When the Orion message was first published in 2010, what was taking shape would turn out to be the answer to the greatest question of mankind’s existence: how long? From atheist to saint, everyone asks this question. It is often a question of how long until humanity can no longer live on this planet. For Christians, it is a question of when the great Progenitor of the Christian name will return to bestow upon them the same eternal quality of life which He has been experiencing since His resurrection.

He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life. (1 John 5:12)

And the life that is in Christ is promised not to the living saints only, but also to the dead:

Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this? (John 11:25-26)

Humanity’s final war is a struggle for life. It is a war for survival, as is universally recognized by all sides. The conflict comes because of different opinions on how to survive. The world that does not fear God believes that man’s intellect can overcome every obstacle, but the Christian knows that there is only ONE path that does not end in death.

I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture. (John 10:9)

Ever since 2010 when Jesus was recognized in the constellation of Orion,^[1] the door to greener pastures has been open. In this article, the Orion message will come full circle as we communicate the ultimate teaching that comes from the sign of the Son of man, His royal monogram that comprises the initials Alpha and Omega, as introduced in this article series (blue and red, respectively):

As this royal insignia brings the Orion message full circle, circumstances in the world are dire. Opportunities that have been taken for granted are closing, and inaction will in hindsight be recognized for its disastrous consequences. Learning never ends, but there comes a point when decisions are made, either to accept or to reject—to choose one’s colors. We pray this article will seal your choice to stand with the ranks of those who do not put their trust in man, but in God.

Thus saith the Lord; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the Lord.

Blessed is the man that trusteth in the Lord, and whose hope the Lord is. (Jeremiah 17:5,7)

The Seal of God

Since the time of Israel’s Exodus from the bondage of Egypt, the forehead was where the law of God was to be memorialized:

And it shall be for a sign unto thee upon thine hand, and for a memorial between thine eyes, that the Lord’s law may be in thy mouth: for with a strong hand hath the Lord brought thee out of Egypt. (Exodus 13:9)

Like the Israelites were gradually enslaved over the course of some 400 years, so with similar subtlety, the world has become enslaved again. The whips and yokes and taskmasters are now interest rates and inflation and “taxmasters,” among other things. To live free from bondage and never go back, the Israelites were to have the law of God written in their forehead, in the frontal lobe of the brain, which is the seat of judgment, of executive function, of voluntary action, and most importantly of free will. THIS is the real spiritual battleground.

The previous article explained how the law of God, encoded in the DNA, is represented in the sign of the Son of man. Those who belong to God, those who carry His name, must have His DNA—not only the original human DNA that He created, but also the DNA of His character. This is His law which must be written in the frontal lobes of His people, so that they don’t fall back into slavery to sin.

To have the law written on the forehead means to judge, plan, execute, and take voluntary action in accordance with His nature. To put it another way, a woman (as an example for the church) traditionally takes the name of her husband, and her actions become an extension of his. If she racks up debt, for example, the law will turn to HIM if she can’t pay it. Therefore, the church must be in harmony with Christ, not to act contrary to His will, because she has taken His name and her freedom is not her own, but she was bought with a price.^[2] 

Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain; for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain. (Exodus 20:7)

From Exodus to Revelation, one finds the same symbolism. Whereas in Exodus the law was to be a memorial on the forehead (i.e., in the mind),^[3] in Revelation it is the name of God that is given as a memorial:

Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name. (Revelation 3:12)

Even though this verse does not specifically indicate the forehead, it is so to be understood, as it describes a threefold seal of God. A line from an old, prophetic dream that was included in the Orion presentation makes it clear:

The 144,000 were all sealed and perfectly united. On their foreheads was written, God, New Jerusalem, and a glorious star containing Jesus’ new name. {EW 15.1}

Now understand this in the context of the present study of the divine monogram, because what is the seal, if it isn’t this sign? And how does one get this seal on their forehead?

It should be clear that studying the sign of the Son of man (having it in mind and contemplating it with all the reasoning faculties of the frontal lobe) is included in what it means to have the seal of God on the forehead. However, it is deeper than that. It has to be written—which means there has to be a writer. Even this is depicted in the sign of the Son of man itself:

Notice the chisel (constellation Caelum). This chisel is the tool that is used for engraving letters. As illustrated int the heavens, the chisel is even directed toward the forehead of the fish. It is about writing the seal of God on the foreheads of Christians. Those who allow their stony hearts to be broken up by the chisel of the Lord in so doing receive a heart of flesh like His—a frontal lobe that judges, plans, executes, and volunteers like He did. Such ones He depicts as Dorados, a freshwater fish native to the rivers of tropical South America, including Paraguay. The name Dorado literally means “golden” in Spanish, and refers to the golden color of the fish. Symbolically, they are golden because they have a pure faith like gold tried in the fire, and fish because they are Christians.

