Clemens Alexandrinus,
Origen, Eusebius, Jerome, and many other ancient church authorities deem the
General Epistle of Barnabas canonical and genuine. Dr. Bernard Sullivan, a
professor at Oxford University believed The General Epistle of Barnabas to be
genuine and that it was read widely in the churches at Alexandria. It is
supposed to have been written by Barnabas, an apostle and companion of Paul. It
is considered to have been written before the Epistle of Jude and the writings
of both Johns. Archbishop Wake, Dr. S. Clarke, Vossius, and Dupis also declared
it to be genuine. The paranormal occurrences of The General Epistle of Barnabas
are as follows.

For thus says the Scripture: And Moses
continued fasting forty days and forty nights in the mount; and he received the
covenant from the Lord, even the two tables of stone, written by the hand of
God.
God Speaks To Moses
3:9
But having turned themselves to
idols, they lost it; as the Lord also said to Moses, Moses, go down quickly, for
your people, whom you have brought forth out of Egypt have corrupted themselves,
and turned aside from the way which I commanded them. And Moses cast the two
tables out of his hands, and their covenant was broken so the love of Jesus
might be sealed in your hearts, to the hope of his faith.
God Speaks To The Lord
4:7
Because of this the Lord was content
to suffer for our souls, although he is the Lord of the whole earth, to whom God
said before the beginning of the world, Let us make man after our own image and
likeness.
Jesus Gives The Prophets The Gift
Of Prophecy
4:9
The prophets, having received from him
the gift of prophecy, spoke before concerning him:
Jesus Appeared In The Flesh
4:10
But he, that he might abolish death
and make known the resurrection from the dead, was content, as was necessary, to
appear in the flesh, that he might make good the promise given before to our
fathers, and preparing himself a new people, might demonstrate to them while he
was upon earth, that after the resurrection he would judge the world.
Jesus Did Many Signs And Wonders
4:11 And finally teaching the
people of Israel and doing many wonders and signs among them, he preached to
them and showed the exceeding great love which he had toward them.
Jesus Manifest Himself As The Son
Of God
4:13Then he clearly demonstrated
himself to be the Son of God. For had he not come in the flesh, how could men
have been able to look upon him so that they might be saved? 4:15
Therefore the Son of God came in the flesh for this cause, that he might fill up
the measure of their iniquity, who have persecuted his prophets to death. And
for the same reason also he suffered.
The Sun Is The Work of God's Hands

which was the work of his hands, and will hereafter cease to be, they are not
able to endure steadfastly to look against the rays of it.
Adam Was Formed From The Earth
5:9
Now learn what the spiritual meaning
of this is: It is as if it had been said, Put your trust in Jesus, who will be
manifested to you in the flesh. Man is the suffering earth, for out of the
substance of the earth Adam was formed.
God Creates Man
5: 12 For thus the Scripture says
concerning us, where it introduces the Father speaking to the Son; Let us make
man after our likeness and similitude; and let them have dominion over the
beasts of the earth, and over the fowls of the air, and the fish of the sea.
13
And when the Lord saw the man he
had formed, and that he was very good, he said, Increase and multiply, and
replenish the earth. And this he spoke to his son.
Jesus Will Come In The Clouds
6:12
So he then will be similar to what he
was on earth, the Jews were commanded to take two fair and equal goats so that
when they hereafter will see our Savior coming in the clouds of heaven, they may
be amazed at the analogy of the goats.
Moses Stretches Forth His Arms
11:3
And yet further he says by Moses, when
Israel was fighting with, and beaten by, a strange people, to the end that God
might teach them how that for their sins they were delivered to death, yes, the
Holy Spirit put it into the heart of Moses to represent both the sign of the
cross and of him that was to suffer so that they might know that if they did not
believe in him, they would be overcome forever. 4
Moses therefore piled up armor upon armor in the middle of a rising ground,
and standing up high above all of them, stretched forth his arms, and so Israel
again conquered. 5
But no sooner did he let down his hands, but they were again slain. And why
so? So they might know that except they trust in him, they cannot be saved.
A Brazen Serpent
11:9
Moses, who had commanded them, then
said, You must not make to yourselves any graven or molten image to be your God;
yet now did so himself so that he might represent to them the figure of the Lord
Jesus.
10
For he made a brazen serpent, and set it up on high, and called the people
together by a proclamation. When they came, they entreated Moses that he would
make an atonement for them and pray so they might be healed.
11
Then Moses spoke to them, saying: When any one among you will be bitten, let him
come to the serpent that is set upon the pole, and let him assuredly trust in
him, for though he be dead, yet he is able to give life, and presently he will
be saved; and so they did. See therefore how here also you have in this the
glory of Jesus, and that in him and to him are all things.
God Speaks To Rebecca
12:3 Isaac prayed for his wife
Rebecca because she was barren, and she conceived. Afterwards Rebecca went forth
to inquire of the Lord.

are two nations in your womb, and two people will come from your body; and the
one will have power over the other, and the greater will serve the lesser.
Understand here who was Isaac, and who was Rebecca, and of whom it was foretold
that this people will be greater than that.

And Moses continued fasting forty days and forty nights in Mount Sinai, to
receive the covenant of the Lord with the people.

two tables written with the finger of the Lord's hand in the Spirit. And when
Moses received them he brought them down to deliver them to the people.
14

Moses, get down quickly, for the people you brought out of the land of Egypt
have done wickedly.

heart.

Consider, my children, what it
signifies, that he finished them in six days. The meaning of it is this: that in
six thousand years the Lord God will bring all things to an end.
5
For with him one day is a thousand years, as he himself testifies, saying,
Behold this day will be as a thousand years. Therefore, children, in six days,
that is, in six thousand years, will all things be accomplished.
The Son Will Change The Sun, Moon,
And Stars
13:6 And he rested the seventh
day, means this: that when his Son will come, and abolish the season of the
Wicked One, and judge the ungodly, and will change the sun and the moon and the
stars, then he will gloriously rest in that seventh day.
The Eighth Day
13:9
Lastly he says to them, I cannot
stand your new moons and your Sabbaths. Consider what he means by it: the
Sabbaths, he says, that you now keep are not acceptable to me, but only those
which I have made, when resting from all things I shall begin the eighth day,
that is, the beginning of the other world.
Jesus Ascended To Heaven

showing himself to his disciples, ascended into heaven.
Heaven Is God's Throne
13:13 But learn therefore how the
Lord speaks, rendering the temple vain: Who has measured the full extent of
heaven, or the earth with his hand? Is it not I? Thus says the Lord, Heaven is
my throne, and the earth is my footstool. What is the house that you will build
me? Or what is the place of my rest? Know therefore that all their hope is vain.
Angels Are Leaders Of The Way Of
Light, Satan's Angels Are Leaders Of The Way Of Darkness
14:3 Let us now go on to the other
kind of knowledge and doctrine. There are two ways of doctrine and power: the
one of light, the other of darkness.
4
But there is a great deal of difference between these two ways; for over one are
appointed the angels of God, the leaders of the way of light; over the other,
the angels of Satan. And the one is the Lord from everlasting to everlasting;
the other is the prince of the time of unrighteousness.
