DEEP MEANINGS IN THE HEAVENLY SIGNS DURING THE AUGUST 2022 SUPERMOON

 

My Photo of Saturn and
the Super Moon, 11 August 2022

On the night beginning on Thursday, August 11th 2022, I was fortunate to have a clear sky overhead. This allowed me to photograph the final Super Moon of 2022, along with the planet Saturn, which is seen as a wandering star. In addition to being one of the brightest planets in the night sky, Saturn represents the many crowns of our Messiah Yahshua and the crowns belonging to His Saints, who populate His Royal Court.

Both Saturn and the Moon are in the Sign of Capricorn the Goat Fish. However, they are in the tail end of Capricorn, which appears beneath the right arm of Aquarius the Water Carrier. The fish tail of Capricorn signifies those living things that were saved from dying in the Great Flood of Noah by the Ark that Noah and his family built. In addition, this tail represents the born again followers of Yahshua who have been saved by their belief and faith in Him.

Interestingly, the fish constellation called Piscis Austrinus, which appears underneath Aquarius's feet, and has the bright star Fomalhaut at its mouth signifies the Ark of Noah! So it is tied to the tail of Capricorn as the symbol of the living things that were saved in the Ark. It also signifies the safety of the true followers of Yahshua under His divine protection.

This alignment of the Full Moon and Saturn in Capricorn's tail is also interesting because Aquarius represents Yahshua as the Living Water. This is because Yahshua gives us the Holy Spirit as a guarantee of everlasting life, which is the primary gift of salvation after being cleansed from sin by Yahshua's blood.

My Photo of Jupiter on 12 August 2022

I also went outside almost 2 hours later and took another look at the sky. Because of the time shift in the sky, I now could see the bright planet Jupiter, the Messiah planet signifying Yahshua as the Suffering Servant of Isaiah Chapter 53. As it has for the past.month, Jupiter is resting under the Ephraim Israelite Fish of Pisces. This Fish, which is swimming toward the Living Water of Aquarius, signifies the followers of Yahshua that have been grafted into the Olive Tree that represents Israel.

A Closer View of Jupiter

What I'd like to say before closing is that all of the Signs that I've seen in the heavens over the past several years always have had a hopeful and protective message for those Saints who love and follow Yahshua. I want to emphasize this because it is a clear Sign that we who are not of this world are being protected by God and we should not be worried or afraid because of this. I hope you enjoyed viewing the photos I took and the screenshots I made. They were taken from my phone photo and astronomy apps, and they show the exact location of Saturn and the Full Moon in the tail of Capricorn, and the location of Jupiter in Pisces. As the screenshots reflect, I took the photos of Saturn and the Moon in Capricorn and Jupiter in Pisces between 10:30 p.m. on Thursday, August 11th, 2022 and 12:15 a.m. on Friday August 12th.

The Judeo-Christian Meaning Hidden in the Blue Moon of New Years Eve 2009

Copyright 2010 By Helena Lehman

http://pillar-of-enoch.com

In this second half of my original article entitled: “The Deep Spiritual Significance of the Blue Moon of New Year’s Eve 2009,” we will go even deeper into the spiritual meanings hidden in the New Year’s Eve Blue Moon - the second of two Full Moons that occurred in December of 2009. For the background needed to understand this exploration better, you might want to read the first half of the article, which can be found at the following links:

American Chronicle rendition: http://www.americanchronicle.com/articles/view/134706

POEM Blog edition: http://pillarofenoch.blogspot.com/2010/01/deep-spiritual-significance-of-blue.html

Facebook rendition: http://tinyurl.com/ya3sf3u

In Part One of this article, we explored the connections of the constellations that the two Full Moons of December 2009 have with Israel, their Messiah, the nations which sprang from the dispersion of the Ten Lost Tribes of Israel, and the connection of this Blue Moon and other celestial End Time Signs that may be heralding the coming of the Tribulation and return of Christ. In this article, we will deal with the meaning of this Blue Moon for Messianic Jews and Christians who are waiting for Christ’s Second Coming.

