Daily Devotional, Year 3: December 3

.

.

.

Noble Bereans,

.

Part 65:

“Ellen White’s Prophetic Gift”

To read part 1, click here…”September 2nd (Noble Bereans?)”

.

.

.

.

.

.

“And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven,

having the everlasting gospel

to preach unto them that dwell on the earth,

and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people,

Saying with a loud voice,

Fear God, and give glory to Him;

for the hour of His judgment is come:

and worship him that made heaven,

and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.

Revelation 18:1, 2, 4

.

.

.

.

.

.

 

Harold Camping thought Ellen White to be a false prophet, because he taught that God was finished with prophets in the New Testament era when the Bible was a finished Book.

.

And, of course, Camping was correct!

.

God was no longer raising up prophets.

.

.

.

“Behold, I will bring again the shadow of the degrees, which is gone down in the sun dial of Ahaz, ten degrees backward”

Isaiah 38:8

.

https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Ellen_G_White.jpgSo, just how does this fact reconcile with Ellen White’s prophetic ministry?

.

Oh no, Ellen White herself never claimed infallibility. Nor did she claim her writings to be on par with Scripture.

.

But what her critics, such as Harold Camping, did not realize, was that God was bringing a people back under the Law.

.

And the Adventist Church was a microcosmic picture of the Old Testament Jews.

.

And just as God added 15 years to Hezekiah’s life, so also, God was extending the Church era 150 years, from 1844 to 1994.

.

And just as God made the sundial go back 10 degrees, so also, God was bringing His people back under the Law.

.

.

.

.

.

.

“And the temple of God was opened in heaven, and there was seen in His temple the Ark of His Testament:”

.

But why would God do such a thing? Why was God seemingly going back to Old Testament Law?

Listen…“And the temple of God was opened in heaven,

and there was seen in his temple the ark of His Testament:

and there were lightnings, and voices, and thunderings,

and an earthquake, and great hail.”

Revelation 11:19

.

The Book of Revelation prophesied that the Ark of the Covenant in Heaven would appear in the last days.

.

And Ellen White was the divinely-chosen messenger to reveal the heavenly sanctuary and its Ark, containing the Ten Commandments.

.

And so, being a throwback to the Old Testament, Ellen White was allowed to prophesy in a similar manner to Old Testament prophets.

.

Ark of the Covenant & Cross/Scepter & Flower of the Field Constellations-you may share

.

.

.

.

“For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.”

1st Corinthians 13:9

.

https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Ellen_G_White.jpg

And so then, Harold Camping correctly taught that God was no more bringing prophecies in the New Testament Church-era.

.

And yet, Ellen White’s ministry was the one exception.

.

And this 3rd Angel’s Message is given to reconcile those first two messages.

.

.

.

.

.

TODAY’S PRAYER…http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Holy_bible.jpg

“Dear Lord, Help me to be an open-minded seeker of truth, even if it means giving up a very highly regarded Church opinion! Let me be willing to investigate any seemingly new teaching if it appears to have some biblical validity…

TODAY’S HEAVENLY SIGN

. 

.

. 

.

THE ARK IN THE HEAVENS

Two Turtledoves birds & Flower Of The Field Constellations

.

If a person goes out at night, beginning in April (earlier in southern-most latitudes, and later in northern-most), in the pre-dawn hour…

.

…they just might locate the constellation commonly referred to as the  Sagittarius Constellation.

.

It is located in the southern sky. (Each night it appears a little earlier, slowly inching westward, through the summer, until it finally disappears below the western horizon in November.)

Ark of the Covenant Constellation

.

At first, it simply appears as two twin birds flying westward.

.

But if you look once again, it just might appear as a long box-like figure, with one star on the right, as you face it, and two stars on the left.

.

The box, of course would be the Ark, and the stars on either side would represent angels…

.

…which are sometimes referred to as stars in the Bible (for instance, “the seven stars are the angels…” Revelation 1:20).

.

This is a star-chart from Wikipedia, in which the editor of this site has sketched in this Sagittarius Constellation, to show how God created it to appear.

“But when ye shall see the abomination of desolation,

then let them that be in Judaea flee to the mountains:”

The crude expression…“Time to get out of Dodge!”, was coined back in the 1970’s from a television show based on that infamous town, Dodge City, in which Old West gunfighters were made legends by storywriters.

TIME TO GET OUT OF SODOM AND GOMORRAH!http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Genesis19-17.jpg

.

Well, this concept of getting out of Dodge is nothing new!http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Genesis19-17.jpg

.

Even back in the days of Lot, Abraham’s nephew, God warned him to “get out of Dodge!”

.

But of course, back in those days, “Dodge” was actually called “Sodom and Gomorrah”.

“FLEE TO THE MOUNTAINS”

Mark 13:14 & Luke 21:21

.

http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Genesis19-17.jpg

Yes, the day finally came in which things had devolved into such sad and horrible decadence, that God’s wrath was finally ready to be poured upon the four cities of Sodom!

.

And God was warning His people to “look not behind thee…escape to the mountain…lest thou be consumed!” Genesis 19:17

.

.

THE SAD FORMER “REFORMATION NATIONS”

.

Sadly, we have reached that fateful day in which the destruction of Sodom will be repeated!

.

And the very nations which once enthusiastically embraced the Christian Reformation, have all but turned away from the Gospel of Christ and are now receiving their just recompense from God Almighty!

.

It’s such a sad ending for these once-great nations! It makes us want to cry!

.

.

SODOM RISING ONCE AGAIN!

. 

Destruction and spiritual bankruptcy have replaced the love of Christ in those once-faithful nations!

.

Secularism and dead religions have been allowed to move in and take control of those spiritually dead nations!

.

The great multitudes are now in spiritual darkness!

.

And Sodom and Gomorrah are once again rising up all around God’s perplexed people!

SCHOOLS OF SODOM!

.

And the once-trusted institutions, such as school systems and libraries, are now teaching children such things as atheism, evolution, Socialist Marxism, and now even beginning to aggressively push Sodomy and even neo-racism!

.

Yes, there is a movement afoot to endorse and even encourage your children to embrace sodomy in its various forms. And just as the men of Sodom tried to force themselves on Lot’s heaven-sent guests, society is now beginning to press this heinous and unhappy lifestyle upon your children!

.

And if God destroyed that city because men attempted to force themselves upon grown beings, then how much more upon a society that is forcing its perversions upon relatively innocent little children?

“He cast upon them the fierceness of His anger, wrath, and indignation, and trouble, by sending evil angels among them.”

Psalm 78:49

.

But God is purposely allowing this to go forth!

.

A myriad of unseen “evil angels” are now marshaling all the governments, learning institutions, and corporations in a concerted effort to force the public to bow down to these devilish, antichrist ideologies! (“He cast upon them the fierceness of His anger, wrath, and indignation, and trouble, by sending evil angels among them.” Psalm 78:49)

.

And it is God’s purpose to give His people a loud wake-up call to get their children out of this horrible situation before they become brainwashed into these evil ideologies!

.

In other words, “It’s time to get out of Dodge”, as the saying goes!

