The sacred oil that will be used to anoint King Charles III at his coronation May 6, has been consecrated at a Christian holy site in Jerusalem, Buckingham Palace has announced. The “chrism oil” was created using olives harvested from two groves on the Mount of Olives, a mountain ridge to the east of Jerusalem’s Old City, which holds religious importance to Christians.

Olives from the Monastery of Mary Magdalene and the Monastery of the Ascension were pressed just outside Bethlehem, where Christians believe Jesus was born, according to a statement.

I would never have thought this but I sincerely hope not.

 

[Matthew6:33]

It's all for show. The oil holds no power to save or to give special priviledge before God.

I know it doesn’t I just think it’s a really strange ritual.

It’s been done to every new monarch and has been going on since time out of mind.

Charles is a huge Globalist.
Im sure he will play his part for the coming man of sin .
Help set up and facilitate "shop" in various capacities.
Alot of movers and shakers involved.
" They" are getting excited and antsy.

Why weird I like it, shows there's a glimmer of hope for him.

The olive oil may come from the Holy Land, but with the Archbishop of Cantebury, sponsor of drag queen shows administering it, I'm certain there's nothing Holy about that oil.

…..and a cup of tea.

I wonder how many kings and queens of England had already been divorced before their coronation. Any historians here?

Don't know except Henry 8th.

Was there a royal who was about to become King but didn't because he married a divorced woman i the early 1900's ?

 

[Spartan Sprinter 1]

Edward VIII, after reigning for one year, abdicated the throne in 1936 to marry divorcee Wallis Simpson.

Yeah that was the one i was thinking of, thanks for that

He was already king before his divorce. The king is supposed to be the head of the church. I wouldn't think the church would want 2 divorcees in charge. But the way church morals are going downhill these days, I guess it won't be an issue.

I'm sorry, but I need to let people know this is not how we start threads on RF. We never start a thread with a sentence and a link to another site. Nor do we start a thread with a simple link somewhere else off site.

Please always provide at least 2-3 paragraphs of an article so that people can read some of it and see if they want to go offsite to read the rest of the article.

Thanks for understanding.

ETA: I've fixed it for you.

With all the jokes you post on the forums maybe Charlie has a "court jester" position for you?

He also didn't have the stomach or constitution to deal with the war they knew was coming with Hitler.
The marriage thing was a convenient excuse.
