Four versions: Skulls of John Chrysostom

Claimed skulls of  St. John Chrysostom is located in the Cathedral in Florence, in a Roman Catholic shrine in Pisa, in Moscow and on Mount Athos in Greece.

The Russian version of the skull of the “saint” arrived in New York for veneration 6th of February 2010.

John Chrysostom (347–407.AD) was Archbishop of Constantinople, and considered an important Early Church Father.

He is recognized by the Eastern Orthodox Church and the Catholic Church as a saint and as a Doctor of the Church.

It is worth noticing that the Roman Catholic Church has admitted that they stole the remains of the Byzantine priest, and took it to Rome. The present Pope returned the stolen bones, explained by wikipedia.

 Most of John’s relics were looted from Constantinople by Crusaders in 1204 and taken to Rome, but some of his bones were returned to the Orthodox on 27 November 2004 by Pope John Paul II.

Neither theft of bones, nor grave looting, seems to be noble acts.

But the battle for the corpse, skull and bones of this archbishop is more grotesque than this example of criminal priests becoming robbers. There are four Churches who claim to have the skull of the same “saint”. One in Russia, one in Greece and not less than two Roman Catholic Churches in Italy.

Let us again read that wikipedia has recorded:

 The skull was kept at the Moscow Kremlin, in the Cathedral of the Dormition of the Mother of God, until 1920, when it was confiscated by the Soviets and placed in the Museum of Silver Antiquities.

  In 1988, in connection with the 1000th Anniversary of the Baptism of Russia, the Head, together with other important relics, was returned to the Russian Orthodox Church and kept at the Epiphany Cathedral, until being moved to the Cathedral of Christ the Saviour after its restoration.

 However, today, the Vatopedi Monastery posits a rival claim to possession of the skull of St. John Chrysostom, and there a skull is venerated by pilgrims to the monastery as that of St John.

Two places in Italy also claim to have the skull of St. John Chrysostom: the Basilica di Santa Maria del Fiore in Florence and the Dal Pozzo chapel in Pisa.

Lets take a look at the other three claimed version of the skull of this man who died more than 1.600 years ago:

The claimed skull of Chrysostom is kept for adoration  inside the Roman Catholic Cathedral of Florence in Italy.
The Greek version of the skull. There is an open door to the “ear”, so the faithful Greek Orthodox can pray.

Exodus 20:5
You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the fathers to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me.

The second Italian version of the skull, is located in a Roman Catholic shrine in Pisa.

 Deuteronomy 4:28
There you will worship man-made gods of wood and stone, which cannot see or hear or eat or smell.

The Russians at least do not scare the children, but put their skulls in proper golden boxes.
The box with the Russian skull has a top opening. It looks a little bit like the surface of the planet Mars.

A major Roman Catholic news agency has reported “miracles’ from one of these skulls. Remarkably not with the two versions found in Roman Catholic shrines.

 Two miraculous cures have been reported in Cyprus as a result of contact with the skull of St. John Chrysostom, according to the Associated Press. Father Paraskevas Agathonos claimed the visiting relic, which normally resides in a monastery in northern Greece, had healed a partially paralyzed teenager and a woman with a broken leg.

 Matthew 24:24
For false Christs and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and miracles to deceive even the elect—if that were possible.

The Russians are trilled that their “holy head” paid New York City a visit in February 2010:

 The sacred head will not be touring America, but will remain at Synod until the final day of its stay, when it will be taken to St. Nicholas Cathedral, the Russian Patriarchal Cathedral a few blocks away.

 The head of St. John Chrysostom is being sent to the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Sign, in New York City, from the Church of Christ the Saviour, in Moscow, for a week, early in February. (2010, February 26).

My comment:

First: We have to give thanks to Jesus the Messiah for exposing all this religious fraud, so people can get a chance to be delivered, to repent and be saved.

Second: It is difficult to use suitable words for this kind of morbid spiritual madness. Only a spirit that has its origin in the bottomless pit, can make priests, bishops, cardinals and Popes fight to gain control of skulls, corpses and bones.

