Primary Proof of the Bible: Types (Foreshadowings) of the Antichrist throughout History

ANCIENT AMERICA (before discovered by Europeans; therefore, the Gospel was not copied from his life!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!):
-Quetzalcoatl ("feathered SERPENT"[see Part Two]) the lord of lords was said to be born of a virgin, creator of life, resurrected, & will come again

quetz quetzalcoatl"That ancient SERPENT, called the Devil, & Satan [winged angel]." (Rev. 12:9)

-Quetz & his followers bear crosses: (see pic above) "Our old man was crucified with him [Christ], that the body of sin might be annulled." (Romans 6:6)
-GOD'S MESSAGE TO MORMONS: Christ did not come to America as Quetzalcoatl to give us the Book of Mormon (which was transferred to Joseph Smith the founder of Mormonism by the angel Moroni), a mix of truth & lies such as that there are an "infinite number of holy personages" who become "Gods", for God says "before Me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after Me. I, even I, am the LORD; and beside Me there is no savior." (Isaiah 43:11); Quetz was Satan himself, or some other demon?! (1 Cor. 10:19, Deut. 32:17: pagan gods=demons)

moroniAngel Moroni (name related to Captain Kidd the pirate who steals treasure, as Moroni steals people from God) appears to Joseph Smith, who says "He had on a loose robe of most exquisite whiteness. It was a whiteness beyond anything earthly I had ever seen.… His hands were naked and his arms also a little above the wrists.… Not only was his robe exceedingly white but his whole person was glorious beyond description": "Satan appears as an angel of light" (2 Cor. 11:14)

 

 

QUETZALCOATL: (some of the very numerous & uncommon parallels with Jesus Christ which are widely considered authentic are in bold; there are additionally many more uncommon similarities not mentioned here which may or may not have been invented)

in the Codex Borgia, a manuscript dated from the time before Christopher Columbus discovered America, there are pictures of Quetzalcoatl "with the impression of nails in both his hands & feet" (http://books.google.com/books?id=ew0aJKGn8g8C&pg=PA150&lpg=PA150&dq=borgia+codex+quetzalcoatl+crucified&source=bl&ots=eaDGqOZKye&sig=fey4kxHu-szmOf0xVDP_ROQyhm4&hl=en&sa=X&oi=book_result&resnum=6&ct=result)

And in one instance, where the figure is not merely outlined, the cross is red, the clothes are coloured, and the face and hands quite black...Similar crosses were placed over the eyes of those initiated into their Mysteries. ["Our old man was crucified with him [Christ], that the body of sin might be annulled." (Romans 6:6)]When Cortez arrived in Mexico, he brought with him the cross. Recognizing this, the natives believed that he was Quetzalcoatl returned, for the latter had promised to come back in the infinite future and redeem his people.

crossEven the surrounding persons have crosses on their heads!

(http://www.jefflindsay.com/bme9.shtml) Although Quetzalcoatl's origin is clouded in obscurity, the legends, the few pre-Columbian writings extant today, and the early post-Conquest writings contain an abundance of material on this ancient and revered god. These accounts are contradictory and vary widely both on the god's attributes and the details of how he was worshiped, undoubtedly due to a millennium of digressions from the original concept from the end of the Book of Mormon to the time of the Conquest. However, through all this maze, we find that the Mesoamericans consistently endow Quetzalcoatl with many Christlike attributes, some of which are listed below:
--Quetzalcoatl was the creator of life. [1]
--Quetzalcoatl taught virtue. [2]
--Quetzalcoatl was the greatest Lord of all. [3]
--Quetzalcoatl had a "long beard and the features of a white man." [4]
--The Mesoamericans believed Quetzalcoatl would return. [5]

To some extent, the records fuse Topiltzin Quetzalcoatl's [a Mesoamerican king, as Jesus is the "king of kings & lord of lords" (Revelation 19:16)] life and deeds with those of his god, Quetzalcoatl. Nicholson comments on this fusion that "a certain degree of 'mythification' of Topiltzin Quetzalcoatl almost certainly occurred, . . . as well as some assimilation to the deity whose particular protagonist he was credited with being."31 Therefore, it is extremely important for researchers to look at the surrounding content and context of these various colonial manuscripts when determining which portion of the account is referring to the deity Quetzalcoatl and which is giving a historical narrative of the famed culture hero Topiltzin Quetzalcoatl… The worship of Quetzalcoatl underwent a resurgence with the birth of Topiltzin Quetzalcoatl. As a result, a clear-cut distinction cannot be drawn between the ruler and the god, as noted above. The Topiltzin Quetzalcoatl saga includes stories of drunkenness, fornication, and murder.35 Nevertheless, this ruler was regarded as a deity by his followers, as was true of some kings in Mesoamerica. Therefore, we face a smoky screen of mythological, historical, and Christian influence throughout these legends that tie mortal Topiltzin Quetzalcoatl to the god Quetzalcoatl.

