and thus began his ministry.

Horus had 12 disciples he travelled about with,

performing miracles such as healing the sick

and walking on water.

Horus was known by many gestural names

such as "The Truth", "The Light"

"God's Anointed Son", "The Good Shepherd",

"The Lamb of God" and many others.

After being betrayed by Typhon, Horus was crucified,

buried for three days and thus resurrected.

These atributes of Horus, whether original or not,

seem to permeate many cultures of the world

for many other gods have found to have

the same general mythological structure.

Attis of Phrygia,

born of a virgin Nana on December 25th.

Crucified, placed in a tomb

and after three days was resurrected.

Krishna of India, born of a virgin Devaki

with a star in the east signaling his coming.

He performed miracles with his disciples

and upon his death was resurrected.

Dionysus of Greece,

born of a virgin on December 25th,

was a travelling teacher who performed miracles

such as turning water into wine.

He was referred to as "The King of Kings",

"God's only begotten Son", "The Alpha and Omega" and many others.

And upon his death he was resurrected.

Mithra of Persia,

born of a virgin on December 25th.

He had 12 disciples and performed miracles.

And upon his death was buried for three days

and thus resurrected.

He was also referred to as "The Truth",

"The Light" and many others.

Interestingly,

the sacred day of worship of Mithra was Sunday.

The fact of the matter is, there are numerous saviours

from different periods from all over the world

which subscribe to these general characteristics.

The question remains - why these attributes?

Why the virgin birth on December 25th?

Why death for three days and inevitable resurrection?

Why 12 disciples or followers?

To find out, let's examine the most recent

of the solar messiahs.

Jesus Christ was born of the virgin Mary

on December 25th in Bethlehem.

His birth was announced by a star in the east

which three kings were managed to follow

to locate and adorn a new saviour.

He was a child teacher at 12 and at the age of 30

he was baptized by John the Baptist.

And thus began his ministry.

Jesus had 12 disciples which he travelled about with,

performing miracles such as healing the sick,

walking on water, raising the dead

He was also known as "The King of Kings", "The Son of God",

"The Light of the world", "The Alpha and Omega",

"The Lamb of God" and many many others.

After being betrayed by his disciple Judas

and sold for 30 pieces of silver

he was crucified, placed in a tomb

and after three days he was resurrected

and ascended into heaven.

First of all, the birth sequence
