Part 5: 

“Cannibalizing Our Children!?”

“The hands of the pitiful women have sodden their own children:

they were their meat in the destruction of the daughter of My people.”

Lamentations 4:10

.

Are you old enough to remember that startling movie, “Dawn of the Dead”?

.

Being one of the first of its kind, it had a stunning effect on movie-goers. That is, to see dead people slowly sleep-walking through a giant shopping mall, surrealistically going through the motions of shopping, while silky violin strains of “elevator music” echoed through the post-apocalyptic shopping center, was a giant shock to movie audiences back in those days!

NO MORE ROOM IN HELL!

.

Now the premise of that movie was that an apocalyptic holocaust had killed off the bulk of Mankind, leaving no more room in Hell. And this is loosely based on Jeremiah’s prophecy…

“Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the LORD,

that it shall no more be called Tophet,

nor the valley of the son of Hinnom,

but the valley of slaughter:

for they shall bury in Tophet,

till there be no place.”

Jeremiah 7:32

.

Thus the world was now mostly populated by these half-dead zombies, who continually sought to cannibalize the few surviving humans left on earth! And that infamous shopping mall became the eerie backdrop for this nail-biting scenario!

BIBLE FORETELLS OF CANNIBALISM

.

Well, this movie is closer to truth than most people would care to even consider.

.

But listen to what the Bible says about the last days…“The hands of the pitiful women have sodden their own children: they were their meat in the destruction of the daughter of My people.” Lamentations 4:10

.

Make no mistake! Cannibalism is now being somewhat encouraged by at least several leading evolutionists and perhaps others as well.

SOYLENT GREEN NEW MEAL!?

.

Yes, there are already a growing number of voices now calling for humanity to consider the benefits of human cannibalism to help “save the planet”. One Swedish scientist and a leading proponent of Evolution are both asking us to muse on the idea of cannibalism as a way of population control. Well, this topic is still being treated mockingly by the press.

.

But don’t be surprised if you hear more of this being tossed about in the news!

.

And don’t be startled if we begin to hear of more and more news stories about incidents in which cannibalism is actually occurring!

GOD’S PEOPLE CANNIBALIZING THEIR CHILDREN

.

But this above verse is actually speaking of God’s own professed people…“they were their meat in the destruction of the daughter of My people.” Lamentations 4:10

.

Here is perhaps one of the scariest verses in the entire Bible! And this just may find a literal fulfillment in these last days, as God’s Spirit is being, “taken out of the way”! 2nd Thessalonians 2:7

.

SPIRITUAL CANNIBALIZING?

.

But, since the Bible is a spiritual book, there likewise is a spiritual application that also must be addressed. Yes, right this very moment, many Christian parents are cannibalizing their very own children!

.

“How could this be!?”, we exclaim.

.

Well, just listen to this…“Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge? who eat up My people as they eat bread, and call not upon the LORD.” Psalm 14:4

.

Well, this can’t be speaking of God’s people cannibalizing! This is speaking of non-Christians eating God’s people “as they eat bread”.

.

Well, maybe “Yes”, or maybe “No”.

.

But the fact is, when parents allow their children to sit in front of the TV, they are allowing Satan to groom their children for a future of secularism, atheism, sexualizing, violence, and a host of similar satanic behaviors. This reminds us of 1st Peter 5:8…“Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour”

.

Yes, many Christian parents allow Satan, as he works through the secular world, to spiritually devour their children via this antichrist world-system with all its various means of sinful seduction with the intent of destruction of their precious souls!

.

.

.

.

.

THE ALTARS OF SELFISH DESIRES

.

Listen to Jeremiah 7:31…“And they have built the high places of Tophet,

which is in the valley of the son of Hinnom,

to burn their sons and their daughters in the fire;

which I commanded them not, neither came it into my heart.”

.

Well, this above verse may or may not be speaking of cannibalism. At least not directly. But it is definitely speaking of murder: spiritual murder being committed by God’s own professed people of their very own children!

.

So either way, God’s people were cannibalizing as well as sacrificing their children upon the altars of their own selfish desires.

THE FATHER: PRIEST OF THE HOME!

.

And this heinous crime of spiritual murder (and spiritual cannibalizing) is exactly what is going on today.

.

Parents are so often absorbed in their ambitious pursuits, that they have little time nor the necessary energy to take their children by the hand and lead them in the morning and evening worship.

.

The father is often so wrapped up in his career that he has lost all Spirit-filled desire to be the holy priest of the home.

“And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord”

Ephesians 6:4  

.

One very powerful means of counteracting the evil which is prevalent in the world is to make sure we live with our family in such a way as to show them that Heaven is a place of joy!

.

And the parents need to show much heavenly love for their children. Whether engaging them in their little games and sports, or hugging them often, or just making life in the home nice and breezy.

.

This is an integral part of what it means to “bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord”

.

The Christian parents must, kindly, patiently, and gently, guide your children through their childhood in such a way which will cause them to desire, yes, even yearn, to walk side-by-side with you along the joy-filled highways and byways of eternity!

“Blow the trumpet in Zion, sanctify a fast!”

.

Well, the Good News is, that ‘today is the first day of the rest of our life’, as the old saying goes, And we can still repent and return to the Lord with all our heart, soul, strength and mind!

.

And who knows if God might “return and repent, and leave a blessing behind him; even a meat offering and a drink offering unto the LORD your God? Blow the trumpet in Zion, sanctify a fast, call a solemn assembly…” Joel 2:14, 15

GLORIOUS CROWN CONSTELLATION…

.

& THE REVELATION 12 WOMAN

(Click here to read more!)

.

This Glorious Crown Constellation looks like a wreath at first glance. It has 7 stars, plus another star in the middle. This Glorious Crown Constellation is commonly referred to as the Corona Borealis Constellation. This wreath reminds us of the victory wreath given to athletes who won races in the ancient cultures. This was spoken of by Paul as he compared those ancient races to the race that Christians must run… “Know you all not, that they which run in a race run all, but one receives the prize? So run, that you all may obtain.” 1st Corinthians 9:24 (see also Hebrews 12:1)

“A CROWN OF 12 STARS UPON HER HEAD” …

.

But upon a closer examination if you have access to a very dark sky out in the country; if you watch this wreath, you will eventually see 5 more very faint stars, making a total of 12 stars, plus that single star in the middle. This wreath now becomes a crown of 12 stars. This goes along with Revelation 12, which tells of a crown of 12 stars upon the head of the Virtuous Woman of Revelation 12.

.

… “And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman…and upon her head a crown of twelve stars:” Rev. 12:1.

.

But this crown is not yet upon the head of the Virtuous Woman of Revelation 12 Constellation (also known as Ursa Major). It is just above her head, as if she has yet to attain it. Of course, the 13th star in the middle would represent Christ (Who is our true Crown of our rejoicing). Ok, so we have a picture of Christ and His twelve tribes of Israel. But also we have a picture of Christ and His twelve apostles, which is a picture of His Church. So this heavenly crown is a multi-faceted concept.
