A war in Israel has officially begun,^[1] and the ship of the church-state system on earth is caught in the storm. Four times, cometary angels have visited our skies, and the wrath of God has been felt on earth as four compounding plagues. Now the fifth is coming against the ship. In Independence Day, comet C/2023 A2 (SWAN) marked the fourth plague of scorching heat^[2] that the world has been enduring, with “global boiling”^[3] pushing the agenda for men to blaspheme God through climate action to save the earth, rather than turning to Christ as our Savior and recognizing the climate problems as His work of judging sin at His coming.

Not only was the sun literally plaguing people this summer, but the deadly LGBT and Woke doctrine is spreading throughout all organized churches, leading them to the ashen fate of Sodom and Gomorrah. Presently, comet C/2022 E3 (ZTF)—the cometary actor for the wheat harvest that visits the constellations for the churches in the sign of the Son of man—is approaching a close conjunction with the star, Canopus on October 12/13, 2023. This is the second-brightest star in the night sky, named after the pilot of a legendary mission by sea to rescue Helen of Troy, and positioned at the rudder of Argo Navis, the heavenly ship. What will upcoming events reveal about the course of the celestial church-state ship that was identified as being under the control of Satan with his all-seeing, evil eye of CBDC enslavement? It is worth noting that just as comet E3 crossed the dividing line between the two parts of the ship on October 7, 2023, so was the dividing wall between Gaza and Israel breached by a coordinated Hamas militant attack.

As we continue to explore some of the waymarks that God is pointing out with two companion comets that are relevant to the plagues, we will see how the war between Israel and Hamas is serving as the Lord’s megaphone, calling the church to take urgent action. The heavens often give some interesting hints, but the times marked by these comets are only supplementary to alert watchfulness of earthly events, and serve to confirm the fulfillment of prophecy. Therefore, for future events, watching with the understanding of the time allows us to recognize the deeper significance of the heavenly story that cannot be known in advance.

Now I tell you before it come, that, when it is come to pass, ye may believe that I am he. (John 13:19)

As the events unfold on earth, we may compare with what God has indicated in heaven, and with the validation that the heavens provide, we may believe that the sign of the great fish is indeed the sign of the Son of man.

The approach of comet E3 to the rudder of the ship comes just as another cometary messenger and companion to the fourth plague comet, is about to signal the outpouring of the fifth. It is high time to escape the kingdom of darkness before it meets its tragic fate as this companion comet fulfills the work of the next plague angel who brings darkness upon the kingdom of the beast.

Follow the Holy Spirit, who appears as the dove (Columba), leading the flight from the ship into the Sign of the son of man, where there is safety in the ark of truth. The sin-laden Great Babylon is about to sink, but by repentance one may escape, as it is written in the letters to the seven churches—especially the church of Thyatira, which is represented by Argo Navis. The church-state ship was hijacked long ago and must finally be abandoned now.^[4] Renounce the traditions and commandments of men that deceive those aboard and instead choose to live according to the word of God. The urgency of the Lord’s call continues to increase:

And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues. For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities. (Revelation 18:4-5)

Angels of Destruction

As two angels came and took Lot by the hand to bring him out of Sodom before he perished with it, so today, two cometary angels have come to execute judgment against the immoral city of ease and bring the righteous few out of danger. God ordained the trajectories of these comets to show the danger ahead. Comet C/2023 A2 (SWAN), which forewarned of the scorching heat of the fourth plague, explained in the Independence Day article, has been coursing freely through the ship since then, but it crosses one constellation line before exiting. That signal of judgment for the heavenly church-state ship comes on October 17, 2023, which is the divinely appointed day for the feast of trumpets!^[5] 

We will not speculate on what developments may take place at that time, but the sounds from the seventh trumpet as described in A Time to Reign, include those events that occur within its “mouthpiece” from August 30 – October 20, 2023. This includes not only the BRICS threat against the US, but also the ongoing Catholic synod and the beginning of the Israel war with Hamas on October 7, 2023. This seems to specify some key issues to watch how they develop. Indeed, even in the text of the seventh trumpet, represented in the path of comet K2, we can see a foretaste of what is to come in the seventh plague.

The temple of God has been opened and the ark of the sign of the Son of man, wherein His testament is seen, sounds the voices and roaring thunders of the seventh trumpet in warning of that which is soon to come, when the hail of Gazan rockets becomes an exceedingly great hail of something much more destructive, like nuclear warheads (for example).

The comet crosses the constellation boundary as it leaves Argo Navis on November 16, 2023, the beginning of the next Hebrew month, and enters the constellation Chamaeleon. This lizard, best known for its ability to adapt its color to blend in with its environment, could signal a time that leads many professed Christians to lose their distinct characteristics and blend into the world for fear of the consequences. Let God’s people not fear to stand for the truth, even against the tide of worldly opinion, lest they be arraigned for treason against the Lord!