HIGH-PRICED CHRISTIAN SCHOOLS

http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Homeschoolers_playing_Dutch_Blitz_at_picnic_gathering.jpg

.

And the sad fact is, that almost all Christian children attend public schooling!

.

It would have been really nice if the churches had started a volunteer program in which parents could have taken turns operating a very low-cost schooling.

.

But instead, churches hired professionals to run their schools, instead of using church facilities, often in expensive buildings with high upkeep, which resulted in costly monthly tuition, which few could afford, especially families with several school-age children!

.

.

.

.

RACISM NOW BEING TAUGHT AND ENCOURAGED

.

Tragically, Satan, in his role as The False Prophet, has been permitted to speak, “as a dragon”. (Revelation 13:11).

.

And so, this unseen spirit of antichrist works through the various media Goliaths to force the world to bow down to his unchristlike qualities.

.

And he even is speaking as a dragon in today’s schools, not only pushing various antichrist ideologies, such as atheistic socialism, etc….

.

But not content with these ideologies, Satan has begun to rewrite history to make it seem that the USA was founded on racism. And school children are now being taught that skin color determines that they are inferior in one way or another.

.

Such a great lie is not only teaching dishonesty but will undoubtedly create hatred and distrust in the hearts of schoolchildren against their own fellow classmates!

.

.

.

.

.

THE HIGHEST CALLING!

https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:USMC-13550.jpg. 

But there is no higher calling than for parents to bring up their children “in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.” Ephesians 6:4

.

And if there is any way possible, caring parents should attempt to home-school their children even if it means giving up any and every luxury!

http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Homeschoolers_playing_Dutch_Blitz_at_picnic_gathering.jpg.

Some Christian parents are forming home-schooling groups. And an increasing number of on-line home-school programs are now being offered. 

.

And at the very least, even to just sit down daily with the children after they return from public schooling, encouraging them, by example, to learn to love reading!

.

Nevertheless, to get them as far away as possible from public school is by far, the best option!

.

This intimate daily reading circle would probably produce incredible results! (of course, the best Book is the Bible!)

GOOD NEWS…where sin abounded, grace did much more abound!”

Proverbs 25:25 & Romans 5:20

.

http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Genesis19-17.jpg

The Good News is that our heavenly Father is willing to help His people to make this end-time exodus, as He calls us out of spiritual 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 

.

May the Lord give you great grace and prayerful wisdom in these troublous times ahead!

“JUDGE NOT, THAT YE BE NOT JUDGED!”

Matthew 7:1

.

Now, just a word of caution. These truths from Heaven are given “for me and me alone!” We are not to look at others with a judgmental eye.

.

And anyway, we just don’t know how God is working in the hearts and lives of people, nor do we know the true motives of others!

.

So, we simply look into the mirror and realize that “Christ Jesus came into this world to save sinners. of whom I AM CHIEF!” 1st Timothy 1:15

.

Yes, my own heart is filled with enough evil to keep me busy for a lifetime, trying to purify it from my own innate wickedness!

FLEEING WOMAN OF REVELATION 12…

.

Constellation- Woman of Revelation 12 flees to the mountains Mark 13:14

.

“And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.  And the serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away of the flood.” Revelation 12:14, 15. So this Revelation 12 Woman Constellation gives a heavenly portrait of a woman fleeing from the Dragon, who is spewing water in her pathway.

.

The sketch to the right is “Valley of Decision” Constellation, the Woman of Revelation 12 Constellation, and the Dragon Constellation. This is a concept sketch. These three constellations are not in this position in the night sky. So please don’t try to find them together like this. All of the other sketches have the constellation in the correct position, unless otherwise noted. For locations of each of these Constellations, please go to the article for that particular constellation.

Daily Devotional, Year 1 – January 3rd

.

.

(How Do I See These Signs Of Heaven?

.

Part 7:

“A DISCLAIMER ABOUT THIS SITE”)

To read Part 1, go here…January 2nd (How Do I See These Signs of Heaven?)

.

.

.

.

Anticipating the future backlash against this website, the following info must be shared.

.

Although the editor may be the human editor to write down these things, yet make no mistake…

.

…this site and the articles herein are not the inspiration of the editor.

.

 And yet, the inspiration for these articles, and the information regarding these signs in the sun, moon, and stars have been inspired, hopefully 100% by Heaven! 

ABOVE PICTURE: Prayer – Wherefore He is able to save to the uttermost…” Hebrews 7:25

.

.

.

.

.

“But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world …”

1st Corinthians 1:27

.

Now, as far as these teachings and admonitions, let it be made very clear, that we are all struggling with sin!

.

In other words, even though the fallible pen has written down these truths, they have been given and presented, hopefully by Heaven alone!

.

As a matter of fact, hopefully we are convicted in heart at the very high bar which has been set by this website, and struggle daily to overcome in all these areas of Christlike conduct!

.

By God’s grace, we’ll daily grow in grace and knowledge as we prayerfully read and take these articles to heart!

.

ABOVE PICTURE: Prayer – Wherefore He is able to save to the uttermost…” Hebrews 7:25

.

.

.

.

.

“These (Bereans) were more noble…in that they received the Word with all readiness of mind, and searched the Scriptures daily, whether those things were so”

.

http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:USMC-06831.jpgAnd so, in conclusion, the warning and encouragement goes out to emulate those “Noble Bereans”, in which they “received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so”. Acts 17:11

.

In other words, while this website fully believes the information herein is biblical, it makes no guarantees, and leaves the responsibility with the readers to study, study, pray, and study some more to verify the things written herein!

.

And especially on any controversial issues, the Reader is highly encouraged to read, not just one, but many articles in order to get the full context. 

.

And should the Lord bless the reader by revealing these signs written in the sun, moon, and stars, then the reader will know for a certainty that these starry messengers are sent from God.

A HEAVENLY HOBBY

.

.

.

.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:1_vermont_night_stargazing_panorama_2009.jpg

“Lift up your eyes on high,

and behold Who hath created these things;

that brings out their host by number:

He calls them all by names by the greatness of His might,

for that He is strong in power;

not one faileth.”

Isaiah 40:26

FIRST FIND ORION & 7 STARS

http://theheavensdeclare.net/orion-constellation/.

The very first step in finding these many constellations, should be to find the two main constellations: Orion, and the 7 Stars (aka, The Big Dipper).

.

These two constellations represent Christ (Orion), and His Church (7 Stars).

.

And just as these are the easiest constellations to find, so too, the first place to begin studying the Bible is the Four Gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke, John).

.

These four books present Christ and His Church, when He walked the earth, just as Orion and the 7 Stars represent Christ and His Church, as seen up in the heavens.

.

Then, once you are comfortable finding these two constellations, you can begin to locate the next closest constellations, and so on.

.

ANOTHER HEAVENLY HOBBY: PRAYER-WALKS

.

Now if you’re fortunate enough to be able to go on nightly walks, and you live in an area where you can safely view the stars, here is another Heavenly Hobby which Signs Of Heaven endorses…

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Starry_Night_at_La_Silla.jpg.

Why not combine star-watching with prayer, as you walk? What a great way to draw closer to God!

.

It cannot be over-stressed, just how wonderful it is to walk under the dark canopy of Heaven, while lifting up one’s heart to our Heavenly Father!

