2Pe 3:7  But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.
2Pe 3:8  But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
2Pe 3:9  The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
2Pe 3:10  But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.
2Pe 3:11  Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness,
2Pe 3:12  Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?
2Pe 3:13  Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.

 

 

2Th 1:7  And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels,
2Th 1:8  In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ:
2Th 1:9  Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power;
2Th 1:10  When he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired in all them that believe (because our testimony among you was believed) in that day.

Darby & Scofield’s Pre-Trib Rapture,

.

Part 16:

“Doctrine Made of Straw?”

To read Part 1, Click here… “January 25th (The Pre-Trib Rapture, Part 1)”

.

.

.

.

“O My people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths”

Isaiah 3:12

.

One of the best kept secrets in today’s “Christendom” is the truth about the origins of the so-called “Pre-Tribulation Rapture”.

.

Today’s Bible teachers would like their followers to believe that the “Pre-Tribulation Rapture” has always been taught by the Church forefathers. But this is simply not true. The fact is, today’s teachers purposely hide the fact that prior to John Nelson Darby in the 1800’s, virtually nobody taught this doctrine. Not only so, but even the unbiblical name, “The Pre-Tribulation Rapture” was coined in the 1800’s.

.

And so, today’s deceptive teachers keep their congregations ignorant of the truth in attempt to keep the lie going of “two-separate-returns-of-Christ”.

.

.

.

.

.

.

“COME OUT OF HER, MY PEOPLE!”

.

And all this wrestling with Scripture by theologians and Bible teachers, is just one more reason why God is calling His people out of “The City of Confusion”, mystery Babylon…“And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, My people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.” Revelation 18:4

.

Yes, this entire false doctrine concerning the so-called “Pre-Tribulation Rapture” is just one more heresy among many, which the apostate church-world teaches.

.

And this is why there is an end-time exodus occurring away from the harlot churches!

THE 5 OFFICES OF ORION

.

But like most of the other Signs which this website reveals, Orion too, has much more to say as he changes his position in the sky.

.

And this Soldier in the Heavens puts on different garb, as he presents the five awesome aspects of his various offices. .

From ‘Orion the Soldier’, 

and ‘Orion the Reaper’,

and ‘Orion the Archer’,

and ‘The Cross of Orion’, 

and last but certainly not least, “Orion, The Good Shepherd”. 

.

This amazing constellation presents a very complex revelation of the God’s magnificent love for a fallen planet.

Here Come the Thought Police

.

Part 4

“Conquering By Fear”

To read Part 1, click here…August 11 (“Here Come the Thought Police!” Part 1)

.

.

.

.

“The fear of man bringeth a snare:

but whoso putteth his trust in the LORD shall be safe”

Proverbs 29:25 

.

.

.

.

.

.

One very popular thought-leader made the statement, “Tyrants use fear to obtain compliance”.

.

Yes, more and more, we see our government using fear to keep the populace compliant.

.

Never was this truth more evident than during the Covid lockdowns!

.

Politicians with tyranny in their hearts rejoiced in their newly-found powers to place the fearful public under strict authoritarian control!

.

.

.

“Then was Nebuchadnezzar full of fury”

.

King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon used fear to force the citizenry to bow down to his likeness, that 60-cubit high statue made of gold…

…”whoso falleth not down and worshippeth (the golden image)

shall the same hour be cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace.”

Daniel 3:6

.

But when the three Hebrews refused to bow, Nebuchadnezzar once again used fear…

“Then was Nebuchadnezzar full of fury,

and the form of his visage was changed against Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego:

therefore he spake, and commanded that they should heat the furnace one seven times more than it was wont to be heated.”

Daniel 3:19

.

With a scary-looking, enraged countenance, the king then commanded the fiery furnace to be heated 7-times hotter.

.

And so, here were two more attempts to intimidate the three Hebrews into submission.

.

But as the story continues, the three still refused, and were cast alive into that furnace…

.

…and yet Jesus joined them there, bringing them unharmed through that harrowing experience!

TODAY’S FIERY FURNACE

.

Well, fast-forward to our day!

.

Just like history’s past dictators, today’s new breed of totalitarians use fear to gain power over the frightened masses…

.

…telling them unless they submit to these power-hungry rulers, then the consequences will be frightening:

.

“If you refuse to commit, you will lose your job!”

.

“Submit to us or the planet will succumb to greenhouse gases!”

.

“Your Christian beliefs will offend and discourage certain protected groups, possibly to the point of driving them to commit suicide!”

.

“You’ll be branded as ‘a racist’, or ‘an extremist’, or ‘a Nazi’! You will be the object of public scorn and derision!”

.

“Capitulate, or government authorities might come and knock on your door to take away your children!”

.

.

.

The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?

.

Well, the fear of Man is a powerful weapon in Satan’s toolbox of lies and oppression.

.

But our loving Savior warns us…

…”And fear not them which kill the body,

but are not able to kill the soul:

but rather fear HIM which is able

to destroy both soul and body in Hell.”

Matthew 10:28

.

And yet, while Satan uses the fear of mankind to ultimately destroy our soul…

.

…God, instead, often uses the fear to ultimately bring us back into a saving relationship with Heaven and Heaven’s Jesus!

.

And the more we know about Him via our knowledge and understanding of the Bible, we can say along with the Beloved Disciple…

…There is no fear in love;

but perfect love casteth out fear”

1st John 4:18

TODAY’S HEAVENLY SIGN

.

 

.

.

.

CASTOR AND POLLUX & THE NARROW WAY…

WIDE & NARROW GATES IN THE HEAVENS

.