They have dealt treacherously against the Lord: for they have begotten strange children: now shall a month devour them with their portions. (Hosea 5:7)

Thus, one angel gives his account of the status of the ship and its members. But the second cometary angel, Comet C/2023 A1 (Leonard), also illustrates God’s wrath against the NWO church-state ship. While comet A2 came from Orion’s hand, the trajectory of A1 originates from the hand of Aquarius, indicating its complementary role in the divine mission of rescue and destruction. Could it be the harbinger of the fifth plague? The date when it crosses the border into the ship is revealing: October 14, 2023.

Exactly on this day, in North (and South) America, an annular solar eclipse will darken the New World. In fact, it is the first of two eclipses that form an X over the United States within the span of six months, as though using this ring-of-fire to reiterate the seven-year warning proclamation of God’s wrath that began with the eclipse of 2017, also forming an X over that nation.

And the fifth angel poured out his vial upon the seat of the beast; and his kingdom was full of darkness; and they gnawed their tongues for pain, (Revelation 16:10)

How will the kingdom be darkened? Will the winds of war blow and drive the governmental ship into a winter energy crisis? Will the Catholic Synod that will be deep in its 25-day session darken the religious kingdom with a sinister change of course? Will the Israeli war explode in greater depths of darkness? Or is it an indication that with the events of that day the kingdom’s dark cup of iniquity will finally be full, and the earth ready to be gathered to Armageddon for retribution in the seventh plague? Time will tell, but it is worthy to note that on October 29, 2023 (the last day of the Catholic Synod when a press release could be expected), the comet crosses the first of three constellation lines on its course through the ship.

As it crosses the line, it meets with a star that is associated with the changing weather and strong winds. This star is called Suhail, short for Al Suhail Al Wazn, an Arabic phrase meaning something like “easy weight.” Is this a reference to Jesus’ easy burden^[6] or another? There may be an indication as we continue to explore this comet’s path. On November 25, the comet crosses a constellation line beside Alsephina, which connects it to the star Markab.

We can glean the following hint about the meaning from Constellations of Words:

The Arabians called it AlSafinah, a Ship, and Markab, something to ride upon, that two or three centuries ago in Europe were transcribed Alsephina and Merkeb.^[7] 

The name of the star Markab brings us back to the Bible:

And the fifth angel poured out his vial upon the seat of the beast; and his kingdom was full of darkness… (From Revelation 16:10)

The fifth plague is poured out upon the beast’s “seat” (Markab = something to ride upon)! Furthermore, in case there is doubt about who is riding this seat, notice that Alsephina, where the comet passes, is part of an asterism known as the False Cross.

Thus, this star where the comet enters the constellation of Carina (still part of the ship) identifies what banner this ship sails under, and whose seat is to be plagued. This ship is sailing under the banner of the false cross of Satan. In mimicry of God, the throne of his kingdom is also divided threefold, and while it is rare for a comet to fly so near a bright star, Comet A1 flies very close beside not one or two, but three stars—all part of the ship! Is God pointing to Satan’s rule by the counterfeit trinity mentioned in the sixth plague?

• The dragon,

• The beast, and

• The false prophet.

We have understood these entities to represent, respectively, the following:

• The pope as Satan (ruling through his religious and political influence), and

• The UN conglomerate of nations (ruling through its human rights laws and Woke ideology),

• The US as the fallen Protestant nation (ruling through force and the power of money).

The third star of the ship that the comet brushes against, called Avior, is used in marine navigation and is reached on December 9, 2023. The name is of Hebrew origin and can mean “My father is light” or “The father of light”.^[8] Given that this star forms the foot of the False Cross, this name would seem to suggest the dark lord who transforms himself into an angel of light.

For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. (2 Corinthians 11:13-14)

A Burden of Blasphemy

In the present context, it is clear who drives this ship. It has the false cross on board, Satan’s wind in its sail, and the hull that is formed by the two constellations, Carina and Puppis, represents the church-state union that is actuated by Satan himself. The Lord carefully directed comet A1 to brush past three bright stars of this ship to highlight the false Luciferian trinity who seeks to rule the global union.

The light-bearing kingdom will be darkened, and darkness renders one unable to navigate. This effect on mobility also characterized the darkness that fell over Egypt:

And Moses stretched forth his hand toward heaven; and there was a thick darkness in all the land of Egypt three days: They saw not one another, neither rose any from his place for three days: but all the children of Israel had light in their dwellings. (Exodus 10:22-23)

Exactly how such restriction of movement could be understood today will become clearer as time unfolds. However, since the fifth plague references the pains of the first plague, which we have found to correspond to the COVID crisis, it is not unthinkable that restriction of movement (i.e., lockdowns) could be required again—perhaps for different reasons (such as martial law if war has spread or climate change related restrictions).

