Nature’s Witnesses,

Part 9:
“The Signs Of Heaven”

“The heavens declare the glory of God;
.
and the firmament sheweth His handywork.
.
Day unto day uttereth speech,
.
and night unto night sheweth knowledge”
Psalm 19:1, 2

BEAUTY, POETRY, WISDOM & LAWS
.
ALL TESTIFY OF OUR CREATOR!
.
Instead of arguing about the technical issues in the debate between Evolution and Creation, there are four powerful witnesses which testify of a divine Creator.
.
And so, in Part 1 (click here to read), it was put forth that in all of nature, there are various “Witnesses”, who all testify on behalf of the Creator! Beauty, Poetry, Wisdom, and Laws, all stand up and speak so eloquently in defense of nature’s God! And it would seem, that any doubter or skeptic, who would open his or her mind to carefully consider the testimony of these four very persuasive Witnesses, would eventually come to the same conclusion: there has to be a Creator, who is filled with these same qualities:
.
God, the Creator of nature’s “Beauty”.
.
God, the Creator of nature’s “Poetry”.
.
God, the Creator of nature’s “Wisdom”.
.
God, the Creator of nature’s “Law & Order”.

5TH WITNESS: LOVE!
.
But since the writing of that first devotional, yet another witness found in nature has risen up in defense of the Creator: a powerful witness that defies and even decimates the supposed logic of the so-called Theory of Evolution!
.
And so, in Part 2 (click here to read), we saw that there are not four, but five witnesses found in nature, 
which all testify of God’s Creation!
.
And just what is that 5th witness?
.
LOVE!
.
Yes, “Love” is the 5th witness found throughout nature!

6th WITNESS: NATURE’S GRANDEUR
.
But now it is discovered that nature has yet another witness: its “Awesome Grandeur”!
.
Yes, nature is awesome! And it is grand! Majestic and powerful! Or whatever further superlative one wishes to use to describe this 6th witness to nature’s Creator.

7th WITNESS: THE SIGNS OF HEAVEN
.
But in addition to these 6 witnesses, there is actually another: a 7th witness: “The Signs Of Heaven”!
.
Nowhere else in nature has God painted an actual portrait of His Gospel of Salvation. Or if He has, it has not yet been discovered.
.
But according to Luke 21:25, it is written…“And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars;”
.
Yes, God has created this amazing pictorial account of His Salvation plan, via the constellations seen during the four seasons. And these constellations have been placed exactly in the correct position where they present an orderly picture of the various aspects of Salvation.
.
.
.
.
.
.
FORGOTTEN/IGNORED TRUTHS
.
But these signs in the heavens also present various truths, which, though very biblical, yet have been ignored or rejected altogether by the church-world.
.
.
.
.
.
.
“FLEE FROM THE WRATH TO COME”
Matthew 3:7, Luke 3:7
.
But, in addition to those forgotten/ignored truths, these signs also sound the clarion call for God’s people to flee from the wrath to come in these last moments of earth’s probationary time, just prior to its final judgment.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
GOD’S SIGNATURE
.
And so, together with the other 6 witnesses found in nature, this 7th witness makes an eloquent case for a divine Creator.
.
It is almost as if God, Himself, has inscribed His signature upon His finished Creation, just as an artist would sign his name upon his finished canvas!
.
.
.
.
.
.
“For the invisible things of Him
from the creation of the world are clearly seen,
being understood by the things that are made,
even His eternal power and Godhead;
so that they are without excuse”
Romans 1:20

TODAY’S PRAYER…
“Dear Lord, Give me the joy of knowing more about the wonders of nature. Help me to see, not only the beauty and poetry of nature, and the wisdom of nature, but also the grandeur, the many pictures of Love: God’s love in nature. But also, show me these signs in the Sun, Moon, and stars..

TODAY’S FEATURED HEAVENLY SIGN
.
.
.
A HEAVENLY HOBBY
.
.
.
.
.
.
“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
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
“AND WHEN YE SEE THESE THINGS…
.
LOOK UP, LIFT UP YOUR HEAD”
.
There is one hobby which every ‘Noble Berean’ may take up, which only compliments the pursuit of the heavenly Prize.
.
Yes, Signs Of Heaven becomes a wonderfully rewarding hobby which, unlike many less meaningful hobbies, pays off with rich, heavenly rewards. Everlasting rewards!
.
And unlike the person in this photo with equipment, all you need is fairly good vision, and a dark, starry night.
.
And once a person really gets to know these heavenly messengers, it will become very apparent that the message connected with these signs is truly a message to be heeded.
.
Thus will the Christian be able to share this message with others. And there are perhaps many nuances and hidden biblical truths to these signs which have yet to be discovered.

.
FIRST FIND ORION & 7 STARS
.
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.