For the name of God to be written on the forehead, however, there must be a writer. Although God could send an angel to do this work, this is not how God works. In practice, God sends ordinary people like you and me similarly to how he showed it to Ezekiel in one of his visions, where men were sent from the throne on a divine mission to mark (or seal) worthy men on their foreheads.

And the Lord said unto him, Go through the midst of the city, through the midst of Jerusalem, and set a mark upon the foreheads of the men that sigh and that cry for all the abominations that be done in the midst thereof. (Ezekiel 9:4)

He gives them the privilege of participating in the work, so that they will be worthy of the reward to come.^[4] 

This has been the privilege of our work since the beginning. When Brother John discovered the Orion clock at the end of 2009 (or even when he received instruction from the Holy Spirit before that), it was his privilege and joy to share it with others. That privilege continues and extends to you even through this final sealing message.

In our study forum, Brother John captured this sentiment in the following excerpt from a longer post:

Did you see the only constellation in the area of the α and ω that I did not mention so far?

There is the easel with an unfinished painting right above the whole scene, the best position for the painter to look over the panorama of God’s providence and the leading of His church to capture it for all time in the greatest work of art for the universe.

Who is the painter?

The answer is easily seen by turning the picture into the corresponding direction. It is the now upright standing Dorado who paints the picture, the sealed fish inspired by the Dove of the Holy Spirit, always looking exactly to that position of the pendulum where the hour of their rapture will be struck by E3.

Not only does this description of the painter characterize Brother John’s work, but it characterizes the work of every single one who follows the same example of our Lord’s sacrifice like Philadelphia did. As he was anointed by the Holy Spirit (depicted as the dove), and he reached out to seal others with the time he saw indicated by the heavenly clock, so you can too. That which the Holy Spirit does for us, we may show to others as our testimony—our witness to the work of Time—to present the heavenly masterpiece that the Lord is creating.

In this way, everyone has the opportunity to bring the picture on the easel to the eyes of others, so that they can receive the seal of God on their forehead as well. This is how every individual can participate in the work of God and win another soul to Christ even in these troublous times. If you will serve Him in heaven, you must first serve Him on earth. It doesn’t matter who you are; every one of us proves the pithy adage true: “God does not call the qualified, He qualifies the called.” Service on earth is your qualification for service in the kingdom to come.

The Meaning in a Name

The golden Dorado represents God’s sealed people who act as the painter at the easel, collectively portraying a complete picture of Jesus as a witness to this last generation. They are sealed, not merely because they are aware of the heavenly sign of the seal, but because they have allowed the Holy Spirit to perform in their lives the work that it represents.

This is what is to be written on the foreheads of the saints because those who steadfastly behold the divine countenance are also transformed into His likeness.

But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord. (2 Corinthians 3:18)

When you look in the mirror, do you see the image of Jesus Christ? Do you see someone who has His character, someone who acts on His behalf, who in daily life writes checks of mercy to give to the poor in Spirit: checks emblazoned with the divine monogram, which the Bank of Heaven is happy to honor in the name of its Owner and Founder?

Or to express it in terms more suitable to the fintech of the new millennium, are you one who in daily life sends instant payments of forgiveness at the speed of light to those who are in “fiat debt” to the overlords of the waning tyranny? Are your interactions with fellow human beings of a quality as good as spiritual gold—a faith commodity rare and precious like the blood of Jesus Christ?

The letters alpha and omega that we see in heaven are the Lord’s signature, as though on a contract, or a covenant. But what do those initials stand for? Normally, a monogram would consist of the first and last names of the person. Sometimes a middle initial is also included. The letters represent the name, and the name represents the person. Now, one could ask, if alpha and omega are the letters that represent the Lord’s name, then what is His name? Jesus is given many names in the Bible that describe something about His character.

For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. (Isaiah 9:6)

Some like to call Him using His Hebrew name, Yeshua or a variant thereof and there is nothing wrong with that but let the one who speaks a word in reference to the Lord do so understanding its meaning. With the translated names like “Counsellor” it is straightforward, but with foreign names, even if we can pronounce them perfectly, we may not understand their meaning.