First of all, it is important to understand that the Moon itself has a great deal of symbolic meaning on its own. Just as the hot, bright Sun that causes plants to grow signifies God the Father and the Preincarnate Yahshua, the frigid, lifeless Moon signifies Satan at its darkest phase, whereas its many intermediate phases signify sinful mankind in their various stages of spiritual growth. Allegorically, the Full Moon can signify either full blown good or full blown evil, whereas the dark side of the Moon always signifies the secret pervasiveness of evil in all its subtle and blatant forms.

Intriguingly, in the dream that the patriarch Joseph had of the Sun, Moon and eleven stars (i.e. his brothers) bowing down to him, the Moon signified Jacob’s two wives, with the illuminated side of the moon signifying Jacob’s wives Leah and Rachel and the eight sons between them while the dark side of the Moon signified the four sons born to their handmaids. The Bible tells us that Rachel produced Joseph, whose Gentile spiritual descendents are reckoned through his son Ephraim, and are thereby symbolically connected to the Tribe of Ephraim, and also to the United States of America in prophecy. Since Joseph and his descendants were showered with more material blessings than any other son of Jacob, the spiritual descendents of Joseph have become greater than all of his brothers materially as well as prophetically. Symbolically, Joseph is connected to England, but even more specifically to the United States, a one time colony of the English Monarchy.

Joseph’s brother Benjamin, however, is connected to the Jews and to Israel. This is due to the fact that the Israelites returning to rebuild Jerusalem after the Babylonian Captivity mostly came from the Tribes of Judah and Benjamin. In addition, Joseph’s mother Rachel’s handmaid Bilhah produced Naphtali and Dan - and the Antichrist may be descended from Dan. This means that the children attributed to Jacob’s loved wife Rachel have superseded those of his unloved wife Leah - almost as if God honored Jacob’s love for Rachel by blessings her sons with supremacy over all Jacob’s other spiritual and physical descendents, which number in the billions.

Now, when we take the spiritually meaningful Moon and compare its meaning to the insights hidden in the backdrop of stars, planets and constellations it travels through, much more can be discerned and understood. For example, the Blue Moon of New Year’s Eve 2009 appeared over the tip of the hour-glass shaped constellation Orion the Hunter’s upraised sword, and Orion is 1 of the 3 decans of (or constellations associated with) Taurus the Bull. Orion is a symbol for Joseph as the Vizier of Egypt, while Taurus the Bull itself can signify the descendents of Seth up to Isaac, who was prophetically identified with a bull in the Book of Enoch. Enoch allegorically connects Issac’s son Jacob with a sheep, tying Jacob to Aries the Ram.

As explained in Part One of this article, Taurus’ horns signify Joseph’s two sons Ephraim and Manasseh as well as the Gentile believers who either spiritually or literally descend from the Ten Lost Tribes of Israel. Among these people, there are those who love Yahshua and follow Him, who love mercy and do justice, who care for God’s Creation, who love their neighbors, and that care for the poor and needy while sharing the Gospel of the Kingdom of God with them. On the other hand, there are those who follow the way of the Serpent or Satan, which is the path of humanism, Hellenism, and self-worship. The two horns of Taurus signify these conflicting groups, and though these horns point in the same direction, their aims are different.

The two horns of the neighboring sign Aries the Ram also signify two conflicting groups. One of these signify those righteous few who follow the Way of Yahweh and are awaiting His Son Yahshua’s return. The other horn represents those bound to the Law and mandatory good works through their lack of faith in the salvation and freedom offered by Yahshua’s Cross. This group includes legalistic Christian cults such as Roman Catholicism and Mormonism and the Hebrew Roots cult. In addition, this enormous group includes Muslims, Buddhists, Hindus and every other religious group that requires doing specific “good” works to obtain salvation.

In Part One, it was noted that the Blue Moon of New Year’s Eve 2009 occurred between the signs of Gemini and Taurus over Orion’s upraised sword. Since a drawn sword is a symbol for war and destruction, this celestial sign is an omen of a coming great war and escalating conflicts in the world. First and foremost, the sign of Gemini signifies the Wedding of the Lamb of God to His Bride made up of the Two House Church of Judah and Ephraim. In stark contrast to its primary meaning, however, Gemini signifies the opposition between two pairs of prominent brothers of the Bible: Isaac and Ishmael and Jacob and Esau. This means that the trouble coming to those who form the Bride of Christ will come from the offspring of the antagonistic brothers. These were Ishmael and Esau, and their blood runs in the veins of most Arab Muslims today.

