When we read the Revelation of Jesus carefully, we find time and again that some symbolism, which sounds complicated or rather mystifying according to earthly standards, finds its counterpart on the heavenly canvas and can be plainly read there. We long ago deciphered the blueprint of the Orion clock in the throne-room vision,[1] where strange “living beings” are seen positioned around the throne of God, each with a different face, with 24 strange “elders” around them. Since we found the signs in heaven, we also recognize that each of the four beings around the throne indicates a star constellation, too.
The face of the lion points to Leo, the face of the calf to Taurus, the face of the man to Aquarius, and finally the head of the eagle to Scorpio.[2] The trumpets that were given to the angels in heaven[3] are time-markers on the Orion clock in the trumpet cycle, and we know through sun and moon where we have to look to find God’s prophesied heavenly signs.
Without the Orion clock, we would not know when to look up or when a planetary movement is telling a story in one or more signs of the Mazzaroth. Nothing arises by chance, or as the product of human interpretation;[4] they are God’s prophetic words, which become visible reality in the heavens. It is the Creator of the universe who directs His magnificent stars and planets as actors in the heavenly drama. The Divine Director gave the script to the apostle John more than 1900 years ago, so that we could decipher the Author’s handwriting and know when the individual performances would take place, and not to miss them.
The heavenly troupe is not confined to the constellations mentioned above. Other asterisms are also mentioned directly or indirectly in the texts of Revelation. Even the people of the world now see the appearance of the great sign of the woman of Revelation 12 in Virgo and her crown of stars in Leo.[5]
We realized that God uses the planets to tell biblical stories. Thus, e.g. the Divine Producer chose Jupiter to recount the pregnancy of the virgin Mary. Mars, Venus, and Mercury are to place the crown of 12 stars on the “pure woman” in the visible heavens on September 23, 2017.
As is usual with actors, one does not always play the same character. Thus, after completing his role as a star in the crown of the virgin, Mercury dashes over to the new-born royal heir, Jupiter, where he assumes a new role in a completely different biblical narrative. This time, the scene is titled “The Fifth Trumpet.” Mercury, now in the role of the divine messenger, takes from the royal heir Jupiter the key to the abyss with its Milky-Way smoke, and receives the command to hurry to the lord of the harvest of bad grapes,[6] and hand the key over to him. Saturn is allowed to play the role of this evil ruler, who frees the scorpions to torment the people for five months. We have already seen the extras and the order of their appearance: Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, Pisces, and Aries.[7]
The closer we get to the grand finale of the heavenly performance, the more we recognize that everything represents one great, complete story, of which we see only parts, and where the actors often take on new roles. We see individual episodes of a great whole. The complete work is called “The Revelation of Jesus Christ.”[8]
Let’s continue where we left off in the last part of this series. There are still a lot of details that we have not yet seen in that episode of the heavenly play. One storyline that runs throughout is the story of the dragon, which always appears in new costumes, usually disguised as other “beasts.” Just as the devil was once in the serpent of the Garden of Eden, the fallen star Lucifer makes use of various disguises, but we are able to see through them. However, the audience has to actively participate in the action and stay alert! He must not allow himself to be distracted, otherwise he will miss the point and get caught in the snare.
The original character of Satan, without any mask, was already mentioned in the chapter The Red Dragon.[9] There, he was the constellation Draco, the dragon of Revelation 12, which received 10 horns and 7 heads in the heavens through two other neighboring constellations: Boötes (the bear-keeper) and Coronis Borealis (the northern crown). The 10 horns, of course, have an earthly counterpart, and were the 10 nations (of the Old World, Europe), into which the Roman empire fell. They were, however, dominated again shortly afterwards by the dragon through the first beast of Revelation 13, to whom the dragon gave all his power.
And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority. (Revelation 13:2)
Those who have been paying attention now also know why the dragon, who is the same dragon from Revelation 12, has seven heads. Serious Bible students know the four world kingdoms of Daniel 7, which are represented by animals. Let us count their heads together:
Daniel spake and said, I saw in my vision by night, and, behold, the four winds of the heaven strove upon the great sea. And four great beasts came up from the sea, diverse one from another. The first was like a lion [1st head], and had eagle’s wings: I beheld till the wings thereof were plucked, and it was lifted up from the earth, and made stand upon the feet as a man, and a man’s heart was given to it. And behold another beast, a second, like to a bear [2nd head], and it raised up itself on one side, and it had three ribs in the mouth of it between the teeth of it: and they said thus unto it, Arise, devour much flesh. After this I beheld, and lo another, like a leopard, which had upon the back of it four wings of a fowl; the beast had also four heads [3rd to 6th head]; and dominion was given to it. After this I saw in the night visions, and behold a fourth beast [7th head], dreadful and terrible, and strong exceedingly; and it had great iron teeth: it devoured and brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with the feet of it: and it was diverse from all the beasts that were before it; and it had ten horns. (Daniel 7:2-7)
So, if you take these animals together, as the Lord demonstrates for us, then we get an overall animal that has 7 heads and 10 horns: the dragon of Revelation 12 and 13!
In order to fully understand the animals that the first beast of Revelation 13 is composed of, the Lord showed it to his servant John: And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion (from Revelation 13:2). Which of the animals of Daniel 7 is NOT part of the first beast? The fourth animal, which was so dreadful in appearance. It was the pagan Roman Empire, which had ceased to exist.
The dragon continues to exist, however, albeit in secret. He acts through his first beast, the papacy. This animal has been given great new power since its setback in the time of Napoleon, which we can all testify to. And last but not least, in the year 2013 Satan personally sat on the seat of the Pontifex Maximus, a title which all popes bear, following in line with the Roman emperors who had this title, since they are nothing other than their successors. It is only a question of when and how he will extend his rule over the whole world, like he has been planning since time immemorial, because he knows that he has but a short time.[10]
God tells us that he gets a mighty helper. The second beast of Revelation 13, the USA, is also influenced by the dragon and secretly controlled behind the scenes:
And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon. And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed. (Revelation 13:11-12)
The mystery of the when and how of the dragon’s assumption of power—and thus his return to the throne of the whole earth—lies in the solution to the most enigmatic chapter in the entire Revelation: the 17th. No, it isn’t any coincidence that we are in the year 2017, because we have now been able to solve it completely. On August 11, 2017, I received the last piece of information from God to write this last article of this series. It happened after much prayer and intensive study. A person doesn’t just so quickly solve a riddle that could not be cracked for almost 2000 years.
This chapter doesn’t present us with a single riddle; it’s a whole riddle-book! We must proceed one step at a time to reveal all the many small and great secrets in this book.
Let’s begin with the first verses of the chapter. There, a wicked woman on a bad animal is presented.
And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will shew unto thee the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters: (Revelation 17:1)
The seven vials are, of course, in the possession of the seven angels with the seven plagues. The angel who shows John all these secrets is very likely the angel of the seventh plague, which, as we can see from the Orion clock, is also the angel of the first plague. So he has a special position.
A little later we learn that this whore has a name:
And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH. (Revelation 17:5)
She is called Babylon, and anyone who doesn’t know what or who the whore of Babylon is, and gets involved with her, becomes one flesh with her.
What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh. (1 Corinthians 6:16)
Pay attention! The whore is not just a single whore! She is the mother of ALL whores! So she has daughters! Do you know the daughters of the Roman Catholic Church, who once rebelled and left their mother? She now welcomes them with arms open wide on their way back to her brothel with the big red “VATICAN” sign! Are you one flesh with her, or one of her daughters? A tenfold woe to you, Adventist church. You are the most hypocritical daughter of your great mother-whore Babylon!
The divine judgment upon the whore of Babylon, which is also the great city, will be carried out in the seventh plague:
And the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell: and great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath. (Revelation 16:19)
What it means that the great mother whore sits on many waters is nothing new in itself. The reformers already knew what the following explanation of Jesus meant:
And he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues. (Revelation 17:15)
There is only one continent on earth that fits the description of a sea of peoples with many nations and languages: Europe. And the Roman church, as its name implies, sits in the middle of Rome. The whole “boot” of Italy is surrounded by the Mediterranean—that is, many waters—a clear and distinct picture that can describe no other great church of the world.
The Roman church is known for its incredible wealth, and its transactions with the nations go far beyond the scale of selling little sacred statues. It is known that the Vatican is involved in arms trafficking.[11] Some even suspect far worse things. That is why there is a whole chapter about the lamenting of the merchants, when the mighty city of whoredom has been destroyed. Read Chapter 18 of Revelation for yourself!
In Revelation 17, we already find out enough for my topic:
With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication. (Revelation 17:2)
The whore dresses according to her wealth and has the cup with the poison in her hand...
And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication: (Revelation 17:4)
Now it’s time to pull back the heavenly curtains and dim the lights. Get your popcorn ready and maybe a glass of pure, fresh water. You may have to swallow hard when you see how and when the great whore puts on her jewelry.
Did you see how the heavenly diva slipped into her new role? Out of the great dear woman of Revelation 12 suddenly came the horrible great whore, “Babylon.” The transformation takes place without being noticed by a large part of the Christian world, which is “foolishly” only waiting for its cheap rapture-escape to come when the “great sign” reaches its fullness on September 23, 2017.
