Those are not the only mysteries told by the church.
I have a problem with John and Jesus. I hope someone can help me with it. From what I have read and reasoned, Jesus seeks out John to baptize Jesus because Jesus wants to join Johns' cult. John does baptize Jesus and Jesus becomes a follower of John. Why then is it considered that John is an apostle of Jesus when, under the circumstances, Jesus becomes an apostle of John?
Why, also is John considered an apostle when it appears (I may be wrong about this, if so please correct me) that John dies before Jesus assumes his ministry.

You need to read "The Templar Revelation" by Lynn Picknett and Clive Prince, available through Corgi Books.
Not everyone believes the conventional way of looking at the relationship between these two men, and the way that you summarise their relationship is held as a belief by certain groups. This book should be easily available but if you can't get hold of a copy, let me know and I'll be happy to precee it for you. I'd do that now, but it's late, and it's a book worth reading anyway!