Since this Blue Moon of December 2009 literally occurred at the feet of Gemini in the heavens, it is a sign that those who are betrothed to Yahshua in marriage should definitely expect trouble and discord on Earth during the upcoming year - most likely coming from radical Islamic sources. The partial Lunar Eclipse of that Blue Moon that was visible throughout Europe is a sign that the discord and unrest between Muslims, Humanists, and Christians will first intensify dramatically in Europe.

As I mentioned in Part One, the eclipsed Full Moon of December 21st, 2010 will be visible over most of North America. This is a symbol that the unrest or war between Muslims and non-Muslims that will shake up Europe in 2010 will spread to Canada, America and Mexico by the end of 2010 and these conflicts will intensify everywhere in 2011. At this time, a prominent Muslim leader will likely rise to power and will fool the world into thinking he is the Antichrist. So, when he is defeated by another prominent political figure in Europe a while later, the European ruler will be hailed as the Messiah of the world. It is that European prince or ruler that will be the final Antichrist.

Since the many clashes of culture, religion and ideology in this current world are going to escalate dramatically very soon, those who love Yahshua need to get prepared to face conflict and persecution everywhere. Though other celestial signs positively indicate that the Rapture may occur around mid to late 2010 (I will focus on this in another upcoming article), the Rapture could be delayed until 2012. This means that everyone - even those counting on the Rapture to save them - will need to get prepared to face some hardship, persecution and deprivation for a time until our heavenly Bridegroom comes for us.

In the meantime, and in the midst of all this trouble, believers will continually be called to love the lost - including their oppressors - by telling them about the beauty of the Kingdom of God and the glory and grace of the salvation offered by Christ if they repent and believe. For this reason, besides stocking up on food, water and camping gear, now would also be an excellent time to engage in spiritual warfare through assertive prayer while memorizing key Bible verses and practicing your evangelization skills on everyone you know.

Get Ready! The End is Near!

Maranatha!

Celestial Forebodings and Ominous Signs in the Heavens for the New Year

By Helena Lehman

On December 31st, 2008, prompted by a question sent to me in an e-mail, I decided to take a look at the sky in my Starry Night program - and I was truly surprised! The person who wrote to me was right. There is quite a show going on in the heavens tonight.

In actuality, however, the show started early this morning with the bright planet Saturn, which represents God’s Sabbath Rest in the Millennial Kingdom of Christ. Saturn is directly between the constellations Virgo and Leo - the beginning and end of the ancient Zodiac. These signs are memorialized in the Great Sphinx, which represents Christ as “the Beginning and the End, the First and the Last” (Rev. 22:13). Leo also signifies Christ as the Lion of Judah, who - someday soon - will reign on the Earth for a thousand years of peace and prosperity in a world restored to its Eden-like perfection.

These signs alone are interesting, but don’t mean much in regard to God’s heavenly prophetic timeline until the other signs are noted in relation to it, and this is when the sky had a more intriguing message. First, before sunrise, Mars - the planet denoting war, bloodshed, and sacrifice - was visible near to the junction between Sagittarius and Scorpio. Sagittarius represents Christ as the dual-natured God-Man and Archer whose arrow will pierce the heart of that old Serpent Satan, which is depicted by Scorpio and by Serpens - that giant Serpent writhing in the arms of the messianic Mighty Man constellation Ophiuchus, which is just above Scorpio.

A bit later, the Sun, which signifies God the Father as the source of all light, warmth and wisdom rose in Sagittarius, the sign that also signifies Christ battling Satan through His redeeming sacrifice for our sins on the Cross. Then, after the Sun sets tonight, this show in the sky gets even more interesting - and increasingly more foreboding.

First - low in the southwestern sky - two pairs of celestial bodies in conjunction with each other will appear. The pair closest to the horizon will be Mercury the Angelic (Enochian) Messenger planet and Jupiter the Messiah planet at the juncture between Sagittarius and Capricorn. These two signs signify godly ideas but also hint at the genetic corruption that was going on prior to the Flood via the fallen angels called Watchers and the Nephilim Giants.