No, it’s still far from reaching its true fullness. We have seen just the beginning of the grand finale. The big showdown still awaits us when the fifth trumpet sounds with its first woe, and we recognize what the woman “rides.” And remember, the diva is always the same person, even when she changes costumes!
We have seen the whore sitting on many waters, or better said lying. Parallel to her, Hydra, the water snake, swims in the imaginary waters of a heavenly river. The Greek word for “sitteth” used here is kathēmai [Strongs G2521], which can also be generally interpreted as “remain” or “reside.” She is therefore “upon” or “on” or “over” many waters, depending on the Bible translation, and thus does not necessarily “sit” on them.
The apostle John, however, also saw her “sitting” on an animal. He uses the same Greek word here, but it does not make any sense to translate it so that the woman is “beside” an animal. In the astronomical sense, of course, it makes more sense to translate the verb as “being situated over,” because the constellations do not overlap (at least not generally). The symbolic meaning behind it is, of course, the meaning of “riding,” or better said “steering” the animal, but the original text does not say that the woman must necessarily be sitting on the animal. She can also just reside upon or over it!
So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns. (Revelation 17:3)
The next verse speaks of the woman being carried by the beast. This does not necessarily mean that she rides the animal in a sitting position. She could be on it just like how some circus performers do with horses.
And the angel said unto me, Wherefore didst thou marvel? I will tell thee the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that carrieth her, which hath the seven heads and ten horns. (Revelation 17:7)
Unfortunately, Virgo doesn’t stand in the constellations with her feet on a “scarlet colored beast,” but on the constellation of Libra! Something must be wrong—and it really is.
Libra (the scales, or balance) as a constellation is essentially an invention of the Romans, making the deciphering of the relevant Bible passages even more difficult than it already was.
What would we do without Wikipedia!? There we learn that Libra was already so named in antiquity, but also that by far not everyone saw it that way:
Libra was known in Babylonian astronomy as MUL Zibanu (the “scales” or “balance”), or alternatively as the Claws of the Scorpion… It was also seen as the Scorpion’s Claws in ancient Greece.
In Arabic zubana means “scorpion’s claws”, and likely similarly in other Semitic languages…
It only became a constellation in ancient Rome, when it began to represent the scales held by Astraea, the goddess of justice, associated with Virgo in the Greek mythology.
Alpha Librae, called Zubenelgenubi…means “the southern claw”. Zubeneschamali (Beta Librae) is the corresponding “northern claw” to Zubenelgenubi… Gamma Librae is called Zubenelakrab, which means “the scorpion’s claw”, completing the suite of names referring to Libra’s archaic status.
We are interested in the classification of the starry heavens according to the Babylonians, because the Israelites were captive there and adopted much of their astronomical knowledge, and, of course, the wise men of the east, the Arabian astronomers. According to both views, there was no constellation “Libra,” but only one large scorpion, which had two long claws.
The image at right shows both ideas drawn one on top of the other. According to the scorpion-only view, “the virgin” stands on top of the scorpion, or its claws. You can even see her sandals in the picture.
Now we see the virgin and the scorpion juxtaposed on the heavenly stage. Thus, after the sun forms the great sign of the woman on September 23, 2017 and the sign of the whore around October 17, 2017, it wanders through the rest of Virgo and through a great part of the original scorpion by the time we reach the beginning of the fifth trumpet on December 5, 2017 and the sun is directly over the head of the original scorpion. This heavenly situation is our next interest: the beginning of the fifth trumpet, with the opening of the bottomless pit, out of which come the locust-like creatures.
We must learn as much as we can about Virgo’s “riding animal” to finally understand the prophecy in Revelation 17. Here is the next reference in the Word of God, where we can learn more about the beast of Revelation 17...
The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is. (Revelation 17:8)
We already saw in the previous part that this verse connects the beast of Revelation 17 with the fifth trumpet of Revelation 9. In both passages of the Bible, one or more beasts emerge from the bottomless pit. In Revelation 9, they are locusts, which have a terrible appearance. For their description, they immediately remind us of the chimera of Revelation 13, which was already a conglomerate “beast” that Satan set up for his purposes.
We hope that by analyzing the locusts that come from the smoke of the furnace in Revelation 9, we will finally understand what comes out of the bottomless pit in Revelation 17.
We have to proceed little by little, examining every feature of the “beasts” that God describes to us, so that we don’t overlook anything. The text in Revelation 17 is sparse when it comes to features. We only find that the animal was, is, and comes out of the bottomless pit, and that it is “scarlet” colored. But where does the “scarlet” color of the scorpions come from, if the text of Revelation 17:3 is referring to this heavenly situation?
Here’s another short video…
Now you have seen another detail with your own eyes. You now know where the scorpions, coming from the smoke of the furnace, have their iron breastplates of Revelation 9:9. They are a divine reference to the mixing of the constellation of Scorpio with that of Libra, and reflect the different views. Of course, the weight of the symbolism is clearly toward the scorpion, since it occurs in both views.
When it comes to the riding animal of the whore, Revelation 17 mentions the two characteristics of the red dragon of Revelation 12 and 13: seven heads and ten horns. Before we figure out where they are and begin to solve one of the really great riddles that no one has been able to solve in 2000 years, we should take a much closer look at the locusts of Revelation 9.
Let’s turn our eyes toward heaven again. Perhaps there we’ll find a hint that will help us!? The description of the locusts does not stop when the first verses talk about their resemblance to scorpions.[12]
The locust-like beasts go into a second phase, as they do in real life,[13] and after the first description of plain scorpions, which hurt with their stingers for five months, we come to a description of a species of animal the classification of which eludes every zoologist…
And the shapes of the locusts were like unto horses prepared unto battle; and on their heads were as it were crowns like gold, and their faces were as the faces of men. And they had hair as the hair of women, and their teeth were as the teeth of lions. And they had breastplates, as it were breastplates of iron [already explained]; and the sound of their wings was as the sound of chariots of many horses running to battle. And they had tails like unto scorpions, and there were stings in their tails: and their power was to hurt men five months. (Revelation 9:7-10)
Here begins the description of the locust species that we see at the beginning of the five months. Can you still remember which Mazzaroth sign comes after the Scorpio and is also in the smoke, but on the other side?
It’s Sagittarius (the archer). This constellation has experienced manifold changes in its appearance through the millennia of mankind’s history, depending on which high culture looked up to him—quite in contrast to Scorpio, whose form was so unambiguous that almost all peoples saw it as a scorpion. In any case, both constellations are also closely linked in mythology. Supposedly, the archer chases the scorpion, who is said to have stabbed Orion. Of course that is humbug and non-biblical...
Immediately we recognize the archer as a centaur. This originates from Greek mythology, and with its horse body, it stands for the horses of verse 9:7. They are “prepared unto battle,” because the arms of the human upper body of the centaur hold a taut bow. On Wikipedia, one possible origin for the name is partly derived from the term “piercing,” which comes very close to the image of the stinging scorpions of the fifth trumpet.
Going step by step, we come to the golden crowns. The Romans understood the constellation of Corona Australis[14] (the southern crown) that is connected to Sagittarius, as the golden crown of Sagittarius (which had fallen from his head).
In the 3rd century BC, the Greek didactic poet Aratus wrote of, but did not name the constellation, instead calling the two crowns Stef (Stephanoi). The Greek astronomer Ptolemy described the constellation in the 2nd century AD, though with the inclusion of Alpha Telescopii, since transferred to Telescopium. Ascribing 13 stars to the constellation, he named it Stef t (Stephanos notios), “Southern Wreath”, while other authors associated it with either Sagittarius (having fallen off his head) or [distant] Centaurus; with the former, it was called Corona Sagittarii [the crown of Sagittarius]. Similarly, the Romans called Corona Australis the “Golden Crown of Sagittarius”.
The Romans named the southern crown exactly the same way that God refers to it in His Revelation. I find it most remarkable that the crown is indicated as having fallen from the head of this “beast” in the heavens. We know that Satan had the highest position of all created beings in heaven, but his crown fell down as he fell. So it is with the beast that he rides as the whore of Babylon: it “was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit.”
The golden crowns are described in Revelation as being on the head of the attackers. The Bible also speaks of the fact that this chimera, composed of different animals, will regain the power that it had previously lost.
And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition. And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast. (Revelation 17:11-12)
In the article The Age of Aquarius, Brother Gerhard shows that the group of the most powerful economic powers of the planet, the G20, was prepared by Pope Benedict XVI in order to serve Satan on the throne as an instrument of power. Could this power structure emerge from the smokescreen during the fifth trumpet and start a major attack on those who don’t have the seal of God? To answer this, we need to take a closer look.
The next part of the passage, “their faces were as the faces of men. And they had hair as the hair of women, and their teeth were as the teeth of lions,” must be considered together, or else one will go astray. Centaurs have human faces, of course, and many are represented as having long hair, but no centaur has teeth like those of a lion. There is only one mythological being that fulfills all three criteria for the head, and also brings the tail of a scorpion tail and stinger with it:
Wikipedia describes the Manticore as follows:
The manticore (Early Middle Persian Mardyakhor) is a Persian legendary creature similar to the Egyptian sphinx. It has the body of a lion, a human head with three rows of sharp teeth (like a shark), and sometimes bat-like wings. Other aspects of the creature vary from story to story. It may be horned, winged, or both. The tail is that of either a dragon or a scorpion, and it may shoot venomous spines [thus the analogy to Sagittarius] to either paralyze or kill its victims. It devours its prey whole and leaves no clothes, bones, or possessions of the prey behind.
