“Mary lived in the divine Eucharist, the center of her love. All her thoughts, words, and actions sprang from It like the rays from the sun. The Eucharist was the oracle which she consulted, the grace which she followed. But Jesus Christ in His Sacrament lives the same life of love which consumed Him in His mortal days. In His sacramental state He continues to adore His Father by His depthless self-abasement. He is still the Mediator and Interceder with divine goodness for the salvation of men” MenStillsSelfStatesActionFatherJesusChristSunGraceDivineGoodnessJesus ChristSalvationMortalsRaysMarySacramentsAdoreConsumedEucharistOraclesWords And ActionsMediatorsAbasement Author:Peter Julian Eymard

“In Celtic Ireland the name Leo was Lugh, another solar hero and mystic. In Wales he was Llew, to the Romans Lugus, to the Sumerians Lughal. Its not the same dude on walkabout, it's the Astrological sign of Leo. In the Christian iconography we have one of the Evangelists represented by a Lion. In the Nativity scenes we see 4 animals around the cradle of the Son/Sun king. One of these is also a Lion. Christians probably believe that there was one in the area and just happened to wander into the inn to take a peek at sleeping Jesus. Good thing it wasn't very hungry.” BelieveChristianJesusNamesSleepAnimalSunHappenedSonKingsHeroSceneAreasGood ThingsHungryWanderLionsIrelandCradleMysticWalesCelticInnsEvangelistsIconographyNativitySumerians Author:Michael Tsarion
“[Jesus] teaches that just as the sun gives light to both wicked and good, and the rain brings nourishment to righteous and unrighteous, God's compassion embraces all people. There are no pre-conditions for it, nothing we need to do first, nothing we have to believe. When we are ready to receive it, it is already there. And the more we live in its presence, the more effortlessly if flows through us, until we find that we no longer need external rules or Bibles or Messiahs.” PeopleIfsNeedsGivingFirstsBelieveLightJesusCompassionTeachSunConditionsReadyRainFlowEmbraceWickedRighteousNourishmentMessiah Author:Stephen Mitchell

The religion of Jesus makes men think, and to make men think is always dangerous to a despot's power.” ThinkingMenLongJesusSunLandDangerousTyrantsDespots Author:Charles Spurgeon
“For a fact, the Christians stole Christmas. We don't mind sharing it with them, but we don't like this pretense of theirs that it is the birthday of Jesus. It is the Birthday of the Unconquered Sun-Dies Natalis Invicti Solis. Christmas is a relic of sun worship.” MindFactsChristianDiesJesusSunWorshipPretenseRelics Author:Anne Nicol Gaylor
