The mind-expanding wisdom of the Emerald Tablet, simplified!

The manual consists of 14 cryptic, symbolic statements that many have tried to decipher over the course of thousands of years.

They seem to assume that the church apostatized from true Christianity after it gained cultural influence in the time of Constantine, and that the faith was only later recovered by the 16th-century Reformers or even the 18th-century revivalists. As a result, the riches and wisdom of the medieval period have remained largely inaccessible to modern Protestants.
