GABRIEL'S GIFT The Message and Mysteries in Luke and Acts
|

For two thousand years Christians have believed,
and taught others, that Luke's Gospel and The Acts
of the Apostles contain historical and biographical
information about the founders of their faith.
Agnostics and atheists consider Luke and Acts to be
nothing more than fantastic myths, written by and
about superstitious, religious zealots. Neither side
has ever considered that the other might be right,
or that they, themselves, might be wrong.
Gabriel's Gift: The Messages and Mysteries in Luke
and Acts, proves beyond a shadow of a doubt, that
these biblical accounts of early Christianity contain
accurate biographical and historical information. It
proves that Luke and Acts were written by a skilled
and educated historian, and supporter of Jesus,
who abhorred superstition. And it reveals, beyond a
shadow of a doubt, Luke's identity, unknown until
now.
But before the Christians call for a celebration of
their victory in this two thousand year old debate,
there's a catch: Gabriel's Gift also proves beyond a
shadow of a doubt that Luke and Acts contain
references to pagan myths and legends, some
ancient, that were popular at the time Luke sat down
to write his two books. Luke plagiarized a substantial
amount of material from earlier Christian writers,
primarily Mark and the unknown "Q." And he also
took material from the Old Testament, Euripides,
Homer, and other epic and classical literature from
antiquity.
However, these acts of plagiarism were not due to
laziness or a desire to deceive. To the contrary, the
purpose was to preserve the truth. Luke's actions
were not initiated to further the belief in mythology
as fact. They were undertaken to tell the truth about
what was happening to Jesus' doctrine in the first
century.
Luke is, without doubt, the most adept writer of
biographical and historical documents to ever
master the craft. He used a clever technique that
virtually assured the intact transmission of his
message. It has been said that "History is written by
the victor." An avid student of history, Luke had
become aware of that fact. And he was acutely aware
that the "victors' historical account" would not be
"The Truth" that Jesus and his disciples taught. He
was determined not to let that happen.
One of the most popular of ancient legends in the
first century was the story of the war between the
Greeks and Trojans and of the magnificent success
of the Trojan Horse. Luke devised a plan that
trumped even that brilliant military maneuver. His
plan, in essence, also utilized a Trojan Horse, but it
was one that would be built by the enemy. Luke was
able to predict the raw materials that would go into
its construction, so he quietly and secretly created
and furnished these materials. The "Trojan Horse"
became known as the Holy Bible; the raw materials
that Luke provided were the stories in Luke's
Gospel and The Acts of the Apostles.
Gabriel's Gift is the first book ever written that
reveals how and why Luke wrote his stories as he
did; it reveals how he exposed the lies and
deceptions of the "victors." Luke's ingenuity, and
his ability to accurately predict the future based on
his knowledge of the past, will be the key in Jesus'
ultimate triumph over the false prophets about
whom He warned. Luke's Gospel and The Acts of the
Apostles are truly the salvation of the "Words of
God" that were replaced by the words of Jesus'
enemies.
Be forewarned: there is a triumphant message
within the pages of this book for the true Christians,
those who want to know Jesus the Nazarene Christ
and want to honor his message. But there is also
triumph for the agnostics and atheists who have
been unable to accept many of the rituals and
requirements of the various traditional and
fundamentalist churches.
The exciting thing about Gabriel's Gift, and about
Luke's ultimate triumph over the false prophets and
antichrists who wrote the "history of the victors," is
that everyone is a winner. The Bible does contain
The Truth about God and about Jesus and the
Nazarenes. It just isn't the God, the Jesus, or The
Truth most Christians have believed it to be.
Luke and others risked their lives to preserve the
truth about the historical Jesus and the Nazarenes.
Many believe Jesus will return at the "end of time."
Finding Luke's hidden messages at this moment in
history, when so much seems to signify that the
"end of time" may be approaching, makes him
second only to Jesus as the most important person
in the history of the world. Will Jesus return in a
physical body? Or will His return simply be the
recovery of the lost truth about the historical
Jesus? Perhaps it is both. Perhaps the physical
Jesus will return to earth when the historical Jesus
is resurrected. Luke's message in Gabriels' Gift
resurrects the historical Jesus. Whether Jesus will
return in physical form remains to be seen.
Gabriel's Gift is for Christians, agnostics, and
atheists who believe they know the truth about
Jesus. It is a fascinating documentary of mystery and
intrigue in the first century that you won't be able to
put down.

Almost from the time I first learned to read, I have loved mysteries. I quit my
day job in 1999 so I could try my hand at writing mystery novels. I wrote just
one; it was called Enchanted Circle. It was during that experience that I
became aware of the presence of some unknown and unnamed energy
force working through my mind. That changed everything.
