MAYAN CROSS SARCOPHOGUS LID




In 1952 Ruz Lhuillier was excavating the staircase of the Pyramid Temple when he found a sealed passageway that led to the burial crypt and sarcophagus of King Pakul. This was the first burial crypt found in Central America, let alone in a pyramid, and fueled a debate that the Incas were in some way connected to Egypt. The lid of the sarcophagus is the depiction of King Pakul.

Alberto Ruz Lhuillier (27 January 1906 – 25 August 1979) was a Mexican archaeologist. He specialized in pre -Colombian Mesoamerican archaeology and is well-known for leading the National Institute of Anthropology and History (INAH) excavations at the Maya site of Palenque, where he found the tomb of the Maya ruler, Pakal. Ruz Lhuillier is sometimes referred to as the "Hitchcock of Archaeology".

Did King Solomon’s Navy Discover America?

Story By Israel National News
Mystery Mountain, Los Lunas, New Mexico.  That’s where a fascinating find was discovered with the Hebrew inscription of the Ten Commandments.  What is amazing about this find, is that the ten commandments were written in a Hebrew script that is so ancient, it was last used around and up to the Babylonian expulsion.  This means it was probably written between 2,500-3,000 years ago!  How did this script, as well as the text of the ten commandments wind up in New Mexico, so many centuries ago?

THE LOS LUNAS, NEW MEXICO,DECALOGUE 

Exodus 20:2–17
Deuteronomy 5:6–21


Thomas F. McDaniel, Ph.D.
Professor Emeritus
The Eastern Baptist Theological Seminary
Wynnewood, Pennsylvania


While much attention has been given recently to the legal
battles from Alabama to Wisconsin over the presence of
granite monuments and bronze plaques of the Decalogue on
public property,1 little attention has been given to world’s
oldest Hebrew inscription of the Ten Commandments which
turned up in New Mexico in the nineteenth century—a replica
of which has yet to be made. This Decalogue was inscribed in
Hebrew (using a quasi-Phoenician script) on the flat face of
a large basalt boulder on a mesa now known as “Mystery
Mountain” or “Hidden Mountain,” three miles west of Los
Lunas. Given its antiquity, the monumental bolder is of some
significance for early American history.
In 1949, Robert H. Pfeiffer of the Harvard University recognized
that the inscription was an abbreviated form of the
Decalogue; and since then a number of other scholars, including
Harvard Professor Barry Fell (1976: 310), have confirmed
the identification. My inspection of the inscription on site in
1983 and a comparison of the script used on the bolder
Decalogue with other early Northwest Semitic scripts led me
to conclude that the “Mystery Mountain” inscription is not
just centuries old but could possibly be pre-Columbian or
even pre-Christian.

Evidence Native Americans Knew About Jesus Christ Before the Spanish Inquisition of South America.
This Blog is about Jesus Christ. About the Book of Mormon which has been much maligned by men who never heard or saw the truth. Even by some who don't want the truth seen by you or I. We of the western world need to open our eyes. We must wake up. We must believe God is real. We must begin to realized we cannot fit God into a small little box with a pretty red bow, only to open it on Sunday so we may have our small controled dose of God. God is everywhere. Therefore His people will be everywhere. Let's find the evidence of the other places Jesus Christ visited besides Jerusalem... The above photo comes from Monte Alban Mexico. The above cross in similitude to an Egyption Coptic Cross. What connections did Egypt and ancient Mexico have?

Search All Things, Prove All Things True.

Dear reader. To read text articals pertaining Book of Mormon archaeology, scroll half way down.

If the Book of Mormon truly is an ancient history of America, we can search the Book of Mormon, then search archaeology to discover if the Book of Mormon is accurate. 1 Thessalonian's 5:21 states" Prove all things; hold fast that which is good". Only a fool does not test his or her Christian belief to see if it withstands scrutiny and " tough well reasoned questioning". He or she who does not test or question everything in life, religion or career has missed the boat, and the very meaning of life. Which is to find the better way spiritually and temporally, holding fast to that which is good.

THE BIBLICAL CHRIST CARRYING A SHEPHERDS STAFF

THE BIBLICAL CHRIST CARRYING A SHEPHERDS STAFF
In the Book of Mormon, 3 Nephi testifies Christ came to America. Christ, in Gospel of Luke is asked a question by the Apostle Peter most people miss. Peter ask Christ who He was, Christ's reply was, who do YOU/THEY say that I am. Luke 9:20. Native Americans record a white god who walked among them. When asked who He was, His reply was to ask, WHO DO YOU SAY THAT I AM? In ( 1964 ) Pierre Honore wrote a book who's title speaks for it'self. In Quest of the Fair God Pierre Honore illustrates a white God among the Native America, who was named many different names where ever He went. Mr. Honore says, " The legend of a particular white God has survived to our day from all ancient civilizations of Central and South America. The Toltecs and Aztecs of Mexico called Him Quetzalcoatl, the Incas called Him Viracocha To the Maya he was called Kulkulcan who brought them all their laws, and also their script, and was worshiped like a God by the entire people. To the Chibchas, he was Bochica, the white mantle of light. To the Aymara of Peru he was Hyustus, and to this day they will tell you he was fair and had blue eyes. Everywhere in the Indian states of Central and South America the legend of the White God is known, and always ends in the same way. The White God left his people with a solemn promise that he would one day come back."

A Hebrew People In America?

Can there be Hebrews in America? What does the Bible say?



Matthew 15:24



But He ( Jesus ) answered them and said, I am not sent but unto the LOST SHEEP of the house of the house of Israel



Jesus told us He must minister to Israelites " other sheep I have not of this fold then also must I bring ", ( John 10:16 KJV ).



Ezekiel 34:6;11;12-13 declares:



6My sheep wandered through all the mountains, and upon every high hill: yea, my flock was scattered upon all the face of the earth, and none did search or seek after them.



11For thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I, even I, will both search my sheep, and seek them out.



12As a shepherd seeketh out his flock in the day** that he is among his sheep that are scattered; so will I seek out my sheep, and will deliver them out of all places where they have been scattered in the cloudy and dark day.



** ( in the day means during Christ earthly ministry 2000 years ago )



13And I will bring them out from the people, and gather them from the countries, and will bring them to their own land, and feed them upon the mountains of Israel by the rivers, and in all the inhabited places of the country.



For the Book of Mormon to be a valid history of an ancient people long dead, there must be Biblical evidence such a people exist. The words of Christ and Ezekiel confirm such a people are scattered world wide.