And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins. (Matthew 1:21)

So, what is He referring to when Jesus calls Himself Alpha and Omega? When we see the letters Alpha and Omega in the sign of the Son of man, it suggests that the Lord’s first name (in Greek) begins with the letter alpha and His family name begins with the letter omega. They form an abbreviation of His “full name.”

Since the beginning of the Orion message, we have understood that Jesus’ new name is the ancient Arabic name of the central star of the Orion clock, Alnitak, as mentioned earlier. But in the description of Jesus’ return, the Bible speaks of the revelation of another name as John described what he saw:

His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself. (Revelation 19:12)

When the Lord returns, this special name will be written. It is written in the sign of the Son of man—that heavenly writing that represents the Person of the Son of man.

And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven [with this unknown name]: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man [in Person] coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. (Matthew 24:30)

When the sign of the Son of man appears, this name (or the monogram representing it) is seen and recognized for the first time. It is only made known when it is revealed in heaven, and that means we should know it now, because we can see that the sign will form through the intervening months until our Lord will be seen with our very eyes.

Do you know His name yet? It is not only His new name, but also His family name, and every student of the Orion message can appreciate it. It has been used extensively, but no man knew it was written in the sign of the Son of man. Only now that the sign can be read is He making known that name:

The mystery is solved when we recognize that the letter omega in Greek (ω) is a vowel whose sound corresponds to the letter “o” in English, while the letter alpha (α) corresponds to “a”. Alnitak is Jesus’ new name,^[5] but in what “family” is that star representing the Lord found? It is in the constellation family of Orion. His full new name is thus “Alnitak of Orion.” He is both the first and the last (name).

The Bible was written in Greek, however, so we must check that these celestial names do in fact have the Greek initials of alpha and omega. After all, even more like our English “o” is Greek’s other “o” that has curiously become a household term in the Covid era: omicron. You can check for yourself using Google Translator: In Greek, the name of the star Alnitak is written as Αλνιτάκ, clearly beginning with the letter alpha (A). And the name of the constellation Orion is written as Ωρίων, also clearly beginning with the letter omega (Ω).^[6] 

Interestingly, one can learn that the writing on the forehead of the 144,000 is not only the name (or initials) of Jesus, but also of the Father:

Then I looked, and behold, the Lamb was standing on Mount Zion, and with Him 144,000 who had His name and the name of His Father written on their foreheads. (Revelation 14:1 NASB)

One could understand this to mean that the Father has the same initials as His Son, or said more naturally, the Son has the same initials as the Father. If you’ve seen the initials of the Son, you’ve seen the initials of the Father too.

If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him. (John 14:7)

Following the pattern, the middle star of Orion’s belt stars—the one that represents the Father—is named Alnilam. Those are the only two stars of Orion whose names begin with the letter alpha (in Greek).

But is there a deeper meaning yet behind this Alpha and Omega name of our Lord and Father? Biblical names have significance. They tell of the character of the one so named. God is love; His character is the essence of love. His name is Love. So, what does Orion mean? Or better, what does it stand for?

Is it a coincidence that of all 88 constellations in the sky, exactly two begin with the letter omega in Greek: Orion and Horologium, Ωρολόγιον? The two time-telling constellations—the hourglass of Orion and the pendulum clock, Horologium—stand as the two trunks of the tree of life on either side of the river of life (Eridanus). They are intimately connected, both of the same family of Time—at the beginning and the end, with the water of the river of time continually passing through them, giving life and sustenance to their fruit in all creation.

For in him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain also of your own poets have said, For we are also his offspring. (Acts 17:28)

From the beginning of Creation in Orion to the time of the end in the Horologium, the common element is the time. And the “time” in Greek is the ωρα:

G5610 ὥρα hora (ho'-rah) noun

1. an “hour”

{literally or figuratively [meaning the “time”]}

When Jesus described Himself as the omega, He effectively said, “I am the time of the beginning in Orion and of the end in the Horologium”; His character of love cannot permit sin to endure forever. He will bring its time to an end.

