The Lost Ark Covenant

[Isanguard]

According to the Bible. this sacred relic was the megnificent wooden chest(overlain outside and inside with pure gold) that contained the tablets of stone upon which God had inscribed the Ten Commandments.

The question is where is the lost Ark now ?

Here some links about the Lost Ark Ark 1 Ark 2

[BobaFett]

Are we talking about the bible like ark, that JUST holds the 10 commandments, or the indianana jones ark?

[Kryso]

It had more than just the stone tablets with the Ten Commandments on. It also had Aaron’s staff - that sprouted almonds leaves - and a small container with Manna in it! I learnt that while do research for my latest book, I’m not a bible-basher (no offence to anyone).

But its interesting because in the book of Jude (one before Revelations), Satan is arguing with the Archangel Michael about the location of Mosses body, because Satan wanted to make a new religion out of its location here on Earth. So maybe the Ark was also hidden?

[shirini]

hmmmm, what's Manna?

[Kryso]

When the Israelites where travelling in the wilderness for over 40 years, most of the time they only had Manna to eat. A kind of white powder that fell from the sky - a gift from their God. It was made into a variety of things, a kind of bread, a soup… and so on!

May I add, Manna still continues to fall from the skies on Mount Sinai.

Really? I’ve never heard that it still falls! Can it still be gathered and eaten?

Yes Kryso, it is still gathered and eaten on a daily basis. Here is a link with pictures and some more information CLICK HERE

That is quite a discovery.

[PsychicPenguin]

Manna appearing again! Yay!

Hehehe, it is a very nice joke

You just have to go up one level.

The website is about jokes and parody of Christianity.

Anyway, I found something that I think is real about manna.

Scroll to the very bottom and you can try to make your own manna

Yumm

Interesting stuff

With regards to the heavenly bread, I think the probable explanation lies in the secretion from those scaly insects.

[shirini]

hey thank guys for explaing Manna!

i remember a discovery show that said the Ark was in Africa, well it acutally show a guy gurading a tample like building, apparently it's in there. but the guy gaurding said he had never acutally seen it.

show also linked the ark to a nights' templer church in scotland. It's supposed to have been store there for sometime! the conclution of the show was , that they (sclors) belived that the ark was a engery source, that can be a very powerfull weapon and that is why it has been hidden.

[azazel]

Shirini, interesting that you mention Knights Templar. They actually horded and looted a lot of holy relics during the crusades, under the pretense that they were guarding them. I reckon their "Christianity" was a guise for self gain.....Am I cynical or what?

Here is what is known about the Ark based on historical accounts:

"Archaeological discoveries of the last century (which include the Baghdad Battery among others), indicate that a working knowledge of energy devices might have been present in ancient Middle Eastern cultures, and therefore it might not have been beyond Moses' specialized training in the house of Pharoah (Exodus 2:10).

The Bible describes the Ark as made of acacia or shittah-tree wood, a cubit and a half broad and high and two cubits long, and covered all over with the purest gold. Its upper surface or lid, the mercy-seat, was surrounded with a rim of gold; and on each of the two sides were two gold rings, in which were placed two gold-covered poles by which the ark could be carried (Num. 7:9; 10:21; 4:5,19, 20; 1 Kings 8:3, 6).

It is known that the acacia wood acts as an insulator, while the gold (the purest available at that time) is known as a good conductor. An electric charge could have accumulated from constant exposure to static electricity in the Middle East climate (among other possible sources). The Ark's upper surface has a rim of gold (a single coil of angels figures). Over the ark, the cherubs could form a spark gap, producing a dynamic radiance that would inspire awe in the observer, and act as a lightning source to kill anyone that touched it.—Num. 7:9; 10:21; 4:5,19, 20; 1 Kings 8:3, 6 Lev. 16:2; Num. 7:89; 2 Sam. 6:6, 7."

What is interesting to note is that "around 1999, author Richard Andrews built a model of the ark. He claims that when tested, it demonstrated that it would act as an electromagnetic accumulator."

There are many theories regarding the location of the ark but many point to Ireland...

