Many are called, but FEW are chosen. REAL Christians are a MINORITY. Can't vote their way out of a wet paper bag. But their good EXAMPLE may save many. But FAKE Christians are the scribes and fairy-sees of our day, having NO power with God. The MEEK shall inherit the earth when God eliminates his enemies of falsehoods. Forget nations and get ready for one great Kingdom of God. My book on the good news of the Tribulation: TRIBULATION IS HOPE; THE LAST CALL. https://lnkd.in/gZqUFs3E

The Hundred Years' War was a lengthy conflict between the kings of France and England. Beginning in 1337 and lasting until 1453, the war endured for 116 years, with periods of peace interspersed between bouts of fighting. Interestingly, the name "Hundred Years' War" was coined much later, in the 19th century, to describe this extended conflict. Historians traditionally divide the war into three main phases: 1. The Edwardian War (1337-1360) during the reign of Edward III of England. 2. The Caroline War (1369-1389) during the rule of Charles V of France. 3. The Lancastrian War (1415-1453) named after the Lancasters, the royal house of England. The war began principally because King Edward III (r. 1327-1377) and Philip VI (r. 1328-1350) escalated a dispute over feudal rights in Gascony to a battle for the French Crown. However, the causes of the Hundred Years' War were multifaceted and evolved as different monarchs ruled. Some key factors include: - The seizure of English-held Gascony (Aquitaine, in southwest France) by Philip VI of France. - Edward III of England's claim to the French throne through his mother. - Edward III's military expeditions to expand English territories, protect trade routes, and acquire land for his nobles. - Charles V of France's ambition to remove English influence from French territories. - The internal conflicts and power struggles within the French nobility, exacerbated by the madness of Charles VI of France. - Henry V of England's desire to legitimize his rule in England and assert himself as the king of France through conquest. - The determination of the Dauphin, future King Charles VII of France, to reclaim his rightful inheritance and unify France under his rule. #mylineage #armor #armour #europeanhistory #heraldry #militaryhistory #medievalwar #medievalhistory #medievaltimes #medievalworld #middleages #kinghenry #kingofengland #emperor #Barbarossa #crusades #charlemagne #westfrancia #kingedward #knights #HolyRomanEmpire #medievalarmor #warriorhistory #medieval #medievalchivalry #edwardtheblackprince #Kingdom #henryvi #medievalknight #coatofarms https://lnkd.in/g___DENT

Today we commemorate the 79th anniversary of the liberation of the Auschwitz-Birkenau extermination camp. On the 27th of January, 1945, Soviet forces advanced to the camp, liberating approximately 7,000 individuals who had survived the systematic extermination driven by the racial fanaticism of the National Socialists. The global community continues to reflect upon this harrowing occurrence. Presently, only a handful of individuals remain who can bear witness to these events from personal experience. Nonetheless, it is imperative for our society to persist in the solemn remembrance of the innocent victims and to engage with their memory in a manner befitting their dignity. In the current context, this dignity also encompasses the responsibility to prevent the politicization of these memories. The Holocaust represents an unparalleled rupture in the fabric of civilization, rendering any comparisons inappropriate. Upholding the dignity of the victims is an obligation incumbent upon successive generations. Through commemoration, we have the means to avert the repetition of history. The mantra 'Never again' is more pertinent now than ever. #MemoryAndDignity #HolocaustRemembrance #NeverAgainIsNow  #HolocaustGedenktag #NieWieder #ErinnernFürDieZukunft #AuschwitzBefreiung #GegenDasVergessen #27Januar #GeschichteErinnern #MahnungDerGeschichte #ZumGedenken #WeRemember
