How Shall the Moon Be Turned Into Blood?

Part 5:
“Mark of the Beast in the Moon!? 3rd Face: The Sadducee-Seeker”

.
.
.
There are three faces inscribed on the Moon’s surface: the face of a man (right), the face of a wolf-like beast (left), and the face of a foraging creature, like a rabbit or rodent (lower left).
.
While the 1st face symbolizes a watchful Christian, the 2nd face symbolizes the proud Pharisee who scorns others.
.
However, this 3rd face of a forest forager represents the faithless Sadducee. Yes, the Sadducees 
were a sect of Jews who had little or no faith that God is the great Provider of all things necessary for His children’s needs, including contentment and peace.
.
And so, this faithless forager continually seeks after the things of the world, just as a foraging beast of the forest continually seeks after food.
.
.
.
.
.
.
UNBELIEF!
.
Yes, so many church-attendees go to church faithfully, and yet have never developed a deep trust in God.
.
This is what the Sadducees were all about. They were consumed by their unbelief! Their conception of God was that He was way out in outer-space somewhere, probably looking down at Planet Earth through some giant telescope, monitoring the goings on here.
.
And they could not, or would not believe that God has much to do with the day-to-day goings on here, but merely looked down at us, to make sure that we hadn’t blown ourselves up, or something similar!

“But my God shall supply all your need…”
Philipians 4:19
.
And so, this unbelieving forager continually seeks after the things of the 
world.
.
And just like him, we Christians likewise seek after so many things of the world, thinking that the Gospel is not fully sufficient for our contentment and happiness.

REPULSED BY APOSTLES
.
For instance, we look at the Apostle, Paul, as a wonderful man, but do not want to be totally like him. We just don’t believe that Paul’s self-denying life would supply all our needs as far as fulfillment and happiness. Such a seemingly austere life as Paul’s (or John’s, or Peter’s, etc.) could never bring us all we need! He was just too selfless!
.
And so, instead of imitating these men, we merely erect statues to honor them!

SEEKING WORLDLY FULFILLMENT
.
And so, just like the little forest creatures, we continually seek for our earthly fulfillment in such things as television-watching, or sports, or social clubs, or various hobbies, or bigger or better homes and gardens, or nicer cars, or expensive vacation resorts, or banquetings, or politics, or novel-reading, or ambitious careers, or various amusements, or any one of countless other pursuits.
.
These earthly pursuits are the foraging which goes on when we do not trust explicitly in God’s Divine Providence!
.
We’re just like this 3rd face: a moon-beast forager!

.
BIG EYES FOR THE WORLD!
.
Concisely put, this 3rd Beast represents the lust of the eyes. That is why this 3rd face in the Moon has such big eyes!
.
Listen…“the eyes of a fool are in the ends of the earth.” Proverbs 17:24
.
Yes, this forest forager’s eyes are in the ends of the earth. He is not looking to Jesus. He is not wanting to become Christlike! He doesn’t believe that he could be happy living such a self-denying existence! And so, this earth-clinging forager continues to seek for his happiness in the things of the world!
.
.
.
.
.
.
STUDY, CONTEMPLATE & PRAY
.
Well, there is hope for all those of us who possess this same spirit of unbelief. And that hope is found in seeking for God’s grace.
.
Yes, we must carefully and prayerfully study and contemplate on God’s Word, and plead with God to take away our unbelief. We can plead with Him to fill our hearts with the same agape love and joy that Jesus had when walking the earth. We can begin to catch the same power of Spirit that Paul and John had!
.
And by so-doing, we may just find the joy of the Lord! We may just become filled with the overwhelming love of Jesus for friend and stranger alike!
.
…“Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you:
not as the world giveth, give I unto you….
And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding,
shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.”
John 14:27 & Philippians 4:7
.
It is such passages as these two, which give us assurance that God can indeed supply all our needs according to His riches in glory!

LOCATING THIS 3RD FACE
.
The 3rd face of the Moon is a bit more difficult to locate, because it is mostly upside down. But this photo and this sketch are how this face would appear if it was turned right side up. (In the southern hemisphere, however, this is how the Moon would appear.)
.
The third face is the most difficult to see in the northern hemisphere, but once you do, it then becomes easy. This face is like a furry creature of the field. Maybe a rabbit. Maybe a squirrel. Perhaps a chipmunk. Probably a mouse. All “seekers”; all foragers or scavengers.
.
And while this picture shows this little “beast of the field” right side up, this 3rd face is always pretty much in an upside-down position.
.
The other two faces appear right-side-up, and are easier to locate. This photo and this sketch are both turned around to help you see this 3rd face easily. This enhanced sketch to the above right is merely to help you to see this face more easily. (As already stated, this 3rd face is right side up in the southern hemisphere.)
