We buy books, flock to theaters and watch hours of television documentaries to learn the secret of the ancient relic known as the Holy Grail. However, as we find ourselves in this age, surely the first generation cannot be held by it. In history it has been said that Gradale was sought after by princes, fortified by secret societies, so that it might also possess supernatural power or secrets, which, if introduced, would overwhelm the foundation of Christianity, as we know it.
But with all the so-called Grail, what do we really know about it? And after many centuries, how can we know who to believe and what not to believe? Let’s start with the origins of the Grail and work our way up to the present day in an attempt to shake fiction out of things.
What we know for sure is that the story of the “Holy Grail” originated in one place, and one place only, and that is the Bible. But for The Last Supper there would be no memory, no knowledge. of the item we know today as the Holy Grail. Thus, using a bit of deduction: If we believe that it is thin, then we must acknowledge our very knowledge of its very original source, the Bible. Further, if we believe that Gradalus and the Holy Scriptures are responsible for our knowledge of their existence, we must admit that the Holy Scriptures must not only be the first, but also have some authority in the whole matter. In short, if you believe that the Grail is because the Bible says so, then you are ready to believe what the Bible says about the Grail.
Then what, not does the Bible say about the Holy Grail? How is it described, what are its powers and what is it? Jesus and the newly emerging Christians of his time?
OK, I’ll grab all your bibles. If you don’t have one, go buy one, and if you can’t afford one, send me your name and email address and I’ll give you one for free. A Bible will be the key to understanding things from the plot in both this gradual study and the others. quickly too. If you don’t know your Bible, get to know it. He read it. Movies, books and other forms of media can be very misleading, sometimes presenting statements that are sound biblical, but are in fact purely fictional. If, as I said, how John the Apostle was persecuted by the Romans in the book of 1 Heth. Chapter XIV. I suspect some, as long as the story is compelling, hang on every word. Against men who know their Bibles, I expect fully aware that I am a fake, to mislead them by spreading a false Testament. The first book of the Hittites is not in the Bible and to “not spot” you need to know what the Bible says.
For beginners: the Bible is divided into two main parts; Old and New Testament. The Old Testament was written BEFORE the life of Jesus. The New Testament is a collection of books that tells about life, death, resurrection, and doctrine. and they prophesy. The reading of the Holy Grail is found in the New Testament in three of the first four books, namely the Gospels.
The four Gospels, the books of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, all describe the events of The Last Supper, but only Matthew, Mark, Luke, the cup of milk that Jesus shared with his disciples at that meal. In the second book, John recounts many of the events surrounding the Last Supper, but does not mention the use of the gradation in his narrative. The biblical laws of the Last Supper, which he will discuss, begin with Matthew 26:17, Mark. By doing this, you will find that the day of the Last Supper is not just any ordinary day, but the beginning of Jewish religious holidays. The festival is called “Easter”. The celebration of Passover is a commemoration of God’s deliverance of the Jewish people, the “Nation of Israel,” from slavery at the hands of the Egyptians in about 1300 BC. Passover reminds the Jews that God loves them and honors his covenants, that is, he keeps his promises. (see the book of Exodus in the Old Testament for the whole story of Jewish slavery and deliverance from Egypt).
It was Easter, and still the most important holiday was initiated by the solemn “Easter” after sunset with the first evening service of the celebration. Jesus and his disciples would certainly have needed somewhere to keep this supper holiday, but since Jesus had been working there in the main mobile ministry, the plans for the celebration had not been discussed. Seeing this, two of his disciples asked Jesus where he wanted to eat the Passover. And he ordered them to come to the next village and follow the man who wanted to his house, where the master showed them an upper room where a feast was being prepared. But they followed his orders and found everything just as Jesus had said.
