THERE WAS A GENESIS CHRISTIANITY. IT BROUGHT INTO BEING THE ROMAN STATE CHURCH; AND FOR THE SAME REASON, THE CHURCH HAS DONE ITS BEST TO HIDE ITS BIRTH.
WHY SHOULD THE CHURCH BE ASHAMED OF THAT KNOWLEDGE? IT SHOULD BE PROUD TO HAVE THE STORY KNOWN.
WE'VE SEARCHED FOR SEVENTY YEARS IN ANCIENT RECORDS TO DISCOVER THE STORY OF THE BIRTH OF THE CHURCH. IT APPEARS THAT CONSTANTINE “FATHERED” ITS BIRTH, THEN PUT THE WEALTH AND POWER OF HIS EMPIRE BEHIND IT TO MAKE IT SUCCEED.
WITH THE GENESIS OF CHRISTIANITY AND THE BIRTH OF THE CHURCH CAME THE NEED OF ANCIENT WRITINGS TO FORM A FOUNDATION. THERE HAD TO BE A FOUNDATION, AND THIS BROUGHT INTO BEING THE BOOK CALLED THE HOLY BIBLE.
