The Holy Grail
-
whats tat?
sorry, i just saw it in Da Vinci Code

A creation from an overly imaginative mind.
Traditionally believed to be the cup that Jesus drank from during the last supper. Dan Brown has another thoery, watch the movie.
The Bible does not talk about this at all. -
Thats because that part which mentions it has been blanked out by the people who had control of the scriptures at that time.Originally posted by Chin Eng:A creation from an overly imaginative mind.

I like the Deep Purple song that goes something like sail away tomarrow
can't remember the next lyrics then it has a part that goes "It's like searching for the Holy Grail" The song is off of Burn.
My favorite Christian band is Blood Good. IF you like Creed you will probably like www.benparkdrive.com -

extracts from the above link:
In Christian mythology, the Holy Grail was the dish, plate, cup or vessel used by Jesus at the Last Supper, said to possess miraculous powers. According to many versions of the story, Joseph of Arimathea used the Grail to catch Christ's blood while interring him and then took the object to Britain, where he founded a line of guardians to keep it safe. The quest for the Holy Grail makes up an important segment of the Arthurian cycle, appearing first in works by Chrétien de Troyes (Loomis 1991). The legend may combine Christian lore with a Celtic myth of a cauldron endowed with special powers. -

I watch channelnewsasia, they were showing an documentary show on 'the da vinci code'. It says that Jesus maybe married to Mary (forgot which 'Mary') and have a daughter, called Sarah (which means 'princess'). After Jesus's death, Mary and Sarah went to Southern France.
There's a scene that shows Sarah (its actually a doll to represent her) carrying the holy grail cos she's the daughter of the King. She married a king or prince of France. To find out more, go to search engine like 'yahoo' to search for it. -

Use your spiritual discernment and intuition to sift fact from fiction. -
everything in the Bible is the word of God and is there for our benefitsOriginally posted by shade343:Not everything in the bible is the word of God. Use your spiritual discernment and intuition to sift fact from fiction.
sure have to use spiritual decernment, but based on what do we decern/test this spiritual decernment?
Our intuition? how can we based it on the intuition of a fallen being (us)
btw if not everything in the Bible is the word of God, then all of us (christian) will be in trouble.... how do we know which is and which is not (any person can than pick and choose whatever he/she like and discard the rest)

hrmm, interesting thoughts.
actually i did read the book. makes me wonder why some are so intrigue by the "codes".....hrmm...even if there are codes in da vinci's paintings - so what har ? da vinci isnt there when Jesus conducted His public ministry, he isnt there during the Last Supper.
i like da vinci's painting of the last supper due to its artistic imagination but it never come across to me that he is painting a perfect depiction of what went on that time. how could he if he is not there ? based on a few secret documents ? crap. -
i tot bible's written by men..

Precisely.... all folks here should watch the movie "Crazy History of the World Part 1 by Mel Brooks" One scene featured the last supper, with Jesus and the 12 disciples having their last meal in a restaurant's private room, a waiter was having difficulty trying to take their orders, in walked Da Vinci because Jesus wanted to record this occasion. Da Vinci proceeded to rearrangement the sitting arrangment to how the painting was done...... Those who have not seen this movie should go get it....Originally posted by klydeer:hrmm, interesting thoughts.

Point is: even if DaVinci is part of the Priory of Sion (which I have serious doubts over), there is no way to connect him to the actual last supper other than painting what he thought occured.
