The Basilica of the Holy Blood in Bruges in Belgium claims to have a container with the original Holy blood of Jesus.
The Roman Catholic Church is not only the biggest collector of skulls and bones. The Vatican also claim to hold collected body parts from men like John the Baptist, and the Apostles. 
But one of the most interesting claims is that the Catholics were able to collect and keep a container, that holds the original blood of Jesus the Messiah.
This blood sample is kept in a container in a Catholic Church in Bruges in Belgium. This container is kept for adoration and veneration, and Catholics offer mass in front of it.
Once a year, the Catholic faithful arrange a large religious procession. This tradition dates back to the Middle Ages, and take place each Ascension day. 
The centerpiece is the Blood of Christ, a coagulated relic said to become fluid again each year on this day. Sixty to one hundred thousand spectators watch the procession, a parade of historical scenes and biblical stories.
The “Holy blood” of Belgium is not the only blood of Jesus kept in the Roman Catholic Church. The Pontiff is also claiming that someone managed to contain the blood in the staircase of Pontus Pilate. Not only did the Vatican manage to transport the blood found in the staircase to the capital of Italy. The whole staircase did miraculously end up in Rome.
Lets take a look at more picture from the Basilica of the Holy Blood in Bruges.

There is a lot that can be said about the claims of “Holy Blood”. Crazy religious people have been traveling around the World, in a bid to find the “Holy grail”. Like the item it self would be Holy, and not the man who held it: The Messiah.
In the days of Jesus, there was no fridges. And there was no doctors to take DNA-tests, that could confirm who’s blood the Catholic’s have kept inside this container.
And anyone claiming to have found the blood of Jesus, would find it more than difficult to get a valid confirmation from possible ancestors.
To even suggest that anyone standing next to the cross, was interested in, or simply capable of containing his blood is at best questionable. But frankly: It is nothing but ridiculous. His blood was shed once and for all. Not to encourage the Pope to make a circus in Belgium, but as an atonement for sins pleasing to Father God in Heaven.
Jesus shed His blood there and than. On Calvary Hill in Jerusalem. All other claims to His “holy blood” is religious fraud.