The name Alnitak is an ancient name from Arabic that means “The Wounded One.” This is the Lord’s character, not just a statement of fact. Why was He wounded? The Bible tells us plainly:

But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. (Isaiah 53:5)

Jesus was wounded for us—for His love for us. A different word is used to describe this kind of self-sacrificial, benevolent love in Greek. It is αγαπη:

G26 ἀγαπη agape (ag-ah'-pay) noun

1. love, i.e. affection or benevolence

Thus, when Jesus declares that He is the Alpha and the Omega, He says that He is Alnitak of Orion, He is one with the Father, He is love and the time to express it; the αγαπη and the ωρα.

To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven: A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted; (Ecclesiastes 3:1-2)

Jesus was in the beginning at Creation and He is in the present at the destruction as prophesied in Revelation 19. We are in the time of the end; the time to die; the time to pluck up that which was planted. But those who know the Lord’s name need not fear. He is The Wounded One of all time, so that we might have life for all time to come. Because God is Time, all three members of the Divine Council are Time, but Jesus is the One of those Three who are Time who was wounded. He is Alnitak—the Alpha—the Wounded One of the Divine family of Time—the Omega.

Closing the Circle of Light

The Lord presents Himself as the Alpha and Omega at the beginning of the book of Revelation, when He introduces Himself to the 7 churches and again at the end, when He presents His bride, the Holy City. The seven churches represent His whole church on the earth:

I was in the Spirit on the Lord’s day, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet, Saying, I am Alpha and Omega, the first and the last: and, What thou seest, write in a book, and send it unto the seven churches which are in Asia; unto Ephesus, and unto Smyrna, and unto Pergamos, and unto Thyatira, and unto Sardis, and unto Philadelphia, and unto Laodicea. (Revelation 1:10-11)

The churches in each of those cities were personally addressed, and a promise was given to those who would overcome from each. Then the main content of the Revelation tells the story of the victory of the church through time and the remnant of her seed, over the enemy. In conclusion, the Lord’s bride is presented—the new Jerusalem, wherein the church dwells:

And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely. He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son. ... And there came unto me one of the seven angels which had the seven vials full of the seven last plagues, and talked with me, saying, Come hither, I will shew thee the bride, the Lamb’s wife. And he carried me away in the spirit to a great and high mountain, and shewed me that great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God, (Revelation 21:6-10)

Thus, the book Revelation closes the circle as the seven churches become the one bride. Jesus as the Alpha and the Omega is connected to this transformation. At this point, it would be good to go back to the first light that the Lord had led Brother John to share publicly through the Internet. The Spirit has been leading from the beginning as the Alpha and Omega, to bring His scattered people into one body.

Since its publication in 2010, the Orion presentation has included towards the end of its study the following slides that reveal the royal name of Jesus:

Of the three belt stars representing the Godhead, Alnitak is the star that represents Jesus who sits at the right hand of the Father in heaven (the left as seen from our perspective). We see how the Lord, who was wounded for our transgressions,^[7] is the Girdle that binds the church to God.

In this context, we are given to understand why the divine monogram indicates not only the new name of Jesus, but also the name of God the Father. As represented by Alnilam of Orion, the Father shares the same initials as the Son. They are ever united in purpose and character. As you read and contemplate the following slides, you will get an impression of the majesty of the Lord (and the magnitude of the sin of those who reject His mercy).

Today, astronomers use Greek letters to designate the stars. However, those letters are used more like numbers than names, and have no relation to the name of Jesus “that no man knew but He Himself,”^[8] signifying that we must not follow man’s arbitrary labeling of the stars, but God’s who gave the starry illustrations their meaning.

As you read those slides, is it beginning to make sense why the Lord—the Alpha and the Omega—sent the Orion message (ω) with Alnitak (α) as its central star? The blood of sacrifices represented the life. In the blood is the DNA, the code of life, which defines a person. It is about character. Only because of the ministry of Jesus as the great Intercessor who pleaded His blood in place of ours can we escape the eternal consequences of sin, which is death. From the beginning of this message, He was preparing us for the end.

Do you see the connection between the river Eridanus and the river of the human blood-line through time, or DNA, whose course Satan is trying to control today? For man to directly and willfully interfere with the human genome is to play with fire.

Can a man take fire in his bosom, and his clothes not be burned? (Proverbs 6:27)

But God has given this message of warning to all the world so that those who love Him, those who are wise, those who honor Him would be well-prepared to take heed and not dare to usurp the Creator’s authority and with their own will, defile what He created perfect in the beginning.

