"The Spear of Destiny - The Hidden Power Behind the Spear that smote Christ's Side" - which absolutely does not a fiction or legend. What mystery would keep the spear, that a Roman centurion stabbed in the chest of Jesus during moments of his crucifixion?
Mercilessly, the Roman centurion whose name was Gaius Cassius Longinus, captain of the temple guard, stabbed his spear in the chest of Jesus. The blood and water that poured from the wound splashed in your eyes, which were virtually blind due to cataracts that you covered almost completely the view. Like a miracle, Longinus wiped her eyes and immediately fully recovered the faculty of sight! It is known that, later, the centurion, deeply regretting his insane and cruel act, converted to Christianity.
This is the page in the Bible about the episode of the Spear of Longinus:
Matthew 27:24-54
24 When Pilate saw that he could not prevail, but rather that a tumult was beginning, he took water and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, “I am innocent of the blood of this just person. See ye to it.”
25 Then answered all the people and said, “His blood be on us, and on our children!”
26 Then released he Barabbas unto them; and when he had scourged Jesus, he delivered Him to be crucified.
27 Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the common hall, and gathered unto Him the whole detachment of soldiers.
28 And they stripped Him and put on Him a scarlet robe.
29 And when they had plaited a crown of thorns, they put it upon His head and a reed in His right hand, and they bowed their knees before Him and mocked Him, saying, “Hail, King of the Jews!”
30 And they spat upon Him, and took the reed and smote Him on the head.
31 And after they had mocked Him, they took the robe off from Him and put His own raiment on Him, and led Him away to crucify Him.
32 And as they came out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name; him they compelled to bear His cross.
33 And when they had come unto a place called Golgotha, that is to say, a Place of a Skull,
34 they gave Him vinegar to drink mingled with gall. And when He had tasted thereof, He would not drink.
35 And they crucified Him and parted His garments, casting lots, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet: “They parted My garments among them, and upon My vesture did they cast lots.”
36 And sitting down, they watched Him there,
37 and set up over His head His accusation, written: This Is Jesus The King Of The Jews.
38 Then were there two thieves crucified with Him, one on the right hand and another on the left.
39 And those who passed by reviled Him, wagging their heads
40 and saying, “Thou that destroyest the temple and buildest it in three days, save thyself! If thou be the Son of God, come down from the cross!”
41 Likewise also the chief priests mocking Him, with the scribes and elders said,
42 “He saved others; himself he cannot save. If he be the King of Israel, let him now come down from the cross, and we will believe him.
43 He trusted in God; let Him deliver him now, if He will have him. For he said, ‘I am the Son of God.’”
44 The thieves also, who were crucified with Him, cast the same in His teeth.
45 Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land until the ninth hour.
46 And about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, “Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?” that is to say, “My God, My God, why hast Thou forsaken Me?”
47 Some of those who stood there, when they heard that, said, “This man calleth for Elijah.”
48 And straightway one of them ran and took a sponge, and filled it with vinegar, and put it on a reed and gave Him to drink.
49 The rest said, “Let be; let us see whether Elijah will come to save him.”
50 Jesus, when He had cried out again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost.
51 And behold, the veil of the temple was rent in two from the top to the bottom, and the earth quaked and the rocks rent.
52 And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints who slept arose,
53 and came out of the graves after His resurrection, and went into the Holy City and appeared unto many.
54 Now when the centurion, and those who were with him watching Jesus, saw the earthquake and those things that were done, they feared greatly, saying, “Truly, this was the Son of God!”
The Romans, stakeholders and governments of almost all the ancient world, were the first take hold the spear which pierced Jesus, because to consider endowed with magical powers, saving it as a valuable trophy.
The spear which pierced the chest of Jesus, known by the names of "Spear of Destiny", "The Holy Lance", or "The Spear of Longinus" became over time along as the Holy Grail the Crown of Thorns and the Sudarium of Turin, one of the greatest mystical symbols of Christianity. Said the old traditions that he who possessed would become the master of the world, invincible and endowed with the most unlimited power. But everything has its price.
Details of the tip and body of the spear. More suitably a gladius, was a fearsome Roman military artifact, extremely cruel and lethal, designed to cause severe injury and severe bleeding in their victims.
Herod, nicknamed "The Great", King of Judea between 37 BC and 4 AD, is considered one of its first owners. In 570 AD, the historical records say she was exposed in the Basilica of Mont Zion - Jerusalem, along with the crown of thorns. By the same token, the sacred character considered of Spear, the Crusaders were tasked to recover this valuable treasure, taking you from the Holy Land directly to the areas of the Catholic Church in Rome.
Through the ages, the Spear of Longinus aroused the greed and ambition of several historical figures (here do not necessarily arranged in chronological order). Emperors Constantine (statue below) and Justinian (mosaic, below) were some of them.
Pope Innocent VIII (above in red) was another holder of the Holy Lance. Do not know the exact reason, or the reasons unclear, the spear had left the fields and also the Vatican, been subsequently fall into the hands of various rulers, warriors and rulers lay. They say the Spear of Destiny, by having touched the body and the sacred blood of Christ, had the power to heal. But unfortunately only came to fall into the wrong hands and ambitious thus possibly perverted its largest and most sublime feature.
All those who possessed, in fact obtained the glory and the power, but extremely volatile, been mysteriously die, a little after you get it. Some of them died immediately after it has been dropped to the ground. It is also known that the spear mysteriously disappeared from the National Library in Paris, during the French Revolution.
Napoleon Bonaparte was one of those who have done everything to take over the Holy Lance. It is not known if it was thanks to the mystical power which it dismissed the Corso almost ruled the world with their powerful armies, come, however, suddenly undergoing a major downfall - dying in exile, despised, weakened and above all, totally mad.
