Snorri was inspired by more ancient words:

HWAET!

A dream came to me
at deep midnight
when humankind kept their beds
– the dream of dreams!
I shall declare it.

It seemed I saw the Tree itself
borne on the air, light wound about it,
– a beam of brightest wood, a beacon clad
in overlapping gold, glancing gems
fair at its foot, and five stones
set in a crux flashed from the crosstree.

Around angels of God
all gazed upon it,
since first fashioning fair.
It was not a felon's gallows,
for holy ghosts beheld it there,
and men on mould, and the whole Making shone for it
- Signum Victoria!

Stained and marred,
stricken with shame, I saw the glory-tree
shine out gaily, sheathed in yellow
decorous gold; and gemstones made
for their Maker's Tree a right mail-coat.

Yet through the masking gold I might perceive
what terrible sufferings were once sustained thereon:
it bled from the right side.
Ruth in the heart.

Afraid I saw that unstill brightness
change raiment and colour
– again clad in gold
or again slicked with sweat,
spangled with spilling blood.

On this day, Easter Sunday in 1457, Prince Vladimir Tepes III of Wallachia, known as both Vlad Dracula and Vlad the Impaler earned his name and his vengeance.

The Wallachian Boyars sold out his father, Vlad Dracul, to the Ottoman Sultan resulting in Vlad being kept as hostage until installed in his father's place with the intent of being a vassal lord and puppet ruler.

These were invited to a lavish dinner party held by Prince Vlad. All of them, over 500 men, were enslaved and forced to rebuild the fortress overlooking the Arges River. Any who survived, were impaled alive around his kingdom, as a prelude to his campaign against the Ottomans.

HAPPY EASTER! I'm making shish kabob! Learn you some history goodness!

Probably the best drama about the real Vlad Tepes, made in Hungary in 1979. Subtitles in the closed caption option
https://youtu.be/VqbagKqtbAQ

....And a goofy awesome English language action movie about Vlad Tepes, circa 2000. Not as accurate, but fun.

Whoops! I meant Romania
>>
>>894367
Technically there was no Romania yet. Transylvania was (technically) under Hungarian rule.

Then the Ottos invaded and BTFO Hungary, splitting it into three entities
>Habsburg owned bits of Hungary
>Principality of Transylvania
>Magyar Beylik.
>>
Just making sure I'm following this, since it's the first time I've really heard the history of Vlad the Impaler: his father is sold out to the Ottomans (why?), Vlad Jr is forced to govern under their hand, but instead, he kills them all?

>Tfw historical events and happenings were actually really dumb looking

The fact that ancient Greece and Rome were brightly colors and probably looked closer to a bad amusement park than an elegant empire

Or that ancient armor and warriors were really stupid looking. Like the Persian Immortals were most likely just dudes with long robes and oversized shields.

I have to agree with this. Nazi architecture looked way better keeping everything white.

Christians, do you adhere to the Calvinistic or Arminian system of theology?

And is the "once saved, always saved" doctrine true?

Some say that you can lose your salvation, while others say that you can't.

Arminian.

Jesus died for all mankind, not just the "elect".
Predestination just seems wrong.

OSAS is true.

A saved person gets the Holy Spirit within him and he becomes a child of God and secure. If you can lose your salvation it means you can lose the spirit which doesn't make any sense. It also makes Christ's death useless.

By not believing in OSAS you stop relying on Christ and start relying on your own works. And you can't get to heaven with your own works.

You are saved by faith alone but this doesn't mean you have a license to sin. Works are a product of genuine faith.

If you don't become a completely new person or "born again" as Evangelicals put it, you might not be saved in the first place.

It's because you don't understand it.