Science once taught that our DNA is set and unchanging, but it has since come to understand that our double helix is far more complex and changeable according to the course of our lives. This is why it is often observed that the character of parents is inherited by the children. When one begins to live by the Spirit of Christ, he becomes a new creature^[9] and his DNA is consequently renewed. As those hereditary tendencies are overcome, one’s genes are changed.

The heavenly sanctuary is the house of God where the sinner can go by faith to receive cleansing from the defilement of his character.

The mercy seat is represented by the three belt stars of Orion. Alnitak, meaning the Wounded One, marks the side where the blood was poured out for the salvation of man.

The results of the investigation are now being manifested. Many have proven unworthy, because instead of looking up to the Savior in Orion for salvation, they have trusted in man to heal them and protect them. Some will still waver and capitulate under increasing pressure, coercion, or persecution, and it is for those that this message now must be given to strengthen them. Let this point be driven home, that they keep their crown of life, refuse any vaccine or attempt of man to tamper with their DNA, and escape the lake of fire. The eyes of these ones need to be directed up to their Savior and King.

By faith in Christ, we may overcome sin and regenerate our DNA as it affects our character. We become a new creature in the image of Christ. But if we put our faith in man and his genetic technology, we become a new creature in the image of man. Many have recognized that a similar genetic manipulation was happening in the days of Noah.

These are the generations of Noah: Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations, and Noah walked with God. (Genesis 6:9)

Noah was perfect “in his generations,” meaning in his bloodline, his DNA. His godly fathers had not been carried away with the lust of the eyes to engage in marriages with the “daughters of men” and thus defile their bloodline.

And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man. (Luke 17:26)

As the early pioneers of the judgment church followed Jesus by faith when He went into the most holy place of the heavenly sanctuary, so this last generation follows Him wherever He goes today.

The 144,000 are the followers of Jesus. They are the ones who in self-denial choose a path of sacrifice as He did, not regarding their own life and salvation more than that of their fellow man. They are ones who will reach out to help others, even when they themselves are in need. The wicked saw that selfless love in Christ but could never understand it:

And the people stood beholding. And the rulers also with them derided him, saying, He saved others; let him save himself, if he be Christ, the chosen of God. (Luke 23:35)

Jesus would not save Himself. He knew the price that had to be paid for our salvation, and that price will never be forgotten. It is memorialized in the heavens.

Throughout eternity, none will ever speak of any wound, of any harm, of any wrong suffered except what was transferred to our Lord in the sanctuary of heaven. He bears it all, and He alone is worthy to be remembered for His suffering. He alone is Alnitak, “The Wounded One” of Orion, Alpha and Omega.

For what glory is it, if, when ye be buffeted for your faults, ye shall take it patiently? but if, when ye do well, and suffer for it, ye take it patiently, this is acceptable with God. (1 Peter 2:20)

Nobody in heaven will remember any hurt, because all who have been redeemed from sin will know that it was only the mercy of God.

For the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall lead them unto living fountains of waters: and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes. (Revelation 7:17)

There is only One who is able to wipe away all tears, because it was His blood that healed their wounds.

The King and His Realm

Since 2010, with the recognition of Alnitak as the star containing Jesus’ new name, “Orionists” have prayed to the Lord with reference to His new name—Jesus, the Wounded One, or Jesus-Alnitak. Today, His initials over the heavenly clocks confirm and verify that they were right to do so. The divine monogram of the Alpha and the Omega signifies our Lord’s FIRST NAME and LAST NAME, just as He indicated from the beginning of the Revelation:

I was in the Spirit on the Lord’s day, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet, Saying, I am Alpha and Omega, the first and the last: and, What thou seest, write in a book, and send it unto the seven churches which are in Asia;…. (Revelation 1:10-11)

Why is it important to know the full name of Jesus? He called Himself our friend and brother, and so He was. He laid aside His divinity to become one of humanity. In this sense, Jesus is familiar to us. He has experienced life on earth as we have experienced it, with its joys and pains.

For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. (Hebrews 4:15)

In this sense, we know Him on a first-name basis. We call Him Alnitak, knowing that like we have been wounded by sin, He also suffered and was wounded for sin. We know He understands.

For both he that sanctifieth and they who are sanctified are all of one: for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren, Saying, I will declare thy name unto my brethren, in the midst of the church will I sing praise unto thee. (Hebrews 2:11-12)

We are united to the Savior in a more intimate way than even the angels. We are one blood with Him! We are His children, and without exception, children share the DNA of their forebears.

