basille: To me, other than the proposition of a large v shape in between Jesus and the person on his right in the painting of the last supper, all Dan browns (and also all other researchers) writings towards this issue has strong and valid points that proves possibilities if not exposes the truth itself.
Some quotes from the Gospel of Mary First discovered in 1896.
Did Jesus love Mary more than his disciples? well this quote seem to suggest such, which means Mary was no ordinary woman to him.
Also
So yes! there was obviously a relationship between Jesus and Mary Madelene.
Bros God bless you..... somebody sees reason with me.....The signs are just too obvious to ignore |

Christianity Etc › Was There A Relationship Between Jesus And Mary Magdalene? by Ericardo7(op): 4:54pm On Feb 05, 2015 |
The Jesus-Magdalene union has been explored ad nauseum by many modern historians. Mary Magdalene traveled with Jesus as one of His followers. She was present at His two most important moments: the crucifixion and the resurrection. Within the four Gospels she is named at least 12 times, more than most of the apostles. Historians view the Gospel references as describing her as courageous, brave enough to stand by Jesus in His hours of suffering, death and beyond. The Gospels of Mark says that Jesus had cast 7 demons out of her (Mark 16:9). Note that these "demons" may refer to a complex illness, not any form of sinfulness.
In the Gnostic Gospels, copies of the Nag Hammadi and Dead Sea scrolls contain certain stories that prove there was a relationship between them. According to their Gospel of Philip "...and the [bold] companion [/bold] of the saviour is Mary Magdalene. Christ loved her more than all the disciples and used to kiss her on the mouth." The word you should take not of here is "COMPANION ". As any Aramaic scholar will tell you, the word 'companion' in those days literally meant SPOUSE.
Mary Magdalene is claimed by many historians to be of royal descent, The House of Benjamin, to be precise. It only makes sense that Christ who also had royal blood (from The House of David) would consort with someone who also had royal blood, as it is in almost all traditions and customs.
Historians also speak of a highly explosive manuscript known as "The Magdalene Diaries"- Mary Magdalene's personal account of her relationship with Christ, His crucifixion and her time in France.
Also is the fact that Jesus was a rabbi. According to Hebrew customs, for one to be a rabbI and lead a congregation, he was to be qualified as well as married. This was to enable him lead his congregation with the assistance of his wife as well make the man a role model for the members of the congregation to emulate. From this, it means Jesus could have never been a rabbi without having to be married, and which other person was to be his wife than Mary Magdalene.
Another instance that supports this claim is the event of Christ's resurrection morning. The Bible tells us that Mary Magdalene and other women to the grave of Christ to anoint His body. This was right given only to the wife of the deceased according to Hebrew customs. This means that Mary Magdalene would only have the power to anoint the naked body of Jesus Christ only if she was his wife. Startling truth, right? Yes I felt the same way when I stumbled upon this fact during my research. If there was one person who had the right to anoint the body of Christ, that would be His wife, and who else would fit the position but Mary Magdalene.
Lastly, is one incontestable fact. Christ's first appearance. When Jesus died and resurrected, Mary Magdalene was the first person He appeared to. Now let's apply common sense here again. If you were in Jesus' shoes, who would you appear to first? Your wife or girlfriend right? Of course. I'd do exactly the same. After defeating death and claiming the keys to he'll, I bet Jesus must have been so happy to finally appear to the people He loved the most. Starting with the number one in the pecking order. He didn't choose Peter, His right hand man, He didn't choose John whom He loved the most among His disciples, He didn't choose His own mother. No. Instead He choose Mary Magdalene! If nothing else has convinced you there was something extra between them, this should. Jesus chose to appear to the person He must have loved the most above all. Mary Magdalene must have held a special reverence with Our Lord and Saviour. She must have been His number one.
CONCLUSION ● It is clear from the Gospels that Mary Magdalene had a great love for Jesus. She had been freed by him from possession by seven devils, had followed him as a disciple, ministering to him from her means (Luke 8:2-3), and had been with Mary, the Mother of Jesus and the other women when Jesus was crucified (Mark 15:40-41). She was, according to the Gospels, the first person to whom Jesus appeared after the resurrection, after searching for him tearfully (John 20:11-18). Hence the veneration which the Church has had for her as a witness to the risen Christ. FROM THE EVIDENCES ABOVE, IT SHOWS THEY MUST HAVE HAD SOMETHING MORE THAN A MASTER-FOLLOWER RELATIONSHIP. IF INDEED THEY WERE LOVERS OR HUSBAND AND WIFE WE MAY ACTUALLY NEVER KNOW FOR SURE AS WE DO NO HAVE PHYSICAL ACCESS EITHER OF THEM...
I HOPE THIS PIECE HAS ENLIGHTENED A LOT OF US ESPECIALLY CHRISTIANS... SHALLOM! |

