The Messiah came from Asia and he was Nestorian.I do.
The Nestorians were followers of Nestorius, a Christian theologian and Patriarch of Constantinople in the 5th century.
Nestorius's main theological disagreement was with the prevailing Christological doctrine of the time, which held that Jesus Christ had one nature that combined both divine and human aspects. Nestorius argued for a more distinct separation between the divine and human natures of Christ, asserting that Christ had two distinct natures – one divine and one human – and that they were united in a moral or personal union rather than a substantial one. This view became known as Nestorianism.
Now, how do you see them as relevant to my post you were ostensibly replying to?
That's tongue-in-cheek of course... but I want to bring up the salient points of this topic behind the fun-joking.
Look at the "Prester John" Wikipedia page (it talks about the Nestorians in Central Asia in the 13th century and that's where we have to find the Messiah or his reincarnation in todays present day.).
Prester John - Wikipedia
excerpt:
Prester John
"Preste" as the Emperor of Ethiopia, enthroned on a map of East Africa. From an atlas by the Portuguese cartographer Diogo Homem for Queen Mary, c. 1555–1559. (British Library)
Prester John (Latin: Presbyter Ioannes) was a legendary Christian patriarch, presbyter, and king. Stories popular in Europe in the 12th to the 17th centuries told of a Nestorian patriarch and king who was said to rule over a Christian nation lost amid the pagans and Muslims in the Orient.[1]: 28 The accounts were often embellished with various tropes of medieval popular fantasy, depicting Prester John as a descendant of the Three Magi, ruling a kingdom full of riches, marvels, and strange creatures.

parousia, so the lost christian tribe of eastern nestorian christians are the ones that put in motion the revelation of Jesus' Second Coming. There's a lot of betrayal and conflict with the Nestorians. The Templars were in conflict with them and with the Armenians and the Crusaders. It was a mixed choice of interests and a pitched battle to the death.
Seeing through it all, is a complicated and patient work of scrutiny, study and meditative reflection. I hope I'm helping here and not creating confusion. Please tell me if that's the case and I'll try to make things right. But it's obvious that delving into Middle Eastern Christianity (of the 13th century in the Holy Land) is confusing for Christians in the West that have more or less completely cut off all links to the orginal Christians of the Bible. That's harsh to say so. But it's the unfortunate truth. Eastern Christians are seen as strangely "unChristian" by European Western Christians, whereas the Eastern Christians like the Copts in fact, were already Christians back in history when the French were still pagan sun worshippers. So writing off the Eastern Christians as "unchristian", well that's like the pot calling the kettle black!!!! hahaha! true.
Can I explain further or is that enough for now?