But before we could become His children, He first became our Child.

Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil; And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage. For verily he took not on him the nature of angels; but he took on him the seed of Abraham. (Hebrews 2:14-16)

If Jesus Christ took upon Himself the nature of humanity four thousand years after the fall, do we dare despise the very same genetic heritage that He was not ashamed to take? And if by faith we receive the cleansing of His blood—His human blood, having overcome the devil in our flesh—dare we trust any other imprint upon the code of life than that of His own making?

Jesus has carried His blood—our nature, our shared genetic heritage—into the highest heaven, so that even though He stands there high and lifted up in Orion, we can still call Him by His first name, Alnitak, in cognizance of His role in reconciling our fallen nature to God the Father. His blood is a specimen of humanity in heaven, and those who on earth pass the DNA test, those on earth whose genetic signature matches the heavenly specimen are alone approved as heirs, as children of the Father.

But Jesus is also royalty, and He commands respect. He has not only a first name, but a last name. Like the aristocrats of old, He is referred to not only by His name, but also by His kingdom. He is not just any Alnitak. He is not just any wounded man. He is the Alnitak of Orion, the wounded Prince of Heaven who was hurt by me!

There are many who claim Jesus as their Savior. There are many who are happy to pile their sins upon His shoulders and continually wring the blood from His wounds to cover their endless indulgences. But these ones will soon realize that Jesus did not become a man to play games. He did not give His blood just for the books. He did not come to parley with the devil but to destroy him, as He said to the serpent in the beginning:

And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and hers; he will crush your head, and you will strike his heel. (Genesis 3:15 NIV)

Jesus is now coming as the King. And whenever a rightful king comes back to power, he always puts to death the traitors who served the enemy in deposing him. (And he need not do it himself; he has officers and a whole army for that.)

It does no good to accept Jesus as your Savior if you do not also make Him your Sovereign. It does no good to confess your sins if you do not let Jesus eradicate them.

No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon. (Matthew 6:24)

Dominion over sin is essential. This is what the Lord enjoined upon Cain before he killed Abel:

And the Lord said unto Cain, Why art thou wroth? and why is thy countenance fallen? If thou doest well, shalt thou not be accepted? and if thou doest not well, sin lieth at the door. And unto thee shall be his desire, and thou shalt rule over him. (Genesis 4:6-7)

Sin wants to have you, but you shall rule over it. Jesus is Savior and Sovereign, and as His child you have His authority to rule over the sin in your life, and you must. Like a good soldier defending the kingdom of his sovereign, you must put sin to death in your own life. That is the meaning of baptism. And that is what Jesus’ full name signifies: Alnitak of Orion, both Savior and Sovereign—the Potentate of time.

Every seal has three parts: name, office, and territory. Now we know His name is Alnitak, and His territory is Orion—the brightest constellation of heaven, signifying the seat of His sovereignty which extends to the whole heaven; there is none greater.

But what is His office? The clue is in the connecting constellation of Eridanus. Both clock constellations and the river between them are important to the seal. Orion represents Jesus as the High Priest, the One who interceded for mankind with His own blood. He is described in Revelation as the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world:

And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world. (Revelation 13:8)

This verse implicates time—specifically the time of earth’s history. Note that despite that Satan causes all who are not God’s to worship him for a time, ALL PEOPLE will ultimately worship Jesus, even those who will not inherit eternal life.

For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God. (Romans 14:11)

There is a specific reason why everyone will worship Jesus. He will not return as King of kings and Lord of lords solely by virtue of being the Son of God, but because He deserves that office. He is worthy, ultimately even in the eyes of the wicked. Why does He deserve it? The Bible tells us:

And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels round about the throne and the beasts and the elders: and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands; Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing. (Revelation 5:11-12)

The Lamb who was slain deserves to receive power. This is shown pictorially in the sign of the Son of man through the three main constellations: Orion represents Jesus as the promised Intercessor, the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world. His blood that flowed for the salvation of mankind is symbolized by the river Eridanus, in which Jesus was baptized in death and rose again. On the other side is the Horologium, which represents Jesus as King at the end of time. The river (which flowed from His side) is the connecting link:

And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND Lord OF LordS. (Revelation 19:16)

There would be no connection from Orion to the Horologium clock if Jesus had not given His life. His sacrifice made Him worthy to receive power. The same applies in a similar way to the rest of mankind: those who follow the sacrificial way of faith like Abraham did will partake of the blessing God promised him:

And the angel of the Lord called unto Abraham out of heaven the second time, And said, By myself have I sworn, saith the Lord, for because thou hast done this thing, and hast not withheld thy son, thine only son: That in blessing I will bless thee, and in multiplying I will multiply thy seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand which is upon the sea shore; and thy seed shall possess the gate of his enemies; And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; because thou hast obeyed my voice. (Genesis 22:15-18)

Here in the story of Abraham, we find an illustration of what Revelation says about God’s people who testify that His sacrificial Spirit is active within them.

