If you're a Christian, or if you're simply interested in the history of the Christian Church, you've probably wondered why the ancient authors of the New Testament left out any mention of Jesus' whereabouts during His teens and twenties, the all-important developmental years when adolescents transform into adults, get an education, begin work, get married, and have children. This entire piece of Jesus' life story has been omitted from the Bible, leaving us with an incomplete biography of the most beloved and well-known figure in world history.In his fascinating and informative book, The Greatest Jesus Mystery of All Time: Where Was Christ Between the Ages of 12 and 30? Christian Bible scholar and award-winning historian Lochlainn Seabrook provides an in-depth examination of this lost, perhaps even censored, historical span known as "The Missing Years of Jesus." As this 2,000 year old enigma unfolds the author discusses various theories on why the four Evangelists might have "ignored" this 18 year period, why the Church may not have wanted this information published, and more importantly, where Jesus might have been during this time.Mr. Seabrook brings to light vital clues and compelling evidence, from both biblical and extrabiblical material, showing that Jesus most likely spent many of his "Silent Years" in Central Asia, where to this day-from Pakistan to China, from India to Mongolia- there is a widespread traditional belief that Christ traveled across the region in his teens and twenties, studying and teaching under various Buddhist, Hindu, and Tibetan spiritual masters. To support these theories Mr. Seabrook includes the complete transcript of an ancient Buddhist manuscript purported to have been written in the years following Jesus' death, which details the Master's time in such countries as India, Nepal, and Tibet. The author, a comparative religionist, does not claim to have irrefutable proof, but rather presents his findings clearly and objectively, allowing the reader to decide.Also included is an introduction, source notes, index, and an extensive bibliography, making this a must-read for all serious students of Jesus, Christianity, and history. The Greatest Jesus Mystery of All Time is available in paperback and hardcover.

No one knows what day Jesus was born, his birthday was not celebrated in the First Century, Christmas is not mentioned in the Bible, and the holiday was banned by English and American Christians in the 1600s. Why then do we observe His birthday on December 25? A clue comes from the early Church Fathers, who declared that "Christianity has always existed and was practiced by Pagans long prior to the birth of Jesus." Thus, according to the highest Church authorities, Christianity, and in turn Christmas, predated Christ. How is this possible?Award-winning Christian author, Bible scholar, and Southern historian Colonel Lochlainn Seabrook provides the answer in his fascinating and exhaustively researched book Christmas Before Christianity. The spiritual truths which form the basis of Christianity were already well known to prehistoric peoples, who held a special reverence for our neighborhood star, the Sun, which they variously called Krs, Crs, Hrs, Krst, Karas, Karast, Kris, Krish, Krist, and Chris. During the Graeco-Roman period, these words, along with the many religious beliefs and myths that accompanied them, were absorbed as Chrestos or Christos, which became "Christ" in modern English, assimilating the prehistoric Sun-God into the ancient Son-God.Ten years in the making, Christmas Before Christianity is a fast-reading but in-depth 300-page work based on comparative religion and comparative mythology (as well as archaeology, social anthropology, and etymology), that explores the vast pre-Christian foundations of humanity's most popular holiday, including the many Pagan gods, goddesses, myths, rituals, legends, ceremonies, customs, and beliefs that contributed to its creation and development. Every facet of Christmas is examined, from the religious views of prehistoric vegetation cults with their emphasis on astrology and a female supreme being, to the astronomical origins of the Nativity story and Santa Claus; from the practice of decorating Christmas trees, hanging stockings, lighting candles, burning the Yule log, singing carols, and exchanging gifts, to the traditions of displaying holly, wreaths, and mistletoe, eating plum pudding, candies, turkey, and mince pie, drinking cider and eggnog, performing pantomime, and giving out Christmas cards. Though Colonel Seabrook examines the origins of Christmas traditions of countries and societies all over the world, special emphasis is laid on ancient Egypt, where a majority of our modern "Christmas traditions" can be traced.Christmas Before Christianity: How the Birthday of the "Sun" Became the Birthday of the "Son," is a sensational work that will not only provoke discussion, but will also inspire a renewed appreciation for both the religion of our Lord and for the sacred annual celebration of His birth. Available in paperback and hardcover. "Southern Conservatives, U.S. President Thomas Jefferson and Confederate General Albert Pike, both who were appalled by the Paganization of the historical Jesus, would have heartily endorsed this book." - THE PUBLISHERAcclaimed neo-Victorian author and historian Lochlainn Seabrook is one of the most prolific and popular writers in the world today, with literary works ranging from astronomy to zoology.
