These What Makes It Intriguing



INTRODUCTION: Dear viewers, Your are about to view a blog that is faith sensitive. All of the posts below implies the author's data gathered (based on reading books,articles,etc.). These may be truth or fallacies.











The Holy Grail


The Holy Grail was an object used by Christ during The Last Supper. Many speculations said that this was given to Joseph of Arimathea and he deliver it to Great Britain. This is half Christian folklore and Celtic myth of a cauldron with superpowers.


The Holy Grail was indeed a symbol of Christ's self offering but, it also symbolizes secrets about the past that may shaken the foundations of Christianity.







The Pentacle/ Five-pointed Star

This symbol also has banged the whole world. During the early pre-Christian time, this was the symbol for "Divine Nature" because of its symmetrical lines crossing each lines together. This means balance, just like nature. Since then, pagans recognize this as symbols for their Divine God.
But when Christianity reigns, this was symbolized as the sign of the Devil, Satan's star.

























Baphomet


Baphomet was now the real symbol for Christ's greatest enemy.Satan. But before this became its symbol did you know that this was the symbol for Divinity during pagan times? Baphomet the ram is the god of  fertility.