And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death. (Revelation 12:11)

Abraham was counted worthy of inheriting heaven and earth because he sacrificed. Have you traveled that Way? Has the word of your testimony of faith been one of sacrificial victory in Christ?

Understanding what gives Jesus the right to receive all power, we can now answer definitively what His office truly is: He is the One who took the hit for our sin. He was and will always be “the Wounded One” whose marks will remain for all eternity. The full seal—name, office, territory—is therefore “Alnitak, the Wounded One of Orion.”

The three main constellations of the sign of the Son of man (Orion, Eridanus, Horologium) all represent time in some form. Orion is the hourglass, representing the beginning of time or time past. Eridanus is the river, representing the flow of time, or time present. And the Horologium clock represents the end of time, or time to come. God is Time, and Jesus sits on the Father’s throne.

I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty. (Revelation 1:8)

Now do you understand why the Lord led us to understand the Sign of the Son of Man to be the essence of a black hole—those places in the universe where space and time converge in a singularity that describes the nature of God, who is Time and omnipresent in the Spirit. It was indeed the Lord who led us to understand this as the small black cloud that was coming closer to earth. In April of 2019, we eagerly watched the televised revelation of the first black hole ever directly observed—M87. It was given the Hawaiian name, POWEHI, meaning “the adorned fathomless dark creation”—a fitting name for the Creator who is unsearchable in wisdom^[10] and shrouded in darkness.^[11] Since it refers to the name of the eternal I AM, we write it in the same form with all caps.

But these things were just distant glimpses, not well-resolved, of His majestic form. The small black cloud would draw closer to the earth. We anticipated that soon, the black hole at the center of our Milky Way would be revealed—far closer than the 54 million light-years of M87. While it took longer than was expected, the first image of Sagittarius A* was revealed on May 12, 2022—the center of gravity for the holy celestial city—and three bright smudges could be easily seen like three perspectives of the Eternal, “which is, and which was, and which is to come.” What would be the next closest place to find a black hole? Was it one discovered in Orion, or could it be that “Planet X” was really a tiny black hole lurking right here in our own solar system?

Now we see what the black holes were leading up to, since we can see the cloud much more closely through the two comets in our own solar system against the backdrop of the constellations (whose stars are themselves far closer than Sagittarius A*). No longer three blurry bright spots, we see Jesus depicted in three distinct constellations of time.

This truth is described in heaven and signed by the Alpha and Omega through the timely movement of the two comets K2 and E3. This is the seal of Time that is to be inscribed on the foreheads of God’s people.

Is the seal on your frontal lobe? Is Time on your mind? Have you asked your own question of “how long?” Is the time of Christ’s return informing your judgment and directing your executive functions?

May it be from this day forward that you take Time seriously. Use every moment wisely, to bring the message of Alnitak, the Wounded One of Orion, to the world. Don’t worry about those who reject it; the men with the slaughter weapons will follow soon enough.^[12] But you must offer a gift of sacrifice if you are to be found worthy to partake with Abraham in the inheritance of the sands of the sea shore and the stars of heaven. All you have to do is follow the river in faith. You must travel with the comets (the stars) to the Orion Nebula (the sands at the sea of glass).

It does not matter if you came from the Orion message in 2010 like we did, and arrived to this day of the Lord in the Horologium (like the course of comet E3), or if you are starting this day in the time of the Horologium clock and discovering the way back to Jesus, the Wounded One in Orion (like the course of comet K2). Either way, you will follow the river of life which represents the character formation necessary for heaven.^[13] And along that journey, as you are baptized into Christ’s sacrifice and sealed by the Holy Spirit of Time, you are accompanied by the Man who gave everything for you. The church of Philadelphia thus knows Jesus as a Friend.

Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you. (John 15:15)