The Kaiser Wilhelm, also another ruler who seized the spear. Had the same tragic fate of others. And so, for about a thousand years, at least 45 emperors held the possession.
From hand to hand, the Spear of Longinus finally came to the property of the Hapsburgs, Austria, having gone through several of their sovereign, which gave up its possession and custody...
.... Until finally have been carefully, stored in Hofsburg Treasure Museum in Vienna.
However, more recently, the magic and occult tradition Destination Spear became known to anyone else:
Richard Wagner was one of the nationalist composers favorites Hitler. Its ardent music promoted the ideals of a new society and strongly suggested the foundation of the National Socialist Party. And it was exactly in his opera called "Perceval" that the theme of Lance of Longinus was focused, thus arousing the attention of the young Adolf Hitler. It is known that Hitler made numerous visits to Hofsburg Museum, stopping fascinated by long periods of time before that sacred artifact. According to what we wrote:
"I knew with immediacy that this was an important moment in my life...I stood there quietly gazing upon it for several minutes, quite oblivious to the scene around me. It seemed to carry some hidden inner meaning which evaded me, a meaning which I felt I inwardly knew, yet could not bring to consciousness...I felt as though I myself had held it in my hands before in some earlier century of history - that I myself had once claimed it as my talisman of power and held the destiny of the world in my hands. What sort of madness was this that was invading my mind and creating such turmoil in my breast ?" - Adolf HitlerAnd it was not long for Hitler ascended to the supreme power of Germany, becoming a leader - a powerful dictator and Plenipotentiary.
Heinrich Himmler, a member of the Gestapo and so to speak, one of the "spiritual masters of Hitler" was a deep student of the Occult Sciences. In turn, Hitler, had a great interest in artifacts and religious relics and soon was quick to covet the possession of the Spear of Longinus. And for its strong influence, the first step of Hitler to invade with their armies Austria in April 1938, was exactly determine the seizure and immediate confiscation of the Spear of Destiny.
Dr. Walter Stein, recalling the September 1912, times when Hitler constantly visited Treasure House in Vienna, said: "At that time when we were first of back and forth in front of the Spear of Destiny, it seemed that Hitler was in such a deep trance that was in some kind of catharsis and a total eclipse of your subconscious. "And just referring to these events, Hitler himself revealed during an interview with Press:
"I wandered like a sleepwalker where Providence led me."
The fact is, getting the power of the Spear of Destiny - and like all others who aspired through such unlimited power and world conquest - Hitler became one of the greatest warriors of history and their armies became as more powerful than the old Roman Empire, and even almost win the temporal power of the globe. A fantastic technology sudden and inexplicably they have been granted and so Nazi Germany continued relentless in their unlimited dreams of conquest and glory.
And so, once again, the eagle, the brand of the conquerors, both in the old days of the Roman Empire as today, traveled the world invading countries and expanding its frightening shadow. Behind it all, however, there was a hermetic sect facing their magical rituals of initiation, supported by certain objects and symbolism originating in the earliest times and lost civilizations of the planet Earth. The Spear of Longinus was also a high Nazi cult object!
However, just as happened to all other holders conquerors of the Spear, after inexplicable several reverses, suddenly the power of Hitler it was ruthlessly removed. On April 30, 1945, Allied troops invaded, devastated and took Nuremberg and Berlin, the once all powerful capital of Nazi Germany. General George S. Paton (picture right) US commander, was also fascinated by the Spear of Destiny and immediately provided the confiscation, directly into a kind of underground shrine, in Nuremberg, highly protected and where Hitler zealously kept it. Since then, the United States became their temporary guardians.
On the same day, the Spear of Longinus's curse, seems to have been fulfilled. Hitler and his wife Eva Braun, committed suicide. The bodies of both officially would have been incinerated by the Allies. However, there are controversies, since the corpse does not resemble Hitler. There, on the other hand, suspected that this was a hoax, a well assembled propaganda stunt - forged by the allied forces and their respective governments in order to give satisfaction to the world public opinion.
The Spear of Longinus finally arrived in US, making them suddenly in the most powerful nation of the world. In a few months developed and used the sinister atomic bomb and, in fact, become a kind of "rulers" of the planet. The saga was repeated. However, a final decision (and perhaps very wise) of General Dwight D. Eisenhower, taken in 1946, made all the jewels of the Royal House of Hapsburg, including therein the Spear of Longinus, return to their place of origin - the House of Treasury Hofsburg in Vienna...
..... Where today remains, carefully preserved the ambition of madmen and megalomaniacs - even after the passage of almost 2 millenniums, keeping them a very deep mystery. The spear of blasphemous desecrated the body of Jesus, on the other hand and only once, granted the gift of a miracle to him who wielded with hatred.
However, it also saves them a supreme lesson, a large stern warning: Nothing and no one belongs to us!
You can not ever aspire to what we all have the right - the universal dwelling place, the Earth that only belongs to God, and which He alone can truly have and governing. All the power and glory of the world will never be given to men. These things are, in turn, extremely fleeting, transient.
Therefore, the blind will never again be cured. Every sword is hopelessly ineffective in the hands of the weak. So give back to Caesar what is Caesar's! And, therefore, the Supreme Law, preached by the Master himself, invariably and always will be fulfilled: every hand that wield to hurt one day - and inevitably - will become injured!
All the power of a simple spear that influenced so many leaders, many kings, the spear that pierced the right side of Jesus Christ the King of Kings.
It is further proof of the supreme power of the Messiah, the most powerful of all.
Let it rain, let it rain. Open the floodgates of Heaven.
