If Antichrist is going to prove his lineage to King David so he can deceive the Jewish people into thinking he is their long-awaited Messiah, he must "validate" his lineage. The lie that "validates" his lineage back to Jesus is the Merovingian Bloodline Genealogy that the "DaVinci Code" book, and now the movie, is teaching billions of people the world over. This movie is the next huge publicizing of this obscure, but critical, occult doctrine, and it comes at the same time as so many other events are seemingly coming to prophetic conclusion!

The blockbuster movie, "DaVinci Code", based upon Dan Brown's monumentally best-selling book by the same name, is set for theater release May 17 in some countries, and May 19 in the United States. The very fact that the lie propagated by this Book/Movie is being released again and again so powerfully is another "sign of the times" which tell us that the appearance of the Antichrist (Masonic Christ) is drawing near.

You see, Antichrist cannot arise until significant numbers of people throughout the world believe the "Merovingian Bloodline Lie", so powerfully presented by Hollywood.

The combination of Dan Brown's DaVinci Code book and the movie about to be released by the same title is one of the most startling events in a long time, for it is a most effective conditioning tool to expose to people's consciousness a critical lie upon which Antichrist will absolutely depend; further, this lie occurs at a time when events of the day seem to be moving toward more globalism than ever before. At this most critical time in world history, the DaVinci Code exposed an obscure occult, secret society lie, that has only been written about in New Age type books. While the book, "Holy Blood, Holy Grail", by Lincoln, has sold over one million copies, and while TV programs have aired on this subject, all these former airings absolutely pale into insignificance compared to the nearly 20 million books of Brown's DaVinci Book.

Since getting people to believe this lie is so very important to the appearance of Antichrist, let us now examine these lies as told in Brown's book. All indications are that the movie will continue to teach the lies of the book, albeit in a more fictionalized manner, so let us examine the book.

Here is a list of the lies told in Dan' Brown's book, "The DaVinci Code".

* Jesus married Mary Magdalene and had a boy child. After Jesus' crucifixion, Mary fled with her daughter -- depending upon assistance of friends -- to the country now known as France. Ultimately, this son married into French Nobility, from whom have sprung the monarchies of Europe, Great Britain, and even Russia. To protect and preserve this secret bloodline lineage -- called the Merovingian Bloodline -- a secret society called "Priory of Sion" was established. Then, when Antichrist arises, he will be able to demonstrate his uninterrupted Merovingian lineage all the way back to Jesus. According to Matthew, Chapter 1, once Antichrist has plugged into Jesus, he is "home free" to King David! Thus will be "fulfilled" a most critical component of anyone trying to convince people he is the Jewish Messiah, i.e., that he is descended directly from the lineage of King David.

This most occult society exists today and is still actively protecting and preserving this critical information.

* When reading Dan Brown's book, you need to strap your seatbelts on, for you shall be exposed to a mixture of truth and error, the likes of which you have probably never seen. You will also see New Age and Gnostic religious concepts to which you may have never been known. In our best-selling video, "Secret Mysteries of America's Beginnings", we reveal the key Gnostic lies which underpin the DaVinci Code and we tie this directly into the Gnosticism/Knights Templar inherent in the National Treasure movie. At this moment in time, there is probably no more important issue to understand than the Gnostic teaching bring promoted in the DaVinci Code.

* Brown's book is a slick psychological presentation that purports to present all sides of the subject, but does so in such a way as to leave the impression with the viewer that the entire concept -- that Jesus might have been married to Mary Magdalene and produced an heir that is now the bloodline of European and British Monarchies -- just might be true after all. This slick psychological presentation is, in reality, the outworking of the Dialectic Principle, which we have called the "Six Step Attitudinal Change Plan". If you have not read our treatise on this very slick method of silently changing people's minds, attitudes, and values without them being the least bit aware of it, please stop right now to read NEWS1055.

* In the discussion of the painter Leonardo DaVinci, we learn the following:

This is the kind of a man who would hide inner meaning in his painting, the kind of man who would hide in his painting what he kept out of his notebooks. In 1495, DA Vinci began painting his "Last Supper". At this book, Brown resorts to telling people what we should see, i.e., referring to the 'hidden meaning' in this painting. He then points out a distinctive "V" created by the angle of Jesus' body on the one side and 'John's' body -- or is it Mary Magdalene's body? -- on the left. Brown correctly stated that, in Medieval Art, the 'V' was a female symbol, a symbol of the female organ. Brown's position is that the 'John' sitting to Jesus' right is really supposed to be Mary Magdalene. Indeed, when you look closely at the features, they seem to be distinctively feminine. The face is feminine and the hair is curled like a woman's hair and very blonde. This person, declares Brown, is Mary Magdalene.

She is sitting next to Jesus - a most favored position at the table.

Therefore, the question of this hour is obvious? "If this person is really Mary Magdalene, who gave DA Vinci this 'hidden knowledge' that Mary was married to Jesus"?

Lo and behold, the answer is a secret society -- once again, we see the role secret societies have played in the development of Western societies, just as we demonstrate in "Secret Mysteries of America's Beginnings".

