The Introduction Of Christianity Into Britain Isles. This is confirmed by the early British Historian Gildas (AD516570) who states, Meanwhile, these islands received http://www.ensignmessage.com/archives/christianintro.html
Extractions: The famous ecclesiastical historian Eusebius, who lived three hundred years before Augustine came to Britain, and who is well known as the Father of Church History, says . This is confirmed by the early British Historian Gildas (A.D. 516-570) who states, show that Christianity was introduced into Britain before A.D. 37. That very early, the Gospel came by the hands of Hebrew is borne out by the finding of two medals bearing the effigies of our Lord without a halo; one of these was unearthed at Cork in 1812, under the foundation of one of the very first Christian monasteries ever built in Ireland, the other under the ruin of a Druidical Circle at Bryngwin, in Anglesey about the same time. Antiquarians inform us that the Hebrew letter on the obverse side to the right of the effigy of one of these gives the date as the first year after the other Hebrew letters signifying Jesus, on the left; the word Messias is on the collar and the reverse side has an inscription in Hebrew, rendered thus
The Origin Of Our Western Heritage - Chapter 1 The British historian Gildas (AD 516570) wrote that Christianity was introducedinto Britain in AD 38, during the last year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar http://www.bethelcog.org/IsrChap1.htm
Extractions: P.O. Box 25345, Eugene OR 97402 The Origin of Our Western Heritage Chapter One The ApostlesWhere Did They Go? It may seem rather unusual to begin a study of western heritage by introducing a question regarding the Apostles. The omission of the majority of the Apostles in the book of Acts, and where they are found later, provides an important key in the study of our heritage. Knowledgeable Bible students know that the patriarch Jacob had 12 sons. All the descendants of Jacob (whose name was changed to Israel) are known as Israelites. They were the progenitors of the 12 tribes of Israel. As far as Old Testament history is concerned, what is not generally understood is that after the time of King Solomon (1017978 BC the 12 tribes of Israel split into two nations. Three of the tribes remained loyal to Rehoboam, Solomons son, while the others formed their own kingdom north of Jerusalem and chose Jeroboam as their king. From that point of time the two nations were known as the kingdom of Judah and the kingdom of Israel. They were often at war with one another. After three successive invasions by the Assyrians, the kingdom of Israel was vanquished, and the people deported from their land. The fall of the northern kingdom took place around 721718 BC . At the same time, a large number of Jews were deported. These people never returned to Palestine and historically were lost from sight. Later, the kingdom of Judah was exiled to Babylon, but a number of Jews returned under Ezra and Nehemiah and formed their own nation once again. These are the people to whom Jesus preached. In the gospels they are repeatedly called Jews. What needs to be recognized is this: All Jews are Israelites, but not Israelites are Jews. In much the same way we would say all Californians are Americans, but not all Americans are Californians.

Tenure Of Kings - Notes Gildas. Gildas (516?570) was one of the very earliest historians ofBritain. His Liber Querelus de Excidio Britanniae was published http://www.dartmouth.edu/~milton/reading_room/tenure/notes.shtml
Extractions: Introduction The Tenure of Kings and Magistrates TKM The Life of John Milton , Barbara Lewalski describes its various generic elements: "Several elements are intertwined here, somewhat disjointedely: castigation of backsliding Presbyterians, rhetorical appeals to the fragmenting revolutionary parties, defenses of tyrannicide, and development of a republican political theory derived from classical and contemporary sources, and the Bible" (230). For all of its claims to be chiefly a work of theory, there's much to be gained from reading it as an occasional piece, prompted by one of England's most important political emergencies. By December 1648, King Charles I's royalist forces had been utterly defeated by the Parliamentary Army led by Generals Thomas Fairfax and Oliver Cromwell . Attempts to come to some compromise with the King had all failed and there was very good reason to suspect that the King and his agents were negotiating (when they agreed to negotiate at all) in bad faith. Still, many in Parliament, including some Presbyterians who had supported war against the king for nearly seven years, balked at the idea of trying King Charles I for treason, and deposing and executing him. Milton argues that these procedures, however radical they may appear, are nothing more than the logical and necessary extension of having waged a just war on a tyrant who remains unrepentant and a danger to the commonwealth. On the sixth of December, 1648

Chalice Well of his book quotes the following passage from one of these called The Actsof the Illustrious King Arthur attributed to Gildas, AD 516 570. http://www.mantra2000.com/soul/chalicewell.html
Extractions: The Chalice Well Glastonbury, Somerset, England Information regarding Chalice Well automatically falls under three main headings: Fact, Tradition, and Romance, of which the third is by far the most voluminous. So much has been written about Glastonbury and its abbey during the last eight hundred years that it comes as something of a shock to find how comparatively little of actual fact has been recounted of this Well, one of the most revered and ancient sites on the Isle of Avalon. Students of Romantic literature will be familiar with the name and with many legends concerning the coming of Joseph of Arimathea to Glastonbury, bringing with him the "Chalice" or Cup of the Last Supper. Chalice Well is fed by a spring which rises on the slope of Chalice Hill and gives an outflow of 25,000 gallons a day. The water is chalybeate, impregnated with iron, and beautifully clear. The Well itself is built of massive stones and forms two chambers, the inner one being reached through an opening at the foot of the western wall of the shaft. The whole structure is orientated roughly north and south. The Natural Spring has been capped to ensure its purity. From the Well-head the water is piped down under the terraced garden and comes out for the first time at the Lion's Head, the only place in the gardens where it is now safe to drink. We see the water again gushing forth not far from the Lion's Head as a delightful little terraced waterfall which in past centuries filled a pool where sufferers came to bathe in the healing waters. The water then goes through an underground piping system and the stream is seen again above ground in the double circle "Vesica Piscis" waterfall area near the main gate entrance. This was constructed around 1976 - 77 and is the newest addition to the gardens. This whole area is slowly being landscaped so as to blend with the enchantment and peace of the rest of the gardens.

Extractions: University of Calgary "A primary source is distinguished from a secondary by the fact that the former gives the words of the witness, or first recorder of an event. The historian, using a number of such primary sources, produces a secondary source". (Barzun, The Modern Historian, p. 94). A primary source is a work written at a time that is contemporary or nearly contemporary with the subject or period under study. Primary sources provide the raw data and information for the historian. A secondary source is a work that contains the explanation of, and judgements on, this primary material. A historical work is considered scholarly and reliable according to the extent to which it is based on "primary" sources, (i.e. the basic, raw, imperfect evidence). The book the historian writes is a "secondary" source. This bibliography lists English translations of primary sources, available in the University of Calgary Library. A small number of titles are in Latin, but they have informative notes and some explanation of the text. The arrangement is by author or title within each subject grouping.

Joseph Of Arimathea And David's Throne In Britain! Gildas Badonicus ( 516 570 AD), one of the earliest British historians, alsorefers to Joseph as NOBILIS DECURIO. What does this Latin title mean? http://www.hope-of-israel.org/i000111a.htm
Extractions: Heremon. By John D. Keyser Matthew records in chapter 27: "Now when evening had come, there came A RICH MAN from Arimathea, named JOSEPH, Who himself had also become A DISCIPLE OF JESUS. This man went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. Then Pilate commanded the body to be given to him. And when JOSEPH had taken the body, he wrapped it in a clean linen cloth, and laid it in his new tomb which he had hewn out of the rock; and he rolled a large stone against the door of the tomb, and departed." (Verses 57-60, NKJV). With these words Joseph of Arimathea disappears from the pages of the Bible.