There is a closeness to God that cannot be described with words!

.

(And even if you cannot safely do this, you can always do such prayer-walks in the daytime, in a safe place, such as a mall, which is every bit as effective, prayer-wise.

.

And for those who are in confinement, one can view these starry signs on the Internet, or simply listen to Scripture on audio.

.

Either way, all such may enjoy God’s richest blessings at this very time in which God is pouring out all Heaven’s treasures upon anyone willing to forsake all, and follow Jesus!)

Isa 59:14  And judgment is turned away backward, and justice standeth afar off: for truth is fallen in the street, and equity cannot enter.
Isa 59:15  Yea, truth faileth; and he that departeth from evil maketh himself a prey: and the LORD saw it, and it displeased him that there was no judgment.

Daniel 7:25

.

And God mercifully gave this nation an incredible constitution: a wonderful gift given by the Almighty, because of cruel tyranny He allowed by the harsh hand of Satan, throughout the various European nations during the centuries of The Dark Ages.

.http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Scene_at_the_Signing_of_the_Constitution_of_the_United_States.jpg

Yes, throughout the Dark Ages of Europe, Satan, using the evil, apostate church of that day, wore out the saints through various forms of persecution, against them and against the Bible they loved!

.

And the forefathers of this new nation eventually named it, “The United States of America”.

.

.

.

Yes, God in His mercy, gave this nation His manifold blessings, knowing how His people suffered so greatly through the centuries of the Dark Ages of Europe! And He allowed the United States to grow and thrive.

.

But as America prospered, the Church began to also enjoy the carnal riches and pleasures of the world. Thus, the Church quickly became sleepy-eyed and lukewarm, fulfilling the words of Jesus…“Rev 3:15  I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. 
Rev 3:16  So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of My mouth. 
Rev 3:17  Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:”

.

But the U.S.A. was allowed to continue, gradually devolving from its original greatness.

.

And as a result, over the past decades, the secular leaders of this nation, without any connection to Heaven lost whatever wisdom that God mercifully shed on this once great nation!

.

And now, judgment was finally and fully falling on the world’s last great hope for true liberty.

.

And those secular and atheist leaders made increasingly bad decisions for this declining nation. In the various government bodies, God’s judgment was now falling. And as of late, it seems apparent that God’s blessings have been removed from this decadent, cornucopian super-society, while a few other nations seem to be getting more and more powerful!

.

But behind the scenes, in the dark shadows of the spiritual realm, Satan had now been permitted to carry out his evil plans. This world’s last great experiment in freedom was ripe for destruction. And even though, the foolish decisions of our leaders seem to lack all rhyme and reason, Satan, “the god of this world” is orchestrating all those bad decisions in such a way that will bring a snare upon the entire world, as he helps usher in the long afore-promised war in the place which is called “Armageddon”.

.

While the media goliaths were busily deceiving the populace into a false sense of security, the sin-sick nation was receiving her just recompense for her past sins.

.

Meanwhile, the apostate churches of the last days, the previous “protestant churches”, were now teaching false doctrines, and bringing in world-loving elements into the church. Yes, the Church was now fast asleep and allowed Satan to steal a march upon them, bringing in false brethren into the churches, greatly compromising the churches and the truth.

.

And while we were all sleeping, Satan was busily setting in place every last detail of his plans to persecute God’s people. But when all was ready, Satan no longer worked in the shadows. No, rather, he began to work boldly through secularists, engaging in seeming madness and overt wickedness, which, of course, gave a rude awakening to God’s sleeping saints! Now, Satan’s antichrist forces began doing unthinkable things, such as perverting and even mutilating young children! The church could not believe such atrocities could ever be committed by society. But Satan’s world-system was now so powerful, there was seemingly little that the Church could do against the abject insanity now occurring in so many corners of the world!

.

“GOOD NEWS FROM A FAR COUNTRY”

Proverbs 25:25

.

But even though the world was seemingly going mad, and sinking into the bottomless pit of sin, God was allowing all these things for the purpose of purifying His saints, and helping them to place all their hope and trust in Him, instead of trusting in Man, and in the institutions of men. And now, realizing that there was nothing left in the world for them to lean upon, God’s abounding grace caused His remnant people to fully trust in the exceeding great and precious promises of His Word. Thus, the saints of God began to shine in such a way that the secularists and apostate churches could not ignore! The promises of God’s Word now became like stepping stones of safety in an upward highway of holiness out of the craziness and abject evil which burned like a fiery furnace all around the world! Now, the church became like highly polished gem-stones, purified as precious gold and silver, and shining even as the Sun! And thus, God’s purpose of the Great Tribulation was fulfilled, and Christ was ready to return for His true Church, and God would bring them to be with Him, in Heaven.

DRAGON’S WAVE OF WATER

.

.

Dragon of Revelation 12 Constellation

.

In Revelation, the Dragon of Revelation 12 is described as having seven heads, ten horns, and seven crowns. However, the Dragon of Revelation 12 Constellation  up in the night sky does not. But God has faithfully created this wave of water, in such a way, as to illustrate this same concept of the seven heads, ten horns, and seven crowns. Because this wave of water is basically comprised of ten stars.

.

The main body of the wave has seven stars (#’s 1 thru 7, in the sketch), and the tip of the crest of the wave has the other three stars, (#’s 8, 9, 10).

.

So in this wave, we see the same 7/10 numbering found in the Revelation description of the heads/horns/crowns of the Dragon.

.

And this gives us a great clue, as to where in the Bible we should look, to find out the riddle as to just what or who do these 7 heads, 10 crowns, and 7 horns represent. Because, the Bible speaks very much about floods and waters as being associated with Satan (the Dragon).

.

Listen again… “When the waves of death compassed me…THE FLOODS OF UNGODLY MEN made me afraid. The sorrows of Hell compassed me about;” 2nd Samuel 22:5.

.

.

.

.

.

ATHEISM AND THE NUMBER “6”

.

And so, without going into a lengthy discussion, let’s just say that of all the 7 heads of Antichrist, the head which most closely aligns with atheism would logically be the 6th head. And why the 6th head? The Book of Revelation, Chapter 13 warns that the Antichrist Beast has a number of 666. And it describes this number as being the “number of a man”. The number “6” in Scripture has to do with “Man”. It is a number which reminds of the 6th Day of Creation; the day that Man was created. Man was created on the 6th day. And so, Mankind is very much connected with the number “6” 

.

And since atheism is the religion which holds Mankind as the supreme ruler of Earth, then the number “6”, being the number of Man, seems to correspond to the 6th head of Antichrist, very well. 

.

Now these ideas may not be “written in stone”, as the saying goes. And nothing hinges upon, nor falls apart, with or without these theories. But sufficed to say, there is strong evidence that these concepts have biblical support. 

.

And so, this 6th star in the Revelation 12 Dragon’s wave of water, would correspond to the 6th head of the Antichrist Beast. And as already said, “waves” in Scripture, represent the many false ideologies which Satan has flooded the world with, throughout time. So that is why this Signs Of Heaven website believes that atheism was the 6th head of Antichrist.

.

.