Interestingly, the lockdowns during the COVID crisis brought an indirect crisis upon all the churches of the world. Many churchgoers could not attend, and just like their worldly brothers, they were quick to get vaccinated as soon as possible in order to return to their friends, and thus received the number of the beast.

Not all were so quick, however. Many people who kept themselves unvaccinated for Christ suffered scorn, ridicule, and even segregation in the pews from their vaccinated “brothers and sisters in faith.” But can they be rightly called “brethren” who esteem God’s works so little that they would thoughtlessly take a genetically-engineered vaccine before praying for God’s protection through the storm, come what may?

Certainly, the “easy weight” of the first star the comet meets is no reference to Jesus’ light burden and easy yoke but points instead to the easy way of the popular false cross (below, right), which is sometimes mistaken for the true Southern Cross (left).

Nevertheless, a cross is a burden, even if it is a false cross. What is the burden that the world lays upon the population? Many have shown their willingness to sacrifice privacy as a cross for the sake of a hope for health, peace and security. Weren’t the lockdowns, facemasks, and vaccinations a cross to be borne apparently for the altruistic goals of protecting society and preserving health security? But this is not comparable to the cross of our Lord, who gave Himself for the eternal wellbeing of others!

In Satan’s kingdom, the burden is promised to be easy, but it takes a heavy toll,^[9] and robs one of their eternal lives and their rest in Christ. In God’s kingdom, the yoke is easy because He bears our spiritual burden of sin and guilt Himself. He is our Navigator^[10] and the Light of our way,^[11] and He guides us through the troubled seas such that whether in life or death, our witness is such as will lead others to Christ and His gift of true, internal peace and eternal life.

To bear the false cross is to blaspheme God, because the bearers seek to save themselves with their own sacrifices. But those sacrifices—such as the sacrifice of carbon fuels to (as is supposed) reduce global warming—will not save the planet.

And blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores, and repented not of their deeds. (Revelation 16:11)

This reference to the first plague identifies those who thus blaspheme:

And the first went, and poured out his vial upon the earth; and there fell a noisome and grievous sore [noted in the fifth plague] upon the men which had the mark of the beast, and upon them which worshipped his image. (Revelation 16:2)

Instead of acknowledging the outpouring of the plagues as recompense from God to bring the people to repentance, the pope’s climate-change magicians throughout the world chant a Godless explanation, and the people of the kingdom of the beast are further hardened in their hearts like Pharaoh. They rally the people to reduce emissions, etc. to save planet earth from the plagues, which are but consequences of the leaders’ refusal to let God’s people go free from their tyrannical, big-brother oversight!

With his new apostolic exhortation, the pope has emphasized his intent that the world is held accountable for meeting climate objectives, and lamented the lack of progress that the COP climate conferences have made. He puts significant pressure on the upcoming COP28 in the UAE that is scheduled to take place from November 30 to December 12:

This Conference can represent a change of direction, showing that everything done since 1992 was in fact serious and worth the effort, or else it will be a great disappointment and jeopardize whatever good has been achieved thus far.

To put this in a biblical context, consider that the harvest angel that came out from the altar and announced his observation that the grapes are ready for the harvest,^[12] crossed the river Eridanus on the day that this exhortation was published.^[13] 

While it remains to be seen what will become of this, the occurrence of the COP28 conference while the comet is in the first leg within the furnace could suggest a “preheating phase” for implementing enforceable goals for climate action as the pope desires. More severe trials would follow in the second leg. Note how he casts the 2015 Paris agreement in an insufficient light for not going far enough to take firm control of enforcement:

Albeit a binding agreement, not all its dispositions are obligations in the strict sense, and some of them leave ample room for discretion. In any case, properly speaking, there are no provisions for sanctions in the case of unfulfilled commitments, nor effective instruments to ensure their fulfilment. It also provides for a certain flexibility in the case of developing countries.

By taking it into their own hands to save the world instead of looking up to the Savior who has promised to make all things new,^[14] the world blasphemes the God of heaven, who has power over the plagues. Both the fourth and fifth plagues mention their blasphemy, because the two cometary messengers that announce those plagues hail respectively from Orion (A2 with the fourth plague) and Aquarius (A1 with the fifth plague), which represent Jesus and God Father.

