Margaret Thatcher's coffin was initially held overnight in St Mary Undercroft chapel in Westminster Palace. St. Mary being under both the House of Lords and House of Commons. This is a physicial example demonstrating how the government is on the Queen's shoulders. If the Queen falls, the government falls.
In the Chapel of St Mary Undercroft in Westminster Palace is where Margaret Thatcher requested for a private service to be held for her funeral.
Before arriving at St. Pauls Cathedral, Margaret Thatcher's body was taken to St. Clement Danes Anglican church in the City of Westminster, situated outside the Royal Courts of Justice. The church was reputedly founded by the Danes in 9th century.
The full funeral ceremony held in St. Paul's Cathedral in London
St. Paul is referred to in association with Pauline Christianity. 'He was responsible for spreading the gospel of Christ through early Christian communities across the Roman Empire in the mid-30s to the mid-50s, establishing several churches in Asia Minor and at least three in Europe, including the church at Corinth.'
'Paul taught of the life and works of Jesus Christ and his teaching of a New Covenant, or "new testament", established through Jesus' death and resurrection.
To quote specific parts of the service of relevance to all.'
The New Covenent is a formal promise made by God to everyone.
Margaret Thatcher's granddaugher Amanda shared the following:
"Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.
And take the helmet of salvation, and The Sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God: Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints" Ephesians 6:10-18
Queen Elizabeth with her head bowed in front of the ceremonial sword.
Prime Minister David Cameron quoted Holy Scripture. Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also. And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know.
Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way? Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. John 14:1-6
This scripture specificially also relates to being crowned Queen - with Christ revealing himself to me on 7th January 2013 wearing his crown.
The Bishop of London, Richard Chartres followed with his profound contribution, bringing his own insights, personal experience and relationship with Margaret Thatcher. His message is a message for everyone.
Bishop of London, Richard Chartres wearing his mitre; carrying his staff continues:
"Go forth upon thy journey from this world O Christian soul. Go in the name of Father God the Almighty who created thee. In the name of Jesus Christ his sun who suffered for thee. In the name of the Holy Spirit who stengtheneth thee. Aided by angels and archanels and all the armies of the heavenly host. May thy portion this day be in peace and they dwelling place in the heavenly Jerusalem. "
Notice a pillar behind Richard Chartres, Greek letter omega, a dolphin and 2013.
Richard Chartres communicates important messages very well. Richard uses his voice to share spiritual understanding to enable people to realise self awareness - a small step that involves a lot of work. Self awareness is being aware of our thoughts, feelings, actions, choices and how we impact other people.
Justin Welby, Archbishop of Canterbury follows by sharing this prayer:
"O LORD, support us all the day long of this troublous life, until the shades lengthen, and the evening cometh, and the busy world is hushed, the fever of life is over, and our work done. Then, Lord, in thy mercy, grant us safe lodging, a holy rest, and peace at the last; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen."
Justin Welby then places on his mitre and continues with this prayer:
Now unto him who is able to keep us from falling and to present us faultless of his glory with exceeding joy, to thee only wise God, Our Saviour Be Glory and Majesty, Dominion and Power, both now and forever. And the Blessing of God Almighty, The Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit Be with you (echos) this day and always. Amen.
Margaret Thatcher's coffin in the heart of St. Pauls Cathedral.
The Queen dressed solemnly in black wearing her bow broach in this day. As the body of Margaret Thatcher is carried out of St. Paul's Cathedral, Elizabeth is left with her memories and contemplating the life a Lady who served her.

The doors are opened, while the coffin approaches the bapstim font and light pours in. No man knows the journey of anyone or has any place to judge any human being, for even the public figures have private world. Margaret Thatcher was recorded at work and her interaction with other politicians were carried out and recorded.
There are people saying 'the crown has been stolen'. Manipulation of laws and decieving people is not excusable. Spiritual wickedness has been addressed above.
St Paul's Cathedral, London, is a Church of England cathedral and seat of the Bishop of London, currently Richard Chatres. Leading the coffin are three church officials - two carrying the imperial purple coloured cushions as seen. The Order of the Garter and Order of Merit insignia are returned upon the death of the bestowed.
Margaret Thatcher's family stand on the steps face the media gaze and people this very emotional time. The support they have gained from people within, has shown to mirror externally. The people who were gathered were respectful of the occassion.
In the Church of England, Queen Elizabeth is the Governor of the Church of over 70 million Anglican Christians. Her successor by Right is to be divinely appointed, if she took her coronation oath seriously, for the Church is a House of God.
Margaret Thatcher lived in Grimsby in a grocery store, now a Chiropractor's Hoistic Health centre. Across the road is St. Mary's Roman Catholic Church. Every day she had a reminder of there being a far higher authority beyond ths earth.
Margaret was not 'just a commoner' - She was a human being like everyone else. Margaret Thatcher lived with her truth and died with her truth. Margaret spoke of Democracy and understood that everyone has a right their view. One day officials will count the cost of silencing the voices of people who tried to communicate.
Margaret Thatcher, the first female Prime Minister set the standard for women to be empowered. The policies that she made were made for a reason. We do not always understand the reason for everything.
The Holy Bible has been translated for ease of understanding. In Saint Paul's Cathedral during this service, we heard the pre edited scripture being read by family and church officials. St. Pauls, a cathedral church 'is full of light'.
St Paul was The Apostle of Christ to early Christians guided by the Holy Spirit of Truth. The Epistles of St, Paul are found in the Holy Bible. Everyone is reminded 'This is the Kingdom belonging to Christ' - for when He ressurrected, He claimed His birthright, by DIVINE RIGHT! Today this message was compounded by officals.
'ONE word summed up Mrs Thatcher’s funeral at St Paul’s Cathedral: Britannia, writes Plymouth Sutton and Devonport Conservative MP Oliver Colvile who was there.'
'He explained Mrs Thatcher’s philosophy, her ability to connect with the man and woman in the street and the context of her “no such thing as society” remarks. With a mixture of humour and sympathy to her children and grandchildren, he explained that she believed that society is the sum of individuals and families which are interdependent on each other.' - Is this the lady that everyone knew and understood?
Peace, love and best wishes