For example, Capricorn depicts the death of all terrestrial life during the Great Flood of Noah, when the Nephilim and all other earthly life was virtually wiped out due to their wickedness and genetic corruption. The conjunction of Mercury and Jupiter between Capricorn and Sagittarius therefore suggests that Christ the Messiah is planning to bring war and bloodshed to the Earth due to the violence and corruption of humanity, which - at this time in history - is approaching the level it was prior to the Flood. Could this also be a warning that mankind’s genetic tampering with food crops and domesticated animals will soon be punished by another devastating act of God?

The second pair in conjunction tonight will be sitting at the juncture between Aquarius, signifying both God’s anger and wrath in the Great Flood and His love and provision through the Holy Spirit. This pair consists of Venus - the planet signifying spiritual illumination, and the Moon - representing utter sinfulness when it is new or redemption and purity when it is full. Tonight the Moon will be a slim waxing crescent with Venus just below it, and - if the sky is clear - this pair will be clearly visible, along with Jupiter nearer to the horizon.

This crescent Moon and the bright star Venus in conjunction evoke the symbol of Islam, and suggest that there may be great trouble brewing in the Middle East that will erupt into a full-scale war soon. Ominously, there is a skirmish that just began between Israel and Gaza right now, and this could become a much bigger problem rapidly - considering the hatred of the Anti-Semitic and Anti-Christian Islamic Terrorists currently surrounding Israel on all sides.

Meanwhile, troops are amassing at the border between India and Pakistan as tensions arising from the November 2008 wounding of over 300 and the torture, mutilation and slaughter of 173 people by Pakistani Terrorists in Mumbai mounts to a heated frenzy. If a war starts between these two countries, it could leave Pakistan’s Afghan border extremely vulnerable, and this may allow Al Qaida terrorists hiding in the mountains between Afghanistan and Pakistan more freedom to advance their terrorist agenda in 2009.

Then there is the 2008 economic collapse and financial crisis that has had repercussions around the world with many losing their massive fortunes, their homes and their businesses, and many other people now unemployed and hungry. No one knows how or when this current worldwide Depression will lift, and no one knows how the USA is going to pay back its ever more massive debt load.

Emphasizing the coming wrath of God that is really evident in the sky this evening, two other planets that are tied to Noah and the Great Flood will be in Aquarius tonight. These are the gas giants Uranus - a planet connected to Noah in myth, and Neptune - the planet named after the Roman god of the sea!

Needless to say, after seeing what I saw in the heavens today, I hope Yahshua will forgive me for being lax in my observations lately! I have been busy finishing a fascinating look at ancient history through the lens of Scripture and the Gospel in the Stars, and I was sidetracked by all the amazing things the Holy Spirit has been showing me as I write. I can’t wait to share my newest book: “The Language of God in History” with the world! Check out its contents and pre-order a copy today at the Pillar of Enoch Ministry Web Site

In the meantime, for more information about what the Bible and Gospel in the Stars are predicting for us in the near future, check out my other books and the many free articles and downloads at my web site. I also have quite a few interesting articles published at the American Chronicles news site. For more background about what might happen in the near future, check out my articles there about the Prophecy in Psalm 108, the Perseus Prophecy article, and my 2012 Anti-Peace Sign articles.

I hope I’m wrong in my dire warnings for 2009, but only the future will tell. While we wait, let me take this opportunity to wish all those reading this a Happy New Year!

God bless America!

Who Are The 144,000 Witnesses of Revelation?

By Helena Lehman of the
Pillar of Enoch Ministry

NOTE: Article Published On August 28th, 2008, 
And Revised On December 5th, 2017

              When it comes to deciphering who the 12 times 12,000 Israelites who become the 144,000 Witnesses are, we need to clarify their identity and ministry by actually reading and analyzing the Scriptures concerning them in the Book of Revelation, Chapter 7 , Revelation Chapter 9, and Revelation, Chapter 14. In this article, I present the relevant Scriptures, and word studies of some of the Greek words used in these Scriptures to refer to the 144,000 who are chosen out of Israel. These serve to give a much better picture of who the 144,000 are. Praying to God for guidance from His Holy Spirit to help me understand His Word, the article that follows presents what I found out.

