Should we use E.A. Wallis Budge hieroglyphic transliterations?

Don’t let people tell you that Wallis Budge transliterations are inaccurate.  There’s more to the story…

Excerpted from Wikipedia:

“…Budge was also a prolific author, and he is especially remembered today for his works on ancient Egyptian religion and his hieroglyphic primers. Budge’s works on Egyptian religion were unique in that he maintained that the religion of Osiris had emerged from an indigenous African people: “There is no doubt”, he said of Egyptian religions in Osiris and the Egyptian Resurrection (1911), “that the beliefs examined herein are of indigenous origin, Nilotic or Sundani in the broadest signification of the word, and I have endeavoured to explain those which cannot be elucidated in any other way, by the evidence which is afforded by the Religions of the modern peoples who live on the great rivers of East, West, and Central Africa … Now, if we examine the Religions of modern African peoples, we find that the beliefs underlying them are almost identical with those Ancient Egyptian ones described above. As they are not derived from the Egyptians, it follows that they are the natural product of the religious mind of the natives of certain parts of Africa, which is the same in all periods.”

Budge’s contention that the religion of the Egyptians was essentially identical to the religions of the people of northeastern and central Africa was regarded by his colleagues as impossible, since all but a few followed Flinders Petrie in his contention that the culture of Ancient Egypt was derived from an invading Caucasian “Dynastic Race” which had conquered Egypt in late prehistory and introduced the Pharaonic culture.”

“…Though his books remain widely available, translation accuracy has improved in detail, along with significant revisions in dating, since Budge’s day. The common writing style of his era—a lack of clear distinction between opinion and incontrovertible fact—is no longer fashionable in scholarly works.”

Using satellite geography to redates the Egyptian timeline of the Giza Plateau.

Using satellite geography we can now accurately re-date the construction of the Giza Plateau; erected during the 4th dynasty of the Old Kingdom to occurring approximately 37,000 years ago. This is done by measuring the time it took for the Nile River to migrate away from the causeways of the Giza Plateau (Reference: The Pyramid Code documentary created by Carmen Boulter). A far cry from the 2613 BC. year date given to us by 19th century Egyptologists who penned their errant works by candlelight.  This also answers the puzzling question of how were the large cut stones were moved from the quarry to the construction site? Simply on a barge along the Nile of which at the time was at the base of the causeways of which are now miles away.

This revelation should draw into question others ancient dates as well ex: The Nubian Mirs which are taught today to be “younger” than the ancient beginnings of the Egyptian civilization even though ancient Nubia is closer to #LakeVictoria of which is the beginning point of the Nile river of which was/is the life blood for these civilizations.

Revered Egyptologist Wallis Budge wrote:

“There is no doubt”, he said of Egyptian religions in Osiris and the Egyptian Resurrection (1911), “that the beliefs examined herein are of indigenous origin, Nilotic or Sundani in the broadest signification of the word, and I have endeavoured to explain those which cannot be elucidated in any other way, by the evidence which is afforded by the Religions of the modern peoples who live on the great rivers of East, West, and Central Africa … Now, if we examine the Religions of modern African peoples, we find that the beliefs underlying them are almost identical with those Ancient Egyptian ones described above. As they are not derived from the Egyptians, it follows that they are the natural product of the religious mind of the natives of certain parts of Africa, which is the same in all periods.”  

Whereas his colleague Flinders Petrie wrote that the culture of Ancient Egypt was derived from an invading Caucasian “Dynastic Race” which had conquered Egypt in late prehistory and introduced the Pharaonic culture.

It was Petrie's thesis that was concerted, thus they had to ignore the obvious and rewrite time-lines to suit their innate, egotistical fantasy of "European" Egyptian glory.

The dark skin Messiah

Above is a photo of a Young man who is a Hebrew from Ethiopia.

Ok,

The world debates the question: "What race was the Messiah Jesus?"  But the answer is clearly laid out in your New Testament.

Let's check it out.. 

1. Act 13:1

¶ Now there were in the church that was at Antioch certain prophets and teachers; as Barnabas, and Simeon that was called Niger, and Lucius of Cyrene, and Manaen, which had been brought up with Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.

2. Niger of course in Latin defines the word black.

"The etymology of the word 'niger' is from the Latin word for 'black'. In botanical nomenclature, where the species name is niger, this indicates that some aspect of the organism is black."