Its origin and history:
The Manticore myth was of Persian origin, where its name was “man-eater”…
The German version of the Wikipedia entry also includes the following:
In the Middle Ages, the manticore became the symbol of tyranny, oppression, and envy, and finally the embodiment of evil. [Translated]
Our research has now brought us from Rome and Greece to Persia. Then we are really only missing Babylon if we want to complete Daniel’s world empires[15] in one animal. The manticore is sometimes represented with wings, but rarely. There is, however, a Babylonian god, Pabilsag, who also had a scorpion’s tail (among others) and in many aspects corresponds perfectly to the biblical description.
Sagittarius was a constellation in Babylonian astronomy for more than three thousand years and was later adopted by the ancient Greeks. It could have been connected with the god Nergal. But the MUL.APIN Babylonian star catalog identifies Nergal with the planet Mars, and Sagittarius with the god Pabilsag.[16] It can be noted that he has two different types of heads (dog and mask), a horse body, wings, and a scorpion’s tail.
Thus we have found the oldest source for the constellation, at least in the cultures that interest us biblically as the world empires of Daniel.
The diligent student of prophecy has certainly noticed that this chimera, or hybrid creature, represented in the Bible text of the fifth trumpet, now reflects the four world empires of Daniel 7 through the deciphering of its individual beings, and all this comes together in the constellation of Sagittarius. What emerges from the bottomless pit in the second phase of the locusts is a man-eating and sex-obsessed monster beyond comparison!
There we have the terrible god of the Babylonians, Pabilsag, who stands for fertility and licentiousness. We saw his erect part in the picture. Then there was the man-eating manticore of Persia, where Iran is today, which is probably the top state for radical Islam in the world.[17] And the Greco-Roman Sagittarius with his centaur body and the stretched bow represents a whole army of rushing warriors in chariots. The combination of the upper body of an archer with the horse’s rump is nothing but an allegory for the combination of horses, chariots, and human handlers and archers, which began with the Egyptians and continued into the time of the Romans.[18]
We already found the golden crown of Sagittarius in the last chapter. However, it is portrayed as a laurel wreath, and such a thing is not necessarily golden. Corona Australis (the southern crown) is the counterpart to Corona Borealis (the northern) and is waiting to be put back on the head of the god Pabilsag.
Corona Borealis consists of seven stars, which signify the seven heads of the dragon. Since the constellation itself is a “crown,” it is legitimate to understand this combination as the seven crowned heads in the constellation of Draco, and therefore we connect them with the following text:
And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads. (Revelation 12:3)
Hydra then brought along the eighth head of Revelation 17:11, during the dragon’s attack in the third trumpet.
And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition. (Revelation 17:11)
In my Lord’s Supper sermon, I interpreted Hydra as this beast, and since it is obviously swimming in many waters, it is actually the beast which is “ridden” by Virgo in the third trumpet. It also brings the wormwood of this trumpet in the cup above its gallbladder. It was also one of the seven other heads that for a long time we interpreted as the seven popes since 1929, when the wound of the papacy began to heal again. So Pope Benedict and Pope Francis are now the two heads that have regrown at the end of time, and both came from the Hydra’s severed head (Pope Pius VI in 1798).
That interpretation is true for the third trumpet, but it has weaknesses. The seven heads are not visible in the constellation of Hydra, which is somewhat acceptable, though, since the text actually says that only “one is.”
And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space. (Revelation 17:10)
But who is to come after Hydra, if it already is the head that is? Where are the seven mountains that are seven kings? And where are the ten horns that are yet to play an important role?
And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast. (Revelation 17:12)
On the other hand, if we look for the ten horns on our second-phase locusts at the beginning of the fifth trumpet, we will find them...
Do you see how the fifth trumpet becomes more alive and understandable in the heavens? God clearly refers to certain heavenly regions and names the times when a show takes place there. If we pay close attention, then we can learn even more from it than what is stated in the text. For example, we now have the important date of January 1, 2018 as the date of the transfer of power of the “10 horns” or nations, the G20 or the UN, to the “beast” that rises out of the bottomless pit again.
Another great mystery is hidden in the text of Revelation 17, which I had to ponder over for a long time. It was only when I wrote this part that the Lord answered my prayers for more light.
It is about the part of the text of Revelation 17:12 that speaks of the 10 horns that “receive power as kings one hour with the beast.”
For years, we have been thinking about the time period or date of the “one hour.” There is no preposition in the text to help us. It can mean “for an hour” as well as “in an hour” or “during an hour.” Most translators therefore leave it out. In general, however, it is understood as a time limit.
According to prophetic time, which only a few Protestant churches know about, it would be 15 days.[19] That would be a little short after all we know about the end-time events.
According to the judgment cycle of the Orion clock, it would be 7 years, but that would be too long, since we know that Jesus will already have returned in May, 2019,[20] and the power of these 10 horns and the beast will end then, at the latest.
It is only when you look up at the heavens and see how the laurel wreath is placed on the head of the “Sagittarius” and realize that the Mazzaroth (the Jewish zodiac) is also a divine clock,[21] that you can solve the riddle. The sun goes through it in one year and like a normal analog clock, it has markings for the twelve “hours” of a day (and of course also the night), namely the twelve constellations. Now it is clear what this mysterious hour must mean. It is the hour of “Sagittarius,” when the 10 horns receive power with the terrible chimera-beast emerging from the smoke of the bottomless pit: the ancient Roman Empire.
That is why Jesus told us clearly and distinctly:
Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If any man walk in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world. (John 11:9)
Now we are faced with the question of why the power of the 10 horns will only last one hour with the beast. Again, the answer is written in the heavens. The next constellation must be the power that will rule alone. This sequence must unmask the one who will take away the power that it had just given to the 10 kings, to rule the planet all by itself as a totalitarian monarch. I don’t want to expose this tyrant yet, however, but to focus on the golden crown. There is another interesting hint that the pictorial language of God actually refers to the Roman Empire. At the same time, this hint will show why the 10 horns seem to give their power to “Sagittarius” for only a short while.
Here my intensive course in Latin comes in handy, which I had to “endure” for two years for my Abitur (university entrance qualification). My teacher at that time was a true historian and didn’t want to teach us the language. History didn’t interest me as much then as today—I just wanted to refine my knowledge of the language, since I had my mind set on becoming a doctor, but I only heard two hours of Roman history every day. This discrepancy between my goal and the passion of my Latin teacher led to intense discord, which finally ruined my grades because the questions of the final exam were not about Roman history, but about Latin linguistic proficiency, and I, later, had to repair computers instead of people.
But like the Good Soldier Švejk[22]—who after going in circles for several hours, supposedly uselessly, recovered his tobacco bag, which he had accidentally left behind on a stump—I say with humility: “Everything happens for a reason.” Today, because of this unappreciated teacher, I remember what seemed so utterly useless to me.
I remembered my teacher’s vivid portrayal of the triumph ceremony of the emperors in Rome, when they successfully defeated a strong enemy in a campaign against them. The so-called triumphator was welcomed in Rome on a chariot drawn by a splendid horse-drawn carriage. In addition to the triumphator, there was a driver and a slave on board the chariot. The job of the slave was to hold a golden laurel wreath over the head of the Caesar and emperor.
There is a wonderful book by Birgit Bergmann, who conducted extensive research into the importance of the laurel wreath of the Roman emperors. She comes to the conclusion that a fresh green laurel wreath was placed on the emperor during the triumphal journey by members of the military, and the slave on the chariot additionally held a golden laurel wreath above his head with a staff.
Thus for a short period of time, the Roman general had two laurel crowns on or above his head. An organic crown, like the Corona Australis with ten stars (still) at the feet of the Sagittarius constellation, and a golden one, which, like Venus, hovers above the head of Sagittarius while the sun is passing through the constellation. To our German-speaking readers, I recommend reading online some available pages of this excellently researched book.
In Rome, it was not possible for the senate to make a Caesar into an absolute ruler, namely an Emperor. He had to be declared by the military, and of course that happened precisely when a powerful enemy that was couching at the gates of Rome or the Empire had been conquered or defeated in a great battle. That is how the emperors came to power. They were Caesars or generals who were honored by the military during their triumphal entry into Rome with the green laurel wreath, and at the same time their name was pronounced as Emperor.
According to the scenes of the heavenly drama that we watch at the beginning of 2018, we will have to reckon with such a world ruler being declared. An overpowering enemy will beset the Christian world, and we have already seen it! A terrible war will break out between Islam and Christianity, and standing as ruler over the Christian armies will be none other than Satan in the form of the Angel of Light, the leader of Christianity, Pope Francis.
The nations will give him the power, and the Roman Empire will have returned. Pontifex Maximus will carry his title once again, as a true Emperor of Rome as a world empire. Soon thereafter, he will stop listening to the “horns” who gave him the power, and exercise his sovereignty by force. This was a frequent occurrence in Rome, and the term for it is tyranny.
One might quickly think that a certain verse in the fifth trumpet heralds this terrible tyrant, who comes to power during its core period. However, we must learn to look closely.
