Daily Devotional, Year 3 – May 17

Television & The Image That Speaks,

.

Part 4:

“Television, The Irresistible Image-Maker”

To read Part 1, click here…October 27th (Television and the Image that Speaks)

.

“And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion,

that they should believe a lie:

That they all might be damned who believed not the truth,

but had pleasure in unrighteousness.”

2nd Thessalonians 2:11, 12

.

This above verse foretells of a day in which God will send strong delusion to those who have not received the love of the truth.

.

Of course, the apostate portion of the Church has always been subject to strong delusion.

.

**Because, “the (Antichrist) spirit that now works in the children of disobedience”, is the very essence of strong delusion. (see Ephesians 2:2)**

THE OVERWHELMING POWER OF TELEVISION

.

And yet, in these last moments of time, the Bible forewarns of an image that the entire world bows down to, and worships.

.

And as never before in history, this image has the ability to speak!

.

You see, we are living in that very day. And there is no fulfillment to that long-promised talking-image as great as television is (and other high-tech devices too).

.

And especially when one considers that the very name, “tele-vision” seems to fulfill a “talking image”, foretold in Revelation 13.

.

LIGHTING, MUSIC, STORY-LINES…AND HIDDEN AGENDA

.

Right now, the power of these productions is profound…

.

…with their incredible and colorful lighting…

.

…their enchanting and exciting music…

.

…their masterful storylines…

.

…and their well-disguised indoctrination into this Anti-Christ world-system!

.

Consequently, they create a normalcy in the minds of viewers, concerning this extremely abnormal world!

HEAVENLY ROLE-MODELS or HELLISH ROLE MODELS?

.

As most everyone in the Christian community understands, the Bible uses not only Jesus, but mere mortals, such as Paul, to be role-models for Christians to admire and emulate.

.

But Lucifer, now called Satan, fully understands this, and has given us his own role-models, for us to conform to.

.

And now, with the advent of television, radio, the printed page, and high-tech devices, like never before this Master-Destroyer has perfected his mind-control machinery in which to conform the world into his own selfish image!

.

And so, the many ‘superstars’ seen and adored by the lost multitudes on a daily basis, become firmly etched upon the tables of the human heart.

.

And as a result, these influences in the mind eventually translate into the actions and deeds in their own personal daily lives!

SATAN’S CHARACTER TRANSFERRED

.

This is the essence of the image of the beast, which, by the way, is the very image of the Dragon, Satan.

.

Oh yes, don’t be fooled by the “good and moral message” often presented in these productions.

.

Because, mingled within are the very qualities of Satan: lust, sensual music, anger, hatred, revenge, greed, commonness, unholiness, impatience, materialism, pride, “foolish talk & jesting”, a pretentious ‘form of godliness’, and other similar qualities. (See Ephesians 5:4 & 2nd Timothy 3:5-7)

HABAKKUK SAYS, “RUN!”

.

Yes, the Book of Habakkuk was written especially for this very day, in which the Lord commands us…

“And the LORD answered me, and said,

‘Write the vision (of unbelievers surrounding God’s people),

and make it plain upon tables,

that he may run that reads it.

For the vision is yet for an appointed time,

but at the end it shall speak, and not lie:

though it tarry, wait for it;

because it will surely come,

it will not tarry.”

Habakkuk 2:2, 3

OVERWHELMING INFLUENCE

.

Yes, the Book of Habakkuk foretells of the day when,

“the law is slacked, and judgment doth never go forth:

for the wicked doth compass about the righteous;

therefore wrong judgment proceedeth.”

Habakkuk 1:4

.

As this above verse foretells, the day is coming (and now is), when God’s people will be so overwhelmed by the corrupting power and influence of this unbelieving world, that they are commanded to flee!

And this website is literally teeming with articles on how and where we must flee to.

.

And the reader is highly encouraged to join this end-time exodus.

TODAY’S HEAVENLY SIGN

.

WINTER CONSTELLATIONS

This most amazing phenomenon is seen throughout the winter.

.

Although it can be observed most of the winter, it is seen best when it is the western part of the sky, at winter’s end

(The end of winter being the final scene of this heavenly Gospel story). Orion , the Dragon, and the Glorious White Horse are beginning to descend into the western horizon (sketch to right is Winter Constellations descending into western horizon. This can actually be seen as early as December, in the pre-dawn hours).

.

**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.**

.

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.

.

The sketch to left 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).**

.

(For more information on Orion’s sickle, just click here, “Orion The R eaper”. )
