Chronicle of the Living Christ: The Life and Ministry of Jesus Christ : Foundations of Cosmic Christianity Paperback – Illustrated, May 1, 1996

I was particularly impressed with the daily activities given to Ann Catherine Emmerich's visions. The maps were very useful in relating Jesus' activities to the locations within the Holy Land. This was my purpose in ordering the book. There is so much more within the book that I had not expected, but the author certainly presents a credible mass of information.

I found the actual chronicle of Anne Catherine Emmerich, the nun who related her visions, fascinating. This day to day reliving of His steps was truly enlightening. The first part of the book relating to two babies born and the astrological influences, etc. didn't really capture my attention and after a while I just glossed over it.The maps of the time when Jesus was alive were also very interesting and helped to clarify quite a few items in the bible.Very interesting reading and recommended for all Christians.

The information on the practical, day to day, living in Jesus Christs life is very moving and new,... Trials and Love.

There is much useful information in this book, which is an attempt to harmonize what Rudolf Steiner indicated about the two Jesus children with what Anna Katharina Emmerick saw in her visions, but the chronology in this book only matches some of their indications, and Emmerick’s and Steiner’s indications also don’t agree with each other. Anna Katharina Emmerick does give conflicting information about when Jesus was born and also about the dates for Mary, indicating she may have seen information about two different individuals in each case, giving some confirmation to what Rudolf Steiner said.In general, the books about Anna Katharina Emmerick’s visions indicate Jesus was crucified in AD 30 and that the Jesus children were not born so far apart: 7 BC and 5 BC rather than 4 and a half years apart, which is what Robert Powell calculated. Rudolf Steiner said that they were born a few months apart. In the books about Anna Katharina Emmerick’s visions, it says Mary lived 13 years and 2 months or 14 years and 2 months after the Ascension, which would fit an AD 30 or 31 crucifixion if Mary died in AD 44. Robert Powell calculated that the Solomon Mary died in AD 44, but that is only 11 years after AD 33. Rudolf Steiner gave April 3, 33 as the date of Jesus' crucifixion in the calendar or 1912-1913 and also in a lecture he gave on May 7, 1912 and in an esoteric lesson on December 16, 1911, and Powell uses that date. In support of a 5 BC date of birth for the Nathan Jesus, Anna Katharina Emmerick said that Jesus was 33 years and 18 weeks old at the time of his death (early April AD 30) and that his mother died in the 48th year after his birth (AD 44). In support of a 7 BC date of birth for the Solomon Jesus, she said that he was born in about the 34th year (8/7 BC) of Herod's reign of 40 years (41 BC–1 BC), more than 7 years before our era, in Anno Mundi 3997 (8/7 BC), and that Herod died in Jesus' 5th, 6th, or 7th year (between lunar eclipse in January 1 BC and Passover 1 BC).Tiberius started co-reigning in AD 12, so counting the 15th year of the reign of Tiberius (Luke 3:1) from that year instead of the commonly used AD 14 would fit with an AD 26 baptism for Jesus and a 3 plus years ministry. Also, in The Fifth Gospel, Rudolf Steiner said Mary was in her 45th or 46th year the day before the baptism of Jesus by John; she would have turned 46 in AD 26 if she was born in 21 BC. Anna Katharina Emmerick said Mary was a little less than 64 years old at the time of her death.It would be interesting to see what the stars showed on the dates in an adjusted chronology and what further light could be thrown on the subject by looking at all of Clemens Brentano’s original notes of Anna Katharina Emmerick’s visions.In spite of all this, there is much valuable information in this book, and I also recommend his books Hermetic Astrology, Volumes 1 and 2, for those who would like more details about this subject.

This book is mainly based on Rudolf Steiner’s writings, Anne Catherine Emmerich’s writings, the Gospels, and the author’s knowledge on astronomy. The author spent many years in this investigation, so it seems that there were a lot of preparation for this book. The book includes the duration of Christ’s ministry which was approximately three and one-half years. The chronology includes the walks and predication of Jesus Christ. The book includes 40 maps with His walks on earth. All this information will complement all your previous knowledge of Christian matters. I recommend you highlight the walks on the maps and follow the chronology. This will let you capture some information especially foy you based on your own personal one. There is a lot of information you cannot find anywhere. You will notice that there were many people possessed by demons at the time of Christ, but you will not find an explanation on this. You will find many more examples of Jesus Christ’s healings, baptisms, miracles, praying alone to our Father, special teachings, and many other additional things you cannot find in the Gospels. It is interesting that you will find on page 248 a healing of some pagan children because they were suffering because of their parents’ worship of Moloch. Moloch is a high rank demon, Prince of the Land of Tears, Grand Cross of the Order of the Fly, who is associated to human sacrifices and behind the demonic impulse of the abortion cases of innocents. Moloch is associated to Beelzebuth, Supreme Chief of the Infernal Empire, founder of the Order of the Fly. You will find much information in this book, but the findings are personal and different for every reader. I really recommend this 10 star book.