That this war goes on up to this very day, should have been used as an eye opener for all men on the face of the Earth. All seven billion of us.

The Roman Catholic Church claim to be the original, the true “Holy mother Church”. But she does not only adore and venerate skulls in their hundreds. This Church even have double sets of skulls.

The Russian Orthodox and Greek Orthodox “Churches” and members of World Council of Churches (WCC). They do not seem to make much a difference.

What better proof do you need to see that these are religious movements of liars who are involved in shameless fraud?

It is difficult to phantom that the Vatican can “bless” two claimed skulls of the same man, and both of them being located in Roman Catholic “shrines” in Italy.

If you are not able to renounce this horrible wicked and perverted religious movement, I can not help you.  No message of corruption and fraud linked to the Papacy will make you repent, and escape the waiting eternal lake of fire.

There is a judgment coming. The judgment will be both fair and just.

Repent or perish.

Why Jesus of Rome is not Jesus of Nazareth

I have been challenged to explain why I feel the Catholic Jesus is a copy of the true Messiah, Jesus of Nazareth.

The Pope carries a dead «Jesus». He cant even save him self.
The Pope carries a dead «Jesus». He cant even save him self.

That there will be copies is confirmed in the teaching of the Jewish Apostles Paul.

2 Corinthians 11:4
«For if someone comes to you and preaches a Jesus other than the Jesus we preached, or if you receive a different spirit from the one you received, or a different gospel from the one you accepted, you put up with it easily enough».

This is a list of obvious differences between the copy-cat of Rome, and the true Jewish Messiah Jesus of Nazareth.

In regards to Salvation:

Jesus of Nazareth: He saves today

Jesus of Rome: He will have to wait till you enter Purgatory. No surety of salvation before death.

In regards to dominion:

Jesus of Nazareth: He is a Jew, the head over the house of Jacob forever. The King of the Jews.

Jesus of Rome: He is the head over the Roman Catholics.

In regards to glory and honor:

Jesus of Nazareth: Is a jealous God. Do not share His glory with anyone but His Father God.

Jesus of Rome: He do not mind sharing His glory with his mother, saints and madonna’s.

In regards to worship of wood and stone:

Jesus of Nazareth: Is the author of the 2nd commandment, that forbid idols.

Jesus of Rome: He do not mind being presented and worshiped as an idol.

In regards to prayers for the dead:

Jesus of Nazareth: Pray only in His name. Not to the dead.

Jesus of Rome: He tells us to pray to and for the dead, saints and Madonna’s.

In regards to the dead prophet and the risen Lord:

Jesus of Nazareth: No longer on the cross. The empty cross and grave sign of victory.

Jesus of Rome: He do not mind that his followers still keep Him nailed to the cross.

In regards to exclusivity of Salvation:

Jesus of Nazareth: He is the only way to salvation

Jesus of Rome: His followers have started to tell us that that there is salvation in other religions.

In regards to his Vicar on Earth:

Jesus of Nazareth: He appointed the Holy Spirit as His vicar on Earth.

Jesus of Rome: He appointed a Pope as his vicar on Earth.

In regards to exclusivity of use of Holy Father:

Jesus of Nazareth: He represent the God the Holy Father.

Jesus of Rome: He appointed a Pope to be called the Holy Father, a name the Bible reserve to God.

In regards to all followers as priests:

Jesus of Nazareth: His followers are called to be priests in the Royal priesthood.

Jesus of Rome: He can only use priest that is faithful to the Pope.

In regards to the forbidden name of Queen of Heaven:

Jesus of Nazareth: He told through his prophet Jeremiah not to worship the Queen of Heaven.

Jesus of Rome: His Vicar the Pope tells us to keep statues of the Queen of Heaven.

In regards to prayer to his mother:

Jesus of Nazareth: He told us not to pray to his family. Not even his mother.

Jesus of Rome: He demands prayer to his mother.

In regards to him being white or colored:

Jesus of Nazareth: Walked in the sun. Most likely dark complexions.

Jesus of Rome: Is a pale skinned blue eyed European.