I never liked mathematics or numbers. But there is something about
numbers that makes them unique. Numbers are the universal language. It
doesn't matter if the language is Greek, Hebrew, Spanish, Italian, English, or
Martian, numbers are universal. If there are six apples sitting on a table, it
doesn't matter what the word-symbols are that represent six. When six is
translated into each language, the words used will be those that symbolize
six.
When I discovered that many biblical numbers were related to scientific
knowledge I was stunned. And I was instantly curious about what other
information might be hidden within them. It also occurred to me that there
might be mysteries within the words that filled the spaces between the
numbers.
I decided to delve into the stories as if they were chapters in a mystery
novel and to write about what I found. I spent over a year tracking down the
clues that became easier to spot once I got the hang of it, and I still haven't
unraveled all of it. In fact I feel as if I've just begun. But enough of the
mystery has been solved that I can at least start telling it. I have no idea
how many more books are waiting to be revealed. I'm certain I've just
scratched the surface of Luke and Acts, and I haven't even looked at
Matthew, Mark and John!
My first Jesus book, Jesus: Master of Science, Lessons of Light, focused on
the numbers in the book of Revelation. At that time I hadn't even realized
there were numbers elsewhere in the New Testament. But one day last year
I noticed the numbers in Luke's gospel, and it occurred to me that they
seemed totally irrelevant to the stories. I decided to underline each number
in the first chapter of Luke; there were only five. And then I picked up my
little calculator and multiplied them.
That was how this book came to be, and here's what I now know: The
Gospel According to Luke is, in fact, The Gospel of Lux, or The Gospel of
Light. (Lux rhymes with Luke's.)
With help from what I can only describe as an Energy that works through the
electrical impulses in my brain, I will prove to you that the author of Luke
and Acts cleverly created books designed to carry Jesus' true message and
knowledge to the "educated" people who lived in the first century, and to all
people who want to know The Truth for all times.
I use the word educated in reference to first century men and women
because few were privileged enough to receive any form of education,
other than learning the skills that would feed, house, and clothe a family.
Reading classical literature was not an option for the average person at that
time.
Modern men and women, at least those who live in developed countries,
are virtually all educated, some more than others, but most are able to read
and comprehend simple to complex information. And television, although
not utilized to its maximum potential, provides facts, figures, and knowledge
that educates even people who choose not to read.
Most people love a good mystery, and whoever wrote Luke was a master of
mysteries and puzzles. Here's an example of what I mean: If a first century,
Greek speaking teacher wanted to covertly address educated people who
were interested in finding religious truths and knowledge, what term might
he use in his address? Hint: The Greek word which refers to religion is
theo, from which the word theology is derived. In Greek, philo means lover
and sophistes means wise one. The highly educated were called
philosophers, meaning, of course, "lovers of knowledge"; remember Plato,
Aristotle, Socrates, and Pythagorus, who invented the word philosopher.
We’re looking for a subliminal name not easily identified by the people in
power who were determined to destroy all knowledge of Universal Truths in
order to keep the masses ignorant and subservient to them.
What would it be?
How about, Theological Philosopher, or Theophilosoph? Too obvious? How
about Theo-philos?
Luke 1:1-4: "Since many have undertaken to set down an orderly account of
the events that have occurred among us, just as they were handed on to us
by those who from the beginning were eyewitnesses and servants of the
word, I too decided, after investigating everything carefully for a long time,
to write an orderly account for you, most excellent Theophilus, so that you
may know the truth concerning the things about which you have been
instructed."
Theophilus is pretty close to Theo-philos. In fact, I think I like it better.
Second question: If you knew that Jesus taught scientific knowledge, and
you knew the primary information was about the importance of light in the
creation process (remember Einstein's E=mc2), how would you hide that
information for the Theological Philosophers in a gospel referred to as
Luke’s?
Hint: What are two objects that would be symbols of light for a first century
person? Perhaps the sun and the moon? The sun provides light during the
day, the moon during the night. What about the unique use of numbers in
Luke's Chapter 1? No other gospel writer inserted numbers throughout in
the same way Luke did. Could there be a hidden message here?
Luke 1:24: " . . . his wife Elizabeth conceived, and for five months she hid
herself . . ."
Luke 1:26: "In the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God . . ."
Luke 1:36: " . . . this is the sixth month with her who was called barren."
Luke 1:56: "And Mary remained with her about three months . . ."
Luke 1:59: "And on the eighth day they came to circumcise the child . . ."
