Catholics in Belgium in Procession

with “The Holy Blood”

(http://ivarfjeld.wordpress.com/2010/11/13/catholics-in-belgium-in-procession-with-the-holy-blood/)

The Basilica of the Holy Blood in Bruges in Belgium claims to have a

container with the original Holy blood of Jesus.

Catholics in Belgium carries the claimed original blood of Jesus on their

shoulders.

The Roman Catholic Church is not only the biggest collector of skulls and
bones. The Vatican also claim to hold collected body parts from men like John
the Baptist, and the Apostles.

But one of the most interesting claims is that the Catholics were able to
collect and keep a container, that holds the original blood of Jesus the
Messiah.
 The container that the Vatican holds the blood sheed on Calvary Hill 2000 years
ago.

This blood sample is kept in a container in a Catholic Church in Bruges in

Belgium. This container is kept for adoration and veneration, and Catholics
offer mass in front of it.

Once a year, the Catholic faithful arrange a large religious procession. This
tradition dates back to the Middle Ages, and take place each Ascension day.

The centerpiece is the Blood of Christ, a coagulated relic said to become fluid
again each year on this day. Sixty to one hundred thousand spectators watch
the procession, a parade of historical scenes and biblical stories.

The “Holy blood” of Belgium is not the only blood of Jesus kept in the Roman
Catholic Church. The Pontiff is also claiming that someone managed to
contain the blood in the staircase of Pontus Pilate. Not only did the Vatican
manage to transport the blood found in the staircase to the capital of Italy.
The whole staircase did miraculously end up in Rome.
Lets take a look at more picture from the Basilica of the Holy Blood in Bruges.

There is a lot that can be said about the claims of “Holy Blood”. Crazy religious
people have been traveling around the World, in a bid to find the“Holy grail”.
Like the item it self would be Holy, and not the man who held it: The Messiah.

In the days of Jesus, there was no fridges. And there was no doctors to take
DNA-tests, that could confirm who’s blood the Catholic’s have kept inside this
container.And anyone claiming to have found the blood of Jesus, would find it
more than difficult to get a valid confirmation from possible ancestors.

To even suggest that anyone standing next to the cross, was interested in, or
simply capable of containing his blood is at best questionable. But frankly: It is
nothing but ridiculous. His blood was shed once and for all. Not to encourage
the Pope to make a circus in Belgium, but as an atonement for sins pleasing
to Father God in Heaven. Jesus shed His blood there and than. On Calvary Hill
in Jerusalem. All other claims to His “holy blood” is religious fraud.