Man’s sin has corrupted the planet, and God is pouring out His sovereign judgments upon the unrepentant. The only route to safety is the route to the end-time ark of Noah, which is the way of repentance. To the biblical church that the ship represents (Thyatira), Jesus gave a strong warning to repent or face great tribulation:

And I gave her space to repent of her fornication [joining herself to the errant policies of the triune satanic union mentioned earlier]; and she repented not. Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation, except they repent of their deeds. (Revelation 2:21-22)

Should we expect that a new variant of virus will come into effect, or that the negative physical effects of vaccinations receive greater attention? Time will tell. But we can see that the liberal course of the ship, whether political or religious, leads into the realm of the darkness of the second death.

Angels of Rescue

After some interactions between the two comets during the world’s Christmas season, comet A1 leaves the constellations of Argo Navis just as 2023 comes to a close and people begin to gather for fireworks in the evening of December 31, 2023:

This could suggest a fulfillment of the prophecy that man’s feasts (of which none are more popular than the Christmas/New Year’s pair) will be turned into mourning, which comes after God said He would darken the earth at noon. This is highly suggestive of the solar eclipse over the US shortly before the commercial Christmas season begins:

And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Lord God, that I will cause the sun to go down at noon, and I will darken the earth in the clear day: And I will turn your feasts into mourning, and all your songs into lamentation; and I will bring up sackcloth upon all loins, and baldness upon every head; and I will make it as the mourning of an only son, and the end thereof as a bitter day. (Amos 8:9-10)

What will Monday, January 1, and the ensuing year of 2024 bring to the world? The sign does not give many clues up-front, but as Jesus said,

And now I have told you [the time, in our case] before it come to pass, that, when it is come to pass, ye might believe. (John 14:29)

God has given ample warning to break association with the powers of evil. The plagues are not intended to harm God’s people. On the contrary, just as it was in the time of Israel’s exodus from Egypt, the people of God will be delivered again by a great deliverance, as the sign of the Son of man signifies through the imagery of the great fish. When you break your connections to the ungodly world around you, it might feel a bit like Jonah asking to be thrown overboard in the stormy waters—an act expected to result in certain death. God brings judgment on the world not only to punish, but as He did through Jonah, to draw attention to Himself as the Creator who holds the power over the natural elements in His hands to use at His will.

With God, even the worst storms of life are under His control, and He will protect His children through them. He prepared a “great fish” to rescue Jonah whom He chose to warn the Ninevites, and He has prepared a very great fish—astronomically great—to provide peace in the storm and divine security again today, to those who repent from doing things in their own way and choose instead to do the works of Christ while the kingdom of the beast is darkened under His wrath.

Jonah was running from the Lord—from the voice of the Holy Spirit to his conscience. To rescue him from that state, the Lord saw fit to send a life-threatening storm. Take that to heart and consider your own ways! If you find yourself overpowered by the waves of the storm in your life, it could be that the Lord brought the storm for your sake, because you have been running from Him in your heart. It may seem like the Lord is against you, or that Satan is attacking hard. You may even despair of life and feel it would be better to give up the fight and escape in death. God wants to give you peace, but until you decide to jump ship and give up hope in your own ways, neither you nor those with whom you travel will have peace.

But though it may feel like plunging to your death to stop living by your own understanding, the Lord is waiting to rescue you—only perhaps not in the way you might expect!

Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. (Proverbs 3:5-6)

This is a lesson that comet A1 also teaches:

Those who cease from their own works are represented by this cometary messenger, which sinks from the ship into the sign of the Son of man. And as Lot, who sought out the well-watered land of Sodom for himself, heeded the call to flee in the last moments, this comet crosses within the borders of the great fish on February 15, 2024, shortly before E3 strikes the pendulum hour on February 20, 2024, when the Lord will cast them into great tribulation, who joined themselves to Sodom and its sodomy.

And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she repented not. Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation, except they repent of their deeds. (Revelation 2:21-22)

Both comets A1 and A2 enter the sign of the Son of Man at about the same place in the golden fish, Dorado, which represents those who overcome from the church of Smyrna, to whom Jesus said,

Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days: be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life. (Revelation 2:10)

This could indicate a period of persecution when many who put God’s ways above the demands of man, rescue their eternal lives at the cost of their physical lives.

He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; He that overcometh shall not be hurt of the second death. (Revelation 2:11)

Being that these two cometary messengers (biblically, “angels”) leave the ship and enter the sign of the Son of man, they fulfill the role of harvest angels as was prophesied.

…the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels. (Matthew 13:39)

The angels have come to rescue you from the destruction of God’s wrath that is determined upon the impenitent world which is already plagued with the consequences of its ways. Let them take you to safety in Christ by heeding their urgent call to leave Babylon and enter the ark of truth. It is high time to leave the apostate church organizations that are leading their followers to march under the banner of the beast by accepting his image and number. The cometary messengers represent destruction for the beast and his kingdom but rescue for those who choose to honor God as their Creator, retaining His image and keeping their DNA undefiled. May you be counted among the latter.