Except for insurance companies, not many others attribute things to “an act of God”.

.

And certainly, even fewer will attribute anything to “an act of Satan and his evil angels”!

.

Yes, the Devil has pretty much reduced himself to a cartoonish, red-suited, pitchfork-wielding dude with horns, a tail, and a villain-like mustache!

And yet, the Bible describes Satan vastly different…

http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Martin,_John_-_Satan_presiding_at_the_Infernal_Council_-_1824.JPG.

…”Thus saith the Lord GOD;

Thou sealest up the sum, full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty…

every precious stone was thy covering…

the workmanship of thy tabrets

and of thy pipes was prepared in thee

in the day that thou wast created…

Thou wast perfect in thy ways

from the day that thou wast created,

till iniquity was found in thee…

Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty,

thou hast corrupted thy wisdom

by reason of thy brightness:

(Ezekiel 28:12-20, highly condensed for brevity)

Martin, John – Satan presiding at the Infernal Council – 1824 – Wikipedia – public domain

.

As this above passage alludes, Lucifer, now given the office and title of “Satan”, and “The Devil”, this mighty angel was given many qualities and powers beyond what we know!

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

Listen to this next description of Lucifer…

…”Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world,

according to the prince of the power of the air,

the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience: 

Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past

in the lusts of our flesh,

fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind;

and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others.”

Ephesians 2:2, 3 

.

In this above passage, it exposes that Satan, being the Prince of the Power of the Air”, has the ability to communicate his powers and abilities to this fallen world of antichrist rebels!

.

And though the human race would like to take credit for our supposed talents and accomplishments, the true credit should actually go to these unseen agents of evil, working in and through us to do their evil designs!

.

.

.

.

.

.

“…men of high degree are a lie…”

Psalm 62:9

.

http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Shakespeare.jpgBut hey, Satan is more than happy to let humans take the credit!

.

After all, such a mistaken notion only bolsters the ego of many, and causes jealousy in others.

.

https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Charles_Robert_Darwin_by_John_Collier.jpgAnd by seemingly erasing himself out of existence, gives him much more power, and also bolsters the faithlessness of atheists.

.

But if God was to ever nullify Satan’s powers, humanity would be helpless in many areas of their personal and collective endeavors.

.

https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Beethoven.jpgSocieties would quickly deteriorate and crumble.

.

Sports and hobbies would lose their appeal. athletes would lose their agility.

.

Composers and artists and literary “geniuses” would suddenly lose their inspiration!

.

Politicians and government officials would begin making poor decisions (which already they are increasingly doing).

…”Then Amnon hated her [the young woman he thought he was madly in love with];

so that the hatred wherewith he hated her

was greater than the love wherewith he had loved her.

And Amnon said unto her, Arise, be gone!”

.

Yes, even many romances are merely borne of nothing more than pure satanic lust!

7 HEADS, 10 HORNS, & 7 CROWNS OF THE DRAGON

.

“And there appeared another wonder in heaven;

and behold a great red dragon,

having seven heads and ten horns,

and seven crowns upon his heads.”

Revelation 12:3 

.Dragon of Revelation 12 Constellation

In Revelation, the Dragon of Revelation 12 is described as having seven heads, ten horns, and seven crowns.

.

However, the Dragon Constellation up in the night sky does not.

.

But God has faithfully created the wave of water, in such a way, as to illustrate this same concept of the seven heads, ten horns, and seven crowns.

Because this wave of water is basically composed of ten stars.

.

The main body of the wave has seven stars (#‘s, 1 thru 7).

So, we have this 7/10 numbering.

I came not to send peace, but a sword.”

Matthew 10:34

Well, for those who remember that “lovely” song, The Age of Aquarius, the general consensus is, “It must’ve gotten off on the wrong foot! You know! The Age of Aquarius must have gotten off on the wrong foot!” 

.

Well, just listen to a few lines…

“When the moon is in the Seventh House
And Jupiter aligns with Mars,
Then peace will guide the planets
And love will steer the stars”

.

“This is the dawning of the Age of Aquarius,
The Age of Aquarius

.

“Harmony and understanding,
Sympathy and trust abounding…”

.

After this, the song begins to get somewhat obscene!

.

And well, that obscene part of the song has probably been the only prediction that this song has made which has actually become fulfilled!

But as we look at the world today, it would have to be said that “peace and love” may well be guiding the planets, but they don’t seem to be guiding us down here on this planet! 

.

Oh yes, our troubles may indeed settle down for a time, in the coming months.

But hatred, strife, and division will return! They always do!

Yes, once great institutions are now crumbling before our very eyes! It almost reminds one of the verse from Revelation… “and the cities of the nations fell:” Revelation 16:19.

Yes, it seems that the great cities of the world are now rapidly crumbling.

.

And those supposed pillars of society, such as banks, and learning institutes, and governments are growing weak and corrupt! 

.

But the truth is, we Christians have been long ago forewarned about all this!

But he that shall endure unto the end,

the same shall be saved.”

HIGH-TECH DEADENED CONSCIENCES

And isn’t it true that television, music, and Internet are filling our youth with hate and violence and sexual perversions and greed and narcissism beyond our most horrifying imaginations?

.

Yes, many young people in our cities are almost completely losing their moral compass, and have little remorse at the sight of pornographic images, premarital sin, drugs, violence, and even murder!

Yes, this satanic “grooming” of our young people is so great that parents would be utterly shocked if they really understood what their children are feeding their minds with, on a daily basis!

THE FIVE FOOLISH VIRGINS STARS

.

Serpent Constellation

.

A new constellation has been revealed, as of about May 29th, 2014.

.

This constellation appears as a snake.

.

Its body is comprised of stars from the Bootes Constellation, and its jaws are made of the four stars which Babylonians saw as the head of Draco, the Dragon.

.

It also has a small single star for an eye.

.

Now in this constellation is a group of five stars, which will be called “The Five Foolish Virgins Stars”. 

.

These are located on the opposite side of the Glorious Crown of 12 Stars, from the Five Wise Virgins Stars.

.

But one big difference between the two is, that The Five Wise are curved around the Glorious Crown, while the Five Foolish are curved away from it!

.

.

.

.

.

.

Serpent Points To Valley & Destroying Mtn.

.

.

Now another incredible aspect to all this is that this snake/serpent is winding its way around the backside of this Crown.

.

And it is traveling in a direction away from the Crown!

.

And one really phenomenal aspect to this, is that each jaw (composed of two stars each) is pointing in two directions.

.

In other words, if you drew a line parallel with these two sets of stars (the head of Draco), they each go in two directions…

.

…one leading to the Valley of Decision Constellation…

.

…and the other going straight to the Broad Way to Hell Constellation (AKA Pisces).

.

Now if one studies the Valley of Decision Constellation, it is soon discovered that the same concept, of the Wise and Foolish Virgins, is also depicted in this constellation group.

.

The Five Wise Virgins being depicted by the Andromeda Galaxy, and the Five Foolish Virgins, looking like a wheel, rolling its way down into the Dragon Constellation!

.

Now, before this gets too confusing, perhaps we should dissect each aspect individually, to get a basic understanding of just what all this means.

http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Hair_pulling_stress.jpgFor example, have you ever thought back on some stupid thing you said?