3. Simeon was the brother of Jesus

Matthew 13:55: "Is not this the carpenter's son? is not his mother called Mary? and his brethren, James, and Joses, and Simon, and Judas?"

Mark 6:3: "Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, the brother of James, and Joses, and of Juda, and Simon? and are not his sisters here with us? And they were offended at him."

4. So, if Simon (Simeon) was called Niger meaning black and is the brother of Jesus then guess what?  Jesus is black too!

Here's a modern day photo of what Jesus who's true name is Y'shua Ben Yosef probably looked like.

Above is a photo of a Young man who is a Hebrew from Ethiopia.

Genesis 1:2

Gen 1:2 "And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness [was] upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters."

So, according to the bible the earth was created before the Sun?

Here are the Actual Facts:
Age of the Earth: 4.54 billion years
Age of the Sun: 4.57 billion years

The Sun is 3 MILLION YEARS older than the earth.

The bible is in error. 

There was no darkness or void before the creation of Earth. 

There was LIGHT!

THE HENNUAAT

(The Shams : Deu 33:26 [There is] none like unto the God of Jeshurun, [who] rideth
upon the heaven [שמים shamayim] in thy help, and in his excellency on the sky.)

Tamarean glyph of the Hennu boat sailing toward either dawn or dusk.

The Mothership known as Bennu (aka Nibiru) sends out it's smaller ships called "Hennuaat" [plural] (Shams - On High) to select the chosen (in sets of 50) to travel threw 12 check points beyond the constellation Orion and eventually back to the tri-star solar system; Ilyuwn [Illiyin] (where records are kept) and the planet of the providers; Rizq (Al Razzaaqu).

"I am the bennu bird which is in Annu, and I am the keeper of the volume of the book of things which are and of things which shall be." :prt m hrw 'Coming Forth by Day' plate VII

"I go in like the Hawk, and I come forth like the Bennu, the Morning Star of Ra; I am the Bennu which is in Annu" :prt m hrw 'Coming Forth by Day' The chapter of performing the transformation into a hawk of gold. From the Papyrus of Nu, British Museum, No. 10,477, sheet 10 The chancellor-in-chief, Nu, triumphant, saith: "I have risen, I have risen like a mighty hawk--of gold--that cometh forth from his egg; I fly and I alight like the hawk which hath a back four cubits wide, and the wings of which are Eke unto the mother-of-emerald of the south. I have come forth from the interior of the Sektet boat, and my heart hath been brought unto me from the mountain of the east. I have alighted upon the Atet boat, and those who were dwelling in their companies have been brought unto me, and they bowed low in paying homage unto me and in saluting me with cries of joy. I have risen, I have gathered myself together like the beautiful hawk of gold, which hath the head of a Bennu bird, and Ra entereth in day by day to hearken unto my words; I have taken my seat among those first-born gods of Nut. I am established, and the divine Sekhet-hetep is before me, I have eaten therein, I have become a khu therein, I have an abundance therein--as much as I desire--the god Nepra hath given to me my throat, and I have gained the mastery over that which guardeth--or belongeth to--my head."

Are you preparing to get on the Hennuaat? What should I do? Your seat on the Hennu has been made just for you, but you must fit in it. You should be fit and healthy. Drink plenty of water, eat raw foods, fruits and vegetables, and exercise. Make Pa Ashutaat daily and read & study the sacred Nuwaubic doctrine.

Paa Uatch-Ura -"The Great Green Water"

prt m hrw (Coming Forth by Day) plate VIII

"What then is it? "Million of years" [is] the name of the one, "Uat-Ura (Green Lake)" [is] the name of the other; a pool is is of hesmen (naton) and a pool it is of Maaaat (nitre); otherwise said, "Traverser of millions of years" [is] the name of the one, "Uat-Ura (Green Lake)" [is] the name of the other; otherwise said, "Begetter of millions of years" [is] the name of the one, "Green Lake" [is] the name of the other."

In Egyptian mythology, Huh (also Heh, Hah, Hauh) was the deification of eternity in the Ogdoad, his name itself meaning endlessness. As a concept, he was androgynous, his female form being known as Hauhet, which is simply the feminine form of his name. Like the other concepts in the Ogdoad, his male form was often depicted as a frog, or a frog-headed human, and his female form as a snake or snake-headed human. The other common representation depicts him crouching, holding a palm stem in each hand (or just one), sometimes with a palm stem in his hair, as palm stems represented long life to the Egyptians, the years being represented by notches on it. Depictions of this form also had a shen ring at the base of each palm stem, which represented infinity. Depictions of Huh were also used in hieroglyphs to represent one million, which was essentially considered equivalent to infinity in Egyptian mathematics. Thus this deity is also known as the 'god of millions of years.

