An excellent book on early christian history!

Very well-researched, interesting history utilizing authenticated church records which explain clearly how the Bible was compiled, how the identity of Jesus/God was determined but never 100% agreed upon (political committee of church leaders under the direction of Constantine 325 AD), and even how the early christian records were selected bringing us the Bible we have today. For instance, the Bishop of Alexandria; Athaniaus (sp) ordered the destruction of ALL early christian records EXCEPT those which he politically approved of. Divinely inspired, the early egyptian Christian monks hid up those precious early christian records, Athaniaus had ordered to be burned. These records have now come forth, known as the Naghammadi records which include books found with the 3 separately, divinely preserved "Gospel of Mary" records. The records this Christian Bishop wanted destroyed reverse the 2,000 years of women being suppressed and show the early political corruption of religion 300 years after Christ. Read this true history book then go watch the DaVinci Code. History proves why Jesus visited Mary Magdalene before the other men apostles - who denied him & ran away in fear for their lives. Women should be preaching/leading in all religions today - men have politically suppressed women; who were/are also His apostles/disciples.
