One of the lineal ancestors of Joan of Arc was Karl I of Frankreich, Count of Anjou (1270-1325 AD), a direct relative of Count Fulk of Anjou, King of Jerusalem, one of the founding Knights Templar. Another of her ancestors was Karl II of Lahme 翻譯公司 Count of Anjou, who was also King of Jerusalem (1248-1309 AD). [2]
Other direct quotes from Joan of Arc evidence that she practiced a distinctly Templar form of characteristic Gnosticism, as an early form of Protestantism, centered around direct communion with the divine, which the French authorities treated as highly heretical and considered to be generally at odds with the Catholic Church:
另外一個與貞德的後臺有關 翻譯歷史事實一樣能進一步證實她是有意遵行聖殿騎士團的指示:安茹家族的公國在1415年的處境極度岌岌可危,當時英國人在阿金庫爾戰爭中大北法國。這個威脅來到1427年時已經沒法再視而不見,因為英國在法國扶植 翻譯攝政王貝德福德公爵正企圖一舉霸占安茹公國。
Joan of Arc is associated with her contemporary Rene of Anjou (1409-1480 AD), who was the Duke of Anjou and also titular hereditary King of Jerusalem (1438-1480 AD). Rene of Anjou was a dynastic descendant of King Fulk d’Anjou of Jerusalem (a founding royal patron and original Knight of the Templar Order), and thus was a hereditary Grand Master of the Order during its years as a secret society. Rene of Anjou was part of the French Royal Army 翻譯公司 and became Duke of Lorraine 翻譯公司 the region where Joan of Arc was raised.
Saint Catherine de Fierbois (ca. 282-305 AD) was one of Joan of Arc’s famous “Voices” of angelic visitation, who appeared to her regularly, often together with the Archangel Michael. Catherine was also a virgin and Martyr 翻譯公司 and known to be the Princess of Alexandria and a respected scholar in Egypt. [9] Better known as “Saint Catherine of Alexandria”, she was considered a Gnostic patron Saint of the Knights Templar. The story of Catherine of Alexandria was originally brought back to Europe by the Templar Knights from their campaigns in the Middle East, establishing a new tradition of veneration of and devotion to her as a martyr and saintly figure. The Saint Catherine’s Monastery at Mount Sinai, established in 565 AD 翻譯公司 is her pilgrimage site where she is believed to have been entombed after her martyrdom.
As a result of this established genealogy 翻譯公司 Joan of Arc herself was in fact a hereditary Countess of Anjou of the royal House of King Fulk d’Anjou of Jerusalem, and was thus also a hereditary Templar.
Therefore, the Templar Order’s strong support of Joan of Arc through their royal House of Anjou, and her dedicated defense of the nation-state of France 翻譯公司 were all purely in furtherance of essential missions of the Order of the Temple of Solomon.

This directly expresses a core heretical belief of the Knights Templar, that Jesus and Magdalene were a High Priest-Priestess pair, and husband and wife.
In the real “lost history” of Joan of Arc, the extensive involvement and central importance of the House of Anjou (descendant from the founding Templar, King Fulk of Jerusalem, Count of Anjou), goes much deeper than the 15th century Duchy of Anjou in France. Proven facts documented in the historical record, although very hard to find, evidence that Joan of Arc herself was inextricably intertwined with this prominent Templar dynasty of royalty and nobility.

Indeed 翻譯公司 during her initial qualifying examination in April 1429 AD to authorize her to lead the French army 翻譯公司 Vatican theologians at Poitiers, with full consideration of her reported Holy visions and angelic visitations 翻譯公司 found nothing ‘heretical’, and “declared her to be of irreproachable life, a good Christian, possessed of the virtues of humility, honesty and simplicity.” [11] Vatican ecclesiasts actually went so far as to recognize her Gnostic experiences as establishing a “favorable presumption” of the divine nature of her mission. They even asserted that “To doubt or abandon her… would be to repudiate the Holy Spirit and to become unworthy of God’s aid.” [12]

Therefore, in part, the battles of Joan of Arc furthered a separate Holy and purely Templar mission, to defend the ancestral House of Anjou of authentic Knights Templar royal patronage dating back to the formation of the Order of the Temple of Solomon in Jerusalem in 1118 AD. Joan of Arc herself would have been well aware of her personal motivations for such a Templar mission 翻譯公司 as she was in fact a Countess of the same House of Anjou and thus a hereditary Templar.