I don't think so.

[moe eubleck]

I thought Inidana Jones already found that thing. Isnt it in some government warehouse somewhere?

[Magan]

Actually, if you read Laurence Gardner's "Lost Secrets of the Sacred Ark" it will give you astonishing info about the ark and where it really is...(hint- it ain't in Ethiopia) Also, manna in Egyptian literally means, "what is it"...is supposed to be powder gold.

Re: The Possibility of The Lost Ark of the Covenant

Below is a link that is interesting:

http://www.greaterthings.com/Word-Number/Ark/

If we really think about it, sacred things are always only shown to man if they have faith in him and when we are ready to recieve them , then after its purposes to be available to men is done, God will hide it from us.

Just like the Hollow Earth Discovery by Admiral Byrd and Olaf Jensen,

men are so wicked, they don't want to believe them and put them in

prison, the other reason why most sacred things are not revealed

right now, like the Ark of the Covenant is that, mens heart are not

ready to accept truth, its been blinded, faith is nowhere to be found

mostly and unbelief is rampant as well as wickedness.

Lack of faith and wickedness is like a dark cloud that hides

the bright sunshine.

OK I'm infinitely curious about this theory - the electricity theory? Is that really true? Is that really possible?

Are there links?

Tell me everything!!!!!

According to the Bible, the Ark of the Covenant holds all the evils of mankind, but it has never been found. Theories and rumors of its location are present everywhere, but no one has come close to finding it. And doesn't this story sound awfully familiar to Greek theologians? Pandora's Box comes to mind. Is the Ark of the Covenant real or is it just a figment of religion's ideal philosophy to again rip off yet another ancient culture story? Both stories are vastly similar, amongst other stories in the Bible. The Pandora Box legend says Pandora was curious and opened the box and let all but one of the evils escape into the world: Hope. If Hope is kept, then there is hope. The Bible story claims the Ark of the Covenant also holds the secrets of the world and God's true power, and if ever opened, the world will collaspe; it holds God's ULTIMATE TEN COMMANDS. And all but has been eternally broken: Thou shall have no other God than I. Because everyone believes in a god in some way or other or a higher power. And monothesim is an ideal that there is a God in the heavens that controls everything. Different gods are present in different parts of the world, but each hold true to the fact: people believe in a higher power: and that is God, no matter what form He takes. But did either object exist at one time or are they yet stories to make sense of how chaotic our world really is?

[sonofkrypton]

i have to completely disagree to make the assumption that everyone believes in god of one form or another is completely wrong i can look into the deepest parts of myself and firmly believe that god is no more real to me than a tooth fairy and that jesus would have made an excellent car salesman he had the gift of talking to people and persuading them i believe he was a very intelligent man who had a gift of knowing alot about the human body and he may have healed some people that to persons of his era would seem a miracle and as word spread a little like chinese whispers his stature grew and grew and they wrote a book about this man a LONG time after he was dead and it was meant as a code for people of THAT era to live by and the person who wrote the first bible would probably laugh if he could see most of the world still follow his words some 2000 years on

The Holy Observer? Wouldn't this site be a little bias? I take this the same as The National Inquirer. Any other links for this?

[Nxt2Hvn]

I believe that the Ark of the Covenant is in the Temple of God in heaven.

See Revelation 11:19:

And the temple of God was opened in heaven, and there was seen in his temple the ark of his testament: and there were lightnings, and voices, and thunderings, and an earthquake, and great hail.

And one long sentence shall lead them.

The fact that you replied to this thread and quoted my post and expressed your dissatisfaction with my response whether or not you believe in God proves that you believe in something; and who said anything about Jesus? The Jesus is said to be the Son of God, not God Himself.

most of the world still follow his words some 2000 years on

Jesus's words? Can you honestly say that the words in the Bible are word for word if at all Jesus said them? The stories of the Bible were written more than 100+ years after Jesus's was supposedly crusified on the cross.

The fact that I'm defending my post is a testament to my belief in a higher power whether it be God or other. I do belief in a god.