We will begin with the "virgin birth" myth. There is no account in the pre- or post-conquest texts that says Quetzalcoatl or the Maize God experienced a miraculous virgin birth. However, Topiltzin Quetzalcoatl's illustrious life began with his "virgin birth," which story is garnished with a biblical overlay throughout but obviously mixed with historical places and events. A strong supernaturalistic flavor pervades the whole account, especially regarding this culture hero's mother, Chimalman, who received an annunciation from a heavenly messenger sent down by the creator god…32

The third element has to do with the planet Venus. Toward the end of Mesoamerican history, Quetzalcoatl is shown in pre-Columbian pictorial codices as associated with this planet. Quetzalcoatl himself is not linked to Venus in any written text, yet the history of Topiltzin Quetzalcoatl, as recorded in colonial literature, shows this ruler's association with Venus. David Carrasco has noted that "a Topiltzin-Morning Star cult was celebrated in Cholula, suggesting that a fusion of the culture hero and deity Ehécatl [an aspect of Quetzalcoatl] and Morning Star developed."36 These legends state that upon Topiltzin Quetzalcoatl's death and cremation, he rose to heaven and became the Morning Star.37 This is how this culture hero became resurrected, deified, and connected to Venus. [Similarly, Christ the God of Love's (as Venus or her Greek counterpart Aphrodite is the goddess of love) rising into heaven from the Earth is symbolized by the Sun rising every morning. Aeneas, who is a type of the Antichrist as I show clearly in Part Three, was the son of Venus, and thus he too was associated with Venus!]

Fourth, a more prominent symbol of Quetzalcoatl is the Feathered Serpent. As we shall see, this figure also ties into the Venus ideology. The Feathered Serpent may exist in artistic motifs as early as the Olmec civilization, whose culture some Latter-day Saints equate with the Jaredites. A rock sculpture, Monument 19 from La Venta, Tabasco (circa 900—400 BC), portrays a rattlesnake with an avian beak and feather crest (see fig. 9). Two quetzal birds are also carved on this Olmec monument from the Middle Formative period…A very graphic illustration of Quetzalcoatl in his animal guise as the Feathered Serpent appears in the Codex Telleriano-Remensis.

(http://www.jefflindsay.com/bme9.shtml) Hunt suggests that this symbol may be related to the Old Testament story of the brass serpent that Moses made, which allowed the Israelites to be healed from the venomous bites they had received from fiery serpents among them (Numbers 21:6-9, where these serpents were apparently encountered near the Arava or Arabah Valley between Sinai and modern Israel). The Book of Mormon indicates that it was "fiery flying serpents" in 1 Nephi 17:41, a statement that seems to be unsupported in Biblical text (see also Alma 33:19-21). However, Isaiah's mention of "fiery flying serpents" in Isaiah 14:29 and 30:6 suggests that this may have been what the Israelites encountered (though Isaiah's references to such creatures is not in the context of the Exodus). More interestingly, numerous extra-Biblical texts point to an early tradition that the serpents that plagued the Israelites were "flying" serpents. Quoting from Hunt again (p. 128-129):
This usage of the term flying in association with Moses' brazen serpent is indirectly supported by numerous works of modern scholars. For example, Karen Joines notes in [his] exhaustive study of this subject that to the Hebrew word for serpent used in Numbers "may be attributed wings." [6] . . . Henry also suggests that the serpents "flew in their faces and poisoned them." [7]
In addition, there are isolated accounts of winged serpents in this area of the desert. Joines quotes Herodotus as believing "this desert to be a haven for flying serpents." [8] Bush, while he does not give the concept credence, does agree that "the popular idea has for some cause invested these serpents with wings . . . [and] it is supposed that the epithet flying was given from their power of leaping to a considerable distance in passing from tree to tree." [9] Perhaps most significant, however, is the analysis by Auerbach: the serpent "was not simply placed upon a pole; this would be sufficiently designated by makkel or simply 'es. Rather, it was connected with the 'flagstaff.' " [10] In this manner, the serpent would appear as a flag, as though it were flying. [11] If Moses did indeed attach his brass serpent outstretched and perpendicular to his pole, it would comply fully with the description "fiery flying serpent."