.

Or maybe in the heat of anger, you told somebody off?

.

Or perhaps you did something really embarrassing?

.

Or some faithless thing?

.

Or foolish?

.

Or thoughtless?

.

Well, haven’t we all had cringe moments when we were reminded of some past incident which we now regret?

For we wrestle…against…spiritual wickedness in high places”

Ephesians 6:12

.

The Bible reveals the true source of our troubles in this world…

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”

Ephesians 6:12

.

Yes, our struggles are not with “flesh and blood”, but with the unseen forces of the spirit-realm.

.

.

.

.

.

Eph 6:11  Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.

.

So, just why does God allow Satan to attack us in this way? Just why is he allowed to strike us with such fiery darts?

.

For two reasons:

1: God wants us to put our heavenly armor on! And there is nothing like Satan’s fiery attacks to make us realize that we need to be fully armored up!

.

2: God wants us to be fully inoculated against recommitting those same sins. And allowing Satan to remind us of those past deeds (which he’s very happy and willing to do so) will help us in the future as we become tempted to return to those same old sins!

.

.

.

.

.

.

Psa 51:3  For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin is ever before me.

.

Listen to the Psalmist…
Psa 38:5  My wounds stink and are corrupt because of my foolishness.
Psa 38:6  I am troubled; I am bowed down greatly; I go mourning all the day long.

Psa 38:8  I am feeble and sore broken: I have roared by reason of the disquietness of my heart.

Psa 38:17  For I am ready to halt, and my sorrow is continually before me.
Psa 38:18  For I will declare mine iniquity; I will be sorry for my sin.

Psa 38:21  Forsake me not, O LORD: O my God, be not far from me.
Psa 38:22  Make haste to help me, O Lord my salvation.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

So, let’s be wise as serpents but harmless as doves in our knowledge of truth, amidst this world of lies.

.

And as we extinguish the enemy’s fiery darts, with our shield of faith, let’s remember that those cringe moments are allowed by God to inoculate us against repeating our regrettable decisions of the past!

.

.

.

.

forgetting those things which are behind,

.

Php_3:13  Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before,

Psa 73:14  For all the day long have I been plagued, and chastened every morning.

Eze_7:16  But they that escape of them shall escape, and shall be on the mountains like doves of the valleys, all of them mourning, every one for his iniquity.

Eze 6:9  And they that escape of you shall remember me among the nations whither they shall be carried captives, because I am broken with their whorish heart, which hath departed from me, and with their eyes, which go a whoring after their idols: and they shall lothe themselves for the evils which they have committed in all their abominations.

Ephesians 6:13 

.

This above verse from Ephesians reveals that the reason God’s people are to armor up, is because we are now in “the evil day”.

.

Whether we like it or not, this present earth is a spiritual warzone! And we have been elected to become soldiers in God’s Army!

“For we wrestle not against flesh and blood”

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Atheist_sign_Wisconsin_State_Capitol.png.

And from decades of indoctrination into the world’s antichrist philosophies and ideologies, we commonly attribute the problems and difficulties in the world to natural causes!

.

In other words, we greatly ignore such revelations from Scripture as Ephesians 6:12, in which God reveals to us…

“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.”

.

This above verse reveals that humans are not the problem. But rather, the unseen spiritually dark underworld is the cause of mankind’s troubles!

But as already quoted, Ephesians 6:12 reveals the true cause…

“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.”

TODAY’S HEAVENLY SIGN

 

.

.

.

FIRST FIND ORION & 7 STARS

.Orion Constellation

The very first step in finding these many constellations, should be to find the two main constellations: Orion, and the 7 Stars (aka, The Big Dipper).

.

These two constellations represent Christ (Orion), and His Chur7 stars as Crossch (7 Stars).

.

And just as these are the easiest constellations to find, so too, the first place to begin studying the Bible is the Four Gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke, John).

.

These four books present Christ and His Church, when He walked the earth, just as Orion and the 7 Stars represent Christ and His Church, as seen up in the heavens.

.

Then, once you are comfortable finding these two constellations, you can begin to locate the next closest constellations, and so on.

CUTTLEFISH: THE ULTIMATE IMPOSTORS!

.

One of the most amazing creatures ever created is the Cuttlefish! 

.

The reason why this creature is so incredible, is that it can just glance at its environment and instantly change its body to imitate that environment!

.

As a matter of fact, whatever the Cuttlefish passes over, it instantly begins to change into a similar color and shape, of that undersea object!

CUTTLEFISH: SYMBOL OF SATAN

.

Well, God has created this little predator to give us further insight into the inner working of the kingdom of Satan.

(As this little 26 second video below shows, the Cuttlefish has the ability to paralyze his potential victims, by using his hypnotizing strobe-light effect! Amazing!)

.

Certainly Satan and his unseen armies love to make themselves invisible!

That way, they can work their misery and woe upon this unsuspecting world, without its inhabitants becoming alarmed causing us to rebel against Satan’s kingdom, as we flee to God!

.

And isn’t true that the pleasures and riches of this world, like the cuttlefish’s strobe-hypnotizer, have a mesmerizing effect upon us, just like this above little video reveals?

.

“THE KISSES OF AN ENEMY ARE DECEITFUL!”http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:GiantCuttlefish6.jpg

Proverbs 27:6

.

Truly it can be said, we live in a “Cuttlefish World”.

.

Yes, like that incredible impostor, this world was changed into a seemingly benign and beneficent society to a great degree.

.

Oh yes, there has always been many underlying dangers and evils lurking out there!

“And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.

Revelation 13:11

.https://theheavensdeclare.net/television-the-image-that-speaks/

This second Beast of Revelation 13 speaks of this current-day phenomenon in which the media goliaths have become totally satanic, foisting the most hideous and evil antichrist ideologies upon the world. 

.                                                       

From totalitarianism to antichrist-atheism…

…to immorality…

…to murder of the unborn…

…to persecution/murder of Jews/Christians/moralists (conservatives)…

…to sodomy and child-mutilation…

…to racial hatred…

…to bullying in various forms, etc….

…the media has become the mouthpiece of Satan.

.

Yes, the media has devolved so greatly into a snake-pit of lies, corruption, hypocrisy, cover-ups and the like, to the degree that, for the most part, they seem to have lost the sense of honor, decency, or honesty.

.

.

.

.

.

https://theheavensdeclare.net/television-the-image-that-speaks/“The wicked walk on every side, when the vilest men are exalted”

Psalm 12:8

.

If you haven’t noticed, there has been a rise of political tyrants in the western nations.

.

Yes, and along those same lines, there has also been a rise in those who desire to use the high-tech to control the thoughts and actions of the general populace.

“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”

Ephesians 6:12 

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Martin,_John_-_Satan_presiding_at_the_Infernal_Council_-_1824.JPG.

Now, of course, as Bible-believing Christians, we are not ignorant of the fact that the spirit of antichrist is the true source of all this tyrannical uprising!

.

And this evil, ruling spirit is systematically eliminating our freedoms, day-by-day.

.

But we must not be deceived into believing that all this moral devolution is merely happenstance.

.