147 Which will lead you home.

148 The crystal city awaits only the 144,000.

149 Each of you shall be called when your DNA explode in awareness, and at that exact moment is when you are truly not alone.

150 Your etherian parents have sent forth the Anunnagi to enlighten the chosen amongst you.

151 Once your mind's eye is open, and you can truly see with your inner being, then you will be prepared.

152 And the ladder will be let down for you to climb each step to your place in the crystal city.

Nuwaubians, Cheops, Armageddon, the Moon Cycle, the Tabs and the Black Devil

Nuwaupians, Cheops, Armageddon, the Moon Cycle, the Tabs and the Black Devil

Per Aaa (Pharaoh) Cheops (Khufu) 4th dynasty - 2589 to 2566 B.C.

Holy Tablets Chapter 10 Tab 12:


411 Nuwaubians are becoming aware.

412 They are waking up to all of the deceptions and lies.

413 For the first time since the ruler Cheops, 5000 years ago.

414 Woolly-haired people are being given the real choice between right or
wrong, knowledge or ignorance,

415 Liberty or serfdom, equality or inequality, justice or injustice, life or
death,

416 Own spiritual science Nuwaubu or alien religion,

417 Meaning, liberty with nine ether or captivity with god and Jesus or
Muhammad worship, called Islam.

418 When sufficient circulation of these choices has been completed,

419 And sufficient time has been allowed to accept or reject these choices
through overstanding,

420 Armageddon will climax with fire-artificial fire and natural fire.

421 The last war of the moon cycle is called Armageddon.

422 Armageddon will start before the end of the moon cycle, and will
continue until the universe, including orb, Earth, is in the rule of liberty,
rightness, justice, and equality again.

423 Armageddon is the war of the resurrection of the dead-the mental
dead.

424 Armageddon is the showdown between right and wrong, between life
and death.

425 If a Negro, male and female, can read and study this tablet and still have
the same old negative mind and same old negative spirit,

426 That makes a person a black devil and keeps a person a Negro.

427 That individual is incapable of being resurrected from the mental dead
and is definitely detrimental to the cause of New Being progress and well-being,
because that person is indeed on the side of the enemy of liberty, equality, justice,
and nationalism.

428 Furthermore, if a Negro simply reads these teachings and the knowledge
in them, and does not start a growing fire for mental resurrection, liberty, and
equality, that person is dead forever,

429 And is a bigger liability to progress and well-being than the alien enemy
himself; because you know the alien enemy on sight.

430 But those enemies among you that look like you are more dangerous,

431 For the only way you know them is by their words or deeds or both.

432 Therefore, the enemies among you that look like you, are enemies of right
Nuwaubian's goals, the same as the alien oppressor. They are black devils.

433 Nuwaubu is the best knowledge, wisdom, and overstanding.

434 Nuwaubu is the equalizer anywhere and any time,

435 And it will be disclosed when the minds of all woolly-haired people with
the ability to identify themselves with nine ether have been qualified. And that
time is now, right now, if accepted and diligently studied as well as read.

436 This tablet is dedicated and designed to separate the sheep from the
goat-separate those who can make it from those who cannot make it. Those
who are not flexible enough to reform and conform to Right Knowledge
through sound right reason, will not survive Armageddon.

437 The showdown between right and wrong is on right now. Come join your
own.

The Prophetic night of December 18, 1925

Islam,

On the evening of December 18, 1925, the citizens of Chicago (and the entire continent of Amexum) viewed a glorious event in the sky. The following is excerpted from the Chicago Daily Tribune from an article entitled “The Crescent and Star”. Author: Shelby Maxwell.

“The symbol of Islam hung low in the western sky last night at sunset. The moon and the planet Venus were as in conjunction, with Venus following the horns of the crescent. The figure of the crescent and the star is one of the most beautiful sights of the heavens and its rather rare. It was much admired ages before Mohammed adopted it as his symbol. This conjunction was a bright one, as Venus is now nearing the earth. From the astronomers viewpoint the event furnished an excellent chance to compare the brilliancy of the earth’s two nearest celestial neighbors. The moon is our satellite, while Venus is the earth’s twin world. The moon is a dead and frozen little globe, while Venus pulses with life like the earth.”