First of all, note the placement of Revelation Chapter 7 right after the Sixth Seal is opened. Chapter 7 is wholly devoted to describing the choosing of the 144,000 followed by the scene of the great multitude in white robes around God's heavenly throne room. This is an indicator that the Rapture will take place BEFORE the Sixth Seal is opened, and this is because God's Wrath will begin to be poured out at the time of the opening of the Sixth Seal, and believers are NOT subject to God's Wrath (Romans 5:8-10; 1 Thess. 1:8-10, 1 Thess. 5:8-10). The timing of the choosing of the 144,000 can be surmised because the angels are asked to hold back the plagues of the Wrath of God until the 144,000 are sealed with the Mark of God on their foreheads:

Revelation 7:2-4 ~ “Then I saw another angel ascending from the east, having the seal of the living God. And he cried with a loud voice to the four angels to whom it was granted to harm the earth and the sea, 3 saying, “Do not harm the earth, the sea, or the trees till we have sealed the servants of our God on their foreheads.” 4 And I heard the number of those who were sealed. One hundred and forty-four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel were sealed...”

Revelation 7:4 clearly indicates that the 144,000 are to be taken from the Twelve Tribes of Israel, and sealed with the Mark of God on their foreheads - just as some of the inhabitants of Jerusalem were sealed with a Mark on their foreheads before the siege and capture of the city by Nebuchadnezzar (See Ezekiel 9:3-7). This Mark was the Hebrew letter Tav, which is the equivalent of the Greek letter Omega, indicating the end of time. It's also interesting to note that the Proto-Hebrew letter Tav was drawn as an "X" or cross, and this no doubt is meant to signify the Cross of Christ. Furthermore, the marking of the foreheads at the time of the siege of Jerusalem was done by a linen clad man with an ink horn indicating that he was a Scribe and Prophet of God. In fact, this holy Scribe may represent the translated antediluvian prophet of God named Enoch. This is suggested by the fact that Enoch was called the Scribe of Righteousness several times by God in the Book of 1 Enoch (1 Enoch 12:5, 1 Enoch 15:2).

Though the 144,000 may well be marked with the Hebrew letter Tav as well, the Book of Revelation Chapter 14, verse 1 makes it clear that - unlike the Jews spared during that ancient siege of Jerusalem - the 144,000 will not have the Tav marked on their foreheads, but the Hebrew name of God known as the Tetragrammaton "YHWH" written on their foreheads. However, though the 144,000 are Israelites from the Twelve Tribes, this does not mean that the 144,000 are strictly modern-day Jews. In fact, as my Language of God Series Books have exhaustively shown, the modern Jews only signify a fraction of the spiritual and literal Israelites living in today’s world and throughout the ages. What is being ignored by most commentators on the 144,000 is the fact that there are the Ten Lost Tribes of Israel to consider!

The Ten Lost Tribes consist of people groups that are partly descended from the Ten Tribes dispersed throughout the known world in several successive waves. These Diaspora Israelites can allegorically and literally be associated with over a dozen Middle-Eastern, European and British nations that absorbed three waves of fleeing Israelites and Jews. These three waves occurred successively over a long period of time: once after the ancient Northern Kingdom of Israel fell to the Assyrians, at another time after the southern Kingdom of Judah fell to the Babylonians, and still later when Jerusalem and the Temple were destroyed by the Romans in 70 AD.

The remaining Two Tribes of Israel are represented by the majority of ethnic Jews today, who are descended mostly from the Tribes of Judah and Benjamin. Though there is also a remnant of Diaspora Jews living in Israel today that are descended from all Twelve Tribes, they are not part of Lost Israel, but of Judah because of their total rejection of Yahshua as their Messiah, and their hatred of the Gentiles and Gentile nations they left behind.

       Though this is not true in all cases, many of the Lost Israelites of the Diaspora that live in the West have become a part of the spiritual Israelites who have been adopted into the Kingdom of God through the acceptance of Christ’s sacrifice on the Cross for their sins. In Romans 11:16-24, the Apostle Paul - who was a Benjamite and therefore can be identified as a Jew - taught that the Gentile believers in Yahshua are considered to be wild olive tree branches that are grafted into the natural olive tree that signifies the Israelites naturally descended from Isaac’s son Jacob/Israel. 

