Christianity
Your exploration continues here. This section is on how Christianity fits within the Order of the Dryghtyn.
From the Old Testament to the New Testament, there are common themes between Christianity and other world religions. Christianity fits within the Order of the Dryghtyn in that the stories of the Old Testament tell of creation, rules, poetry, chosen people and lands, judgment, and ultimately the need for a greater sacrifice than what the chosen could provide to the spiritual plane.
In the New Testament, the Spirit is born into the world to be the living sacrifice for the chosen people. This Spirit lives, is persecuted, and executed as the sacrificial lamb of the Divine's chosen people. Whether Their chosen accept the gifts given them from the Divine, this blood ritual was performed to point humanity to the Divine. This is practiced still in most churches. The blood and body of the Spirit are consumed to accept the gifts of the sacrifice of this Spirit.
The Lord and The Lady are the Divine. They are both All. And in their work between planes, they used the birth and death of a human to help creation find a way to the spiritual. The Spirit is part of both of them and traverses the world, affecting change in people all the time. This is a religion that encourages the use of magical blood rituals (transforming juice or wine into blood) and cannibalism (transforming bread, crackers, or biscuits into the flesh of the living Spirit) to be connected to the Divine. When the Spirit returned to the Spiritual plane, the physical body ceased to exist, but could be reborn into the world within a new body.
There is a belief that the physical body existed as it passed over the bridge of death and that body was perfected and will return to take Their chosen back to the spiritual plane. This remains to be seen, but could occur in the future as a sign from the Divine.