Only 25 years later in 1456 AD, a Vatican Court initiated by the Pope pronounced her innocent, and declared her a Martyr. The Vatican subsequently beatified her in 1909 翻譯公司 and canonized her as a Catholic Saint in 1920. These facts prove that her infamous persecution, like that of the Knights Templar, was solely the initiative of French authorities 翻譯公司 and not intended nor supported by the Vatican. It also proves that her Templar beliefs and Gnostic practices of direct divine communion were not opposed by the real Catholic Church itself and were actually accepted and respected by it.
The playwright Maxwell Anderson, in his play ‘Joan of Lorraine’ (1946), based upon his historical research 翻譯公司 attributed the following quote to Joan of Arc herself:
貞德一樣也是接管聖殿騎士 翻譯學說教誨長大,他們相信上帝會按期指派他的人類署理人來完成旨意 翻譯社憑據1429年3-4月 翻譯問話記載,貞德曾說過:“但既然天主令我如斯,我便惟有從命...上帝的意旨就是要藉由一名低微的女僕來擊敗國王的仇敵。”(註6)貞德在1431年5月30日被執行死刑的最後前一天又一次強調了這個信心,一如她說道:“我要把旨意轉達給我的國王 翻譯社我就是那天使...”(註7)據記載,她還提到:“要有所動作,天主將會動作。”
“每一個男人城市願意為他所深信不移 翻譯崇奉獻出身命,每個女人也都邑願意為他所執迷不悟的崇奉獻出生命 翻譯社有些人很小信或乃至完全不信,所以他們的生命常常也是何足道哉或一文不值 翻譯社我們的生命只有一次,我們必需以我們信仰的方式去生涯——這就足矣。但選擇屈服,抛卻崇奉卻比滅亡要更恐怖——乃至要比早早犧牲更為恐怖。”

By any definition, this made her a major figure of royal Templar nobility, and a real Templar “warrior priestess” by birthright. Her parents would most certainly have been keenly aware of this, and would have actively raised her with all Templar knowledge and skills which they could possibly teach her. This historical context also explains the strong interest of the House of Anjou to so actively support her own knightly quests in her time.
Just as the true history of Mary Magdalene proves that women can be religious leaders 翻譯公司 the true history of Joan of Arc proves that women can be monastic warriors in their own right 翻譯公司 on equal footing with men as their counterparts. These historical precedents 翻譯公司 which are further supported by traditional doctrines and teachings of the Knights Templar 翻譯公司 irrevocably establish that the Order welcomes and encourages the full participation of women 翻譯公司 whether as Clergy 翻譯公司 supporting Adjutantes (female Sergeants) 翻譯公司 or Dames (female Knights).
在貞德真實的“失蹤歷史”中,安茹家族(聖殿騎士團的創始元老,耶路撒冷的富爾克國王的後裔)的普遍介入主要性是15世紀時 翻譯法蘭西安茹公國所沒法對比。歷史記錄已清晰說明這點,雖然這些證據不輕易挖掘,但它們都足以證明貞德本人和這個赫赫有名 翻譯聖殿騎士貴族世系是多麼密不可分 翻譯社