Romance › Re: Its Been 10yrs And He Still Doesn't Have Plans For Marriage by Ericardo7(m): 9:18am On Feb 03, 2015 |
faceless04: I read a story here where an angry guy shot a couple at their wedding reception because the bride left him for another man and this kept me wondering if my boyfriend can actually do same...........here is my story.
I've been in a relationship with this guy for 10years nw (yes, 10years). It all started in 2005 when we met, fell in love. He was and is still my first and only love. I was enjoying the relationship until 2years ago(though we've had our share of misunderstanding, I wldnt want to go into that) when I started thinking of settling down. I indirectly asked him if he had any plan of marrying me and I was shocked by the response I got. He said he doesn't believe in marriage, that everything is about understanding. I can move in,start producing babies for him but he can never carryout any marriage rites.
I thought he wasn't serious until last year when I asked him thesame question, he gave me thesame answer. But this time, I told him that I don't Share thesame view with him and that we need to go our separate ways. Since then he has been warning me that he will kill any man I get married to, that he cannt stand seeing me with another man........
Infact, I can't write down how the past year has been. I still love him and there is no doubt that he loves me too. But the big problem is that we are so so different, our views and vision are wide apart. I knw I can just forget about him and move on with my life but he wldnt let me be. He is always there at my door step, my office, giving 20 missed calls. Sometimes, I just wish I can relocate and start a new life, but I can't leave my job,not with this high rate of unemployment.
I forgot to mention that he is not the faithful type, though he doent flaunt it to my face but I just get to know about it one way or the other. I really need advice on what to do,because even though I still have a soft spot for him, I don't want to continue with the relationship. If na school you go for that ten years, you for dey do ur Ph.D now o.. BTW, that guy is no good for you, unless you're comfortable being "Lord of the Rings" |

Education › Fupre Students Protest Fee Hike, Barricade East-West Road by Ericardo7(op): 6:51am On Jan 27, 2015 |
Students of the Federal University of Petroleum Resources Effurun (FUPRE), Delta State, allegedly protesting an increase in fees by the university authorities on Monday barricaded the Warri end of the strategic East-West Road. Although the protest was meant to be as peaceful as possible and without unduly disrupting social and economic activities of residents, the protesters later created barriers on the busy highway connecting Delta with most South-South states of Nigeria through the oil city of Warri. The resort to barricading the Warri/Effurun-Ughelli portion of the East- West Road following breakdown of negotiations between the FUPRE management and representatives of the students. The students claimed that under the new arrangement, the FUPRE authorities have directed old students of the institution to pay N55,000 as against N26,400 charged previously. Similarly, the charge for freshers has been jacked up to N90,000 from the N46,000 fresh students paid in the past. The students further said several other charges have also bee increased by the school authorities, including "Acceptance Fee" and "Hostel Fee", which the authorities claimed were meant to "develop the institution." The placard-bearing students said that they wanted to alert members of the public to the seeming commencement of the process to commercialize education at the nation's first specialized petroleum resources university, stressing that they could not afford the new fees of charges. The students also called on President Goodluck Jonathan to intervene in the interest of the institution, saying the sudden increase announced by FUPRE might be politically motivated and intended to create fresh crisis for the Jonathan administration at this critical election.