We can find another solution to an ancient riddle through the significant movement of Venus in the first month of the fifth trumpet, which I already showed in the previous video. The riddle text is:
And they had a king over them, which is the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon, but in the Greek tongue hath his name Apollyon. (Revelation 9:11)
The only thing the theologians and interpreters know for sure is that Abaddon and Apollyon both mean “destroyer.” Everything else is speculation, and the vast majority hold Satan to be this destroyer.
The German-language Wikipedia entry on Abaddon summarizes the dilemma very succinctly:
Interpretations
The Bible text allows for various interpretations of who Abaddon might be.
Assuming that Abaddon is meant in both places, the contradiction arises that he himself comes from the abyss into which he later closes the devil.[23] Of the approaches to resolving it, two are particularly widespread: either Abaddon is not the same angel who received the key, or the two texts refer to two different angels (some interpreters believe the angel in Chapter 20 is about Michael, the dragon-slayer). The view that Abaddon punishes on behalf of God both times is also conclusive, however: first the deceived, then the deceiver (cf. the differentiated role of Satan in the Bible). Occultists regard Abaddon as a powerful demon or even as Satan himself.
Others connect the word in the Apocalypse of John with a king appointed by demonic powers.
A minority, such as Jehovah's Witnesses, assume that Abaddon is Jesus, because of the statement (in Rev. 20:1-3) where the angel of the bottomless pit casts the devil into the same. [Translated]
Now, by looking at the Book of Nature, we see more details pertaining to this verse. We see Venus over the heads of the (original) Scorpio and Sagittarius, the two locust species of the fifth trumpet! In less than one month, Venus will cover that distance. Venus is thus the actor who has the role of Abaddon and Apollyon.
The Adventist Bible Commentary knows—as all the world does, in fact—that Venus is the morning star:
The day. Rather, “day,” although textual evidence may be cited (cf. p. 10) for the inclusion of the definite article. Peter’s mind appears to have passed, quite naturally, from the Transfiguration, which prefigured the Lord’s glorious return, to the great “day” itself. He was not only reminding his readers of the spectacle that he had beheld on the mount, but was directing their minds to the glorious event it foreshadowed—the second coming of Christ in power and glory.
Dawn. Literally, “shine through,” as a light that pierces the gloom. The apostle knew his Lord’s coming would dispel the world’s darkness and usher in everlasting light. There would then not be the same need for the lamp; the Light of the world would give all the light necessary to His people. Peter may also have been thinking of the dawn of the day that brings salvation to the individual heart.
Day star. Gr. phosphoros, a compound of phos, “light,” and the verb phero, “to bear,” hence, “light bearer,” or “light bringer.” Phosphoros, occurring only here in the NT, was used of the planet Venus, sometimes known as the morning star (cf. on Isa. 14:12). The apostle here doubtless refers to Christ (cf. on Mal. 4:2; Luke 1:78, 79; Rev. 2:28; 22:16).[24]
But there is confusion when we look at Isaiah 14:12, where the word “hêylêl” is sometimes translated as morning star or Lucifer. Young’s Literal Translation is the most exact:
How hast thou fallen from the heavens, O shining one, son of the dawn! Thou hast been cut down to earth, O weakener of nations. (Isaiah 14:12 YLT)
So, we can’t know for sure whether Venus stands for Lucifer or for the Lord Jesus, but He does make a clear statement in Revelation 22:
I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star. (Revelation 22:16)
Revelation 9:11 tells us that we are dealing here with a king who is also the angel of the bottomless pit. And it suggests that this is the same one who will later lock Satan in the bottomless pit at the beginning of the millennium:
And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand. And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years, And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years should be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season. (Revelation 20:1-3)
Is it certain that this is the same angel who was called Abaddon in Revelation 9? Didn’t Saturn get the key in the fifth trumpet? Do you see how difficult it is to clearly assess what is written, without seeing what the texts are actually describing?
Through our observation of the heavens, however, we have already found some very revealing things. We have seen that Saturn got the key to the bottomless pit and that it is Venus who is standing over the heads of the locusts. Venus must stand for Abaddon/Apollyon. There are clearly two different “persons” involved in the heavenly drama! Saturn has the role of the fallen Lucifer, so the only question left is whether Venus, as the morning star and Abaddon, also stands for the angel who comes in Revelation 20 and locks up Satan, and if and how does Venus get the key ahead of time in this case.
We have already seen in the previous part that Mercury, coming from Jupiter as “the messenger of the gods,” gave Saturn the key at the beginning of the fifth trumpet. Can we observe somewhere later on the canopy of heaven that Mercury flies to Saturn again, to take the key away from him and then bring it to another “angel”?
And is this also the “angel” who—shortly after the coming of Jesus, which takes place in the time from May 21 to 27, 2019—descends from heaven, or the heavenly sanctuary, to imprison Satan? You should be curious about the next video...
A huge spectacle was playing out right in front of our eyes. The “great chain” turned out to be the “chain of pearls,” the three belt stars of Orion, and Venus, which stands for the Lord Jesus, now clearly the destroyer, called Abaddon and Apollyon, and also the angel who binds Satan. It is, therefore, the Lord Jesus who controls the locusts of the fifth trumpet, to ensure what He has promised:
And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree; but only those men which have not the seal of God in their foreheads. And to them it was given that they should not kill them, but that they should be tormented five months: and their torment was as the torment of a scorpion, when he striketh a man. (Revelation 9:4-5)
Abaddon, the future destroyer of the planet, is Jesus Christ as the angel of the tenth plague for the Egyptians who kept Israel in slavery. The one who killed their firstborn so that His people could be liberated is also the one to come back and punish the oppressors of the true Christians and bind Satan on the earth for 1000 years with His chain. It’s a wonderful picture with bitter aftertaste.
Congratulations, Jehovah’s Witnesses! You guessed right. I would also like to remind you that the Bible text is very accurate and does not mean that the angel who comes down is holding the chain “in his hand” but that it is “over his hand.” The star of the Orion that represents the Father, the middle of the three belt stars, is called “Alnilam” in Arabic, which means “string of pearls,”[25] synonymous with “chain of pearls.” If Jesus is the “angel” with the power to close the bottomless pit, one can conceive of the Father, or rather the three Persons of the Divine Council, as Those who stand as a chain “over His hand.” Together They give Their authorization for the judgment against Satan.
Now, for the first time, it is quite clear why the Lord promised:
And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations: And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers: even as I received of my Father. And I will give him the morning star. (Revelation 2:26-28)
Finally, on this subject, I can only wholeheartedly say with Jesus,
He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches. (Revelation 2:29)
It is not my way to present the solution to a biblical mystery without first showing how many futile attempts there have been over the centuries or millennia to find a fitting interpretation for one of the secrets of Revelation. But I think I can spare myself the trouble when it comes to the seven heads of the beast that “Babylon” the whore sits or stands upon. There is probably no greater prophetic rebus, more studied and more misunderstood, than this:
And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth. And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space. And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition. (Revelation 17:9-11)
I have studied all the different interpretations for many years, and even offered my own. I have already expressed my opinions in various articles, but I also admitted that I was never completely satisfied with it. The various characteristics of this beast, and especially the different aspects of its seven heads, compared to the seven heads of the dragon of Revelation 12 and 13, rendered a perfect harmony and one hundred percent agreement with every characteristic nigh impossible.
Like others, I followed different approaches. I mention only two of the most famous: (1) the seven popes of Rome since 1929, and (2) the seven world empires since Babylon, the last four being pagan Rome, papal Rome with power, papal Rome without power with the healing wound, and finally papal Rome with the wound healed.
With the popes, we have the problem that one of the seven must reappear, because the eighth king is also a beast, and one of the seven. There are already people who want to force a solution with the foolish idea that Pope John Paul II will be resurrected, and that he is then Satan in a garment of light. No, dear lunar Sabbath sleepwalkers,[26] Satan does not make it easy for you to recognize him. He has been here for a long time, and with your theory, you close your eyes so that you cannot see the truth.
The seven-world-empire believers are confronted with the problem that at the time John was on Patmos, it is said that five kings (i.e. world empires) had already fallen. One can pretty easily avoid this problem in terms of the description of the beast that “was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit,” because the “is not” phase does not necessarily have to correspond to the apostle’s time, since Greek grammar suggests that this is a descriptive view of the entire history of the beast. The Bible Commentary also expresses this:
[On Revelation 17:]8. The beast that thou sawest. That is, the beast of v. 3. John was not shown the beast in either its “was” or its “is not” state, but in its revived state following the “is not” period. However, the angel briefly recounts the past career of this fearful creature by way of identifying the beast as John saw it (see on vs. 8–11).
Nichol, F. D. (1978; 2002). The Seventh-day Adventist Bible Commentary, Volume 7 (853). Review and Herald Publishing Association.
If we now equate the seven world empires with the seven kings, we learn that at the time of the apostle, five were already fallen, one presently was, and another had yet to come. And even yet an eighth! The first four fallen world empires would in any case be Babylon, Medo-Persia, Greece, and pagan Rome. The apostle, however, lived at precisely this time of pagan Rome, and died centuries before the era of papal Rome began, as the fifth world empire, around 538 AD.
The solution sounds good, and makes a preacher of this shaky sham-truth look very wise and educated, but it is not coherent. And period! God’s word is accurate, and if something does not fit, then the whole theory is built on sand.