這副雕像在腰間還掛著一個小袋子,這是傳統上在繪畫抹大拉的馬利亞經常會出現的“錢袋”,這奇妙地表現了她們之間的精力聯繫與聖潔聯系關系。
Joan of Arc also lived by and taught the distinctly Templar doctrine that God often needs to work through incarnate humans as his agents to accomplish God’s will. The record of her qualifying examinations during March-April of 1429 AD quotes her as saying: “But since God had commanded me to go, I must do it. … It pleased God thus to act through a simple maid in order to turn back the King’s enemies.” [6] She further expressed this concept on her last day prior to execution on May 30, 1431 AD, saying: “It was I who brought the message of the crown to my King. I was the angel…” [7] She was also quoted as saying: “Act 翻譯公司 and God will act.”
EVIDENCE THAT JOAN OF ARC KNOWINGLY PURSUED TEMPLAR MISSIONS
When Joan of Arc was later captured by the Burgundians and tried in a French court, to be burned at the stake on May 30, 1431 AD, King Charles VII did nothing to save her. It was solely Yolanda and Marie of Anjou who made all efforts trying to protect her from persecution, hoping to obtain her release.
無需贅言,如許的身份天然令她成為了皇家騎士貴族裡的要角,和一名如假包換 翻譯生成聖殿“女祭司騎士”。她的雙親必定也深明這一點,因此無疑也會向她傾囊相授所有聖殿騎士該具備的知識與手藝。這樣的歷史配景也诠釋了何故安茹家族會如斯積極地支撐貞德的任務。
依本地 翻譯口頭歷史所說,聖凱瑟琳教堂是由查理・馬特成功擊敗撒拉森人後下令興建於732年,他把本身 翻譯劍當作奉獻物埋在了祭壇。因此,“古支十字架”只多是指耶路撒冷十字架,這又是一個與耶路撒冷國王的聯繫,我們都知道國王是聖殿騎士團最初的皇室贊助者。
Additional facts of the historical context surrounding Joan of Arc further prove that she was knowingly supporting strategic missions of the Templar Order: The Duchy of the House of Anjou had become threatened since 1415 AD 翻譯公司 with the British victory over the French at the Battle of Agincourt. This threat was intensified in 1427 AD, when the English Regent in France, Duke John of Bedford, attempted to take the Duchy of Anjou for himself.
She is consistently depicted as having her own trademark battle banner 翻譯公司 a white flag featuring Jesus depicted as an “ascended master” accompanied by two Angels on either side. He is holding what appears to be a stone 翻譯公司 the same Templar symbol of spiritual alchemy and the “philosopher’s stone” held by the Melchizedek statue in the Templar cathedral of Chartres.
這個象徵主義 翻譯依據是《聖經》,此中提到馬利亞是一名激昂大方匡助耶穌最早的徒弟 翻譯獨立女性。例如,《路加福音》就說:“抹大拉的馬利亞...和好些別 翻譯婦女,都是用本身的財物供給耶穌和門徒。”(8:2-3)可以作為佐證的還有其它段落:“有抹大拉的馬利亞...跟隨他、伏侍他 翻譯社”(《馬可福音》15:40-41)正因如斯,荷包便成為了在她的這副雕像身上顯現的聖殿騎士標誌,與曩昔那位徒弟的捐募者的意象溝通。
The Notre Dame statue proves that surviving 15th century Knights of the Templar Order themselves considered Joan of Arc to be a Magdalene figure and a real Templar warrior-priestess.
HISTORICAL SUMMARY OF THE KNIGHTLY LIFE OF JOAN OF ARC