Good article Ivar. It’s freaky they dress up in Medevil outfits while holding the “blood”. The whole thing is just wacky.
There is not enough space to comment on how far the RCC has separated itself from the truth, but let me hit on the most important point for all those Roman Catholic sheep being led to hell by their Pope.
1. The RCC in Can. 1442 claims the Roman Pontiff as the supreme judge for the entire Catholic world (somethng Pope Gregory the Great would call the very antiChrist).
2. The Code of Canon Law was on January 25, 1983 ‘infallably’ declared by John Paul II that the reformed (changed) Code to be a “perpetual record”.
3. Further, Article I, Can. 333;3 states “There is neither appeal nor recourse against a decision or decree of the Roman Pontiff.” Therefore there is no bucking the Pope even when he decides/dcrees against the very Word of God (see further below).
4. Here is the rift…in that Can. 899;1 states, “The celebation of the Eucharist (read Holy Sacrifice of the Mass) is the action of Christ Himself and the Church; in it Christ the Lord, by the ministry of a priet, offers Himself, substantially present under the forms of bread and wine, to God the Father and gives Himself as spirtual food tot he faithful who are associatd with His offereing.” Thus, Christ is offered to God at each and every Mass or thousands of times per day in every Roman Catholic Church in the world. (Further, without a priest then Christ can do nothing!)
All of this is in direct opposition and declaration of the Word of God, which clearly and authoritively states, “And every priest stands ministering daily and offering repeatedly the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins, but this Man (Christ Jesus) offered ONE SACRIFICE FOR SINS FOREVER, sat down at the right hand of God.” Hebrews 10:11-12.
For those that think Christ must be offered daily, read this: “For by one offerring He has perfected forever those who are being sactified.: Hebrews 10:14
Therefore, real true followers of Jesus Christ only need one sacrifice and offering to be washed free of sins and we don’t need some stupid Mass that by it’s very nature declares the ONE OFFERING of Christ to be insufficient and therefore must be repeated.
Thus, we are being given a new Gospel by the RCC Pope, that I will not follow, and with Paul declare, “if anyone preaches any other gospel to you than what you have rceived, let him be accursed.” Galatians 1:9.
It is for this reason that I had to write a letter to Pope John Paul II some many years ago demanding He strike myself and my family from any records of the Roman Catholic Church.
Even so, come, Lord Jesus!
AMEN!
Wow, Gordon. You wrote a letter?? I’m sure it’s in their files 😉 My family just left the RCC this year after attending a well known Catholic University that is very “orthodox”. It was a big move. The most liberating, yet painful thing ever.
It is aweful to discover the lies that have been taught to children to keep them under the Pope. I am convinced that the RCC, under the Pope, is teaching falsehood that is most deceptive to those that really don’t know the whole Word of God nor study the Holy Scriptures for themselves. As it is written, “And for this reason God wil send them strong delusion, that they should believe the lie, that they all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness.” II Thess. 2:11-12.
What was the truth these folks failed to believe? Their refusal to trust God and His Word which clearly states, “we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.” Hebrews 10:10.
Instead of accepting the “once and for all” sacrifice of the sinless Jesus Christ, our Priest according to the order of Melchizedek, the RCC are taught the lie to trust in their sinful priests, bishops, and Popes who have placed themseleves, instead of Christ, in front of the people to offer Mass for both the living and the dead amongst their blind and dumb followers (no less than a million times a day). This proves they do not accept the one sacrifice of Jesus Christ. They have rather substituted their many unbloody Masses for the one bloody cross of Christ. Do we need mentioned their sick forbidding their elders to marry? No wonder they go after children to satisfy their sexual pleasures and have brought disgrace on our Lord Jesus Christ among unbelievers who think they are true Christians.
May God have mercy on us for putting up with their garbage for so many years. AMEN.
Gordon Stamper you are very true. I agree. I am an Orthodox christian and am happy to be one. The best thing about our priests is that they ARE able to marry and have children…simply because IT IS WHAT GOD WANTED US TO DO..the fact that the RCC has denied such permissions is exactly why the priests have become pedophiles (as you have also said)
I personally go to church on Sundays but not solely for communion, I primarily go so that i can be in a place where i feel more close to God than i do at home where daily troubles chase me.
Many RC’s have become more Papist than actual followers of the Lord Jesus Christ.
also another thing..have you noticed how religion seems to be receeding?? its scary to hear such things..at least to me it is..
like without being prejudice Islam is increasing drastically in comparison to other religions..
and it offends me how much of a marketing comodity christianity has become these days..i see budhists wearing crosses on their wrists..i see aetheists wear them decoratively even goths wear it for some reason?…
i thought this topic would be somethng that might refresh this thread…honestly id like someones opinions on these things aswell..
thanks Gordon
Also just to ask after you left the RCC did you do anything else to your faith? are you now just an individual follower without needing a church? or you moved churches??
thanks again
This seems to me like a pagan ceremony and the “blood and tissue and bones” are some sick idol (relic) that is used instead of a golden calf. Sorry. I don’t mean to sound angry. I’m Jewish, so this very disturbing to me and as far from Judaism as the pagan. The pagans are more HONEST though. They don’t claim ONE g-d and then pray to bones and blood of PEOPLE. By definition, if one has blood, then one is HUMAN and could never be G-d. I am disturbed by this. My belief was that Christians (of all denominations) were the CLOSEST thing to Jews, but this really undermines my previous position. Can someone explain this? I’m really disgusted and would LOVE to be UNDISGUSTED.
txlady706 may I point out to you in your own TANAKH and guide you to Isaiah 9:6-7 and ask you to ponder the words written by the prophet.
1. A child is born.
2. He is a son given to Israel.
3. His name is called Everlasting Father.
4. This child who is a male is called Almighty G-d.
5. He is the Prince of Peace and of his government there will be no end.
Surely G-d can and has predicted He will put on flesh and blood and become a baby son given to Israel. Isaiah’s words can be interpreted in no other way. Who in all of the history of the Jews ever proclaimed himself to be G-d? Answer is Jesus Christ known to Israel, and his Jewish mother, as Yeshua HaMashiach. He called himself “I AM” or in Hebrew “YHWA”.
Isaiah speaks of Yeshua in all of Chapter 53 but asks the question, “Who has believed our report?”
There is only One G-d and His name is Yeshua HaMashiach! Now I pray your whole body, soul, and spirit (not three of you but just yourself made up of three) study what has been written and believe. G-d surely has put on flesh and blood and has become a man. Why else would he as a son child given to Israel be called both Everlasting Father and Almighty God? AMEN
Hi Txlady,
You are right. It IS totally far from Judaism. Don’t confuse Catholicism with Biblical Christianity. Biblical Christians see this as idolatry, as would Jews. After Constantine took over the Roman Catholic Church and married politics to Religion, he introduced many pagan things into the church.
Christians do believe in the Trinity, the Father, Son and Holy Spirit are One…just as water has three forms: vapor, ice and liquid.
Blessings to you. Sue