No, the Internet and the devices which employ this new power of the airwaves is to become Satan’s ultimate Judgment Day weaponry, holding the supreme position in Satan’s multi-arsenal against humanity, and ultimately against God’s sheepfold!

The Bible foretells of the day in which…

“no man might buy or sell,

saving him which has the mark, or name, or the number of his name…

six-hundred-threescore-and-six”

Revelation 13

.

And as we all know, present-day high-tech society has the capability of allowing or preventing each individual from buying or selling.

Revelation 13:17, 18

.

And Satan is working around the clock to add even more technology to control every aspect of life, individually tailored and custom-fit for each and every, man, woman, and child!

.

And while most will be able to move freely about, the few who refuse to become indoctrinated into this antichrist world-system will find themselves incapable of even the smallest conveniences.

“And 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 

Fiery Furnace by Gustave Dore' courtesy of adelaide.edu.au.

So, just what is the solution to all this?

.

Well, just as the three Hebrew boys were cast alive into the King of Babylon’s fiery furnace, so too will God’s faithful ones be cut off and eventually killed for refusing to bow down to the true King of Babylon, Lucifer.

(Of course, by bowing down to this antichrist world-system, the world is bowing down to Satan, whether they know it or not!)

“Here Comes the Thought Police!”

.

Part 3

“The Sound of One Hand Clapping”

To read Part 1, click here…August 11 (“The Thought Police Have Finally Arrived!”)

.

.

.

.

.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:OneHandClapping.jpgMany political commentators have borrowed this phrase, “the sound of one hand clapping”. 

.

And they began using it as a metaphor to describe totalitarian governments in which there is no opposition party to challenge the oppressive authoritarianism of the various dictatorships in this lost world.

.

“(The world) Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools”

Romans 1:22

.

https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Defund_the_police.jpgMost everyone remembers when politicians trumpeted the call to “Defund the police! Defund the police!”

.

And so, many cities began a campaign to do just that! “After all”, they said, “people just need a helping hand! And police are so evil!”

Anarchy…”and the cities of the nations fell…”

Revelation 16:19

.

https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Columbus_BLM_Protest_IMG_3001_(49958024753).jpg

Well, as you probably already know, the results of defunding and defaming the police has brought disastrous results!

.

Those same cities have become increasingly lawless and increasingly unresponsive to crime!

.

But the question which many are scratching their heads over, is this: “Why on earth could any half-intelligent person possibly believe that defunding the police could somehow be a good thing?!”

“…giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;”

1st Timothy 4:1, 2

.

Well, let’s not be simple-minded and naive!

.

The truth is, these same people who called so loudly to defund the police, are actually planning to bring society under total authoritarian control!

.

As a matter of fact, they are working feverishly right now to turn this once-great nation into a giant police-state!

.

And if it weren’t for the push-back from freedom-loving dissidents, we’d already be under totalitarian control!

.

So, let’s all say, “we won’t get fooled again”, as one songster sang!

.

Yes, the sad fact is, that society is now able to control every aspect of our lives! And their abilities are increasing daily!

George Orwell’s “1984”

.

In George Orwell’s little book, 1984, he presented a world in which the rulers had succeeded in complete totalitarian control over the masses.

.

And there were even “Thought Police” to control the people’s thoughts.

THE THOUGHT POLICE HAVE FINALLY ARRIVED!

.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:1984first.jpgWell, about the only thing that Orwell had miscalculated in this predictive novel was the date for this super-society to come into reality. He was about 50 or so, years off!

.

But that day is finally arriving in which society can (and will) be brought under the control of dictatorial rulers! Orwell’s book should have been titled “2024”!

.

https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Is_this_tomorrow.jpgYes, by means of the modern media, “Big Brother” (aka Satan) can now completely control the masses.

.

And now, these high-tech devices are beginning to blacklist all those who do not hold to the maxims which our society now approves and condones.

THE BIBLE FORETOLD OF THIS DAY!

http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:DDLI.png

.

It’s truly frightening to see all this totalitarianism being ratcheted up so swiftly.

.

But the Bible foretold that this day would finally arrive…

“And that no man might buy or sell,

save he that had the mark,

or the name of the beast,

or the number of his name.”

Revelation 13:17

.

Now this verse by itself may not give us enough understanding into the current-day phenomenon of censoring.

.

.

.

.

.

“Buy the truth, and sell it not!”

.

But this next verse complements the previous verse found in Revelation 13:17.

http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:DDLI.png.

This complementary verse is found in Proverbs 23:23…“Buy the truth, and sell it not; also wisdom, and instruction, and understanding.”

.

Now from this and other similar verses, it is revealed that “buying and selling” actually has to do with preaching the Gospel of Jesus.

.

And so, the Bible prophesied that the day would come when the true and unvarnished Word of God would be cut off…“And that no man might buy or sell.”

But the Good News in all this coming totalitarianism, is that God’s Word is still available to read!

.

And most everyone is familiar with this next verse…“And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” John 8:32

.

Yes, the continuing search for knowledge of the Bible and the Bible’s Jesus will make us free indeed!

LOCATING THIS CONSTELLATION…

.

This “Golden Altar” Constellation is only seen in winter through spring, in mid-sky. 

.

It is to the south of the “Fleeing Woman Constellation” (AKA Ursa Major or The Big Dipper).

.

The “Fleeing Woman of Revelation 12” Constellation is in the northeastern sky in this sketch.

.

You would be facing east and looking very high up almost to mid-sky to see this constellation group this way.

.

The altar is farther south but still in the eastern sky..

.

This altar itself is commonly known as Leo Major“, with the smoke rising beingLeo Minor“.

Have you ever been on a jury?

.

Well, if you have, then perhaps you have discovered how convincing it is, to hear just one side of the case.

.

In other words, when you only hear one side of the story, it almost seems like an open-and-shut case, doesn’t it?

.

But then comes the hour when the defense begins their presentation!

.

Then comes the moment when there begins to be a balance struck!

.

Yes, just like this photo with Lady Justice holding her scales, representing the weight of evidence from both sides, tipping the scales one way or the other.

SOME DEEPER TRUTHS NOT SO CLEAR

.

Well, God has written much of the Bible in the very same way!

.

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/8f/Optic_stub.svg/200px-Optic_stub.svg.png

Oh no, the truths concerning the basic plan of Salvation are clear enough, so that none need stumble.

.

But other truths, such as the exact nature of Hell have not been made so clear. And God has purposely done this.

.

Yes, God has given some passages which seem to support this church-doctrine called “Eternal Torment”.

.

And yet many other passages seem to support the doctrine which the Bible often refers to as “sleep”.

.

And so, in order to properly understand the true nature of Hell, a serious Bible student must examine all the related passages and attempt to be “rightly dividing the Word of Truth”.

.

.

SEEMINGLY OPPOSING VERSES

.

http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:USMC-06831.jpgThe next step is to realize that this question regarding the nature of Hell is complicated, because God has given many seemingly opposing scriptures about the nature of Hell.

.

And it is only when we are willing to let go of our cherished traditional understanding and begin to explore all these different passages in the Bible, that we now begin to see the truth!

.