I spent three full weeks studying this subject; I often did not even go to the bedroom, not to disturb my wife with my sleepless tossing and turning. I struggled with the Lord for a few more drops of the latter rain, knowing that He had already ended it, since the third trumpet already brought in the ripening.
That is why I published three parts of this series meanwhile I continued to hear God’s voice in prayer, saying, “Everything is written in the heavens.” Believe me, even “prophets” usually work hard to understand the riddles of the Lord. The times of Daniel are over. It’s not as easy as having an angel come flying, saying, “The seven heads are seven cabbage heads, you thickhead.” And then you answer and say, “O Lord, praised be Thou in all eternity for this wonderful light!” And then you contritely think to yourself: “What a fool I am. I could have known that long ago!”
And yet there is something that can only be acquired by one who works closely with God. All my brethren from the movement have been aware of the signs of the heavens since my sermon for the Lord’s Supper, yet no one has found the depth and fullness of what the book of the firmament in truth proclaims of the glory of the Lord.
The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork. (Psalm 19:1)
Then on Friday morning, August 11, 2017, still in time for Sabbath preparations, it happened. The Holy Spirit came through to me, and I was able to find the solution to the riddle. This, too, happened step by step, and now I will share with you how I got it. First, I was able to recognize the seven heads (and they are not heads of cabbage):
The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth. (Revelation 17:9)
We are talking about the beast that comes from the bottomless pit, so about the beast from Revelation 17, and also about the “scorpions” that come from the same bottomless pit and have the authorization to torment for five months the people who do not have the seal of God. These scorpions have a “lifetime” of six constellations of the Mazzaroth: Scorpio and the five other constellations that stand for the five months, as I already showed in a video in the third part of this series.
The definition of the total duration of the authorization that the scorpion-like locusts received also defines the “scope” of the animal on which the woman stands. She thus stands on a conglomerate beast, which is the beast of the fifth trumpet. It consists of only six constellations if you do count Libra as being a part of the original Scorpio. Libra is anyhow a balance and therefore, does not have a “head.” How do we come then to seven heads, if we have only six constellations? Let’s look again...
You just saw the solution to a two-thousand-year-old puzzle, and yet these are only the first three words of the riddle: “The seven heads.” It continues with “are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth.”
Now that we know that the seven heads are found in six constellations, one of which is the fish, we should examine the word “mountain” more closely. The Greek word for which mountain is used here is:
G3735 oros Probably a from an obsolete word órõ (to rise or “rear”; perhaps akin to G142; compare G3733); a mountain (as lifting itself above the plain): - hill, mount (-ain).
The idea behind the word oros is, therefore, that it is a great “elevation” which rises above the horizon and to which one has to look. This description applies, of course, to a majestic constellation that is high above the horizon in the sky.
Now we run into a new problem that we have only six constellations, while the text says that there are seven “mountains.” Of course, we immediately remember that the ancient Scorpio can also be understood as two constellations: the “modern” Scorpio and Libra. In the same way as the Fishes gave us the missing head, now the ancient Scorpion gives us the missing mountain.
The idea of seeing Scorpio as one or two constellations of the Mazzaroth, reflects beautifully the concept of the leap month of the Jewish calendar. Even being one single year, it can consist of 12 or 13 months.
Whoever thinks that this was clever—and it is certainly true—will be even more astonished, when we solve the riddle about the seven kings in the next chapter.
Before we can venture on to the eighth king, we have to decipher the next sequential phrase of the riddle with the seven kings:
Many Bible translations are already very misleading. The King James Version quoted above is very close to the original, where it says “And there are seven kings.”
First of all, it only says there are seven kings! There is no basis for anything more, but some translators thought they had to write it in such a way that says the seven kings are clearly also the seven heads or mountains. There is truly a link, but also a difference. Soon you will be able to recognize it!
The seven heads are without question seven mountains, although not all mountains have heads. And the seven kings are also seven mountains. However, the seven heads are not the seven kings, although one of the heads is the reigning king, and three have already been kings, but they are no longer.
Have I confused you now even more? Take it easy, that was intended ?. But what I have written above is true. You will soon be able to solve my own riddles too. Or would you like to try it once, before you continue!?
Personally, I found the solution through divine inspiration, when He told me I should find out which “king” was reigning when John himself was alive, and how it could be that five kings had already fallen at that time. I already showed earlier that it doesn’t work with seven world empires!
What remains is to look up to heaven again and to ask for great wisdom from the Lord. My brother Gerhard is writing in parallel the article on the Age of Aquarius; God speaks of ages, or—as the Hebrew word dôr is often (misleadingly) translated—generations, 167 times in His Word, the Bible, in the Old Testament.
The world—and unfortunately especially the astrologists, who falsified and abused the time clocks of God—knows quite well about the ages. For many years, many people have been talking about the transition from the Age of Pisces into the Age of Aquarius. The change from one age to another is assumed to happen approximately every 2000 years, because that is when the vernal point, in the precession of the equinoxes, migrates into a new constellation of the zodiac. There are intense discussions between the individual groups as to when the exact time came for the beginning of the Age of Aquarius. Some say that it will not come for another 100 years, astronomically speaking. However, there was a lot of noise about it around the year 2012, when the Mayan calendar heralded the dawn of a new era. I will leave it to my brother Gerhard to show the secular view in more detail as he takes a closer look “behind the enemy lines.”
Is there any truth in it at all? As I have already mentioned, God also knows the count of ages or generations. However, it is not understood by the majority of the Christian world and the “great wise men” in the biblical research institutes, because the wisdom of God in the latter rain has been rejected. The riddle text begins by identifying the prerequisite for understanding this great mystery:
And here is the mind which hath wisdom. (from Revelation 17:9)
Let’s take a closer look at the Hebrew word for an age or generation:
H1755 dôr From H1752; properly a revolution of time, that is, an age or generation; also a dwelling: - age, X evermore, generation, [n-]ever, posterity.
The 2000-year span per star sign, which the world can read from the precession of the equinoxes through the zodiac, is not so inaccurate. We understand it better, though! We know that there is God’s Great Clock of Time in Orion, which precisely indicates the tempo of the ages. There, one revolution of time is exactly 2016 years.[27]
Let us count now. Each star sign through which the vernal point wanders is an age, or a king, who rules over this star sign for 2016 years. This means that during the lifetime of the apostle John, it must have been the Piscean Age. Most of us were also born in the Age of Pisces, since according to the Orion clock, the Aquarian age actually started on the sevenfold High Sabbath of the Day of Atonement in 2012. We wrote about that in detail,[28] but we did not link the constellations to the Orion cycles, because our understanding was still incomplete.
One must understand that the vernal point actually wanders through the star signs in the opposite direction of the sun, and very, very slowly. One complete revolution would take 24,192 years.
When five “kings,” i.e. ages, had “fallen” by the time John lived, or—now better expressed—had passed, that means that God’s counting of the ages began well before the creation of the earth! Let us make a brief list of the ages up to our age, with the constellations, the kings of the ages, and their associated periods, under the premise that all five ages began before the age of the apostle John:
The great conflict between good and evil evidently began in the Age of Leo, along with God’s counting of the generations of time. As we know from Scripture, the fall of Satan in heaven triggered a terrible war in heaven. That was certainly the reason that God’s time calendar for the plan of salvation, which should ultimately lead to the end of the conflict, began in 10,085 BC.
Do you understand now why the pyramids, scattered all over the world, often point back to a time in the Leonian Age? There are many interesting articles on the Internet about that topic. Thus, the Sphinx, which was once a lion, hints to the Age of Leo, and not only by its shape. And the three pyramids of Giza are designed to exactly replicate the position of Orion’s belt stars—not in their current position, but in the position they had around 10,500 BC. God now shows us more than just that this correlation theory is true; He even gives us the exact date of the beginning of the rebellion in heaven! Regardless of who might have erected them, the pyramids are memorials for the beginning of the controversy between good and evil.
After a long struggle, the dragon was defeated and cast out of heaven by the “Lion,” who would once be born to the tribe of Judah as a man. One great step further in God’s plan of salvation was the creation of the earth at the beginning of the fourth age. Sin was banished from the universe, and the earth became a quarantine station. Creation, as we know it from Genesis, took place in the last year of the Age of Gemini. It is no wonder, then, that the twin institutions of marriage and the Sabbath could be taken with us from Eden.
Until the birth of Jesus in Bethlehem, there were two more complete ages of 2016 years. Five ages had passed since the angels experienced sin for the first time, and now God Himself was to become a man to show the love of the Father to the entire universe. Jesus was born at the end of the Arian Age, the age of the ram, and at the beginning of the Piscean Age, the age of the fishes.
Although we were born in the same age as Jesus and John, six ages have now fallen for us. Our children who were born since 2012 were already born in the Age of Aquarius according to the divine calendar of the ages, following the rhythm of the great cycles of the Orion clock. It is already the age of the “other king,” which had not yet come to John, and which, when it would come, would last only for a little while.