Thanks for your reply to my question. I thought that the Catholics were like the head of Christianity and then all the other sects of Christianity were spurred off from it. Am I wrong? I actually hope so. I actually had more respect for it when I was MORE ignorant of it.
As a side question, I wonder if the SKULL and BONES fraternity was named such from this Catholic worship of the blood and bones of saints or was it merely the skull and bones attributed to the LIBERTY that the pirates used. Which begs the question, if the skull and bones of the pirates stood for liberty, then was it due to them being symbols of Catholic worship?
Hi Taxlady,
Basically the RCC makes itself the “head” of Christianity. They say the Pope is God’s replacement on earth. They say there is no salvation outside of their church. Yet the Bible says all who believe ON HIM will be saved.They negate scripture for the sake of their traditions.They also believe in replacement theology which means that the RCC has replaced Israel as the Chosen People. That is why the Pope wants to divide Israel. .
I’m not sure about the skull and bones being related to Catholicism. I’ve read about them, and never read anything like that. I know they are occultic and many Presidents and politicians have been members including George Bush and his dad.

Hello. Your struggle to understand how a Christian can operate as the Roman Catholics do, has got to be unnerving and I am so sorry that you have not had the knowledge that the Evangelical Christians love Israel (God’s chosen people) and pray for you. There are many types of Christians, and we evangelicals do not consider the RCC Christian. We pray for them also. I hope you will find someone who is grounded in sound biblical doctrine who is able to give you a true picture of followers of Christ. The Old Testament is Christ hidden and the New Testament is Christ Revealed. Only with the eyes given by the Holy Spirit can one see this and understand. But he who seeks the Lord, will find Him. Isaiah 53 describes exactly our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. It is amazing! I pray for you. If your “tx” means Texas–Howdy! I am a Texan originally, now living in the State of Washington. May God bless you and give you peace and knowledge of his plan of salvation.
Dear Masha Rae Hughes.
Shalom, and thanks for helping people using this blog.