But of course, when you attend a Bible study on the nature of Hell, you will mostly notice an overwhelming bias in what is being taught, omitting verses which contradict “Eternal Torment”.

.

So, here is the crux of the problem!

.

Do Bible teachers love their cherished church traditions more than they love truth?

.

Well, one thing is for sure: and as already revealed in this devotional, the love of truth is the gift of God.

KEEP DOCTRINE PURE

http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Holy_bible.jpg

And so, this important step in discovering the true nature of Hell, can be concisely said to be the gathering of all related Bible passages, and rejecting all non-biblical terminology which gives a false balance to the scales of truth!

.

Listen… “Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you,

neither shall ye diminish ought from it,

that ye may keep the commandments of the LORD your God

which I command you.”

WOMAN FLEEING TO NARROW GATE

.

LOCATION

.

 

.

And at this point it is apparent that the Fleeing Woman of Revelation 12 Constellation is veering toward the two bright stars, known as Castor and Pollux (sketch to left).

.

But the Wide Gate Stars are composed of the two brightest stars of the Auriga Constellation, known as the star, Capella, and the star, Menkalinan.

.

The two stars, Castor and Pollux, make up the concept of the Orion’s Narrow Gate Stars.

Revelation 12 Woman & Orion's Gate & Wide Gate.

This can even be observed into June in the western sky (for a short time just after dark).

.

While a dark night is best for seeing the Woman Constellation, the 4 stars which comprise the Narrow Gate/Wide Gate Stars can be seen even under mediocre conditions.

.

It begins with the Fleeing Woman of Revelation 12 Constellation (AKA Ursa Major) going towards these two doors.

.

This sketch shows, the two doors are each composed of two bright stars.

.

The two bright stars that comprise the Narrow Gate are the two brightest stars of the Orion the Reaper’s sickle.

.

The two stars that comprise the ‘Wide Gate’ Stars are the two brightest stars of the wave of water that comes out of the Dragon Constellation’s mouth (for explanation of “Wave of Water”, just click here).

.

The stars that make up the ‘Narrow Gate’ are about half the width of the Wide Gate (see sketch below left).

The Heart,

.

Part 5:

“The Human Heart: Wonderful? or Woefully Wicked?”

To read Part 1, click here… April 20th (The Heart: Treasure Chest of the Mind!)

.

.

.

.

.

.

“The heart is deceitful above all things,

and desperately wicked:

who can know it?

I the LORD search the heart,

I try the reins,

even to give every man according to his ways,

and according to the fruit of his doings.”

Jeremiah 17:9

https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Erulo_Eroli_-_Der_Weihnachtsengel.jpgA few days ago, a certain individual on the Internet, contributed his belief that humans are basically good.

.

And he cited a few examples of mankind’s goodness.

“For the word of God…is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart”

Hebrews 4:12

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Heart_oblique_external.jpg.

Now, before going any further, let’s get rid of this notion that the human heart is the blood pump.

.

Yes, the world has named the human blood pump, “the heart”.

.

And yet, the Bible reveals the heart to be the deep thoughts of the mind: the treasure chest of the mind, with its loves and hates and deepest thoughts, beliefs, and intents.

WOEFULLY WICKED?

.

https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:GUSTAVOEGATOTVAngelXDevil.jpgActually, the Bible explicitly describes the human heart in the following way…

…”The heart is deceitful above all things,

and desperately wicked:

who can know it?”

Jeremiah 17:9

.

Well, obviously, that man on the Internet has never considered this above verse from Jeremiah (and probably wouldn’t even want to!).

.

And so, even back in Jeremiah’s day, God was revealing the condition of human mind…“the heart is…deceitful…and desperately wicked”.

No, even the beloved Apostle, John, has described this present world as “And we know that we are of God, and the whole world lieth in wickedness.” 1st John 5:19

“…there is none that doeth good, no, not one.”

.

And what about the great Apostle Paul’s summation…

…”As it is written,

There is none righteous, no, not one:

There is none that understandeth,

there is none that seeketh after God.

They are all gone out of the way,

they are together become unprofitable;

there is none that doeth good,

no, not one.”

Romans 3:10-12

.

Without Christ abiding in our hearts, we are all wicked to the core…even the great Apostle, Paul…Atticus Finch…and me and you too!

“Let favour be shewed to the wicked, yet will he not learn righteousness”

Right at this time in history, secularists have been largely in control of western societies.

.

And they have been enacting laws which are causing a whole lot of trouble, especially in the United States.

.

Their thinking has been that if society just extends some sort of gracious liberty to individuals with bad behavior…

.

…the result is that “allowing them to do as they please, will cause them to see their erroneous behavior and correct themselves, falling in line with socially-acceptable standards of conduct”.

.

And such thinking has pretty much devastated a number of large cities, turning them into “dystopian hellscapes”.

“A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you”

Ezekiel 36:26

.

The very Good News is that we don’t have to go through this short life being plagued by all sorts of debased, vile, hateful, lustful, jealous, suspicious, fearful, or revengeful thoughts!

.

Listen to God…

https://theheavensdeclare.net/woman-the-altar-the-most-holy-place/…”A new heart also will I give you,

and a new spirit will I put within you:

and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh,

and I will give you an heart of flesh.

And I will put my spirit within you,

and cause you to walk in my statutes,

and ye shall keep my judgments, and do them.”

Ezekiel 36:26, 27

.

Here is the remedy for our innate wickedness: a brand-new heart! And a new Spirit!

.

.

.

.

.

.

“Get thee behind me, Satan”

.

Oh yes, the Tempter may come to us oft-times with unwholesome thoughts.

.

But if Holy Spirit of Christ is dwelling in us, we can say along with Him…

“Get thee behind me, Satan:http://thebiblerevival.com/

thou art an offence unto me:

for thou savourest not the things that be of God,

but those that be of men.”

Matthew 16:23

THE SWINE: “LUST OF THE FLESH”

.

https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Once_in_a_Blue_Moon_(40034339832).jpg“For all that is in the world,

the lust of the flesh,

the lust of the eyes,

and the pride of life,

is not of the Father,

but is of the world.”

1st John 2:16

.

This article will introduce this third beast-like face, inscribed in the Moon: a swine.

.

And it will be shown that the three beast-like faces in the Moon, represent the concept taught in the above verse concerning “the lust of the flesh…the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life”.

.

It has become apparent that the second face in the Moon, besides appearing as a wolf-like beast, also appears as a Swine.

.

Let’s explore this concept, for a moment.

.

First of all, when a person sees the second face up in the sky, it’s arguable whether or not it looks like a swine.

.

But it must be conceded that the photos do indeed make it appear as if this character has a “sawed-off” snout like a swine.

.

And of course, a swine is spoken of quite frequently in Scripture.

The Straw-Man!

Part 10:

“Radio’s Straw-Man Warriors”

To read Part 1, go here…March 5th (The Straw-Man, Part 1)

.

.

.

.

“straw man”

[ˈstrô ˌman, ˈsträ ˌman]

NOUN

 An intentionally misrepresented proposition that is set up because it is easier to defeat than an opponent’s real argument:

.

.

.

There is a certain radio talk show in which the host will create “Straw-Man” propositions in order to prove his own pet church-doctrines.