See for yourself in the table. Jesus will return in 2019, and we will be with Him for 1000 years in the Holy City in the Orion Nebula, sentencing the unrepentant to their punishment, together with Him. Our return will be around the year 3019, quite exactly in the middle of the Age of Aquarius, which has just arrived. Then the great controversy will come to an end after another short time.[29] Satan will go to condemnation and eternal fire, and sin with him. The Age of the Aquarius will be shortened; it will be almost cut in half—about 1000 years. That will be the ultimate fulfillment of Jesus’ promise that the days—this present age—will be shortened.[30]
Yet another biblical mystery, this time in the Old Testament, can be solved by our knowledge of the true meaning of the word dôr. This revelation of Jesus comes just in time as we work in parallel with this series on our legacy for the 144,000. There, in the form of our writings, we pass on our knowledge to those who must stand firm without an intercessor in the great time of trouble. In that series, we often speak of the covenant which God established with Abraham, because the last martyrs of the church of Smyrna will also bear witness with their innocent blood in the coming time, just like the sacrificial animals that God and Abraham went through in Genesis 15, to seal the covenant with blood.
The Bible commentaries are in complete disagreement over two periods of time that God specifies in connection with the great blood covenant. On one hand is the 400 years of verse 13,[31] where God promises that the bondage of Israel will end after 400 years. On the other hand, we also find God’s promise that the Israelites would return to Canaan again in the fourth “generation…”
But in the fourth generation they shall come hither again: for the iniquity of the Amorites is not yet full. (Genesis 15:16)
It is already difficult to reconcile the 400 years with the 430 years of Exodus 12:40-41 and Galatians 3:16-17 alone, but that has already been solved. It is indeed about the period of the captivity of Israel in Egypt, and the interested reader can find potential solutions on his/her own.
However, it gets quite confusing if one tries to understand the four generations as generations of 100 years each, as would result from a simple calculation (400 years / 4 generations = 100 years per generation). It is neither biblical nor scientifically conclusive to attribute a generation to a whole hundred years, and on the other hand it creates other contradictions with other Bible passages where generations are concerned.
But look at how narrowly the commentators think. They want to apply all that is in the Old Testament to that time, and do not realize that God thinks and calculates on much larger scales than finite man. For God, a day is like a thousand years[32] and vice versa. Do you really believe that God, when He says “age,” means a human “generation,” as the word dôr is translated here, even though it in fact means a whole “revolution of the great clock of time”?
Now take the date of Abraham’s birth, which we have already calculated from the chronology of the Bible with the help of the Orion clock, when we were researching for the article Seven Steps to Eternity. We went from the year 4037 BC as the year of the creation of the earth, and calculated quite assuredly according to the biblical chronology till the year 2089 BC as the year of Abraham’s birth. When he left Haran in 2014 BC, he was 75 years old.[33]
The next verse where we learn anything about his age is Genesis 16:16. When Hagar bore Ishmael to him, he was 86 years old.[34] That was in the year 2003 BC. In between the two dates, with a difference of eleven years, was the great covenant of Chapter 15—between 2014 BC and 2003 BC. Isaac was born later, when Abraham was 100 years old.[35] That must have therefore been in 1989 BC.
You have the divine ages listed in the yellow table above. What was the first generation of which God spoke? Of course, that of Abraham, the ancestor of Israel and of all the faithful under the covenant. Look at the table—which age was he born in? It was the Age of Taurus, the bull.
Now, look again and see which age the birth of his rightful firstborn, Isaac, fell into. So he is the second generation according to the table of the ages, because it was already the Age of Aries, the ram, when he was born!
The covenant of Genesis 15 was also closed in the Age of Aries, as we can easily read now. Of course, the scholars also understand from the promise of Jesus that Abraham was the first generation, and Isaac the second, but they do not understand why God said:
And he brought him forth abroad, and said, Look now toward heaven, and tell the stars, if thou be able to number them: and he said unto him, So shall thy seed be. (Genesis 15:5)
They think that God just wanted to represent the multitude of his offspring, when in fact He also wanted to refer to the ages in the stellar clock, and to when the covenant would be fulfilled. When God refers to the age, He does not mean human generations, but the ages of His great clock of the precession of the equinoxes, the pace of which is set by the Orion clock. God promised to bring His spiritual Israel home to heavenly Canaan in the fourth generation. That means two ages after Isaac, which is the Age of Aquarius, which we have recently entered upon.
Through this, and not in any other way, many supposed contradictions and mysteries are solved in these and many other verses in which the word dôr occurs. We who matured into the good wheat are the ones who finally understand what God expresses, and that He as Time is thinking in truly great spans, and that Pope John Paul II does not have to resurrect for God’s prophecies to fulfill harmoniously.
Now we have come to the grand finale. The time has come to solve the riddle of the eighth king, who is the beast himself that was, and is, and ascends out of the bottomless pit. And this “king” must also meet the criteria of being one of the seven heads and seven mountains which we have already seen in the fifth trumpet.
And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth [king], and is of the seven [heads/mountains], and goeth into perdition. (Revelation 17:11)
See for yourself…
Hallelujah! Blessed be the Lord, who not only conceals mysteries, but also reveals secrets.
Even the world knows that in the stars, the fish-goat represents the incarnation of Satan. I would like to gather some quotes from an article that very aptly describes what would happen to people in the Age of Capricorn, if the king over that age would not be condemned beforehand...
In order to see what the age of Capricorn will bring to humanity from 4000 to 6000 AD we have to deep-dive into the occult meaning of Capricorn first—you might be surprised what we find out there!
Capricorn is a the most mystical, confusing and misunderstood sign. Its original ancient shape is not one of a goat—it is a half crocodile half goat but with just one horn.
The lower-aquatic/reptile side of Capricorn is in water, while the upper is above. Actually the sanskrit name of Capricorn is Makara—which means crocodile. The lower part of this mystical animal, being in water, which symbolizes the astral world (the world of passions and feeling) represents the unregenerate side of human nature—the one which succumbs to lower desires and is at the mercy of its changeable feelings. This lower part has predatory nature like the Crocodile and only responds to the reptile brain in human (the most primitive one which controls material needs and physical desires).
So at one end of the scope it represents the really low nature of humans—the animalistic selfish one, which is swimming in the passions of the world. It is not by chance that the Devil—Satan is represented by a goat-which is Capricorn. All ancient orgies of debauchery were celebrated during Saturnalia[36]—in the month of Capricorn.
But what about the upper part of the creature: it is actually an Unicorn! A Goat with a single horn. In esoteric tradition the Unicorn is a symbol of spiritual purity—someone who has become enlightened and has access to the third eye (the gland situated at the level of the forehead where the horn is coming out of)—instead of depicting Capricorn with 2 horns, the ancient sources described it as having one horn in the middle—2 becoming one: the consciousness of duality in which we now live, evolved into a consciousness of Oneness—feeling and seeing everything as connected.
All of a sudden, the boring Capricorn we have learned to think about, turns out to be this most mystical and complicated sign—symbol of the human soul’s transformation from its lower animalistic state of selfishness and materiality (the lower part of Capricorn) into a spiritually enlightened and more pure being, that is connected to everything—the Unicorn.
Enough of that! Were you looking carefully at the planetarium program? The author of the article is absolutely right; there is in fact only one star delimiting one line for one single (little) horn.
Next, they tell us that in that age, people will be divided into two races, one of which will cease to reincarnate. The other race will be equal to God (at least, those involved in the esoteric believe that). What is described here is nothing more than Satan’s original lie, which he used to seduce Eve to sin:
And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die [re-incarnation]: For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened [you will get the third eye of Lucifer, the one horn], and ye shall be as gods [the enlightened race], knowing good and evil [you will know that God is evil]. (Genesis 3:4-5)
Are you now shaken, and do you understand why God can’t let the eighth king come into power, but, sends him to eternal condemnation—if and when the witnesses will have successfully completed their work for God—before this horrific, blasphemous age breaks forth!?
That is why God’s schedule has a limit, and the Aquarian Age has to be shortened considerably—because otherwise no flesh could be saved.
And the unicorn-goat still has more to do with it… A lot more…
Read Daniel 8! Really do it, otherwise you will find it difficult to follow what I will say further.
In Daniel 2, the statue was shown to us, picturing the four world empires (or five, if you also count the European feet) that reach until the coming of Jesus: Babylon, Medo-Persia, Greece and Rome.
In Daniel 7, the portrayal of the world empires is repeated with four beasts, the fourth of which was pagan Rome. It had 10 horns, symbolizing the disintegrated Roman empire under the predominance of the papacy. Now you have to understand that the beast that carries the horns is still alive! So it is with pagan Rome: it has never ceased to exist; it just hides until the moment when power is given back to it by the military and nations, in the coming triumphant entry.
And as if that were not enough, we find another vision in Daniel 8, which represents the same thing again, according to the Bible commentaries (at least the Adventist one, coming from those who at least have some idea about prophecy).
This time, the world empires did not begin with a depiction of Babylon, since Daniel was already living under Belshazzar when he received the vision, and the world empire of Babylon ended with him when Babylon was taken by the Medo-Persians under King Cyrus.
In this vision, there are suddenly only two beasts: a ram and a goat, which fight violently against each other. Of the four we now have two, and it is only clear that one was omitted because Babylon no longer counts.
The ram appears first, and like the bear of Daniel 7 which was higher on one side than on the other, we find the ram having two horns of which it is written...
Then I lifted up mine eyes, and saw, and, behold, there stood before the river a ram which had two horns: and the two horns were high; but one was higher than the other, and the higher came up last. (Daniel 8:3)
Yes, it is about Medo-Persia again. That is clear. But read it carefully! Daniel “lifted up his eyes” and then he saw the ram before the river. Let’s do it once...
