William and Kate tie the knot

The British weather did what all were praying it would do - not rain.

I stayed up all night to see it all unfold.

Nice couple that I believe will give the Throne of Britain a good boost to bring it back to popularity and some stability after some decades of woes for the Royal family, where marriages just did not stay the course for most of them, some were marriages that should never have been in the first place.

The service in Westminster Abbey was the basic Church of England service. Most of it very Biblical, with the law and commandments of God mentioned, and of course how marriage was created by the Eternal, presented in no uncertain manner, which people like Elton John and his like, must feel a little nervous to hear. But then the world has, including much so-called "Christian" religion accepted today as they would like to think God blesses also, same sex marriage, which He does not.

If you watched it all you saw the pomp of the Church of England as it is in so many ways akin to Roman Catholicism, just not recognizing the Pope. I grew up in a Church of England school - grade 1 to grade 12, and on special "religious days" the school was off to the Church of England. My neighborhood church was not at all like the Anglican church, and when I had to attend on those "special days" I remember how I could never figure all the fancy trappings and clothes and "ceremony" up and down and in front of some fancy altar. I just could not see Jesus in such a setting - never made sense to me.

So you had for a little while this "Christian religious" pageant as done by the Church of England, yet the stats are that only about 3 per cent of British people attend church on a regular basis.

Yes, looking at this service by the Church of England (Anglican) you got a view and sound of an outward appearance of a church most would think is "Godly" - a religion that showed the world marriage is holy and created by God,  the law and commandments of God mentioned, and of course a number of times the name of Jesus Christ. All very "Christian" sounding. But behind it all is what Jesus said would be before He returned, that MANY would come in His name , saying Jesus was the Christ, and shall DECEIVE MANY!! The Jewish religious leaders of Christ's day had a form of "religion" an outward show of representing God in truth....they sure felt they had the truth and Jesus was the false prophet. But it was really the other way around and finally Jesus denounced them in no uncertain manner in Matthew 23. So it is today, MOST of "Christian religion" SOUNDS and LOOKS very "religious" and "holy" and "sanctimonious." But the truth of the matter is very different when you get to the nuts and bolts and nitty-gritty of testing "Christian religion" against the truth of the Word of God.
My website is devoted to getting to the nitty-gritty of the truth of God's word, and laying bare the falsehoods of popular Christianity.

When reality hits again after all this, the Brits will be back to their secular, keep God out, don't even think about Him, attitude.

Certainly you also saw the Royal pomp of Britain is still very much alive. As I've said, it will stay and this couple of William and Kate could well give it new live and vitality. The British throne is the greatest throne on earth, indeed I guess so, for it is the very throne of David, that Jesus will inherit when He returns. That is why it will survive and remain so famous.
