We all have heard of the sacred relics "lost" to the world supposedly forever. The Ark of Moses, the Spear that pierced Christ's body on the cross, the tables containing the Ten Commandments, and of course…the one we keep hearing about…the HOLY GRAIL. WHAT they are probably is equally as important as WHERE they are now. Theories abound. About as many as the all the television shows and YouTube clips we all see over and over popping up all over the last few years. Maybe people just want to believe they didn’t disappear. And then again…if we now don’t know just WHERE these precious items of faith are…then perhaps they are gone forever. But, I think not. If its true that GOOD triumphs over EVIL, and that EVIL always loses to GOOD, I have to believe a few truths as I see them. Let me explain.
The Ark of the Covenant was kept in the Temple of Solomon, and within it supposedly were the tablets of the Ten Commandments given to Moses. The Temple of Solomon was destroyed and supposedly those artifacts were lost forever. Or were they? It is known that the original 9 Knights Templar camped in what was the stables of Solomon under the Temple Mount and they dug below for 9 years straight. What they found is not precisely known. What is known is they made a hasty retreat back to Europe all of a sudden, and went from being poor-monastic Knights of Christ, to being fabulously wealthy. What they found beneath the ruins of Solomon's Temple is open to speculation. But when they returned, they started what became the 1st banking industries in the world…the 1st Banks. And they built castles, cathedrals, forts and churchs all around the then known world. Hard to do when you are a group of 'poor' warrior monks dedicted to defending the Holy Land! For the sake of time and space, lets just add that whatever the HOLY GRAIL is and whether or not the Templars Knights or King Arthur found it, that they along with LONGINUS, the Spear of Destiny, my theory is the same. Its that God is great, and Good triumphs over Evil.
We hear so much about "2012" and the "End of Days", that half the world is running out and buying supplies (like they would do any good if the world ended!). But I think I can put it into perspective at least a little. Are we to believe that evil is strong enough to win out in the end? That God would create something so beautiful as our world and let it be destroyed? Or that the Ten Commandment Tablets and the Ark of the Covenant would be lost forever? What did we do to deserve that? Why would God punish us? Wait, wait, wait a cotton-pickin' minute! OF COURSE we have to pay and atone for our sins. Im sure not saying that we don’t. We all will have to answer for the good and bad in our own lives. After all. Heaven is a big, big, BIG place. But vacancies are limited and by invitation only! Maybe I can clear it up just a little on this Easter day of hope for all.
I cannot believe that God would let these religious relics stay lost. Or that we would never ever find the Grail or Ark or Tablets…or know where they've been all these years. Since God is Great and Good trumps Evil, it stands to reason that no matter how many Nuclear wars happen and destroys most of the planet, in the end GOOD will still win out. It’s the old 'positive-versus-negative' theory. Opposites attract. If it should happen that we reach the brink and all seems lost, you can bet your last nickel that the skies will open up, and angels with firey swords will rain down to destroy our enemies in the name of GOD. I know that. And you my friends HAVE to believe it as well.
There would be no reason for God, or Heaven, or Jesus if not to vanquish our enemies and triumph over Evil. And out of nowhere and their long places of hiding, these Holy Relics so long sought for, will suddenly appear from their secret hiding places. This alone will prove the existence the God, and that the faithful and all those gone before us were always right. It HAS to be that way. It HAS to. If these things are Of GOD, and made BY GOD, and represents GOD and our faith…then how and why would they stay hidden? It makes no sense. Good does overcome evil every time. At least, most of the time. I know, sometimes its pretty close, and we still lose to evil, but that’s how the world works. We have to TRY to overcome the odds. But what Im saying comes do to the facts of the matter.
GOD…being GOOD, has blessed us with many things. And one day the Ark, and the Tablets and Grail will again appear and prove it once and for all that they are real. You see my friends, it just HAS to be that way. If it is from God…then it cant be lost…or destroyed…or hidden away forever. At just the right time and in the right place, they all will re-appear and prove their existence. Because OUR God would never ever let them be destroyed, melted down or stay buried forever. They are OF GOD, and a part of Him. And its GOOD versus EVIL again, you know? You have to believe. We have to think things that God made, we cannot put us-under. They were made by Him for us and will soon re-appear. Next week? Next month? In a year? Or on December 21st, 2012…the supposed "end of days"? Who knows? I sure don’t.
But what I do know is that those things of God cannot be destroyed, no matter how hard they try to. It would make no sense. If they are from our Creator, and inherently GOOD, then they will be back. Just as in faith we believe we will be reborn. I just think personally that these precious relics have been hidden away for the right time in Earths history when its "push-comes-to shove-put-up-or-shut-up".
It will be proof positive of GOD's existence. We all know you cant destroy that which God made! Only He can. And I will never believe that he already did destroy those sacred relics and that they are gone forever.
So, there is hope. Hope for each other, and hope for mankind. Hope for tomorrow and hope for Heaven. You just have to believe its true. It has to be. Good over Evil. Remember? Positive succeeds over negative. Up over down, and right side over left. Love is the key my friends, and I love you all. You just got to believe….I do…………….
Love, Light and Peace Always