Those are all the verses in the first chapter of the gospel of Luke that
contain numbers. The numbers are 5, 6, 6, 3, and 8.
5 x 6 x 6 x 3 x 8 = 4320. Does this number have any relationship to the sun
and/or the moon?
Fact: The diameter of the sun is 864,000 miles.
Fact: The diameter of the moon is 2,160 miles.
Halve 4320 = 2160, the diameter of the moon.
Double 432 000 = 864 000, the diameter of the sun.
The number 432 is the ONLY number that can be manipulated one time to
reach the numbers contained in the diameter of both the sun and the moon.
Oh! One more thing. Square 432: 432 x 432 = 186,624. That just happens to
be the speed of light in miles per second if there were no friction or
resistance. Of course men and women in the first century couldn't have
known about that. Or could they?
Can it be just a coincidence that the ONLY numbers in the first chapter of
Luke, when all are multiplied, equal a number that, when halved is the
diameter of the moon, when doubled (add two zeros) is the diameter of the
sun, and when squared (drop the zeros) is the speed of light?
Oh, by the way, Lux was the goddess of Light in Greek mythology.
Among the items found at Nag Hammadi in 1945, in addition to ancient
Jewish texts and texts with Gnostic undertones, was a short excerpt from
Plato’s Republic. This item is, in my opinion, far more important than has
been previously acknowledged. This puts Greek philosophy into the hands
of the people of Jesus' time and location and strengthens the argument for
his knowledge of, and probable indoctrination into, the ancient Secret
Schools that taught the Pythagorean philosophy that "Number is All."
But if you think these numbers in Chapter 1 are merely coincidence, have a
look at Luke’s Chapter 2.
Luke 2:21: "And at the end of eight days . . ."
Luke 2:24: ". . . and to offer a sacrifice . . . 'a pair of turtledoves, or two
young pigeons.'"
Luke 2:36 "And there was . . . Anna . . . seven years from her virginity . . ."
Luke 2:37: " . . . and as a widow till she was eighty-four."
Luke 2:42: "And when he was twelve years old . . ."
Luke 2:46: "After three days they found him in the temple . . ."
The ONLY numbers mentioned are: 8, 2, 84, 7, 12, and 3.
The functions required here become a little more complex than simple
multiplication and addition. You will recall that "pi" is the number necessary
to determine the circumference of a circle when you know its radius or
diameter. Most of us used 3 1/7 or 3.14 in our manual calculations. That is
the same as 22/7, and more precisely, it is 3.1428571. Mixing the ONLY
numbers used in Chapter 2 with pi, we find the following:
84 x 2 x pi = 528. One statute mile is 5280 feet.
84 x 3 x pi = 792. The mean diameter of the earth is 7920 miles.
84 x 12 x pi = 3,168. A square drawn around the earth will measure 31,680
miles.
Now, using all the numbers in Chapter 2 EXCEPT 84:
8 x 7 x 12 x 3 divided by 2 = 1008 x pi = 3168.
In addition to being the total of the sides of a square drawn around the
earth, students of gematria will immediately recognize 3168 as being the
number of Lord Jesus Christ. (Gematria is the process of replacing Greek
letters with corresponding numbers, then adding the numbers together.
The Greek letters for Lord Jesus Christ, when converted to numbers, total
3168.)
Chapter 1 tells us that the Truth Jesus taught pertained to light; Chapter 2
tells us they had knowledge about the earth, as well, and that the units used
to measure the earth, moon, sun, and the speed of light, were miles of 5,280
feet each.
Still think these numbers are simply coincidental? I’ll make one more
attempt to prove this hidden message via the numbers, then I have to move
on with the rest of the story and the secret message encoded within the
words.
Perhaps the best proof that the numbers aren't merely coincidental can be
found by looking at Luke's Chapter 9. There are fifteen numbers greater
than one in Chapter 9. The specific verses that contain these numbers are
listed and quoted in Chapter 6, along with the itemization of numbers and
verses for all other chapters of Luke's gospel.
The numbers, in order, are: 12, 2, 12, 5, 2, 5000, 50, 5, 2, 12, 3, 8, 2, 2, 3.