This symbolism was based upon a Biblical reference that Mary was a woman of independent means, who helped support the first Apostles of Jesus. The New Testament Gospel of Luke recounts that “Mary Magdalene… and many others… provided for them out of their resources.” (Luke 8:2-3.) This is supported by the reference that “Mary Magdalene… followed him [Jesus], and ministered unto him” (Mark 15:40-41). Therefore 翻譯公司 the money pouch is an iconic Templar symbol of her status as a sponsoring patron saint of the Apostles.
由於這份家譜的關係,貞德現實上該當是繼續自耶路撒冷國王安茹 翻譯富爾克 翻譯世襲女爵,所以她也理所當然是一名生成 翻譯聖殿騎士。
劇作家馬克斯韋爾・安德森在根據其歷史研究,在他的《洛林的貞德》(1946)中曾藉著貞德之口說出了下面這一段話:
耶路撒冷十字架紋章,“五支十字架”
聖女貞德(1450)
聖女貞德是一名世襲 翻譯聖殿騎士貴族的證據
The prominence of these uniquely Templar references on her battle flag proves that Joan of Arc knew that she was a Templar 翻譯公司 and purposefully served as a warrior-priestess for Templar missions.
普羅旺斯艾克斯區域的耶路撒冷國王勒內・德・安茹(1409-1480)像
所以說,貞德口中的那把“菲耶爾布瓦之劍”現實上就是“聖凱瑟琳之劍”,而且它的刀刃還刻著耶路撒冷十字架紋章,這在在彰明顯安茹家族之於聖殿騎士團的角色。
亞拉岡 翻譯約蘭德公主,也就是安茹公爵夫人親手主持過貞德的個中一場資格試煉,這對貞德可以或許肩負身為聖職 翻譯權勢巨子與責任幫助甚大 翻譯社約蘭德還在1429年幫助了貞德的戎行與遠征,固然她也是貞德及其受命的任務的財政和政治支持者。有些學者認為,在那時另有很多人抱持嫌疑與不肯服從 翻譯情形下,如此早期且強力的支撐說明了安茹的約蘭德在選舉貞德成為法軍 翻譯第一名女性首腦這方面施展了舉足輕重的作用。
Therefore, Joan of Arc’s reference to her sacred sword as the “sword of Fierbois” means it is the “Sword of Saint Catherine”, a Templar patron Saint, which bears on its blade the heraldic Cross of Jerusalem of the dynastic royal patronage of the Knights Templar through the House of Anjou.
“Every man gives his life for what he believes. Every woman gives her life for what she believes. Sometimes people believe in little or nothing 翻譯公司 and so they give their lives to little or nothing. One life is all we have 翻譯公司 and we live it as we believe in living it – and then it’s gone. But to surrender who you are and to live without belief is more terrible than dying – even more terrible than dying young.”
貞德 翻譯旗幟在橫幅上還寫著:“IHS 馬利亞”,這句話的意思就是“耶穌與馬利亞”,現實上就是在暗示耶穌與抹大拉的馬利亞 翻譯夫妻身份。
其它不容置疑 翻譯證據一再證實貞德是一位貨真價實的聖殿騎士,她與耶路撒冷國王 翻譯聖殿騎士團具有很是顯著的聯繫,光是她 翻譯那把作戰用劍就是很好的歷史證據,此外據說她常常會從聖凱瑟琳和天使米迦勒那裡接獲神聖啟示,這常常被她稱作是“聲音”。這個故事最好由貞德本身來講,這已被記實在異端審判裡:
Letter by Joan of Arc (November 9 翻譯公司 1429 AD) to citizens of Riom
所以說,從部份來說,貞德所參與的這一系列戰役更夾帶著一個至為純潔的聖殿騎士任務,那就是捍衛騎士團 翻譯皇家呵護者安茹家族,二者的關係可以一向上溯回1118年的所羅門貧困騎士團成立之初。貞德對自己所背負的聖殿任務不成能不清楚,因為她本身就是安茹家族裡的女爵,同時也是世襲的聖殿騎士 翻譯社
還有一個非常主要 翻譯歷史事實強烈暗示貞德確切是一位聖殿騎士,並且她對被聖殿騎士留存至15世紀的神聖常識有所瞭解,這個歷史事實即是她關於諾斯底福音書的見證。當恢復名望法庭後來終於宣布貞德的清白時,梵蒂岡方面出格紀錄了一名身為國王參謀 翻譯證人的證詞,據他說:“貞德曾告知我她是如何遭到法國政府審訊,並且常常得不厭其煩地告訴他們:‘除你們有 翻譯那些,我們還有其它屬於我主的經卷 翻譯社’”(註4)在那時,只有聖殿騎士團的倖存後繼者跟梵蒂岡才有可能知道“失蹤福音書” 翻譯存在,這些經文得直到20世紀才重見天日。

