Angel Body Christ Dagger Defiance Defy Fallen Gesture Host Jesus Lucifer Sects Worshippers 15th
EDITORS COMMENTS
This haunting 15th century image captures the intense confrontation between two powerful religious beliefs: Luciferianism and Christianity. The Lucifereans, a sect of worshippers devoted to the fallen angel Lucifer, are depicted here defying the sacred host, the body of Christ, with a menacing dagger. The host, symbolizing the very presence of Christ, is transfixed by the Lucifereans' bold gesture of defiance. The 15th century was a time of great religious turmoil in Europe, with various sects and beliefs challenging the dominant Christian faith. The Lucifereans, who believed that Lucifer was not an evil being but rather a bringer of enlightenment and knowledge, were one such group. Their rejection of the Christian host was a symbolic act of rebellion against the established religious order. The use of a dagger in this image adds an extra layer of tension and danger. The Lucifereans' intent is clear: they are not afraid to challenge the power and authority of Christ and his followers. The image serves as a stark reminder of the religious tensions and conflicts that marked this period in history. Despite the passage of centuries, the image of the Lucifereans defying the Christian host continues to fascinate and intrigue. It is a powerful reminder of the complex and often contentious relationship between religion and human belief, and the enduring power of defiance and rebellion.
