“(According as it is written,

God hath given them (Israel) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Earrr.JPGthe spirit of slumber,

eyes that they should not see,

and ears that they should not hear;) unto this day.”

Romans 11:8, 20, 21

.

And so, his unsuccessful attempt to woo this adulterous woman which he loved, left Van Gogh without his one ear (at least in part).

WE TOO HAVE CUT OFF OUR EAR!

https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Vincent_van_gogh,_autoritratto_con_un_orecchio_bendato,_1889,_01.JPGNow today’s society laughs at Van Gogh’s foolish “sacrifice of love”.

.

And yet, many Christians have actually cut off BOTH EARS, for the sake of a harlot woman’s love!

.

WELL, HOW COULD THAT POSSIBLY BE TRUE!?

.

Yes, many, or perhaps most of the professed people of God have made an even greater, “sacrifice of love” for a certain, “woman of ill repute”, which is the Bible symbol for the apostate portion of the Church!

.

In other words, the Bible compares the apostate churches to an adulterous woman. (For greater insight into this truth, read the article, Today’s Devotional – May 12th (Come Out of Her, My People! Part 1)

.

And those who remain in such dead congregations, do not and cannot hear nor understand the deeper truths veiled within the seemingly countless allegories, parables and types and symbols found therein.

“YE NEED NOT THAT ANY MAN TEACH YOU”

1st John 2:27

.

Some 60 years ago, one commercial construction engineer named Harold Camping began a radio station dedicated to broadcasting the Gospel to San Francisco Bay area.

.

And about the same time, this engineer-turned-Bible-teacher decided to begin studying his Bible as if he were cramming for a college final exam.

.

And so, for about an average of 5 or 6 hours per day, Camping began studying his Bible, comparing scripture with scripture, and spiritual things with spiritual. And rather than reading the writings of the past theologians, Camping decided to let the Bible-only, be his sole arbiter of truth.

“THEREFORE I SPEAK TO THEM IN PARABLES”

Matthew 13:13

.

http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Holy_bible.jpgWell, in the process of time, Camping realized that the Bible was a spiritual Book. In other words, he began to discern that the many various stories of both testaments presented spiritual truths, which were veiled within the many allegories, parables, and prophecies contained therein.

.

You could say that Camping had “ears to hear” in a day when most Bible teachers and theologians do not see, nor do they hear the deeper spiritual truths of “hidden manna”, veiled within those true historical accounts.

A WALKING PARABLE? OR NOT?

.

Now it is rather interesting, that when looking at a photo of Harold Camping, he obviously had extremely large ears!

.

It almost reminds one of the many times in which God said something like, “He that hath ears to hear, let him hear!” Matthew 11:15, etc…

.

And from looking at his photos, it was evident that Camping definitely had ears to hear!

.

.

CAMPING, A WALKING PARABLE?

.

Well, whether or not God purposely gave Harold his large ears that he might be a walking parable, is really irrelevant.

.

The fact is, although not trained in theological seminaries, Harold Camping arguably became one of the greatest theologians of the New Testament era, cracking open seemingly countless mysterious Bible verses which no other theologian could previously interpret or discern!

.

Oh no, Camping’s teachings were not perfect. And yet, he corrected many of the gross errors of the so-called “orthodox” teachings of the Christian church-world!

.

And all that a Noble Berean has to do is to listen to the many audio Bible studies contained at the bottom of each day’s devotional (in the year-1 & year-2 devotionals), to see whether or not this website’s glowing assessment of Harold Camping is accurate.

TODAY’S FEATURED HEAVENLY SIGN

THE HOLY GHOST RIDER CONSTELLATION

.

This newest Signs Of Heaven Constellation (Fall, 2013) is by far the faintest of constellations, but is a very incredible and awesome one in a number of ways (which this article will explain).

.Holy-Ghost-Rider in the Western night-sky

It is primarily comprised of the Camelopardalis Constellation (head and upper back), plus about 5 stars from the Cassiopeia Constellation (his leg), plus some random stars. It appears as an outline of a rider. Only the back of his head is detailed. And his back and the back of his legs are also detailed. Both sides of his arm are visible, and his hand is gripping the horses mane, and that is detailed by three stars (which are also part of the horse’s mane). The rider is in a position vaguely similar to a race-horse jockey. The two brightest stars in this constellation, are from the Cassiopeia Constellation, and are part of his leg. All the rest of the stars are very faint, and must be viewed on a very starry night.

.

Since this constellation has just been revealed, there may be more to this constellation in the coming months. But if you can locate the Goodly Horse in Battle Constellation, then you shouldn’t have too much trouble locating this Rider Constellation, provided you have excellent star-watching conditions. 

.

The above picture is not a totally accurate, but hopefully close enough to locate these constellations in the night-sky. Scroll down this page to see actual star-charts.

“HE THAT HATH EARS TO HEAR”

.

“He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches;” Rev. 2:7, 11, 17, 29, 3:6, 13, 22

As you can easily see, this horse has some very big ears. Of course, this presents a very big concept. And since this Rider represents the Holy Spirit, it is obvious that He is leaning close, as if to whisper His words in the horses’ ears. And so what is He (The Spirit) whispering in this horses ears? Well, primarily the messages to the 7 churches, found in Revelation Ch.’s, 2 & 3.

.

But not everyone has ears to hear. Listen to Ezekiel… “Son of man, thou dwellest in the midst of a rebellious house, which have eyes to see, and see not; they have ears to hear, and hear not: for they are a rebellious house.” Ezek. 12:2. Yes, the rebellion amongst God’s professing people was great, and they had all but closed their ears from hearing truth.

.

Well it’s the very same problem in the New Testament. Listen to Jesus… “If any man have ears to hear, let him hear.” Mark 7:16.

.

So this Rider whispering into this Horse’s ears is a heavenly picture of this concept… “He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches;” Rev. 2:7, 11, 17, 29, 3:6, 13, 22.

Holy-Ghost-Rider Constellation.

Now the great lesson to be learned, is that there are certain truths, which those who are rebellious in God’s house, will not be able to hear. And these messages to the 7 churches are those very types of messages, that many “Christians” just do not like to hear.

.

And so, what is the bottom line. Well, it would be a very good idea, for each and every one of us to humble ourselves before God, and plead with Him to give us spiritual ears to hear these deeper truths which God is trying to tell us.