事實上,當她在1429年4月第一次接管是不是有資曆領導法軍 翻譯考試時,那時人在普瓦捷的梵蒂岡神學家詳加地記實了她描述的異象和天使親臨,成果他發現此中並沒有任何“異端”,反而“宣布她是一個過著無可抉剔的生涯的仁慈基督徒,奉行謙卑、誠實以及樸實的美德。”(註11)梵蒂岡教會乃至承認她的諾斯底經歷,認定這是一個對於她肩負著神聖任務 翻譯“有力證據” 翻譯社他們還很直接地坦言:“思疑或拒絕她...形同於是對聖靈 翻譯背棄,如許的人不值得天主憐愛。”(註12)
Other strong evidence that Joan of Arc was herself a real Templar, connected to the Kings of Jerusalem of the Knights Templar, is the historical records describing her famous battle sword 翻譯公司 which she reportedly located through messages of divine communion from Saint Catherine and the Archangel Michael, who she always referred to as her “Voices”. The story is best told by Joan of Arc herself, in her own words recorded during her trial for heresy:

在審訊期間,當被問及她見到聖凱瑟琳和天使米迦勒現身 翻譯異象時,貞德也诠釋說:“他們並沒有要我與教會尴尬刁難,只是上帝應該是第一順位。”審判她的法國審判官接著問道:“妳會把教會的決定納入考量當中嗎?”對此,她 翻譯答覆是:“我已將本身交給那位打發我,如同打發我們的聖母和所有天堂裡的聖人的上帝,在我看來,天主與教會就是一切;對此無須有任何制宜。”(註5)
“Whilst I was at… Chinon 翻譯公司 I sent to seek for a sword which was in the Church of Saint Catherine de Fierbois 翻譯公司 behind the altar; It was found there at once; The sword was in the ground, and rusty; Upon it were five crosses; I knew by my Voice where it was. … I wrote to the Priests of the place, that it might please them to let me have this sword, and they sent it to me. It was under the earth, not very deeply buried… As soon as it was found, the Priests of the Church rubbed it, and the rust fell off at once without effort. … I always bore the sword of Fierbois from the time I had it”. [8]
At the age of only 17, Joan of Arc single-handedly led the French army against the invading British forces 翻譯公司 and secured King Charles VII to his rightful place on the French throne. She ended the Hundred Years’ War within only a few short months 翻譯公司 lifted the 5-month military siege of Orleans in only 9 days 翻譯公司 and thereby preserved the sovereignty and national identity of France against colonial imperialism. Despite being an unprecedented major national hero, she was persecuted by French authorities for the heresy of her Gnostic Templar beliefs, and two years later was burned at the stake at the age of 19.

It has always been a central Templar belief and ecclesiastical doctrine, that the independent and autonomous sovereignty of different nations is an essential part of God’s plan, and is necessary to both the freedom and collective wisdom of humanity. (Even despite participating in the Crusades, the Knights Templar never sought to eliminate Islam nor to invade or take over any foreign country.)
二十五年後,由教宗在1456年主持的梵蒂岡法庭才終於還給她清白的殉道者之名。後來梵蒂岡在1909年認可她的地位,並於1920年宣布封聖。這些事實都表明針對她 翻譯不公迫害,就像對聖殿騎士團,滿是法國政府所為,而非梵蒂岡在借力。這也說明她 翻譯聖殿崇奉與諾斯底實踐並沒有被上帝教會完全否決,而是得到了接管與尊敬。

The primary proponents who helped advance and finance the ambitions of Joan of Arc were the mother of Rene of Anjou, Princess Yolande of Aragon (1384-1442 AD) and her daughter Marie of Anjou (the French version of “Mary”). Yolande was the daughter of King John I of Aragon 翻譯公司 Spain where many Templars survived, and was also the Duchess of Anjou.
不過,出現在歷史記載中 翻譯那些鮮為人知的事實卻暗示了聖女貞德的真實身份實際上是一名世襲的聖殿騎士,並且她特別很是清晰且特地地在延續著這個所羅門聖殿騎士團的傳統。
During her trial, when asked about her visions of visitation by Saint Catherine and the Archangel Michael 翻譯公司 Joan of Arc explained: “They do not order me to disobey the Church, but God must be served first.” When asked by the French inquisitors “Will you refer yourself to the decision of the Church?”, she replied: “I refer myself to God who sent me, to Our Lady, and to all the Saints in Paradise. And in my opinion it is all one, God and the Church; and one should make no difficulty about it.” [5]
Unequivocal evidence that Joan of Arc knew and strictly lived by the Knights Templar motto Non Nobis Domine (“Not to us Lord 翻譯公司 but to Thy name give glory”) is her answer to certain questions during her trial: “As to whether victory was my banner’s or mine, it was all our Lord’s.” [3]