          Though they do NOT replace the Jews, the Ten Lost Tribes are reckoned with believing or Messianic Jews as equal members in the Body of Christ, and the loving congregations that form the Two-House Church of Judah and Ephraim. The Two House Church of Judah and Ephraim are referred to in several Bible prophecies as working together with Yahweh God against Satan’s schemes (See Psalm 108:7-9; Isaiah 11:12-14; Ezekiel 37:15-20; and Zechariah 9:12-14).

In Revelation Chapter 9, we are also indirectly told that the 144,000 will be protected from all harm by this Seal of God on their foreheads, In the following Scripture quote about the demonic locusts that come up out of the bottomless pit and will plague unsaved, unrepentant mankind for 5 months, note verse 4, where it says that those sealed with the Seal of God, which are the 144,000 Israelites from Chapter 7, will not be harmed by the plagues coming upon the wicked:

Revelation 9:1-6 ~ “Then the fifth angel sounded: And I saw a star fallen from heaven to the earth. To him was given the key to the bottomless pit. 2 And he opened the bottomless pit, and smoke arose out of the pit like the smoke of a great furnace. So the sun and the air were darkened because of the smoke of the pit. 3 Then out of the smoke locusts came upon the earth. And to them was given power, as the scorpions of the earth have power. 4 They were commanded not to harm the grass of the earth, or any green thing, or any tree, but only those men who do NOT have the seal of God on their foreheads. 5 And they were not given authority to kill them, but to torment them for five months. Their torment was like the torment of a scorpion when it strikes a man. 6 In those days men will seek death and will not find it; they will desire to die, and death will flee from them.”

Revelation 14:4 also tells us that the 144,000 are Firstfruits. As Firstfruits, they are the Firstfruits of the First Resurrection Harvest, or the first heads of spiritual grain to ripen before the rest of the crop. This same verse says that they are virgins who have not “defiled” themselves with “women”. The term “Firstfruits” specifically refers to the First Resurrection, which started when Yahshua rose from the dead, bringing many righteous saints from their tombs to rise up to everlasting life shortly after Him (Matthew. 27:51-53). These saints that took part in that Resurrection and in the First Rapture that will occur before the Greet Tribulation are among the Firstfruits of the Resurrection into immortal life. These saints that are caught up to Heaven before the Sixth Seal is opened are the Bride of Christ and the Wise Virgins. 144,000 of those spiritually pure virgins will be chosen for special service on the Earth at the time of the First Rapture just before the Sixth Seal is opened and the 3-1/2 year Great Tribulation begins. I call this Rapture the First Rapture because there may be a Second Rapture or Catching Away when the Two Witnesses are raised up and taken to Heaven just before the Battle of Armageddon ensues. See my article “Come Up Here and Come Away” to learn more about my Two Rapture Theory.

In contrast to these Resurrection and Rapture events, the Second Resurrection occurs only once, and there is no guarantee that any of these poor souls that are resurrected at the Last Judgment will be saved after they are judged by the Law. This resurrection and judgment of the unsaved will occur at the end of the world - just before the New Heaven and New Earth are created. Regarding this Final Judgment, Scripture suggests that the resurrected saints that took part in the First Resurrection unto everlasting (which includes those who were resurrected at the time of Christ's Resurrection from the dead) will be the judges of the unsaved at the time of the Second Resurrection (See Revelation 20:5 and Revelation 20:11-12).

As Firstfruits, the 144,000 are part of the Firstfruits of the Resurrection, meaning that the 144.00 are the first figurative heads of grain to ripen, or be spiritually mature. This means that they will not be left behind or be raised up at the end of the Great Tribulation with the remainder of the harvest. They have to be immortal saints that have been chosen at the Rapture that occurs before the Great Tribulation. Also interesting to note here is the fact that neither Revelation Chapter 7 nor 14 calls these set-apart saints “witnesses,” so that term for them originated out of association. Indeed, since these saints follow and serve only the Lamb of God who is Yahshua and His Father Yahweh, they are very godly and Spirit-filled. From this, we can infer that they are also great witnesses of God’s righteousness, and that they truly reflect God’s character to a lost and dying world.

