Giving You Seraphim - Supernatural and Celestial Beings from Heaven

Seraphim

Judaism and Christianity have scriptures that believe in the existence of such celestial beings in ancient and medieval times. There are also devout followers in both religions today that may still harbour such belief.

The Seraphim are mythical beings that mean fiery creatures from old Hebrew Manuscripts. They were and are also believed in by Christians too. No doubt adopted from Old Testament. They are divine supernatural beings of Judaism and later Christianity that surround Almighty God as he sits upon his throne.

These celestial beings sing wondrous songs and have six wings. In old Hebrew, the word seraph means to burn. Therefore Seraphim comes from the power of these celestial beings, because they have an aurora that is so intense, before mere mortals, that humans can be burnt to a crisp within the presence of such divine angels.  

They are supposed to be abnormally tall to the degree of abnormal human giants, which are deformed from mortals because they have four faces that can turn to display various animals beside a human one, or sometimes four heads depending on how one interprets scriptures.

Of the Seraphim’s six wings, only one pair is used for flying, while another pair is for covering their own eyes in the presence of God and another pair to cover the lower part of their body – probably their modesty. They spend most of their time in the direct presence of God as a heavenly entourage; though sometimes they can return to Earth upon Godly missions.

There are stories of rogue Seraphim. One in particular, has fallen out of favour with God. He is Lucifer – an arch angel or Seraphim that fell from heaven and grace in the shape of a bright star. He is also referred to as the Devil that was cast into Hell by other Seraphim doing God’s work. They are named as Gabriel and Michael. There is also a Seraphim scribe of importance called Metatron.

Royal Mistress Lillie Langtree (Lilly Langtry) v Prince of Wales (AKA King Edward VII)

Lillie Langtree

Emilie Charlotte Le Breton was born on the channel island of Jersey in 1853. Her father was the Dean of Jersey and one of her distant relatives was a knight implicated in the murder of Thomas Becket in 1170 in Canterbury Cathedral.  

She always hoped of leaving the island of Jersey and wanted to live in London. She married a gentleman Irish Landowner called Edward Langtry and became known as Lillie Langtry. He was a yachtsman and with Edward Langtry she moved to mainland Britain and eventually managed to persuade her husband to move to London.

In the city she met Lady Sebright and became famous among the high society people and artists - many of whom wanted to paint her. She had a charming manner and a quick wit. Lillie made friends with many young Bohemians, including Oscar Wilde. 

She adapted herself into this high and sometimes indulgent society. She became fashionable at rich people's gatherings and became noticed by politicians and royalty. Among them King Leopold of Belgium. Soon other high ranking noblemen sort her company and in 1881 she became an actress.

Edward VII

In time she also became mistress to the Prince of Wales later to be Edward VII. It is said that on one occasion, the Prince of Wales and Lillie were arguing over money. The Prince had reason to retort that he had spent enough money on her to build an entire Battleship - an expensive undertaking as one might well imagine. Lillie was quick witted and tartly retorted that His Royal Highness had put enough seamen inside her to fill one. Ooooops!

She went on to have affairs with other notable high society and privileged gentleman and was known for her lifestyle during the Victorian and Edwardian eras. She died in Monaco in 1929 aged 75 from pneumonia and finally returned to be buried in Jersey - the place of her birth. She made the most of her life and lived it on the edge, to a degree. She travelled the world and went through many emotional trials and tribulations - breaking a few hearts and eggs along the way.    

Nigel Farage of UKIP

I think this man might hold a trump card for a future government. His UKIP party will not win the General Election, but I think they will win seats and be able to form a hung parliament with a winning party that does not have enough votes to win majority power. There is the danger that Labour might win by a small margin and form an alliance with the LibDems. However, any party that needs to do a deal with UKIP to form a government (and this is a strong possibility) will need to give the UK electorate a vote on the EU. I hope this will bring about a British withdrawal from EU. I never used to believe in this, but I do now. 

