Churches had been set up throughout the empire, but one by one they all fell under the power of the " little horn ." Some parts came under the control of the horn sooner than others. The church in Britain was perhaps the last to be defeated. The horn probably represented Europe. Its power was both political (the "fierce appearance" of the invading barbarian kingdoms) and religious (the "mouth speaking great things" – apostate Christianity). When we look at how these forces affected the British church, we can see more clearly how the apostasy happened. The First Missionaries:

    Extractions: Is the Celtic Cross a Pagan Symbol? Many claim it is, especially Neo-Pagans, who now use it freely for their own purposes. Some Christians, especially fundamentalists, are terribly afraid that they might be right and want nothing to do with it if it is tainted by Pagan associations. But the vast majority who use the Celtic Cross are Christian and unconcerned that there is any controversy. All the historical examples of actual "Celtic Crosses" are from indisputably Christian contexts. The Aberlemno Stone in Angus, the great High Crosses at Clonmacnoise, Monasterboise, Kells, Iona and many other medieval monastic sites are all clearly made in Christian times, under Christian patronage and according to conventional Christian iconography. So where does this claim of paganism come from? Henry O'Neill, in his 1857 book Illustrations of the Most Interesting of the Sculptured Crosses of Ancient Ireland writes, "I think that ancient Irish art was pagan, and was continued during the Christian period, just as the peculiar form of the Irish cross is pagan, or as the names of the months, or of the days of the week are pagan; these, and a great deal more of paganism, having continued, owing to the tenacity with which a people retain their general habits and ideas." O'Neill was not himself pagan, as much of his writing contains a Christian piety that would refute such a suggestion. Rather he is expressing pride in a noble antiquity for Irish art. During the 19th century Celtic Revival, much was said and written about native cultural survivals from pre-Christian times. "Pre-Christian" would also be pre-Norman and pre-English domination. It must be remembered that at this time Ireland was reinventing itself. The trauma of famine and foreign rule was fresh. Many ancient Gaelic myths and legends were revived to serve the cause of a renewed sense of national identity and pride in the past.

    Extractions: Links and Books Celtic Liturgical Arts What is the symbolism of the Celtic Cross? is a question I am often asked. As a craftsman and jewelry designer in the Celtic tradition I bring some very ancient symbols to a contemporary audience. The answer is not as straight foreword as one might hope. The history of this powerful symbol is ambiguous. There are many variations of interpretations and legends about the original meaning that are commonly repeated even today. The Presbyterian and Catholic are often startled to learn that the other considers this symbol their own. In our modern multicultural world the ringed cross is as much a symbol of ethnic heritage as it is of faith and it is often used as an emblem of ones Irish, Scottish or Welsh identity. At the pub when the subject comes up you might just as likely hear the explanation that the great stone Celtic Crosses were carved from the standing stones of the Druids and were originally phallic symbols, just carved into crosses to disguise their original purpose. No proof of this theory is offered and the in-your-face delivery of this information will probably intimidate you from asking for any. The barroom iconographer will swear on the graves of all his ancestors that it is true. With the rise of interest in the occult and pagan ideas in recent years you are likely to read

During the late 1st century or early 2nd Century C.E., Christianity was introduced into the British Isles. At first following the path of the Roman occupation of Britain, it began to spread to the surrounding lands, the Celtic homelands of the Gael. In order to understand the spread of the new faith and its effect on the Gaelic culture, a summary of the traditional history of Christianity in the Celtic lands, and a discussion of some of the problems with that history will be presented. A discussion of doctine and practice of Christianity among the Celts will conclude the article. Before beginning, a brief discussion of terminology is in order. First, there never was such an institution as the Celtic Church as a distinct confession apart from other Christian confessions.

Ideal for groups as well as individuals, this book is an invitation to take up that challenge. It is not about abandoning the old, for the Celtic way is not to abolish, but to change and transform: 'Our quest is to see the strands of our Christian faith once again woven into a strong cord so that the Church at every level might be renewed by the power of the Holy Spirit, so that it may share Christ boldly and lovingly to a very needy world, to the glory of God the Father.'

The book not only explores such distinctive themes as monasticism, worship, the communion of saints, and pilgramige - but goes on to consider the building of 'colonies of heaven' today. 'Colonies of heaven' are communities of prayer, artistic and creative activity, hospitality, and team ministry. Bradley proposes they will revitalize faith communities with a new spiritual and social role.

Lindisfarne, or Holy Island, is where St. Cuthbert established his abbey and helped define what we now think of as the monastic ideal. Gelfer anticipated a purely academic trip. Yet he stayed in a modern Christian community modeled on the Rules of Celtic saints and afterward felt compelled to write about his nonacademic experiences. The community had an impressive home. It was a large house with about sixteen bedrooms and numerous reception rooms plus a large kitchen and refectory where everyone sat together for the evening meal. It was located on a large plot of land with enough room for a paddock and a newly built wooden chapel. The group consisted mostly of locals raised on a diet of stories about local saints who had decided to take their life of faith to its logical conclusion by living together as a Christian community. But others came from farther afield. One woman from New Zealand had read a book published by the community and had been so inspired that she sold her house and turned up unannounced on their doorstep. Another woman in St. Petersburg, Russia, had a similar experience reading the same book. Although the book had no official distributor in either country, the community took such coincidences in stride, putting it down to the will of God. Such total faith was both refreshing and unnerving.

    Extractions: SM THE HOLY CELTIC CHURCH SM Before the establishment of the Holy Celtic Church, there existed by today’s standards, a rather disorganized ancient Celtic Church, conceived by followers of Jesus Christ. By tradition and history, it is acknowledged as the first Christian Church outside the Holy Land. Since Celtic Christianity was established prior to the first century it is classified as pre-Nicene and today teaches Christianity from that period, which is sometimes referred to as "primitive” Christianity. Their wandering clergy were loosely organized and served the many and varied Celtic tribes through out Europe that had accepted a common form of Christian faith. The Celtic people of the time existed as a tribal society united by family, language, and religion. Celtic Christianity is believed to have been formed about 37 AD and was always autonomous, never serving any head of state, king, pontiff, or patriarch. It was active before the arrival of the Romans in Britain. The Celtic Church was never involved in the heresies and religious intrigues that marred the first three centuries of the Church and never associated with any other religious jurisdiction or denomination. A scholarly debate exists regarding the identity of the founders of the Celtic Church, the exact time period it was formed, and the route taken by those founders, who journeyed from the Holy Land through Gaul. However, traditional Celtic Church oral history is gaining confirmation as archaeological and historical evidence continues to be discovered. At the time of the establishment of the Christian faith the Celts had no written language and all Celtic history was passed on orally. It was not until the fourth century that the Celts began to adopt Latin as their formal means of written communications.