Rather than receiving a visible mark, these 144,000 saints may simply be marked by the indwelling presence of the Holy Spirit within them, which serves as an indelible and invisible seal on their foreheads, which represents the seat of their intellect that controls their actions. In fact, the seal of the Holy Spirit guarantees the salvation of all who are truly redeemed in Christ (Ephesians 1:13, Eph. 4:30). Before Christ, this invisible seal of the Spirit was still given to devout Israelites just as Ezekiel attested to, but they had to earn the right to receive it. In other words, they could not simply repent, believe and then be covered by the blood of Christ to sanctify themselves like humble believers may mercifully do today.

Next, we have to determine what the writer means by “virgin” and “women.” Rather than meaning that the 144,000 are all men who never slept with a woman, could the writer be suggesting that these saints were never loyal to any particular church, synagogue, and/or political party? For example, the “Woman clothed with the Sun” in Revelation 12:1-6 represents the righteous Jewish/Israelite bloodline that Yahshua was descended from. As an extension of that righteous bloodline, Yahshua makes us into His Church and His Body by His shed innocent blood when we accept His shed Blood as a sacrifice for our atonement from sin.

Meanwhile, in Revelation 17:3-6, the “Woman sitting on a Scarlet Beast” represents the apostate churches and false religions of the Tribulation period that are “married to”, or in league with corrupt bankers and dishonest politicians, and “she” worships the same Beast that they have created. This false church is described as a Harlot because of “her” association with the Roman Catholic Church, and the Ecumenical Movement being pushed by the Vatican and the British Monarchy via the Church of England. Sadly, Rick Warren and a host of other American preachers are now in league with Rome and London in their desire to create the New World Order, which will be the world empire of the Beast. They are also working toward creating the wicked one world religion that will ride that economic Beast into perdition for eternity.

For those who don’t know, the Ecumenical Movement or Woman Riding the Beast being pushed by The Church of England and the Catholic Church supports the false religious doctrine that all paths lead to God, and therefore belief in Christ is not necessary for salvation, and this is pure HERESY. In addition, ecumenical doctrines include the elevation of the self to godhood, the denial of the reality of sin, and the flagrant denial of the need for true repentance and divine forgiveness. Therefore, in Revelation 14:1, where it says: “virgins not defiled by women,” it could very well mean that these saints are not part of any organized religion, nor are they major political or religious activists. In fact, this description strongly suggests that the 144,000 are godly saints that live quiet and pious lives apart from worldly religious organizations and political parties, and the associated riches and excesses attached to involvement in both.

If they are truly set-apart or holy, saints who love God give themselves exclusively to Him. As a result, they no longer serve the world, or any institutions that are of the world. In other words, these saints live more like hermits who are detached from the world rather than being active in church or politics, and they are definitely not social butterflies. In fact, they serve exclusively as God’s witnesses to their immediate families, friends, and acquaintances, and perhaps only reach the rest of the world through their own writings or books about their understanding of God and His desire for mankind. Incidentally, this describes my own life over the past twelve years fairly well, and someone once told me that they think I might be one of the 144,000. Though I do not claim this honor, I would be deeply humbled with gratitude if God chose me to be one of them.

There are several Scriptures that define what the nature of the 144,000 should be like. These Scriptures define the most holy or most set-apart of the saints who follow the Way of Yahweh through Yahshua. In the Epistle of John, for example, it says that those who truly love God cannot love the world, for they are mutually exclusive:

1 John 2:15-17 ~ “Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 16 For all that is in the world - the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life - is not of the Father but is of the world. 17 And the world is passing away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides forever.” 

The same Epistle also says: 

1 John 2:9-11 ~  “He who says he is in the light, and hates his brother, is in darkness until now. 10 He who loves his brother abides in the light, and there is no cause for stumbling in him. 11 But he who hates his brother is in darkness and walks in darkness, and does not know where he is going, because the darkness has blinded his eyes.” 

Together, these two passages describe the nature of the 144,000. These are saints that do not love the world or the things of the world - such as wealth, fame, worldly success, and hedonism - at all, and they do not pursue mankind’s approval. Instead, they seek Yahweh God’s approval alone, and they love God the Father and their brethren around the world, especially those that claim to love Yahshua, but may not really “know” Him. Those who do not know Christ do not have a personal relationship with Him via the Holy Spirit, and are therefore unable to please God or live a truly set-apart or holy life.