As the opening verse says…

…“Enter ye in at the strait gate:

for wide is the gate,

and broad is the way,

that leadeth to destruction…”

Matthew 7:13-14 (Condensed) 

.

So, what are these two gates all about?

.

And how can I choose the right door?

.

But before we explore these questions, let’s take a look at why these two sets of stars represent these two biblical gates.

.

(This sketch, while not 100% accurate, gives a fair portrayal of how this constellation group appears at winter’s end and even into June, when above the western horizon.)

 

.

.

.

.

HOW THE GATES RELATE TO ORION & DRAGON

.

This sketch below is when these constellations are in the eastern sky in early winter (However, this constellation group can even be seen as early as July, in the pre-dawn hours). 

.

In the eastern sky, it’s not so easily seen which gate the Revelation 12 Woman will enter.

.

The Wide Gate is made of the two brightest stars of this Wave of Water Constellation.

.

Satan spews out the deadly water of his false worldly ideologies…

.

…which many of these ideologies have a form of godliness, but in some way are not in harmony…

.

…or perhaps these worldly ideologies add to the Bible, which is strictly forbidden (see Deuteronomy 4:2). 

.  

On the other hand, the Strait Gate (narrow gate) is composed of the two brightest stars of the Orion The Reaper’s sickle. The true Strait Gate represents Jesus, the Word of God.  

.

Listen… “I [Jesus] am the door:

by Me if any man enter in,

he shall be saved,

and shall go in and out,

and find pasture.”

John 10:9

Sodom Rising?

.

Part 19

“A Sodomite Church-world?”

To read Part 1, click here… August 22nd (Sodom Rising! Part 1)

.

.

.

.

The sun was risen upon the earth

when…the LORD rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah

brimstone and fire…out of heaven…

But his (Lot’s) wife looked back from behind him,

and she became a pillar of salt.

Genesis 19:23, 26

Picture – Lot Escapes – www.thebiblerevival.com offers free Bible clipart – Public Domain.

.

.

.

.

.

Various geologists, theologians/Bible teachers and laymen have gone to the area surrounding the site of that infamous city of Gomorrah…

.

…and they went there to investigate claims that ashes and balls of brimstone still lay upon the now-desolate landscape…

.

…as a God-made monument and fearful reminder of His awful Judgment upon those cities, as is written…

…”The sun was risen upon the earth

when Lot entered into Zoar.

Then the LORD rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah

brimstone and fire from the LORD out of heaven;”

Genesis 19:23, 24

.

Well, sure enough, the now-desolate landscape of that once-thriving city is still covered with ashes and some still-remaining fireballs of brimstone scattered here and there!

.

.

.

.

.

.

SODOM NOW THE LOWEST POINT IN ALL THE WORLD!

.

Of course, the area which once was the City of Sodom, just might be now completely covered (purportedly) with salt-laden water…

.

…being a testimony of its complete annihilation by God, this area now being the lowest point of altitude in the entire world (1300 feet below sea level!).

.

AN UNHEEDED WARNING!

.

As the Epistle of Jude reveals, Sodom & Gomorrah were to become a testimony of God’s eternal wrath…

…”Even as Sodom and Gomorrha…

giving themselves over to fornication,

and going after strange flesh,

are set forth for an example,

suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.”

Jude 1:7

.

Of course, this great warning from Heaven against ungodliness, has not deterred this fallen world from pursuing the very same licentious lifestyles of those doomed ancient cities.

.

.

A SODOM & GOMORRAH CHURCH-WORLD?

.

Listen to what God says to His very own people…

“…we should have been as Sodom…

Hear the word of the LORD, ye rulers of Sodom;

give ear unto the law of our God, ye people of Gomorrah.”

Isaiah 1:9, 10 (Condensed)

.

God is comparing His very own people to Sodom & Gomorrah!

.

..

.

.

.

.

.

Sodom…into ashes…an example unto those that after should live ungodly…“

.

But don’t think that this verse from Isaiah is merely for the Old Testament people of God!

.

No, just listen to Peter…

“And (God) turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrha into ashes

condemned them with an overthrow,

making them an ensample unto those that after should live ungodly…”

2nd Peter 2:1, 6, & 3:17, 18 (Condensed)

.

This passage reveals that if the works witnessed by today’s church-community, had been witnessed by the unbelieving secular people of this Sodom & Gomorrah world, they would have long ago repented of their misdeeds!

.

.

.

.

.

.

“I AM CHIEF (OF SINNERS)!”

1st Timothy 1:15

.

And so, there is no reason for any of us in the church-world to look down our noses at those who are caught up in perverted lifestyles.

.

No, but rather, we are in much worse trouble with God than they!

.

We’re the ones who should be in sackcloth & ashes, falling down before our Holy God, begging for mercy and repentance!

.

.

.

.

.

.

“RUN, CHRISTIAN, RUN!”

.

The Good News in all this is, this is still the day of Salvation!

.

And just as Lot fled from Sodom to the mountain, so to, God is calling His people to, “FLEE FROM THE WRATH TO COME!” Matthew 3:7 & Luke 3:7

ORION GETS THE VICTORY

.

.

.

Now if you will stay up all night, you will see that the tables turn very dramatically for our three warriors.

.

This is because, as night progresses, and this constellation group moves to the west…

.

…God has designed this threesome to now be in the opposite circumstance.

.

Now it is Orion and his Horse who are atop the Dragon.

.

Now Orion is about to cut off the Dragon’s head with his two-edged sword, while the Horse is stomping on his tail.

.

And of course, there needs to be no explanation, because this picture tells the whole story.

.

Jesus wins in the end! God’s people are victorious at last!

.

No wonder the Bible calls this story…“The Good News”!