Using computer based simulation programs I am able to recreate precisely what the Moors of Chicago saw on this special night.

The above graphic shows where stars and planets where at along the western horizon of Chicago on December 18, 1925 at 11pm (planets not actual sizes). As you can see the planet Venus, and the moon are very close to each other and are moving westward along the lower southwestern horizon.

The above chart from a moon-based graphic program shows exactly what phase the moon was in on this night. As you can see the cusp of the moon was crescent-shaped.

This graphic created by me is my impression of what the moon and Venus looked like on the night of December 18, 1925 as they moved along the western horizon.

As per the newspaper article, the Moors of Chicago interpreted this celestial event as a sign from Allah that the religion of Islam would arise in the West with the arrival of the Asiatic Moor that would signify the beginnings of the great Asiatic Moorish Nation.

Dominus Iesus - The Condemnation of the non Catholic church

Dominus Iesus (Latin for "The Lord Jesus") is a declaration by the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith. It was approved in a Plenary meeting of the Congregation, and bears the signature of its then Prefect, Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, now Pope Benedict XVI, and of its then Secretary, Archbishop Tarcisio Bertone, now Cardinal Secretary of State. The declaration was approved by Pope John Paul II and was published on August 6, 2000. It is subtitled "On the Unicity and Salvific Universality of Jesus Christ and the Church.

This document states that people outside of Christianity are "in a gravely deficient situation in comparison with those who, in the Church, have the fullness of the means of salvation", and that non-Catholic Christian communities had "defects."

Some non-Catholic groups have interpreted this as disparagement of their faiths while others have appreciated that the Church position does not deny the salvation of those officially separated from the Catholic Church.

Some actual text from the declaration...

The Christian faithful are therefore not permitted to imagine that the Church of Christ is nothing more than a collection divided, yet in some way one of Churches and ecclesial communities; nor are they free to hold that today the Church of Christ nowhere really exists, and must be considered only as a goal which all Churches and ecclesial communities must strive to reach. In fact, the elements of this already-given Church exist, joined together in their fullness in the Catholic Church and, without this fullness, in the other communities. Therefore, these separated Churches and communities as such, though we believe they suffer from defects, have by no means been deprived of significance and importance in the mystery of salvation. For the spirit of Christ has not refrained from using them as means of salvation which derive their efficacy from the very fullness of grace and truth entrusted to the Catholic Church.

The lack of unity among Christians is certainly a wound for the Church; not in the sense that she is deprived of her unity, but in that it hinders the complete fulfilment of her universality in history.

and I will obey the statutes of your mouth.