12 x 2 = 24
24 x 12 = 288
288 x 5 = 1440
1440 x 2 = 2880
2880 x 5000 = 14 400 000
14 400 000 x 50 = 720 000 000
720 000 000 x 5 = 3 600 000 000
3 600 000 000 x 2 = 7 200 000 000
7 200 000 000 x 12 = 86 400 000 000
86 400 000 000 x 3 = 259 200 000 000
259 200 000 000 x 8 = 2 073 600 000 000
2 073 600 000 000 x 2 = 4 147 200 000 000
4 147 200 000 000 x 2 = 8 294 400 000 000
8 294 400 000 000 x 3 = 24 883 200 000 000
Ridiculous!!! But wait. Take a closer look at that last number. For
convenience, ancient mathematicians frequently used 22/7 (3.1428571) as
pi. But a more accurate pi is 864/275. It takes a little more work to manually
calculate the circumference of a sphere using this larger number, but
sometimes, they did use it. Using the mean diameter of the earth, 7920
miles, and this slightly more accurate number for pi, the results are truly
amazing, considering from where that last product above was derived:
7920 miles x 864/275
7920 times 864 = 6,842,880
6,842,880 divided by 275 = 24,883.2 miles.
That's the circumference of the earth! And that's the very number reached
after multiplying all fifteen numbers in Luke's Chapter 9 after the zeros are
dropped from the end.
Anybody still claiming coincidence? Do you have any idea how I felt and
how long it took me to catch my breath when these numbers started doing
what they do? I’ve been studying sacred numbers and sacred geometry for
almost four years now, and no one to my knowledge has recognized the
truth about Lux gospel (that is the correct spelling!) and what it contains.
I hope I’ve piqued your curiosity enough to keep you reading. There are
volumes of information in Luke and Acts (same writer), and someone was
willing to risk his or her life to pass it on to us.
He, or she, or they, also left clues as to who they were and the truth about
the other biblical narratives and about what was being done to Jesus'
message and to those who attempted to save it. History tells us that many
early Christians were killed for teaching what Jesus taught. History also
tells us that the Gnostics (gnosis means knowledge) were declared heretics
by the early church leaders and their doctrines and teachings destroyed.
Even some modern fundamental Christians still use the word Gnostic
synonymously with heretic.
Wouldn’t it be something if the Gnostics had actually infiltrated the Church
and left the message of their truth about Jesus encoded in two books
selected to be a part of the official doctrine of the early Church, and at
exactly the same time the Church was killing the Gnostics and destroying
their books?
We provide overwhelming proof that they did just that! And we prove it
using the “official church doctrine,” the Holy Bible.
The "we" I refer to is that Energy force I previously mentioned. In the
beginning I tried to deny Its existence. I kept using words like coincidentally
and accidentally. Then the doorbell started ringing and the lights started
blinking and I started thinking--and reading.
Einstein's equations actually point to what John Dobson calls "an
apparitional Universe." (More information about Dobson can be found at
several websites, including:
www.space.com/scienceastronomy/astronomy/dobson_astronomer_000507.
html)
Many scientists agree with Dobson's apparitional universe theory, and if I
understand it correctly, it means that mass, matter--commmonly known as
stuff--is nothing but invisible energy spinning rapidly to create a standing
wave of vibrations. These vibrations enter our eyes and get labeled by our
programmed brain: house, car, baby. In other words, the human body can
be described as "a standing wave of spinning and vibrating energy in which
consciousness resides."
Look on the Internet for Brian Green's work on String Theory, or buy his
book, The Elegant Universe. Science appears to be on the verge of
confirming the existence of "parallel universes." The implications are
beyond our wildest imagination.
If the human body is nothing more than rapidly spinning energy which obeys
certain Laws of our physical Universe, it stands to reason that the same
energy could spin at different speeds, faster or slower, and the stuff that's
formed would be invisible to me. I can't see It or hear It, and It doesn't
control my fingers on the keyboard; It affects the electrical impulses firing in
my brain. The communication is purely energetic or electric. I still have to
do the hard research, but It gives me the ideas and directs me to the
sources.
Ancient cultures, and even some modern cultures, call these energies or
forces angels. Christianity tells many stories of angels and their
intervention in the lives of the faithful. The prolific biographer,
philosopher, and Greek of high standing, Mestrius Plutarchus (a.k.a.,
Plutarch of Chaeronea--circa. 45-125 ACE), believed that there was an
infinite hierarchy of beings that resided between the one unitary God and
mortal men and women. These spiritual beings experienced longer cycles
of birth and rebirth than mortals, but they had weaknesses of the mortal
kind and could be demoted into men or women in a subsequent existence,
just as men and women, he believed, could be promoted into angels. This is
a common feature of the doctrines of various Mystery Schools, both ancient
and modern.
I now believe that "angels" do exist and function in an invisible, but parallel,
Universe. And by the time I completed this book, it was apparent to me that
the Energy Force that directed me had been given a name by others before
me. They called It "Gabriel." And now, so do I.