The secret society that passed this "dangerous knowledge" down from generation to generation has been largely unknown; however, in the early 1960's, secret files were discovered in the French National Laboratory called "Dossiers Secrets". These ancient documents make several detailed references to a group called the "Priory of Sion". This occult secret society listed many Grand Masters through centuries past, including some very famous names, of painters and 'thinkers' who stand high in estimation in Western European history. Some of these men were:

The unspoken but clear message in all this recounting of names -- a practice especially strong in Freemasonry -- is that, if this caliber of man was a high-ranking member of this organization, the organization must be highly prized. Of course, nothing could be further from the truth, for Satan is the "Lord of this World" and fully capable of placing his men in the right positions of every society in every era. Discerning Christians should never, ever fall for this line.

Critics have posed three major questions:

1. Is there something called 'Priory of Sion'?

2. How did it get this information? [NOTE: The manner in which this is phrased implies there is valid information to gain]

3. What does it have to do with the legends called "Holy Grail"?

SECRET GOSPELS -- CRITICAL PART OF THE LIE

At this point, the book raised a very interesting -- and false -- issue: There are "Secret Gospels" which have remained buried for centuries. These Gospels contain information that Mary Magdalene was a favorite of Jesus and that Jesus kissed her repeatedly on the mouth! One of the interesting ideas is that she was both married to Jesus and had His child. After crucifixion, she fled from Jerusalem with the help of friends and sailed to what is currently known as France. She and the child went to France. These descendants married into French nobility and formed the Priory of Sion. While there is no evidence of a child or bloodline in any historical documents, many feel the evidence can be found in legends that have circulated in Western France for centuries. Such as the Legend of the Holy Grail.

One of the interesting ideas Brown presents is that she was both married to Jesus, and had His children. After crucifixion, she fled from Jerusalem with the help of friends and sailed to what is currently known as France. She and the child went to France. These descendants married into French nobility, which in time formed the Priory of Sion. While there is no evidence of a child or bloodline in any historical documents, many feel the evidence can be found in legends that have circulated in Western France for centuries. Such as the Legend of the Holy Grail. Fleeing persecution, a boat with no oars shows up on the coast of France, carrying the "Holy Grail"! Thus, New Age adherents believe that the "Holy Grail" was not just Mary Magdalene but the child himself.

The two formed the real Holy Grail, the real bloodline of Jesus Christ.

New Age scholars believe that the "sacred vessel" which contained the bloodline of Jesus was Mary Magdalene herself! This is the reason Leonardo Da Vinci painted Mary at the side of Jesus in his "Last Supper". She was the true "Holy Grail", as the sacred child which was later married to the Merovingian Prince would have come from Mary's body. The "Holy Blood", in the title "Holy Blood, Holy Grail", refers to the bloodline created when Mary's child was married to the Prince.

Now, Brown shifts back to the secret society of the Priory of Sion.

The Merovingian Bloodline traces back to Jesus and His descendants, i.e., Mary Magdalene and the child she bore. This bloodline was threatened by the Catholic Church so the truth had to be hidden. The Priory of Sion was assigned to protect the information about this bloodline.

At this point, you might ask the question: Why couldn't the truth just be publicly told during the Medieval Ages?

Orthodoxy would not permit it; it would not tolerate a married Jesus. The truth was too dangerous to tell openly, as the Church has always reacted with violence. Of course, the "Church" referred to here is not the genuine Christian Church, but the ugly Inquisitional face of the Roman Catholic Church.

"SECRET GOSPELS" = GNOSTIC GOSPELS

Now, let us discuss these "Secret Gospels" in great detail, as the entire New Age Movement -- including Dan Brown -- clearly place much credence is these most unbiblical accounts.

Hidden in Egypt for centuries, these 'Secret Gospels' have recently been discovered. Do they tell us anything of the relationship between Jesus and Mary Magdalene? The Christian Bible has large holes in the story of the life of Jesus. The Church ordered all 'Secret Gospels' destroyed and did destroy all but one copy. This one copy remained hidden in Egypt until about 50 years ago. The 'Megamantic Scrolls' described an alternate history of the story of Jesus and Mary Magdalene. If the Church went to such great lengths to hide and destroy these 'other Gospels', it must be assumed that the story they told was very explosive."

The names of several 'other Gospels' are named, supposedly all a part of this copy discovered in Egypt 50 years ago. These names are:

* Gospel of Thomas

* Gospel of Truth

* Gospel of Phillip

* Gospel of Mary Magdalene

These are also called the "Gnostic Gospels", and they had special knowledge of Jesus. The parchment that say Jesus was affectionately kissing Mary Magdalene is damaged. The scroll that says, 'Jesus was kissing Mary Magdalene on ____ (hole in the parchment). He could have been kissing any body part, hand, foot, lips, you can put in the body part. But, whatever He was kissing made the disciples jealous.

The implication that Jesus was kissing Mary Magdalene sexually are possible. The Gospels of Phillip call Mary Magdalene 'companion'. These Gnostic Gospels are believable. Further, in the 'Gospel of Mary', Mary Magdalene is a very powerful figure in the early Church Movement.

