Temple Of Mexican Deity Built By Believer In Jesus Christ

By:  Marshall Ramsey II, Worthy News U.S. Correspondent

TEOTIHUACAN, Mexico (WorthyNews) -- As Mexican and American archaeologists are busy poring over new discoveries found underneath an ancient Mexican pyramid, the most important discovery may be right on the surface.

Sergio Gomez Chavez, an archaeologist at the Instituto Nacional de Antropología e Historia, and George Cowgill, an archaeologist and professor emeritus at Arizona State University, have been searching for the royal tomb they believe to be hidden somewhere underneath the Pyramid of the Plumed Serpent.  They believe they have come closer to finding it with the discovery of liquid mercury,  something that is rare in ancient Mexico due to its difficulty in mining.

"It completely surprised us," said Gomez, who was at the entrance to the tunnel leading below the pyramid.

Mr. Cowgill said that "finding the mercury increases the odds of finding a tomb," but added that "It's still very uncertain, and that is what keeps everybody in suspense."

Mexican archaeologist Linda Manzanilla believes that the city was ruled not by a single king, but a council of four lords at its peak, and that Gomez may find the remains of one of them

While locating the tomb of the long-deceased ruler would be astounding, the more amazing find, at least for students of the Bible, especially those who defend its accuracy, may be found on the outside, on the pyramid itself.

Photos of the (step) pyramid show alternating sequences of serpent/dragon heads and lion heads with the bottom of the steps having a serpent running across the length of them.  If one applies the events of the Bible to human migration across the earth and includes the account of the fall of man and the introduction of death into the world, and the coming of a Redeemer of man, they take on a whole new meaning.

       "And the LORD God said unto the serpent, Because thou hast done this, thou art cursed
         above all cattle, and above every beast of the field; upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust
         shalt thou eat all the days of thy life: And I will put enmity between thee and the woman,
         and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his
         heel." Genesis 3:14,15





Notice the lions featured, that they are bearded.  What is significant about this is that there are no bearded lions in Mexico!  This means that the "Temple of the Plumed Serpent" could only have been built by someone who has seen a bearded lion such as those that dwell on the African plains.

        "And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne a book written within and on
          the backside, sealed with seven seals. And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud
          voice, Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof? And no man in
          heaven, nor in earth, neither under the earth, was able to open the book, neither to look
          thereon. And I wept much, because no man was found worthy to open and to read the
          book, neither to look thereon. And one of the elders saith unto me, Weep not: behold, the
          Lion of the tribe of Juda, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose
          the seven seals thereof." Revelation 5:1-5

What this means is that whoever built this temple, did not build it for Quetzalcoatl, but rather for Jesus Christ!

Ancient Olmecs Were Black Africans, Believed In Jehovah

By:  Marshall Ramsey II, Worthy News U.S. Correspondent

VERACRUZ, Mexico -- (WorthyNews)  For many centuries, people have wondered where the Olmecs of Mesoamerica came from, and when.  That answer may have been solved, a long time ago.

According to traditional sources of archaeological sites, the Olmec civilization began around 1250 BC, with some figuring back to the year 3113 BC, when Quetzalcoatl, the feathered serpent-god of the Aztecs, arrived in the area.  While the timeline for the founding of the Olmec people may be in dispute, their ethnic origin is not.  The Olmecs were ethnic (black) Africans.

This is not without controversy, however.  It flies in the face of everything the history books have taught us, that whites were the first people to cross the Atlantic.  Indeed, in the United States of America, we are taught that Christopher Columbus first crossed the Atlantic Ocean.  To a lesser extent, we are taught that the Vikings of northern Europe are the first to discover the North American continent (Mesoamerica is considered by some to be part of North America).  My own research shows that the Vikings founded the lost city of La Ciudad Blanca, "The White City," but that it was founded hundreds of years before Cortes.

According to an article featured at www.messagetoeagle.com, the true origin of the Olmecs may have been hidden "because it challenges scholars and prideful nationalists to explain how people from Africa could have come to the New World not hudnreds but thousands of years before Columbus, and how they could have developed, seemingly overnight."  This bears weight, as the Egyptians were known to write out of history unfavorable events or rulers.

According to Ivan Van Sertima (1935-2009), a Guyanese-born associate professor of Africana Studies at Rutgers University in the United States, many Olmec traits that we think would be uniquely Mesoamerican, actually came from Africa:

        "A study of the Olmec civilization reveals elements that so closely parallel ritual traits and techniques in the Egypto-Nubain world of the same period that it is difficult to maintain [that] all these are due to mere coincidence."

The head statues created by the Olmecs do bear a strong resemblance to black people, bearing the distinctive ape-like nose and puffy lips found on ethnic Africans.

Archaeologist Zecharia Sitchin (1920-2010), who wrote his book, The 12th Planet, based on texts taken from Akkadian and Sumerian clay tablets found in the near East, has this to say:

        "One of the rare academic studies admitting that the Olmecs were negroid [black] Africans was 'Africa and the Discovery of America' by Leo Wiener, professor of Slavic and other languages at Harvard University. Based on racial features and other considerations but mostly on linguistic analysis, he concluded that the Olmec tongue belonged to the Mande group of languages that originated in West Africa, between the Niger and Congo river.

        But writing in 1920, before the true age of Olmec remains became known, he attributed their presence in mesoamerica to Arab seafarers and slave traders in the Middle Ages. (The Lost Realms)"

Numerous artifacts also testify that the Olmecs were of negroid descent.  Olmec Head No. 3 found at the San Lorenzo Tenochtitlan site in Mexico, the Olmec "hollow baby" figurine, and Altar 5 from La Venta all show facial features distinctive of the black race.  While not in the majority opinion, I'm sure, the scene from Altar 5 depicting a were-jaguar baby being held by an Olmec male, seems to tell the viewer that they (the Olmecs) originated in an area populated by lions (a jaguar is a type of lion), of which the plains of northern Africa are famous for.

Stela 5, also called the "Tree of Life" stone which was found in Izapa, Chiapas, Mexico along the Guatemalan border, show a most unusual scene.  It shows images distinctive to Middle Eastern peoples.  In the bottom left corner shows a man with a long beard that is similar to that of Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, while various animal-headed persons appear similar to those seen in Hindu reliefs.

What is most interesting about Stela 5 lies at the bottom and the upper left corner of the stone.  At the bottom of the stone appear pyramids.  These look exactly like those found in Egypt, suggesting an Egyptian cultural or historical connection.  Below those are a series of waves.  This suggests that the Olmecs came to the North American continent after a great flood, like the one mentioned in the Bible.

The upper left hand corner of the stone, at the edge of one of the tree branches appears to be a serpent.  The tree, bearing fruit, combined with the image of the serpent, suggests that the Olmecs believed the historical account as mentioned in Genesis 3 which states that Satan, inhabiting the body of a serpent, tempted Eve from the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, and that all men were descended from them.  In short, they believed in Jehovah, the God of the Bible.

Whether or not they continued in their faith in Jehovah is up for grabs, but the stone clearly shows what the Olmecs believed concerning their origin and the origin of the human race.

Hebrews and Aztecs

Did you know that there is a connection between the Hebrews (Jews) and the Aztecs? The Aztecs called themselves Mexica, where we get the word Mexico from. Mexica is pronounced meh-SHEE-ca. Sounds like meshiac in Hebrew, pronounced messiah in English, as in Jesus Christ, the Messiah promised to Abraham. Also, it should be noted that Mexico's national symbol is a bird with a snake in its beak, the same as the ancient Israelite tribe of Dan.