Greek National TV Network Shut Down due to Austerity

The Greek government has shut down the public broadcaster ERT, calling it a "haven of waste". Viewers watching the news on the main TV will get nothing but a blank screen and all news employees have been laid off. Much of this is blamed on EU austerity measures, but it is also down to the Greek nation's past government getting the country into the situation in the first place. Of course this does not help the rank and file electorate of Greece. This is the price they must pay to become stable within the Eurozone. There seems to be much more austerity ahead for Greece.

Prince Charles in Dundee with Dennis the Menace

Prince Charles fell for a prank by Dennis the Menace as he offered to shake hands with the life-size cartoon character during a visit to publishing company DC Thomson & Co. in Dundee - the home of Britain's most loved comics including the Beano.

China Goes for the Stars.

Shenzhou 10 launches in Gobi Desert.

China is reaching for the stars as the nation sends Shenzhou 10 to space with three astronauts. Their destination is an experimental space laboratory. The mission will last 15 days and is in pursuit of developing a space station. 

The Chinese astronauts are: Mission Commander Nie Haisheng, female astronaut Wang Yaping, and Zhang Xiaoguang. The rocket was launched in the Gobi Desert and when it gets into orbit, it will dock with the China's trial space laboratory module Tiangong 1 (Heavenly Palace 1) The astronauts will test the module's systems and prepare for future trials.

Once upon a time, China's founder of the Communist Party of The Peoples Republic of China, Mao Zedong retorted disappointingly; that China could not launch a potato into space. They have come a long way since then and the world's emerging super power may one day lead the space age, who knows?

What if Benifit Tourists Could be seen to be Stopped?

They Talk the Talk but actions speak better than words. We've heard it all before but nothing is seen.

I'm always dithering between the UK and its membership with the EU. Some things get me so crossed, that I want to throw in the towel with the EU and see the UK leave it. I would sooner face the so called economic strife rather then walk down streets were so many people are speaking foreign languages. I'm not racist and I don't dislike or wish people harm because they come from somewhere else. I also do not blame them for wanting to come here. But there are too many immigrants in the UK and my culture, racist or not, is being consumed. I don't embrace this apologetic idea of multiculturalism and I'm sick to death of being told I should celebrate such a thing. I don't want to. I want to be British and be among my own people. I don't hate others, I just resent my own left wing nationals constantly calling me a racist for loving my country and being upset by the real problem of irresponsible and uncontrolled mass immigration of unskilled labour. 

If economists of huge companies want the EU then let them go. Let's support the anti-EU economists that think we can survive on our own. Our old political classes have sold us down the river and things are going to get worse unless we boldly tackle immigration. Some politicians are talking the talk. Even the Germans and Dutch are saying such things. Maybe it could be sorted within the confines of the EU? If this could be done and seen to be, concerning immigration - the UK may wish to stay in the EU. The immigration issue will be the main thing on the minds of the majority of the UK electorate. Not the economics, even if this trading and global economy is the most important issue, you cant cram people of so many diverse cultures together and instruct them to like it.

below is a newspaper clipping of Theresa May Talking the Talk. Its good talk, but is it just talk?

Migrants that move across the European Union to claim benefits with no intention of working are to be targeted by ministers, the Home Secretary has said.

Speaking following discussions at the Justice and Home Affairs Council in Luxembourg, Theresa May said free movement abuse was a problem for a number of EU member states.

She said a commitment to tackle the problem had been secured following discussions with EU partners.

Mrs May said: "We must clamp down on free movement abuse, which takes its toll on our public services and local communities.

"The UK ensured this issue was high on today's agenda, and I am grateful to our EU partners for their increased support following our constructive discussion.

"Ministers have today acknowledged that free movement abuse is a problem for a number of Member States and we have secured a commitment to find EU-wide solutions to this problem.

"Stopping the abuse of free movement will help us to maintain an immigration system that works in the UK's national interest.

"But this is not a problem for the UK alone. That is why we are continuing to develop a consistent and collaborative approach across the EU."

The Cabinet minister reportedly has the backing of Germany to tackle so-called "benefit tourists".