My reply:
This is a nice way to explain that Jesus is there in the full Bible. The Jews who were saved, believe in the Messiah that was supposed to come.
Hebrews 11:36-40
Some faced jeers and flogging, and even chains and imprisonment. They were put to death by stoning; they were sawed in two; they were killed by the sword. They went about in sheepskins and goatskins, destitute, persecuted and mistreated— the world was not worthy of them. They wandered in deserts and mountains, living in caves and in holes in the ground.
These were all commended for their faith, yet none of them received what had been promised, since God had planned something better for us so that only together with us would they be made perfect.
(end of scripture)
One of the errors within claimed to be Christianity, is that no Jews have ever been saved. That only when Jesus came in flesh, He was able to save people. These verses are about the First covenant witnesses, that never experienced Jesus in the flesh. Still they did meet Him in spirit, and believed the Word.
I guess today’s the born again believers in Him, are sailing in the same ship? Any of us who have meet Jesus physically?
ivarfjeld–I hope you get this. I lost you and just found this old post. We present day followers of Christ do indeed believe that God’s chosen people prior to Christ’s first coming are saved because their faith was considered as righteousness–As in Abraham’s faith was “reckoned as righteousness.” We pray for Israel and know that Gd keeps His promises which includes those to His chosen, Israel. We know that we are but a small “blip” in Gd’s dealing with man, that the Bible is primarily about His chosen.
Dear Marsha Rae Hughes.
Shalom.
The same Holy Spirit that is available today, was available for King David. The demand for blood sacrifice has changed. No longer can the blood of chickens, bulls or sheep be offered to God of the Bible as an atonement for sins. God’s Only begotten Son, Jesus of Nazareth, gave up His life, died on the cross, and shed His blood. His blood is the perfect atonement for sins, and his sacrifice introduced an age of salvation by mercy and grace, alone. Soon this age will be over. The next age is the age of judgment. Accept Jesus today as Master and savior. And He will save you from the coming wrath of God.
Marsha,
You said “We know that we are but a small “blip” in Gd’s dealing with man, that the Bible is primarily about His chosen.”
My Comment: Salvation is for both Jew and Gentile alike.
Galatians 3:28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.
God Bless.
Gloria
Amen Ivar. Amen.
What I find sad is the Vatican’s warning to attendants of the up and coming Beatification of this man, Pope John Paul II, that ticket scammers will be trying to sell tickets when the event is free, yet fail to teach that God’s gift of salvation is free. They themselves are being scammed by this false Church that claims to be the “sole Church of Christ.” (CCC 816)
Another thing to add here…i have become confused…as for my branch of Christianity, the Orthodox church, i had always believed Jesus was the Son of God not God himself wholly and utterly in which means i cannot praise God and Jesus.
For God is the father of all creation and Jesus his son is the saviour of his people. THAT IS MY VIEW and i believe its a good way to look at it.
the crossroads begin right there where many forget that it was Jesus who said himself that he was the SON OF GOD he had never said to his disciples that he is god…kinda makes me shiver in thought at how wrongly people can make such a mistake..(no offence of course to anyone here)
any thoughts??
The Tanakh, an edition of the Holy Scriptures of Judaism, put out by the Jewish Publication Society (JPS), is not simply a new translation of the Christian Old Testament. Indeed, most Christian readers would be surprised at the differences inherent in the Tanakh.The word Tanakh consists of the first letters of the words denoting the three sections of the text: the…

Dear Matthew,
If you come here to evangelize, calling people names is not a good place to start.
I know people personally who are hosts for Catholic Answers and am very familiar with the organization due to the very Catholic college I attended that focuses on Catholic apologetics.
If you want to debate, perhaps debating with a loving spirit is important. Otherwise we are clanging chimes without love. and without love we are nothing.
God bless.
I was here in Belgium when I saw that this Holy Blood of Christ procession has been happening, and the camel looked at me!
I was in Brugges Belguim in 1992 I saw the parade. it was fabulous I am a Christian believer and am not a Catholic, but I really enjoyed the parade.
Dear Jack Cook
Shalom, and love in Jesus.

My reply:
I was present duing a parade of Muslims during Muharram. They slashed their backs with iron nails, attatched to a long chain. Impressive stuff. Thinking that they could gain forgivesness for sins, by punihsing them selves, and sheeding their own blood.
I feel pitty for Catholics who feel they have cathed the blood of Jesus. And even worse. The Roman Catholic priesthood cut the late Pope like a chicken, and tapped the dying man’s blood. Now the dead Pope’s blood is branded as “holy”, and used as an object worthy of worship. Just another example of witchcraft in the name of Christ.