In regards to the Jewish people and Israel:

Jesus of Nazareth: Is the Lion of Judah, and the root of Jesse. He is coming back to his own people, back to Jerusalem.

Jesus of Rome: His followers in the Vatican claims the Jews have occupied the Holy land and Jerusalem. No talk of His return.

In regards to His Father God:

pope-with-cross
The Pope present to us a copy-cat Messiah.

Since Jesus of Rome is a «Jesus» on the outside of Biblical truth, He are many times in serious disagreement with his father.

A good example is in regards to all the promises given to the Jewish people, and the restoration of the state of Israel.

Since Jesus of Nazareth said: «I and the Father are one», the copy in Rome is a liar and a deceiver.

Rome teachers blasphemy, and present a perverted gospel.

If you do not repent, and continue to put your trust in the wrong Messiah, you will end up in Hell.

This is the truth.

Bible lesson #2: Catholic Mary was ever virgin. Jewish mother of Jesus had many children

The Pope in Rome claims Mary lived a life without having sex with her husband. The Bible says the Mother of Jesus was a virgin when she gave birth of Jesus, but later had many children.

 

050814-rosaryforPeace233

 

Why not a Bible school on this blogg. You are welcome as a free student. Freely I have received, and freely I will give. The first topic will be:

Was the Jewish mother of Jesus forever virgin?

From the Catechism of the Catholic Church

Paragraph 510

«0 Mary “remained a virgin in conceiving her Son, a virgin in giving birth to him, a virgin in carrying him, a virgin in nursing him at her breast, always a virgin».

In every Catholic mass the faithful says: «Mary, ever virgin».

But the Bible explains this is simply not the truth. The Word of God tells that the Jewish Mother of Jesus had many children. At least five sons and two daughters.

Matthew 13:55-56 (New King James version)
“Isn’t this the carpenter’s son? Isn’t his mother’s name Mary, and aren’t his brothers James, Joseph, Simon and Judas? And His sisters, are they not all with us? Where then did this Man get all these things?”

In this verse his brothers are even mentioned by their names. Also Indirectly in the scripture, the many children of Mary are proven:

Luke 2:44 (New International version)
Thinking he was in their company, they traveled on for a day. Then they began looking for him among their relatives and friends.

A lady with only one child, would never have traveled on for a full day without knowing that her only child was lost or not. If so, this woman would have been the most irresponsible mother of all Jewish mothers.

But a Jewish mother with seven or eight children could easily have lost the overview, and only during a head count have discovered that one of her children were missing.

The Jewish mother of Jesus might have looked like this
The Jewish mother of Jesus might have looked like this

The last example of a mother with many children is the use of the word «firstborn».

Luke 2:7
and she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.

Jesus was the firstborn, not the only child. If he was the only child, the gospel writers would have told us so. Just like in this verse:

Luke 9:38
A man in the crowd called out, “Teacher, I beg you to look at my son, for he is my only child.

The Pope of Rome is not telling us the truth about the Jewish Mother of Jesus. The Bible is the truth.

The Vatican full of dead Popes kept for display

Corpses of dead Popes are kept in the crypt in the Vatican. The body of Pope Celestino V is kept in the open in Central Italy.

The former Pope pray besides the remains of Pope Celestino V.

Catholic worship of corpses, skulls and bones has its origin in the crypt in St. Peters Basilica in the Vatican.

A total of 91 popes are buried in crypts in the grotto in St. Peters Basilica in Rome. This including popes like Innocent IX, Benedicts XII and XV, Pius XI and Paul VI.

But not all the Popes are buried and kept for display inside the Vatican. Pope Celestino is kept in the open of St. Maria of Collemaggio Church in L’Aquila in central Italy. The roof this Church came down during the earthquake on April 6th 2009.

The Pope pray in front of the corpse of a Pope, who died 700 years ago.
The Pope touch the glass coffin, and lead other Catholic priest into worship of the dead Pontiff.

This is the official story of the Pope, who pay “homage” to a dead pope.