When Peter asks Mary Magdalene to tell the disciples anything the Savior told her, Mary responded, 'I will tell you that which He hid from you'. She then tells Peter that Jesus appeared to her in a vision [after His death] and spoke to her. Andrew objects, saying he does not believe this story. Peter interjects, 'Surely, Jesus didn't love a woman more than us'. Mary cries and says, 'Peter, do you think I made all of this up?'

How did Mary Magdalene fall from favor? Mary was a victim of a power struggle between men and women in the early Church. As the Church became dominated by men -- Male Hierarchy -- Mary Magdalene posed a threat to this male leadership. The man-dominated hierarchy was threatened. How different our perception of Jesus would be if He were with a wife (NOTE: Sounds and looks very pious here). If Jesus had a wife and children, the Church would have had a very different attitude toward sex. Between 100-150 A.D., women were marginalized in the Church and pushed out; this was probably when the story that Mary was a prostitute started circulating.

After all, History books are written by the winners".

During a recent interview, Dan Brown was asked:

"Why do you think your novel has touched such a nerve?" His answer:

"The mysteries of spirituality, of the origins of our religions, are topics that resonate at a very deep level, at the very core of the human psyche. Whether you agree or not, the topics are now on the table and we are talking about them, topics which for centuries have been taboo."

Mary is presented in these "Secret Gospels" in a very powerful way. you get to talking only of Mary Magdalene, Jesus, and sex, you lose the more important point that, 20 centuries ago, we had a great religious leader named Jesus of Nazareth who broke through the barriers of cultural bias, who had among His disciples and closest friends, women, who didn't just go around to get the tea and sweep up after the boys left. She was every much an Apostle, companion, spokesperson for Jesus and His Gospel as any of the men were.

Thus, the "DaVinci Code" rewrites history, substituting the humanist Gnostic Gospel which glorifies the goddess, Mary Magdalene. Every attempt is made to convince people that Jesus did not really die, but got out of the tomb, went into the village, married Mary Magdalene, had children by her, and that Mary finally fled to France where she gave birth to a girl who later married a Merovingian prince.

Since the nobility of Europe, Eastern Europe and Great Britain can all trace their bloodline back through the Merovingian Kings, any one of them can trace their genealogy back to Jesus if they can plug into the daughter of Mary Magdalene!

GNOSTICISM - SATANIC DOCTRINE REBORN

Gnosticism According To Satanic Doctrine

"The name Gnostic means wisdom or knowledge, and is derived from the Greek, Gnosis. The members of the order claimed to be familiar with the secret doctrines of early Christianity. They interpreted the Christian Mysteries according to pagan symbolism. Their secret information and philosophic tenets they concealed from the profane and taught to a small group of only especially initiated persons." ["The Secret Teaching of All The Ages", by Manly P. Hall, 33° Freemason, The Philosophical Research Society, 1988, page XXV; Emphasis was in original]

Jesus taught all the principles of the Kingdom of God quite openly. Listen to Him explain:

"Jesus answered him, I spake openly to the world; I ever taught in the synagogue, and in the temple, whither the Jews always resort; and in secret have I said nothing." [John 18:20]

In other places, the Bible declared that His Kingdom was "freely given".

"He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?" [Romans 8:32]

"Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God." [1 Cor 2:12]

However, the Kingdom of Satan is NOT given freely; rather, the secret doctrines comprising the devil's kingdom are always hidden from the public, given only to the select few. For this reason, these nefarious doctrines have always appealed to the inherent snobbish nature of a prideful man. Since most natural leaders are very proud of themselves, this appeal to their pride -- i.e., that they will know things hidden from the "profane", the average person -- has been successful in attracting unredeemed men to secret societies in every era of time for the past 4,000 years.

Here, Masonic author, Manly P. Hall, has just told us that Gnosticism "concealed from the profane and taught to a small group of only especially initiated persons." This fact makes them an occult secret society, before you ever get to their blasphemous doctrines!

Notice, also, that the Gnostics claimed to know "secret doctrines" of Christianity, i.e., a "Mysteries Religion". Always, Satan entices the unsaved with promises that Christianity contains "secret doctrines", as this is his way of getting around the bold truth of the Bible! Just as Satan whispered in the ear of Eve, "Did God really say?", so he is whispering in the ears of members of his secret societies, "God did not really say"! Or, saying to the elect few, "These are doctrines hidden from the masses, that God knew He could not reveal to the common people".

Thus, occultism has "Secret Doctrines", and "Secret Gospels", and the "Secret Years of Jesus Christ", all given in order to circumvent the true teaching of the Holy Bible.

Finally, notice that the Gnostics interpreted true Scripture "according to pagan symbolism". In other words, they re-interpreted key Christian doctrine according to Satanic pagan beliefs and doctrines, a dastardly practice called "syncretism". Their symbolism thus reflected these pagan beliefs. God expressly forbids mixing His Truth with Satan's untruth! Such a practice is called "Leaven", i.e., false doctrine. Listen to what the Apostle Paul said about leaven.
