Ancient Coin Depicting Jesus as Serpent on Cross

The German Christian Gnostics who minted this thaler (silver coin)
in the 16th century. They link the crucifixion of Jesus, with this serpent-pillar.

One side of the coin is the crucifixion of Jesus. The other side of the coin is a serpent on a cross.

Could this represent half human half serpent? Or could Jesus have turned into his regular serpent body after crucifixion? Those are my theories.

It's a symbol, it is not trying to say Jesus was half snake-man.

The serpent represents wisdom.

Man... people can interpret anything how they want to interpret it. Seriously.

This is a short clip from the movie "Revelations" it shows the meanings for the symbols, the split snakes, the Ankh and Venus. It also shows that the word NAIL is interchangeable with KEY and that Jesus had to be nailed to a cross, to release his healing essence. Just as Mosses nailed a snake to a cross, to heal Egypt from disease.

Symbols - Ankh, Split Snakes, Venus

I have heard that symbology thing for years. I have done my own research into ancient texts and the wisdom symbology does not match. Read the ancient texts of Asia. They were referring to actual serpent beings that came from the skies on ariel vehicles that came from other planets when it came to snakes and serpents. They were worshipped as gods. Why would a symbol be worshipped as a god?? I'm not saying they were actual snakes, buts thats the way these serpent beings were depicted. The whole snake as a symbol of wisdom comes from a Western perspective of people who haven't done the research from other cultures around the world.

That videos from a Christian perspective full of metaphors, just like the bible itself.

Your "research" is only your interpretation of ancient myths and nothing more.

Do you even know anything about the Gnostics? Do you know how they PURPOSELY used fictional symbols to communicate spiritual truths? Do you know that most of their information was completely made up?

No, of course you don't know these things, because you filter out any evidence that contradicts your idea that reptilians are real, physical beings.

The Gnostics were spot-on spiritually, and they used fictional narratives to communicate their truths. PURPOSELY. They didn't write literally true things! Which is why it was considered such blasphemy by them to think that Jesus Christ was ever a real person.

Why don't you do a little more "research" on Gnosticism then come back and talk about it.

Jesus is part of the snake cult that was common around india, the Nagas, and the Middle east, even as far as Scandanavia, there are serpent churches in Norway for instance, across the Atlantic mounds were built in the shape of serpents in North and South America snakes were venerated, indeed, globally. The death of the prophet was seen as the body being the skin of the snake which had sloughed off and his conscious being had gone elsewhere.

Have you done your research. There's way more than myths out there. Have you seen the paintings, statues of these beings? Have you read the Military documents and Government employees who have come forth? If you haven't I suggesest you do some research.

Do you even know anything about the Gnostics? Do you know how they PURPOSELY used fictional symbols to communicate spiritual truths? Do you know that most of their information was completely made up?

Provide me with some Ancient texts that prove this, that which has nothing to do with Christian interpritation.

No, of course you don't know these things, because you filter out any evidence that contradicts your idea that reptilians are real, physical beings.

Still you cant provide any evidence suggesting otherwise.

Everything you just wrote still doesn't prove anything about what you said about snake being a symbol of wisdom. Snake worship has been around way before the time of Christianity and spread through out the world.

Some Gnostic sects honored the snake. They did not view the snake as a seducer who led the first couple into sinful behavior. Rather, they saw him as a liberator who brought knowledge to Adam and Eve by convincing them to eat of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil and thus to become fully human.

For the Ophites or Naassene Gnostics the snake was medium of revelation and a mouthpeice of the most sublime god.

According to "Gnosis: The Nature and History of gnosticism" The snake was worshipped as the Cthonic diety and fertility.

Lets take a look at Cthon.

Cthons were inhabitants of the Coruscant Underworld. They were zombie-like humanoids who preyed on living flesh (similar to what Arizona Wilder and Alex Collier said).

Their ancestors were Humans who were banished from the surface for their crimes, subsequently residing in the darkness of the undercity for thousands of years, which genetically changed them into terrifying creatures. (similar to what employees at Dulce Military base said).

Visually, they appeared like decaying corpses with loose flaps of flesh, stringy, dirty hair, and a lipless mouth filled with sharp teeth. Skin grew to cover their eyes; there was an egg-like organ where the eye could be seen moving restlessly while sealed within its sockets. If clothed at all, they wore nothing but simple loincloths.

Chthon was "born" after the Demiurge seeded the planet Earth. (similar to almost all UFO and ancient texts)

Depiction of the Demiurge on a Gnostic gem in Bernard de Montfaucon’s similar to Naga's of Asia pre-Christianity

Now that doesn't sound like a symbol of wisdom to me:D Now if the Gnostics made all of this up like you say:D why is it so similar to ancient texts, stories and images pre-dating Gnosticism and Christianity?
