A Historical Watershed Moment

Leroy Vincent

Beschreibung

THE WORLD WAS TURNED INSIDE OUT BY JESUS.
A key historical turning point occurred two thousand years ago. The birth of Jesus absolutely shattered history! Even now, the secular world calculates time from His birth, though some in our culture would desire to see this change. But there is no denying that no other person in recorded history has ever received such a distinction!
Since Jesus walked the globe, there have been other historical turning points, but no one has ever had the same impact on the world as His life and ministry. His gang of "roughneck" rebels turned the world on its head!
THE KINGDOM'S SIGNIFICANCE
In Matthew 10, Jesus commissions His twelve disciples, sending them out in pairs to proclaim that "the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand." Our modern understanding of the phrase "at hand" is "near" or "close," yet a more realistic definition would be "a taste or a preview of what is to come."
He came the first time to announce the arrival of a Kingdom that was not of this world, as well as to prepare us for a future dimension of completeness.
In the same context, Jesus instructs His disciples to "...cure the sick, bring the dead to life, heal people who have leprosy, and force out demons," defining this sight of the "Kingdom" as a manifestation of supernatural power.
These would be the signs pointing the way to a greater Kingdom still to come, just like a billboard might offer you a glimpse of what's up ahead on the highway - a restaurant or filling station.

The Knights Templar

Phil G

The Holy Grail, the head of Christ, the elixir of life, vast treasure and powerful political conspiracies. All of these and more are part of the tale of that enigmatic warrior brotherhood we know as the Knights Templar. It is said they discovered a great secret buried deep beneath the Temple of Solomon and gathered together in-order to protect it from generation to generation. Over time they were feared by all their enemies, not least of which was eventually the Catholic Church itself. A powerful and mighty brotherhood with real hidden secrets that spanned across the known world and even beyond into the new world of the Americas. And all of this from the humble origins of a handful of supposedly poor warrior monks. 
 
The truth is that the Templars had found great treasure. It gave them immense wealth, property and power. Their strength was so great that monarchs of Europe feared them and some plotted their demise. 
 
But their treasure was more than material wealth; it was also philosophically, mystically and spiritually profound. So profound that it was in fact the ultimate secret that has been hidden and protected by secret societies ever since. Prepare to discover the truth.
