Daily Devotional, Year 3 – May 5
.
.
.
.
Planet Earth, Devil’s Island,
.
Part 6:
“Are We In Hell?”
To Read part 1 of this little series, go here…March 13th (Planet Earth: Devil’s Island!)
.
.
.
.
“For if God spared not the angels that sinned,
but cast them down to Hell,
and delivered them into chains of darkness,
to be reserved unto judgment…“
1st Peter 2:4
.
.
.
.
.
.
This above verse from Revelation reveals that this world is actually an integral part of Hell.
.
After all, were not those angels that were “cast…down to Hell”, cast down to this very world? Oh yes they were!
.
Now listen to this very similar verse from Revelation 12:9…“And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.”
.
And so, by putting these two verses together, it becomes clear that Hell includes this evil world.
.
Oh yes, the grave is also called Hell.

.
JUST LOOK AROUND!
.
But we don’t even need these two verses (nor the other similar Bible passages, either) which reveal that this present world is now called Hell.
.
No, there is enough evidence all around us to come to the very same conclusion!
.
Just look around at the world, and the things which are happening in every direction!

MURDERS
.
For instance, just look at all the murders committed each and every day!
.
Statistics show that there are roughly 1,300 murders each and every day around the world.
.
But common sense would conclude that these are merely the reported murders
.
Nobody knows how many murders in third world countries go unreported!
.
Probably two or three times that number (or more!)

MASS MURDERS BY ROGUE RELIGIONS
.
And what about those rogue religions who are committing mass murders in this and other countries, on a daily basis?

.
ABORTIONS
.
And of course, these numbers do not include abortions.
.
There are 115,000 abortions reported each day around the world.
.
And again, nobody knows the true number, which is probably far higher!

DRUGS & ADDICTION .
And what about all the drugs being illegally transported, sold and bought?
.
What about the availability of inexpensive alcohol?
.
Just imagine the misery and destruction that drugs and alcohol cause each day, around the world by those enslaved by drugs!

KIDNAPPINGS & SLAVERY
.
And what about all the kidnappings occurring around the world each day?
.
And what about all those who are sold into slavery of one type or another?
.
The heartless cruelty of those who buy and sell humans into slavery is unthinkable!

DIVORCE
.
And what about the divorce and adulteries occurring each day around the world?
.
And what about the misery and heartbreak that children must endure when their world gets torn apart by their parents’ divorce?

.
ILLNESS & DISEASE
.
And what about all the sickness and disease in the world?
.
Truly, many are going through their own personal Hell, around the world, suffering many types of illness!
.
.
.
.
.
.
LYING & CHEATING & STEALING
.
And what about all the lying, cheating, and stealing that occurs around the world each day?
.
People cannot even leave their belongings unprotected, for fear of losing them.
.
Scammers are everywhere, seemingly without conscience, lying and stealing what does not belong to them!
.
.
.
.
.
.
PORNOGRAPHY
.
And what about all the magazines, videos which promote nudity, and sexual promiscuity, tempting both men and women into lust?
.
More and more, men, women, and even children are becoming enslaved to pornography and lust.
.
Young girls, who should be wearing modest “little girl” clothing are now dressing in harlot’s attire on a frequent basis!
.
And as a result, rape is on the increase around the world!

TRACES OF HEAVEN’S LOVE
.
Of course, skeptics and nay-sayers will attempt to white-wash all this by pointing to all the nice things going on in the world.
.
And yes, God has graciously allowed mankind to experience some things which are not apparently evil.
.
A little of the beauty of nature has been allowed to remain for the sake of man’s enjoym
ent.
.
The joy of partaking of our daily bread.
.
The happiness and gratification derived from our daily labors.
.
The joy of seeing a newborn child.
.
These are just a few of the joys of life that are the remaining remnants of the unfallen world prior to its take-over by Lucifer’s government of selfishness.

MANY MORE ATROCITIES
.
And yet, in spite of those joys which God graciously gives us, the list of atrocities occurring here daily could possibly fill a dozen or more of these daily devotionals.
.
But for brevity’s sake, let it be simply said that this world is one gigantic “house of horrors”, to a great degree!

THE GOOD NEWS!
.
Well, the very Good News is, that the door of mercy is still ajar.
.
And those who are tired of spending the last remaining years of their lives caught in sin and selfishness, can still cry out for deliverance!
.
And those who truly do find redemption can actually be translated into the kingdom of Heaven, even though our physical bodies still must remain a little more time in this hopelessly lost and tragic world…Hell!
.
Yes, Heaven is for right now and right here, as it exists in our transformed and translated hearts!

NEW HEAVEN & NEW EARTH
.
Oh yes, there is a wonderful world awaiting us, in which all this hellish sin and torment and sorrow will be forever vanquished!
.
It is a world infinitely more beautiful than this sin-scorched Hell-on-Earth in which we are now imprisoned!
.
A world in which there will be no more anger or hatred! No more greed! No more tears of sorrow! No more con-jobs! No more murders! No more decapitations! No more torture-chambers! No more horrible daily news reports! No more sleepless nights! No more hospitals! No more broken homes! No more perverted and shameful addictions! No more wounded and suffering soldiers! No more broken hearts! No more blank stares of indifference on the faces of passers-by! No more fearful and devastating natural disasters!

EVERLASTING JOY & PEACE!
.
No, the Land which God has promised to all who truly follow Him to, will be a land in which joy and innocent laughter of little children will resound through the lush green valleys and everlasting hills!
.
A land in which the bells of true liberty will never be broken, but will continually ring out freedom’s song!
.
A land in which we will be forever young! Forever happy and content! Forever filled with such a great love, not just for our own little family, but a love for God and a love for all His children, the number of which will be as the sand of the sea!

TODAY’S FEATURED HEAVENLY SIGN
.
.
.
LOCATING THE DRAGON
.
REVELATION 12 DRAGON IS NOT DRACO!
.
.
First, let it be stated, that this Dragon Constellation is not the same constellation commonly referred to as “Draco” (photo to right is Draco).
.
This Revelation 12 Dragon from Signs Of Heaven, has not been previously recognized. But you will discover that it is a very intricate and complex constellation, once you are comfortable locating it (picture below, right).

REVELATION 12 DRAGON
.
.
The star-charts below (below, right) are from Wikipedia and are combined into one chart to show these three constellations, which the editor has sketched over with these three constellations, as they appear when in the west. Hopefully, this will be an assist in locating these constellations in the night-sky.
.
.
.
.
.
.
LOCATION…
.
.
The Revelation 12 Dragon Constellation can be located by finding Orion in winter months. The Dragon is to Orion’s left, and the Dragon’s mouth is right next to Orion’s shield. This Dragon’s mouth is the V-like constellation The Hyades Cluster, which is also known as the head of Taurus the Bull. The Dragon’s tail-tip is Pleiades and the lower shaft of his tail is partly of Aries and Pisces. Then with aid of a dark and starry night, you may begin to connect the mouth and the tail with a very long body in an oval shape. The front and back legs are made of a few stars: the front legs partially of stars from Taurus . The back legs and rear fin are made of 6 stars from the Cetus Constellation.
.
BODY HARD TO SEE
.
The long oval-shaped body has relatively few stars, but can been seen, howbeit with a dark, starry night. The four stars of the front fins are made partially of Taurus .