You can even see the fish swimming in the river when you look up like Daniel did. But God signifies even more here... Namely, the flow of time, the Mazzaroth, which has twelve hour marks, or constellations, and two pointers. One of the pointers is the sun that runs through the Mazzaroth once a year, and the other pointer is the vernal point, which travels much more slowly, wandering through the signs one time in upwards of 24,000 years.
About 200 years before it really happened, Isaiah prophesied the name of the Persian ruler who would destroy the kingdom of Babylon:
That saith of Cyrus, He is my shepherd, and shall perform all my pleasure: even saying to Jerusalem, Thou shalt be built; and to the temple, Thy foundation shall be laid. (Isaiah 44:28)
Thus saith the Lord to his anointed, to Cyrus, whose right hand I have holden, to subdue nations before him; and I will loose the loins of kings, to open before him the two leaved gates; and the gates shall not be shut; (Isaiah 45:1)
Do you see how Cyrus is a type for our Lord Jesus Christ? Like Cyrus, He is “an anointed” and “a shepherd” who will perform the will of God, and will one day destroy the great city “Babylon” when He comes the second time.[37] The drying up of the Euphrates was Cyrus’ tactic to enter the city through the gate of the dried-up river and take it. Likewise, in the sixth plague, the Euphrates will dry out again to prepare the way for the divine Trinity, the three Kings of the east from Orion.[38]
Can you still remember what head number Aries was, in the count of the seven heads on which Virgo stands? It was the seventh—a number which, in turn, stands for Christ.
Now go to the table of the ages above. Jesus was born in the last year of the Age of Aries (the ram) and the first year of the Age of Pisces (the fishes), which stands for Christianity!
Daniel 8 shows us the great adversary of the ram... a goat with a prominent feature:
And as I was considering, behold, an he goat came from the west on the face of the whole earth, and touched not the ground: and the goat had a notable horn between his eyes. (Daniel 8:5)
Yes, this unicorn (Greece under Alexander the Great) later becomes a four-horned beast (the four generals who had to split the Greek world empire after the death of Alexander), and then a “little horn” emerges, which grows and engages in war with the saints.
Unfortunately, the ram was killed in battle, like Jesus Christ was also killed on the cross by Satan. As a result, Christendom grew up and Satan led a “unicorn” war against them and killed many. This time, the Bible Commentary correctly understands that the little horn of the goat must symbolize both the Roman empire and the papacy. With that understanding in mind, let’s read what Daniel saw...
And out of one of them came forth a little horn, which waxed exceeding great, toward the south, and toward the east, and toward the pleasant land [spiritual Israel—Christianity]. And it waxed great, even to the host of heaven; and it cast down some of the host and of the stars to the ground, and stamped upon them [Christian persecution under pagan Rome]. Yea, he magnified himself even to the prince of the host [Jesus], and by him the daily sacrifice was taken away [they killed Jesus on the cross], and the place of his sanctuary was cast down [the papacy was established]. And an host was given him against the daily sacrifice by reason of transgression [Christian persecution from the papacy for 1260 years], and it cast down the truth to the ground; and it practised, and prospered. Then I heard one saint speaking, and another saint said unto that certain saint which spake, How long shall be the vision concerning the daily sacrifice, and the transgression of desolation, to give both the sanctuary and the host to be trodden under foot? And he said unto me, Unto two thousand and three hundred days; then shall the sanctuary be cleansed [the beginning of the judgment in 1844, which is now coming to an end]. (Daniel 8:9-14)
Do you see the overall story behind the details of Daniel’s vision of the two “animals” in chapter 8?
It is about the great controversy of the Ram against the goat with the one horn: Christ against Satan. And as Jesus is the seventh head on the canvas of heaven, Satan is the eighth king, and he is the beast that goes into perdition.
Before that, however, the Roman Empire must come out of the bottomless pit, where it has been hiding since it had seemingly ended. “Woe” unto the world, as it comes back to life again in the fifth trumpet, which means persecution of Christians. The first “woe” (and also the other two “woes”) must be correctly understood! It is not “woe” unto the persecuted saints, but “woe” unto those who persecute the true believers, because they—while thinking they are doing God a favor[39]—forsake their eternal life to perish with the “beast” in the eternal grave.
I already explained several times the crown of the true church of God, which has twelve stars. When The Hour of Truth was written, we had already recognized the twelve hours of the day in it, which pointed to a divine clock. The pure woman of Revelation 12 is therefore crowned with a clock, which is expressed in the symbolism of our movement, in the star seal.
The same, but in manifold ways, belongs to the Lord of the Universe. The messenger of God saw the crown of Jesus, which He will wear shortly before the end of the entire plan of salvation, after the millennium:
While Satan was rallying his army, the saints were in the city, beholding the beauty and glory of the Paradise of God. Jesus was at their head, leading them. All at once the lovely Saviour was gone from our company; but soon we heard His lovely voice, saying, “Come, ye blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world.” We gathered about Jesus, and just as He closed the gates of the city, the curse was pronounced upon the wicked. The gates were shut. Then the saints used their wings and mounted to the top of the wall of the city. Jesus was also with them; His crown looked brilliant and glorious. It was a crown within a crown, seven in number. The crowns of the saints were of the most pure gold, decked with stars. Their faces shone with glory, for they were in the express image of Jesus; and as they arose and moved all together to the top of the city, I was enraptured with the sight. {EW 53.1}
Why is His crown sevenfold? Those who read carefully surely didn’t overlook the fact that the saints also had crowns, and that they would be “in the express image of Jesus.” If their crowns are made of time, Jesus’ crown must also be made of time! If the 12 stars of their crowns signify the 12 constellations of the Mazzaroth that the sun goes through in a year, then the sevenfold crown of Jesus must also have to do with the constellations of the Mazzaroth...
Look at the table of the ages! Counting from the outbreak of the rebellion in heaven, what age will the great controversy be ended in? In the seventh age, which we are already in!
That is the main reason why Jesus’ crown is sevenfold: He is the victor of all seven ages, and thus the true King over all ages, past and future. He is the crowned King of time, which is an attribute of God, just like love and justice are.
Just as the seven heads are seven mountains, and there are also seven kings, so the sevenfold crown stands not only for the seven ages, but also for seven clocks, which the Holy Spirit has revealed to the saints of the Lord through the latter rain...
The Orion clock, with its great cycle setting the pulse of the precession of the equinoxes through the Mazzaroth. One dôr corresponds to 2016 years.
The Orion clock with its seal cycle from 1846 to 2014. One dôr was 168 years on it.
The Orion Clock with its current trumpet cycle, which indicates when we should look up to see God’s heavenly signs. One dôr is 636 days.
The Orion clock with its quickly approaching plague cycle. One dôr on it is 259 days. It is explained in the third part of the legacy series.
The High Sabbath List is God’s clock in the microcosm of every individual human cell. It is the gene of eternal life. One dôr on it spans the seven thunders: 174 years.
The Mazzaroth clock, with the sun as a clock hand. One dôr corresponds to the migration of the sun through the twelve constellations of the Mazzaroth in one year.
The Mazzaroth clock of the ages. The vernal point travels in the opposite direction of the sun through the twelve constellations of the Mazzaroth. One dôr is 24,192 years. The pulse comes from the Orion clock with its great cycle of 2016 years, and thus closes the loop of the seven clocks of God.
Seven is the number of perfection, and thus the number of Jesus:
Peter had come to Christ with the question, “How oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times?” The rabbis limited the exercise of forgiveness to three offenses. Peter, carrying out, as he supposed, the teaching of Christ, thought to extend it to seven, the number signifying perfection. But Christ taught that we are never to become weary of forgiving. Not “Until seven times,” He said, “but, Until seventy times seven.” {COL 243.1}
God have mercy on those who rejected the latter rain of Time.
You haven’t seen the whole grand finale yet, if you didn’t watch my May 10, 2017 sermon. There, I mentioned many more details, even though I had only begun to receive this light. However, there was one heavenly sign above all others: the sign of the sixth trumpet. The first verse of the sixth trumpet refers to the altar, the constellation of Taurus in the heavens. There, John hears the voice that commands the four winds to be released...
And the sixth angel sounded, and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar which is before God, Saying to the sixth angel which had the trumpet, Loose the four angels which are bound in the great river Euphrates. (Revelation 9:13-14)
At first glance, the last warning sign—the greatest of all—does not seem to reflect in the heavens what is symbolically represented as events on the earth in the sixth trumpet, in the latter parts of the text. Rather, it seems to show us what happens in Revelation 8 on the altar of the heavenly sanctuary, and what is happening in heaven when the four winds are loosed on the earth. In combination with Revelation 8, the sixth trumpet announces the end of grace and the end of Jesus’ service as the High Priest!
And another angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer; and there was given unto him much incense, that he should offer it with the prayers of all saints upon the golden altar which was before the throne. And the smoke of the incense, which came with the prayers of the saints, ascended up before God out of the angel’s hand. And the angel took the censer, and filled it with fire of the altar, and cast it into the earth: and there were voices, and thunderings, and lightnings, and an earthquake. (Revelation 8:3-5)
See for yourself:
That concludes the visible trumpet signs, which are warnings. On June 3, 2018, Jesus ends His service in the Most Holy Place with the blast of the sixth trumpet, and casts the censer—visibly, in the movement of Mercury through Taurus—to the earth. The warnings have ceased.