Lamedh

89 Your word, O LORD, is eternal;
it stands firm in the heavens.

90 Your faithfulness continues through all generations;
you established the earth, and it endures.

91 Your laws endure to this day,
for all things serve you.

92 If your law had not been my delight,
I would have perished in my affliction.

93 I will never forget your precepts,
for by them you have preserved my life.

94 Save me, for I am yours;
I have sought out your precepts.

95 The wicked are waiting to destroy me,
but I will ponder your statutes.

96 To all perfection I see a limit;
but your commands are boundless.

Mem

97 Oh, how I love your law!
I meditate on it all day long.

98 Your commands make me wiser than my enemies,
for they are ever with me.

99 I have more insight than all my teachers,
for I meditate on your statutes.

100 I have more understanding than the elders,
for I obey your precepts.

101 I have kept my feet from every evil path
so that I might obey your word.

102 I have not departed from your laws,
for you yourself have taught me.

103 How sweet are your words to my taste,
sweeter than honey to my mouth!

104 I gain understanding from your precepts;
therefore I hate every wrong path.

Nun

105 Your word is a lamp to my feet
and a light for my path.

106 I have taken an oath and confirmed it,
that I will follow your righteous laws.

107 I have suffered much;
preserve my life, O LORD, according to your word.

108 Accept, O LORD, the willing praise of my mouth,
and teach me your laws.

109 Though I constantly take my life in my hands,
I will not forget your law.

110 The wicked have set a snare for me,
but I have not strayed from your precepts.

111 Your statutes are my heritage forever;
they are the joy of my heart.

112 My heart is set on keeping your decrees
to the very end.

Samekh

113 I hate double-minded men,
but I love your law.

114 You are my refuge and my shield;
I have put my hope in your word.

115 Away from me, you evildoers,
that I may keep the commands of my God!

116 Sustain me according to your promise, and I will live;
do not let my hopes be dashed.

117 Uphold me, and I will be delivered;
I will always have regard for your decrees.

118 You reject all who stray from your decrees,
for their deceitfulness is in vain.

119 All the wicked of the earth you discard like dross;
therefore I love your statutes.

120 My flesh trembles in fear of you;
I stand in awe of your laws.

Ayin

121 I have done what is righteous and just;
do not leave me to my oppressors.

122 Ensure your servant's well-being;
let not the arrogant oppress me.

123 My eyes fail, looking for your salvation,
looking for your righteous promise.

124 Deal with your servant according to your love
and teach me your decrees.

125 I am your servant; give me discernment
that I may understand your statutes.

126 It is time for you to act, O LORD;
your law is being broken.

127 Because I love your commands
more than gold, more than pure gold,

128 and because I consider all your precepts right,
I hate every wrong path.

Pe

129 Your statutes are wonderful;
therefore I obey them.

130 The unfolding of your words gives light;
it gives understanding to the simple.

131 I open my mouth and pant,
longing for your commands.

132 Turn to me and have mercy on me,
as you always do to those who love your name.

133 Direct my footsteps according to your word;
let no sin rule over me.

134 Redeem me from the oppression of men,
that I may obey your precepts.

135 Make your face shine upon your servant
and teach me your decrees.

136 Streams of tears flow from my eyes,
for your law is not obeyed.

Tsadhe

137 Righteous are you, O LORD,
and your laws are right.

138 The statutes you have laid down are righteous;
they are fully trustworthy.

139 My zeal wears me out,
for my enemies ignore your words.

140 Your promises have been thoroughly tested,
and your servant loves them.

141 Though I am lowly and despised,
I do not forget your precepts.

142 Your righteousness is everlasting
and your law is true.

143 Trouble and distress have come upon me,
but your commands are my delight.

144 Your statutes are forever right;
give me understanding that I may live.

Qoph

145 I call with all my heart; answer me, O LORD,
and I will obey your decrees.

146 I call out to you; save me
and I will keep your statutes.

147 I rise before dawn and cry for help;
I have put my hope in your word.

148 My eyes stay open through the watches of the night,
that I may meditate on your promises.

149 Hear my voice in accordance with your love;
preserve my life, O LORD, according to your laws.

150 Those who devise wicked schemes are near,
but they are far from your law.

151 Yet you are near, O LORD,
and all your commands are true.

152 Long ago I learned from your statutes
that you established them to last forever.

Resh

153 Look upon my suffering and deliver me,
for I have not forgotten your law.

154 Defend my cause and redeem me;
preserve my life according to your promise.

155 Salvation is far from the wicked,
for they do not seek out your decrees.

156 Your compassion is great, O LORD;
preserve my life according to your laws.

157 Many are the foes who persecute me,
but I have not turned from your statutes.

158 I look on the faithless with loathing,
for they do not obey your word.

159 See how I love your precepts;
preserve my life, O LORD, according to your love.

160 All your words are true;
all your righteous laws are eternal.

Sin and Shin

161 Rulers persecute me without cause,
but my heart trembles at your word.

162 I rejoice in your promise
like one who finds great spoil.

163 I hate and abhor falsehood
but I love your law.

164 Seven times a day I praise you
for your righteous laws.

165 Great peace have they who love your law,
and nothing can make them stumble.

166 I wait for your salvation, O LORD,
and I follow your commands.

167 I obey your statutes,
for I love them greatly.

168 I obey your precepts and your statutes,
for all my ways are known to you.

Taw

169 May my cry come before you, O LORD;
give me understanding according to your word.

170 May my supplication come before you;
deliver me according to your promise.

171 May my lips overflow with praise,
for you teach me your decrees.

172 May my tongue sing of your word,
for all your commands are righteous.

173 May your hand be ready to help me,
for I have chosen your precepts.

174 I long for your salvation, O LORD,
and your law is my delight.

175 Let me live that I may praise you,
and may your laws sustain me.

176 I have strayed like a lost sheep.
Seek your servant,
for I have not forgotten your commands.