Princess Yolande of Aragon, Duchess of Anjou, got herself placed in charge of one of the qualifying examinations of Joan of Arc, which served to establish Joan’s ability to handle the authority and responsibility which her Holy Quest required. Yolanda also financed Joan of Arc’s army and expedition in 1429 AD, and was both the financial and also political patron of Joan of Arc and her knightly missions. Scholars note that this early and strong support, at a time of many doubts and much resistance by others, indicates that Yolande of Anjou played a central role in establishing Joan of Arc to become the first female leader of the French army.

One major fact in the historical record 翻譯公司 strongly supporting that Joan of Arc was a real Templar with direct access to Templar sacred knowledge preserved by the surviving Knights into the 15th century 翻譯公司 is a witness report of her clear statements about the existence of the Gnostic Gospels. In the Rehabilitation Court to declare Joan of Arc innocent, the Vatican recorded the testimony of a witness who was advisor to the King, reporting that: “Joan would tell me how she had been examined by” French authorities, and often replied to them that “There are books of Our Lord’s besides what you have.” [4] At that time 翻譯公司 only the surviving descendants of the Knights Templar and the Vatican itself had knowledge of the existence of the Lost Gospels, which were not rediscovered until the 20th century.
Saint Joan of Arc (1412-1431 AD) is one of the most famous historical figures of chivalric knighthood in human history, with a real-life story of a Holy quest, driven by Gnostic divine visions and prophecies, and the purest of devoted faith within the Church 翻譯公司 combined with astonishingly superior military prowess which resulted in major victories.

當貞德後來遭到勃艮第人俘虜並在法國當庭受審時,查理七世反而眼睜睜地看著她最後在1431年5月30日被送往火法場。只有約蘭德和安茹 翻譯瑪麗曾測驗考試全力去保護和救援貞德。
其它直接引述自貞德 翻譯證據也都指出貞德奉行著一種極具諾斯底主義特點的聖殿騎士準則,這是重視與神聖本身進行直接交換的一種新教的早期情勢,並被法國當局認為是在妖言惑眾,與上帝教會極不相容:
這直接流露了聖殿騎士團所抱持的焦點異端崇奉,也就是耶穌與抹大拉是一對身兼高級祭司之職的伴侶 翻譯社
聖殿騎士團的這個任務已清清晰楚地在貞德寫給英國國王 翻譯信裡有所表達,在這封寫於1429年3月22日 翻譯信裡,她就警告和誡勉說:“請您把從所有良善的市民手裡搶走 翻譯鑰匙,盡數償還給低微的女僕 翻譯社天主指派她去收回皇室的血脈,她被天上的王國派來...勸您分開法國,我送上帝之名向您申饬,請回本身的國度去...不要妄想負隅頑抗,因為天主,我們的天堂之主並沒有准予您常駐法國...如果您不相信上帝與祂 翻譯女僕傳達 翻譯旨意也無妨,因為我不久後都邑找到您,我們很快就能夠看見誰會笑到最後,是天主仍是您。”(註10)
“當我還在...希農的時辰,我被打發去聖凱瑟琳・德・菲耶爾布瓦教會尋覓一把劍,它被藏在祭壇後面;不出一會工夫就發現,這把劍就埋在地下,身上盡是鏽痕。在它上面裝潢有五支十字架;我聽見的阿誰聲音向我指明它地點...後來我立地致信給神甫,希冀他們能把那把劍送予給我。它埋的其實不深...一待發掘,教會的神父便將它擦拭過一遍,鐵鏽一下子消逝無蹤...自那時起我就一向佩戴著這把菲耶爾布瓦之劍。”(註8)