There is one more sign, which appears in the heavens at the time of the seventh trumpet. Because of its symbolism, however, it is not classified as one of the trumpets, but rather as the last harvest sign and the beginning of the treading of the winepress.[40] The harvest signs are the validation of our will by the heavenly Notary.[41]
What, then, is the meaning of the many symbols that appear in further parts of the text of the sixth trumpet, which make it almost as detailed as the fifth?
They represent what all the trumpets have been warning of: the destruction of the earth by the Third World War, which will break out either in Syria, Iraq, or Iran, when the four winds are loosed at the Euphrates, which flows through those countries. It is also a reference to Islam, which prevails in all those countries. This war will be conducted with certain weapons, the number of which is also named.
And the four angels were loosed, which were prepared for an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year, for to slay the third part of men. And the number of the army of the horsemen were two hundred thousand thousand: and I heard the number of them. (Revelation 9:15)
The third part of humanity will be instantly killed by this horrific, devastating war. Therefore, it can only be a nuclear war, since no war with conventional weapons would kill 2.6 billion people in such a short span of time—from June 3 to August 20, 2018.
The text says that the hour, day, month and year must also be known, just as Josiah Litch also predicted the beginning of the sixth classical trumpet for the year 1840, to the very day. This time, however, it will be too late for those who were waiting until that date to be converted, because the “fireballs” that will fall, will fall without the mercy of God.
With his limited conception of a technologically advanced culture yet 2000 years in the future, John describes the type of weapons used in the Third World War, the number of which he was told was 200 million.
When he says “horses,” he means something that moves quickly according to his understanding. In his time there was no means of transport faster than the horse. What are the fastest means of transport today? Which are fastest: tanks, airplanes or rockets?
The next of the apostle’s attempts at description sounds like a chimera to us again, and that is surely also true in some way:
And thus I saw the horses in the vision, and them that sat on them, having breastplates of fire, and of jacinth, and brimstone: and the heads of the horses were as the heads of lions; and out of their mouths issued fire and smoke and brimstone. By these three was the third part of men killed, by the fire, and by the smoke, and by the brimstone, which issued out of their mouths. For their power is in their mouth, and in their tails: for their tails were like unto serpents, and had heads, and with them they do hurt. (Revelation 9:17-19)
I’ll just make it simple for you now... a picture is worth more than a thousand words. This is what the apostle’s description says...
A fast horse with a lion’s head, out of which comes fire, smoke, and brimstone, and it has a tail in the back like a snake, whose head kills. The breastplates of different colors are missing in the picture, but if we understand the symbolism, we will also be clear about what the breastplates are.
I’ve “stolen” the picture from an article that says exactly what I believe. So I give the author the credit and proceed with his explanation (slightly modified) and more pictures from his article...
Please note that the text states that “the horses’ power is in their mouth, and in their tails.” That describes two different power sources, but it is the power on the tail that hurts or kills people.
That John saw the rider (not shown in the drawings) tells us that this chimera is controlled by humans. The verse says the tails have heads on them like snakes; and since the tail’s head inflicts injury with fire, smoke and sulfur, then the head of the tail must explode. So it is the heads on the tails that explode. The nuclear bomb payload is in the nose-cone of a missile that rides on a fiery stream and is called a warhead.
The power of the fire-breathing lion’s mouth is at the opposite end and propels the missile to its target. The metal breastplate of the rider represents the outer metal covering of the missile. The breastplates have colors on them, as do missiles that identify their intended purpose, and the type of explosive they are carrying, and so forth.
Rockets travel up then down as they approach their targets, like an artillery shell; but guided missiles have the ability to make corrections to their course. Consider the tail of these horses that are like snakes. The snake-like tail is what turns the tail’s head into the right direction. Directly behind the missile’s warhead is the guidance and control section.
The apostle John’s description is not specific enough to refer to one particular missile; it refers to all self-propelled missiles and rockets regardless of size, from the small shoulder-launched missiles to the intercontinental. There will be 200 million missiles and rockets used in this war; rockets do not have guidance systems.
That’s as far as the article goes, which is conclusive in my opinion, as to what the symbolism of the verses expresses. However, we also saw the parallel passage in Revelation 8, which speaks of the High Priest, Jesus, who casts the censer to the earth. In the heavens, we can even see the power with which He does that. Orion is clearly leaning forward to give this projectile a huge boost!
Furthermore, the “censer” is also “filled” with coals from the atomic furnace of the sun before it enters the atmosphere. Do you see that this is indeed the same picture? In this context, Jesus’ censer is nothing more than an intercontinental ballistic missile, which after a long flight through space enters the earth’s atmosphere again and carries with it as its payload a nuclear warhead (the coals).
From two sides we get the clear warning of an all-out nuclear war, which will be conducted in the sixth trumpet, and the consequences of which will reverse the creation of the world during the plagues. Woe, woe, woe, to those who deny the truth of God in this message, which has been in the making for more than seven years, with so great a weight of evidence!
We are at the end of the trumpet warnings and the associated heavenly signs, and also at the end of this article series. You can watch the grand finale with your own eyes. Think for yourself about what the wilderness was, which John was led into to see the whore on the terrible beast in Revelation 17. A desert is a place without life.
Perhaps I should mention the great solar eclipse on August 21, 2017, which the world looks to in the manner of the heathen.[42] Again, the Internet is bursting with articles and videos with warnings about this “sign of horror,” or there is a call for worldwide esoteric meditation to “become one.” Most of them are calming the people down, hinting that it is only an astronomical phenomenon.
What will happen? Not much, I guess. Perhaps Kim Jong-un will light another firecracker and laugh, while Trump is taming the golden toupee and tweeting a curse. The solar eclipse will pass by, and the world will forget it and continue on as before.
The true warning that this solar eclipse brings with it will not be recognized. It takes place exactly one year, one round of the sun through the signs of the Mazzaroth, before the beginning of the plagues on August 20, 2018. It comes in the middle of the core time of the third trumpet, when we await the attack of the Hydra.
And I will shew wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath; blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke: The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before that great and notable day of the Lord come: (Acts 2:19-20)
And this solar eclipse happens in the heart of the lion, where Regulus is.
The Lion of the tribe of Judah darkens the sun because He “sees” that the Hydra wants to devour His offspring in the beehive cluster. They stand there as the glory of the heavenly realms, and they turn many to righteousness through their increased knowledge of the stars.[43] Red Mars, standing in the middle of the parties involved, promises war.
Two days before I published (first in German) this last part of this series on the heavenly trumpet signs, the Hydra struck. During the Angelus prayer, Satan in the Vatican warned of “astrologers and fortune tellers.” He exhorted Christians by saying that anyone who looks at heavenly signs, like the solar eclipse of August 21, and regards them as a sign of impending disaster, would sink like Peter in the sea. Furthermore, an article was published with a video on the official website of the Catholic Church using manipulative language and images.
The listener, the reader, and the viewer is given the impression that everything having to do with the starry heavens and “signs” is astrology and fortune telling, and that there are warnings in the Old Testament that condemn all who look up to heaven! What is truly there, is that only those are condemned who “worship” the stars or the constellations—and the father of lies naturally conceals that part.
And lest thou lift up thine eyes unto heaven, and when thou seest the sun, and the moon, and the stars, even all the host of heaven, shouldest be driven to worship them, and serve them, which the Lord thy God hath divided unto all nations under the whole heaven. (Deuteronomy 4:19)
Of course he also hides the beginning of this passage. It is about graven images and the worship of saints, which is carried out to a great degree by the supposed “Christian” church. If all the idols were removed from the Catholic churches and cathedrals, the world’s hunger and poverty problems could be eliminated with the gold and precious stones of these abominations.
Thus, if the concluding verse of the passage is valid for the pope, then the initial verses must still be binding too:
Take ye therefore good heed unto yourselves; for ye saw no manner of similitude on the day that the Lord spake unto you in Horeb out of the midst of the fire: Lest ye corrupt yourselves, and make you a graven image, the similitude of any figure, the likeness of male or female [e.g. the virgin Mary], The likeness of any beast that is on the earth, the likeness of any winged fowl that flieth in the air, The likeness of any thing that creepeth on the ground, the likeness of any fish that is in the waters beneath the earth: (Deuteronomy 4:15-18)
He is a true master of guile; he uses the same seductive instruments that he himself invented to lead billions of people to their doom—spiritualism, esotericism, astrology—now against those who can discern what the Lord Jesus has recommended that we do: lift up our heads at the time appointed by God, and look up to the canopy of heaven, without the slightest thought of serving the stars or constellations, which are all just symbols. How good it is, that the Holy Spirit instructed me to give a detailed lesson on the difference between astrology and biblical astronomy, between lying wonders and the wonders of God in heaven, at the beginning of my Lord’s Supper sermon.
When the sun comes back around to the point where it now darkens on August 21, 2017, the sun’s entire radiant power will be at handle of the Lion’s sickle, and the brightness of the King of all the ages will destroy the enemy. The seventh trumpet of August 20, 2018 is foreshadowed by the great solar eclipse over America, and it is Satan who is afraid. It is Pope Francis who realizes to his horror that he has but short time,[44] and because of the signs in the celestial east and north, he is filled with great fury.[45] Because he knows:
The clocks of God are infallible.
