Luke 22: 17-20
And he took the goblet, thanked everyone, and said:
"Take this and share it among yourselves".
"I say this to you: Henceforth, I do not drink the bounty of
the vineyard, before into Gods Kingdom I go.
And he took the bread, thanked everyone, broke the bread, and
gave it to his disciples
and said, "This is my body, that will be given in behalf of you.
Please, do it for my memory."
In the same way he blessed the wine from WOODEN GOBLET. After
the meal he said, "This goblet is a symbol of my blood,
what will be sacrificed on your behalf."
After Jesus death, disciples retained the Holy Grail, for his
memory. Later it becamed the holy symbol of a Christian church.
Now, after 1000 years, the legendary Holy Grail is kept
in the St. Michael's Cathedral. Felix has located the Holy Grail
and he has a customer who would pay so dearly for it that you
could retire as a very wealthy man!