Pope Benedict XVI blesses the faithful in front of the remains of Pope Celestine V at the end of a mass in Sulmona, Italy, Sunday, July 4, 2010. The Pontiff had traveled to the central Italian town to pay homage to Celestine V, the 13th-century hermit pontiff who resigned after saying he was not up to the task. Benedict urged the faithful Sunday to learn from Celestine’s sober and simple life. He praised Celestine for his detachment from material things such as money and clothes.

The Pope paied “homage” to the only Pope that has resigned from the Papacy. Not only did he resigned, but he was arrested by the Pope that succeeded him.

Pope Celestine knew he was ill prepared for the papacy, and actually resigned from the Petrine office on December 13, 1294.  Now back to being “Fra Pietro”, he had hoped to return to hermetical life.  But his successor, Pope Boniface VIII, feared that the ex-pope could be used in an attempt to unseat him.  The Pope confined him to a house arrest, and though he managed to escape for a time, he was eventually confined to a tower in Castel Fumone.  There, though not mistreated, he died of an infection from an absess on May 19, 1296.  His remains were transferred to Sta. Maria di Colemaggio in 1317.

This contact between the Pope and a dead Pope, sets the example for worship of corpses, skulls and bones in the Roman Catholic Church.

Did Pope Celestinie V die with his shoes on? The Pope greets the crowed who have already been lead into prayer and worship.
This is the place Pope Celestino V was put up for display. Before the earthquake in central Italy brought his remains down on the floor.

There is absolutely no Bible verse that approve digging up the dead from their grave. Neither is there any Biblical defense for keeping corpses, skulls and bones for display inside Churches and Chapels.

Many Catholics will be surprised, by the high numbers of corpses of Popes, who have been kept inside the Vatican.  But any dead Popes are put on display in Churches in other Italian cities.

We need to investigate this matter, and look at pictures of this pagan practice.  The Papal system has kept more dead persons for display, than Communist Russia ever did in the Kremlin in Moscow.

From Wikipedia:

There are over 100 tombs within St. Peter’s Basilica (extant to various extents), many located in the Vatican grotto, beneath the Basilica. These include 91 popes, St. Ignatius of Antioch, Holy Roman Emperor Otto II, and the composer Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina. Exiled Catholic British royalty James Francis Edward Stuart and his two sons, Charles Edward Stuart and Henry Benedict Stuart, are buried here, having been granted asylum by Pope Clement XI. Also buried here are Maria Clementina Sobieska, wife of James Francis Edward Stuart, Queen Christina of Sweden, who abdicated her throne in order to convert to Catholicism, and Countess Matilda of Tuscany, supporter of the Papacy during the Investiture Controversy. The most recent interment was Pope John Paul II, on April 8, 2005. Beneath, near the crypt, is the recently discovered vaulted fourth-century “Tomb of the Julii”.

Plenty of Popes are kept for display inside the crypt in St. Peter Basillica in the Vatican statehood.

The corpse of pope Paul XXIII looks a litle bit like Santa Claus.
The red dress and the read cap makes this waxed body look very different from other corpses.

This dead Pope is not put for public display. The Vatican priests even offer Mass at the altar, on top of the tomb of “Blessed John XXIII”. The priest who offer the mass, is Dom Louis Marie, Abbot of Le Barroux.

A Catholic mass is offerd, with a corpse of a dead Pope inside the altar.

Not all the dead Popes are put for display inside the Vatican. This is a picture of  the Tomb of St. Pius V in the Church of St. Mary Major.

This dead Pope is put for display on the wall of a Church in Italy.

You can view this photo on this site.

Catholic priests offers a mass and sing hymns in front of the corpse of the Pope.

Tomb of Blessed Pope Gregory X, at the Cattedrale di San Donato, Arezzo:

Pope burried like a King, and kept like an Egyptian mummie in a Catholic Church.
Pope kept like the Communist Russia would keep their leaders inside the Kremlin.

The Incorrupt Relics of St. Athanasios the Great, in the Church of S. Zaccaria, in Venice, Italy.

A dead Pope, denied a place to rest in a tomb of silence. Kept for adoration and worship.