The Last Supper
According to the Scriptures, the cup, or cup, was used by Jesus and his twelve disciples, who met in the upper room to eat the Passover. Likewise, the three previous four books of the New Testament tell the story; When he had given thanks at the meal, Jesus passed the cup of wine to his disciples and told them to divide it among themselves. In the same way, Jesus passed the bread, saying that the wine and the bread represented his blood and body, which would be poured out and broken for the remission of sins. He told them that there was a “new covenant” with them. And he told his disciples to do this in remembrance of me. Christians today recreate this event which is called “Communion”.
Did you see the riddle here? While the whole Nation of Israel is actively reminded at Passover that God will keep His promises, here we see Jesus making a new promiseto a new group of believers. This is the pivotal moment in which the Christians were derived from the Jews. The nation of Israel does not acknowledge or recognize Jesus as the Savior. His broken body and shed blood so that they do not recognize the new covenant, which promises the remission of sins. Christians do. Christians accept the New Covenant, which began at the Last Supper with wine and bread, and believe that Jesus is and is the Son of God and that he sacrificed himself for the forgiveness of sins.
So what does the Bible show about gradualism? Perhaps unfairly and probably offensively to some, the Bible only mentions that Jesus used the “cup” to share wine with the Apostles. In fact, in the books of Matthew, Mark and Luke we only see three words which we call what we now call the Holy Grail: Matthew 26:27 and Mark 14,23. >Cup” and “it” and while Luke 22 uses no elaboration “cup” is mentioned at least twice, once in verse 17 and then again verse
So there we have; from the sixty-six books and more than three quarters of a million words found in the Bible, the sense that the “Holy Grail” has a ratio of 12 words; He used three words 4 times.
Have you also noticed how often the word “grail” or “holy grail” appears in the Bible? If you were cashed, you would have no total. It’s just this magical, mystical cup that everyone from Hitler to Monty Python has been asked not to even mention. name in the Bible Wow, it’s almost like the grail itself isn’t it very interesting…? Isn’t it, or should it not be so held?
Notice what else the Bible does not mention about the gradual? Well, when you picture a staircase in your mind, what do you see? If your mind’s eye offers you a golden, encrusted cup fit for a king, you may want to rethink your circumstances. First, the Bible gives absolutely no description of what a “cup” is. Then you must remember that Jesus practiced a life of poverty. He did not have, nor did he need, donkey travelers to advertise his possessions as he traveled from city to city with his large collection of golden bowls. He didn’t have any memory. To communicate the importance of this practice, he describes wealth as an obstacle to piety, as it is easier for a camel to be pierced by a needle than a rich man to enter the Kingdom of God. Knowing this, what deep character would it have taken for Jesus to drink from a precious or elaborate vessel? In fact, if the Last Supper was any reflection of the rest of Jesus’ life, I would venture to say that his circumstances were modest and humble. Some plan for a day in Heaven ask Jesus about this. My guess is that if the technologies and products of Jesus’ time were available today, we might be looking for the “Holy Paper Chalice” rather than the scapula.
What else did the Scripture not gratify? I have not seen one notice of any supernatural powers attributed to him, or anything else inanimate in the New Testament. Granted, the Ark of the Covenant is notable in the Old Testament, which the Bible clearly declares to be powerful. (Hey, look; one thing for a covenant, another for a reminder that God keeps his promises).
Generations of Jews lived with the Ark of the Covenant in their temple. They carried it with them from place to place, protecting and reproaching it, as the container promised the most sacred things. They knew without a doubt that the Ark was powerful and that what it contained, OF Godthru had experienced nothing less than first hand. At the extreme end of the holy scale of relics is Gradale, who was neither powerful nor from God. There was a cup, mentioned 4 times, never described, never called sacred, perhaps provided by the same person who also provided the plate, the table and the bread pillows on which Jesus and his disciples sat down and after the meal. Surprisingly, I didn’t notice the recent archaeological dig to uncover the truth behind the Bread Basket… Why am I surprised?
What is this cup that has pierced us so? And if the Bible is not where we learned the supernatural powers of the Grail, the mystical history and the ecclesiastical threat secrets of how we got these ideas?
Keep calm: Everything starts somewhere…
