The Whisperer: “No Gossips In Heaven!”
.
.
.
.
.
Do you know who the very first gossip was?

Well, the very first instance of gossiping, occurred in the Garden of Eden, when that wily old
serpent, Satan, whispered into Eve’s ear… “And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof (of the forbidden fruit), then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.” Genesis 3:4, 5
.
Yes, the Devil was already spreading vicious lies about the Lord, right there in the Garden!
.
And of course, Eve with eager ears, listened to that vicious gossip, and acted upon it, and the rest is history!

WHO IS OUR ROLE-MODEL?
.
Now, knowing this story, you would think that Christians would be the last ones to be spreading vicious gossip! You would think that Satan, that Whisperer of old, would be the last person that Christians would want to imitate, and use as a role-model!
.
But the Bible has much to say about whisperers… “An ungodly man digs up evil: and in his lips there is as a burning fire…and a whisperer separates chief friends.” Proverbs 16:27, 28
.
Yes, a whisperer separates chief friends. And Satan separated the entire human race from God, by that one single act of vicious and untrue gossip!
.
.
.
.
.
ROASTING OTHERS IN THE FIRES of GOSSIP!
.
But sad to say, much of the Christian community imitates their father, the Devil, by engaging in similar vicious gossip! Yes, many a church-goer has been busily roasting family members, neighbors, and even fellow church brethren in the fiery flames of slanderous back-stabbing gossip!
.
And God is not silent about these matters!
.
Listen… “God gave them over to a reprobate mind…Being filled with all unrighteousness…whisperers…unmerciful: Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but (also) have pleasure in them that do them.” Romans 1:28, 29, 31, 32 (condensed)
.
And so, here it states that those who joyfully engage in being a whisperer, are worthy of death! And since this class is spoken of as, “knowing the Judgment of God”, this above passage must be speaking of gossiping church-goers, as being, “worthy of death”!
.

.
MODERN-DAY CANNIBALISM
.
But the fact is, many “Christian” dinner parties have been served, with the main dish being some pastor, deacon, or fellow parishioner!
.
Yes, and if we really think about it, vicious gossip is actually akin to cannibalism!
.
Listen… “Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge? who eat up my people as they eat bread, and call not upon the LORD.” Proverbs 14:4
.
We look upon pictures of those barbaric heathens in other lands, who roasted humans as a rare culinary delicacy! And yet, here it is revealed that God looks upon those who viciously gossip as being mere savage-like cannibals, “who eat up My people as they eat bread”!

AN ANTICHRIST WORLD!
.
“A talebearer reveals secrets: but he that is of a faithful spirit conceals the matter.” Proverbs 11:13
.
You see, this above proverb is revealing a great secret! Notice that it says… “But he that is of a faithful spirit”!
.
That’s right, those who are filled with that faithful Spirit of Holiness, will not engage in tale-bearing!
.
“Tale-bearing” (gossip) is borne of, “another spirit”: the spirit of the world: the spirit of Antichrist!

THE SPIRIT OF THE WORLD IS THE SPIRIT OF ANTICHRIST
.
That’s right! “Tale-bearing” (gossip) is borne of the spirit of Antichrist!
.
Listen again… “They (Antichrists) are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them.” 1st John 4:5
.
The sad fact is, there are many faithful church-goers who are still under the power of, “the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now works in the children of disobedience”…”and this is that [spirit] of Antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.” Ephesians 2:2 & 1st John 4:3
.
As these above two passages reveal, all those who of a worldly spirit are indwelt by the spirit of Antichrist, i.e., the Devil and his evil angels!

SATAN STEALS OUR PERFECT PEACE
.
One great problem with listening to Satan’s whisperings, is that this is how this “Accuser of the Brethren” gains access into our hearts and minds. And once we allow him access, he often begins to torment us with all sorts of “evil surmisings” about the motives of others. (1st 
Timothy 6:4)
.
We must remember the Wise Man’s advice…“Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life. Put away from thee a froward mouth, and perverse lips put far from thee. Let thine eyes look right on, and let thine eyelids look straight before thee. Ponder the path of thy feet, and let all thy ways be established. Turn not to the right hand nor to the left: remove thy foot from evil.” Proverbs 4:24-27
.
Yes, to guard the avenues to the soul, not allowing Satan any access, is our first and foremost duty!
.
.
.
.
.
.
GOOD NEWS!
.
Now, in the midst of all this negativity, there is found some Good News! Yes, those of us who have been guilty of spreading malicious gossip, still have time to repent! And just like old Ebenezer Scrooge, we all need to awaken from our death-slumber, and begin to joyfully repair the damage we have done!
.
Oh no, we cannot take back the slanders and half-truths we have spread like poison into the burning ears of our hearers! What’s done is done! And yet, we can cry out to God, to take away the spirit of gossip, which now gives us pleasure in our gossip, and plead for His faithful Spirit to take up residence within us!

NO GOSSIPS IN HEAVEN!
.
And while there will be no gossips in Heaven, there will be many, who repented of their gossip while there was still time here on earth!
.
And all those who died in faith, having forsaken our former sins (such as gossip), will be among the Redeemed, who will rise up out of their graves on Resurrection Morning, to live forever and ever in a glorious land, in which there will be no more vicious slanderous gossip, but will only be filled with sympathetic love and understanding and kind words for all others!

THE FIVE FOOLISH VIRGINS STARS
.
A new constellation has been revealed, as of about May 29th, 2014. This constellation appears as a serpent (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 (AKA Corona Borealis), 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!