.

Here is a short list of various “Straw-Man” scenarios heard on this station:

.

If you deny the (non-biblical) name, “The Rapture”, then you deny that Jesus’ will return altogether.

.

If you deny the Pretribulation Rapture, then you must be a “Preterist”!

.

If you believe that God alone chooses His Elect ones, then you must a “Calvinist”!

.

If you believe that Christians are the true “Israel of God”, then you must be one of those abominable “Replacement Theology heretics”.

He creates a derogatory title, “Replacement Theology heretics”…

…and then hangs that title around the necks of all those who refuse to conform to his authoritarian oppression!

“A TABLE IN THE WILDERNESS?”

Psalm 78:19

Constellation- Woman of Revelation 12 flees to the mountains Mark 13:14

.

And God has made all necessary provisions for the spiritual needs and heavenly blessings for those who do escape from Babylon…

.

…as they flee to the spiritual mountainous strongholds of God…

…”And there shall be upon every high mountain,

and upon every high hill,

rivers and streams of waters

in the day of the great slaughter,

when the towers fall.”

Isaiah 30:25.

.

Yes, there are abundant rivers and streams of living waters flowing upon those high mountains and hills!

.

And God’s blessings have finally been taken away and are now transferred to the heavenly places of refuge, where God’s people must flee!

“THOU ART MY HIDING PLACE!”

Psalm 32:7, 119:14 & Isaiah 32:2

Listen…“For in the time of trouble

He shall hide me in His pavilion:

in the secret of His tabernacle shall He hide me;

He shall set me up upon a Rock.”

Psalm 27:5

.

This verse reveals just where we must flee to in this current, ever-increasing time of trouble!

.

And it is here in this our hiding place that we may sing the following, “songs of deliverance”…

…”And now shall mine head be lifted up

above mine enemies round about me:

therefore will I offer in His tabernacle sacrifices of joy;

I will sing,

yea, I will sing praises unto the LORD.”

Psalm 27:6

REVELATION 12 WOMAN CONSTELLATION

.

WOMAN ROTATES THROUGH THE SEASONS…

star-chart ursa major summerr

.

This page is about the Big Dipper, also called the Great Bear constellation (Ursa Major ).

.

However, the ancient pagan cultures did not see this constellation as God intended it to be seen.

.

It is actually a headless woman in childbirth.  

.

This is seen in springtime in the northern skies. 

.

star-chart ursa major

.

But as the seasons progress, this travailing woman flips upside down…

.

…now appearing as a woman with upraised arms like eagle wings who is running into the wilderness, westward (eventually flying, as shown in sketch on right).

.

The single star representing her birth-child (Christ) now becomes her head (“Christ is the head of the church.” Ephesians 5:23

.

The 7 Stars (Big Dipper) is easy to see with its very bright 7 stars.

.

But the Revelation 12 Woman (Ursa Major) must be seen on a dark starry night, away from city lights. 

.

These are star charts from Wikipedia, with sketches of the Woman added.

Daily Devotional, Year 4 – September 1 (The Time of Jacob’s Trouble, Part 13: “The Giant, ‘Despair'”)

Daily Devotional, Year 4 – September 1

.

.

.

.

The Time of Jacob’s Trouble,

.

Part 13:

“The Giant, ‘Despair'”

To read Part 1, click here…July 13th (Jacob’s Trouble, Part 1: Alone With God)

.

In John Bunyan’s incredible, ground-breaking tale, “Pilgrim’s Progress”, The lead character, “Christian” found himself in the “Doubting Castle” of the Giant, “Despair”.

 

.

And the Giant Despair’s wife came along and told Christian to take a gun and commit suicide.

.

Well, this little book, Pilgrim’s Progress is a really relevant book for Christians today.

.

There are so many temptations which come at us, causing us to doubt God and His love and protection.

.

And the Devil will use these moments to come to us and flood us with all sorts of discouragements.

.

But we need not despair! We just need to redirect our minds back to Heavenly thoughts and prayer. And with all the Bible’s “exceeding great and precious promises”, we can take hold of them as “life preservers” for our soul’s salvation!

.

For instance…”Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted in me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him for the help of his countenance.” Psalm 42:5, 11 & 43:5

.

So, whenever we are tempted to “throw in the towel”, we simply need to hold on fast to “the hem of His Garment”, and not let go until Satan flees and our troubled heart is free once again!

.

.

.

Below are a few of those exceeding great and precious promises we can cling to in our time of great need!

.

as_4:7  Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

1Pe_1:7  That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ:

2Pe_1:4  Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.

Isaiah 26:3…“Thou (God) wilt keep him in perfect peace who mind is stayed upon Thee, because he trusts in Thee!”

“Come unto Me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you, and learn of Me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For My yoke is easy, and My burden is light.” Matthew 11:28-30

Rom_8:28  And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

“That the trial of your faith,being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and gloryat the appearing of Jesus Christ:”1st Peter 1:7

“For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be comparedGoldkey logo removed - wikipedia - public domain with the glory which shall be revealed in us. For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God. For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of Him who hath subjected the same in hope,” Romans 8:18-20

“…our light affliction, which is but for a moment, works for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory; While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.” 2nd Corinthians 4:17, 18.

“exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the Power that worketh in us,” Ephesians 3:20

Jos_1:9  Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the LORD thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest.

1Pe 5:7  Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.
1Pe 5:8  Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:
1Pe 5:9  Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.

Php 4:8  Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.
Php 4:9  Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you.

Psa_34:19  Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the LORD delivereth him out of them all.

VALLEY OF DECISION CONSTELLATION

.

SO WHERE ARE THE “MULTITUDES”?…

.

http://www.flickr.com/photos/8269775@N05

.

So where are the multitudes in this constellation?

.

Well, if you look at this sketch to the right, carefully, you will see an ENTIRE GALAXY making a slow trek up the steep slope toward the summit of one of the mountains.

.

It is the mountain which is to the north in this sketch.

.

This is the galaxy commonly called Andromeda.

.

It is estimated to have possibly a trillion stars!

.

Is a trillion stars a big enough multitude? Oh yes! Listen to God talking to Abraham…

.

“And He (God) brought him (Abraham) forth abroad, and said, Look now toward heaven, and tell the stars, if thou be able to number them: and He said unto him, So shall thy seed be.” Genesis 15:5 

Valley of Decision Constellation (1st two mounts)

.

But this mountain in which this multitude of stars is climbing represents a very awesome and wonderful Bible concept.

.

This mountain in Scripture is known as Mount Zion.

.

And it is also known as the Mount of Blessing.

.

It represents that spiritual mountain which Believers must climb, in order to reach the City of God. 

.

Listen to Scripture… “But ye are come unto mount Zion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem…To the…church of the firstborn, which are written in heaven…” Hebrews 12:22, 23.

.

Well it sure seems that this verse is correct when it says the words… “which are written in heaven”!

.

Because this galaxy in this constellation group is a wonderful picture of the Church as it makes it trek to the summit of this starry mountain; a picture of God’s Church…His faithful people…written in the heavens.

.

These are the Signs of Heaven, promised long ago to be revealed before that “great and terrible Day of the Lord”
