“For when they shall say,
‘Peace and safety’;
then sudden destruction
cometh upon them,
as travail upon a woman with child;
and they shall not escape.”
1st Thessalonians 5:3
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
What in the world is going on here!?
.
This world is getting out of control, isn’t it?
.
The hatred and strife is reaching such a feverish pitch that people are really getting nervous, to put it mildly.
.
And they’re confused about it, too! After all, it seems like the things we’ve always trusted in are beginning to crumble like the proverbial castle-made-of-sand!

A WOMAN IN TRAVAIL
.
But listen again to today’s signature verse…“For when they shall say, ‘Peace and safety’; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not 
escape.”1st Thessalonians 5:3
.
Yes, as this above verse reveals, the world’s destruction is coming “as travail upon a woman with child…”.
.
And as most people understand, when a woman goes into birth pangs, these painful contractions begin to get closer and closer together in time until they are in rapid succession, causing the childbirth to finally come.
.
And isn’t it true that the troubles coming on this world have seemed like birth pangs? Just a few years ago, troubles came and went. But today, it seems like troubles are now happening in rapid succession, much like labor pains just prior to birth! The earth is beginning to shake!

THE URSA MAJOR ‘MOTION PICTURE’ IN THE HEAVENS
.
As a matter of fact, this concept of a woman in labor pains is actually inscribed in the very night sky!
.
You see, in the spring, if you look to the north, the constellation commonly known as Ursa major actually looks like a headless woman who is with child.

TRAVAILING WOMAN TURNS AROUND IN WINTER
.
And yet, as summer turns to fall, and fall turns to winter, this constellation slowly rotates until it is upside-down, now appearing as a running woman with upraised arms. And she is no longer headless, since that single star in her womb now symbolizes her head, and represents Christ, who now is “the head of the body, the Church!” Colossians 1:18

“BY MANY INFALLIBLE PROOFS”
Acts 1:3
.
And when we consider all these current events, and how accurately the Bible foretold that they would happen in the last days, it’s further proof that the Bible is the infallible Word of Almighty God.
.
Listen…“Behold, the former things are come to pass, and new things do I declare: before they spring forth I tell you of them.” Isaiah 42:9
.
Yes, our God is an all-knowing God…“His understanding is infinite” Psalm 147:5
.
And by these prophecies, we know that “The Coming of the Lord draweth nigh!” James 5:8

“GOOD NEWS FROM A FAR COUNTRY!”
Proverbs 25:25
.
There is some very Good News in all this!
.
Yes, today is still the day of Salvation!
.
And any man, woman, or child can renounce this present selfish world, and begin to walk onward and upward upon the pathway of truth as he or she makes their Heaven-bound sojourn to the Celestial City of God in that wonderful Promised Land where we will be forever joyful and forever young!

REVELATION 12 WOMAN CONSTELLATION
.
.
This page is about the Big Dipper, also called the Great Bear constellation (Ursa Major ). However, the ancient pagan cultures did not see this constellation as God intended it to be seen. It is actually a headless woman in childbirth. This is seen in springtime. It is seen in the northern skies.
.
But as the seasons progress, this travailing woman flips upside down, now appearing as a woman with upraised arms like eagle wings who is running (eventually flying, as shown in sketch on right) into the wilderness (westward).
.
.
The single star representing her birth-child (Christ) now becomes her head (“Christ is the head of the church.” Ephesians 5:23
.
The 7 Stars (Big Dipper) is easy to see with its very bright 7 stars. But the Revelation 12 Woman (Ursa Major) must be seen on a dark starry night, away from city lights.
.
These are star charts from Wikipedia, with sketches of the Woman added.