        Now, when translated correctly (as in the NIV Bible instead of the KJV or NKJ), Revelation14:1 says that the 144,000 have Yahshua’s name and His Father Yahweh’s name written on their foreheads (instead of just the Father’s name as in other translations). KJV and NKJ Bibles with footnotes indicate that at least two ancient manuscripts record that “His name and His Father’s name” are written on the foreheads of the 144,000 instead of only “His Father’s name”. This means that these saints have Yahweh’s and Yahshua’s True Names always in their hearts and minds, and they have put themselves into subjection to both God the Father and God the Son, and follow their righteous Laws. 

        This means that the 144,000 cannot be racially pure religious Jews at all because they honor Yahshua’s Name! Instead they will likely be a mixture of Spirit-filled Messianic Jews and devout Christians who keep the three major Feasts of Israel, which are Passover or Pesach (Easter), Pentecost or Shavuot, and the Feast of Sukkot or Tabernacles, which the American Thanksgiving holiday is directly tied to, or the Second Sukkot called Chanukah, which Christmas is directly tied to. Remember, Christians are Israelites too because they are adopted into Israel by their active relationship with God and His Son, and some are even physically descended from the Lost Israelites.

As for the purpose of the 144,000 on the Earth during the Great Tribulation, it is never actually stated in Scripture, so there is an undeniable air of mystery concerning them. Nonetheless, it seems logical to assume that - due to their being chosen during the Tribulation period - these saints are meant to serve God by leading others to Christ and protecting these new saints during the Great Tribulation, which is a 3-1/2 year period. As an example of this, we need look no further than the Two Witnesses, who are called to be witnesses for God’s Truth by preaching the Gospel, performing terrifying supernatural miracles to destroy threats and convict the evil world of God’s power, and then by being resurrected from the dead and ascending into Heaven as the whole world watches (Rev. 11:3-12).

Incidentally, just as the Woman Clothed with the Sun in Revelation Chapter 12 that signifies the Two House Church is kept safe for 1,260 days, the Two Witnesses are also commissioned to preach for 1,260 days, which is 3-1/2 years or 42 months - the same length of time that the Beast out of the Sea, or one world government of the Antichrist, will reign over Jerusalem - according to the following Scriptures:

Revelation 11:2 ~ “But leave out the court which is outside the temple, and do not measure it, for it has been given to the Gentiles. And they will tread the holy city underfoot for forty-two months.” 

Revelation 13:5 ~ “And he (the Beast out of the Sea) was given a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies, and he was given authority to continue for forty-two months.” 

When taken together, these two Scriptures indicate that the Antichrist and his New World Order will only be in control of the world for the last half of Daniel’s Seventieth Week, not the full seven years of the Tribulation. Since the Woman clothed with the Sun is protected in the “wilderness” or place of refuge for the same amount of time, it makes sense that the First Rapture is tied to the middle of Daniel's 70 Week, or after the first Five Seals are opened, and not before the beginning of the Seal Judgments.

Something few have noted about the 144,000 is that they appear with Christ on Mount Zion in Revelation, Chapter 14, and this portion of the book appears to be dealing with events after the Antichrist declares himself to be God in the middle of the Tribulation. This suggests that Christ will descend to Earth before the Battle of Armageddon to Rapture the surviving Tribulation Saints that were kept alive, shepherded and protected by the 144,000, and that this will happen at the same time that the Two Witness are raised from the dead and caught up to Heaven.

The Rapture is suggested by the fact that Revelation 14:3 says that these 144,000 saints are to be taken up to Heaven at that time so that they may sing a special worship song that only they can learn to sing. They sing this song before God’s magnificent throne that is surrounded by the four Cherubim or Living Creatures and the Twenty-four Elders, which may represent the first twelve godly Patriarchs of old, and the Twelve Apostles of Christ (Rev. 4:2-7, Rev. 14:2-3).

Revelation 14:1-5 ~ “Then I looked, and behold, a Lamb standing on Mount Zion, and with Him one hundred and forty-four thousand, having His Father’s name written on their foreheads. 2 And I heard a voice from heaven, like the voice of many waters, and like the voice of loud thunder. And I heard the sound of harpists playing their harps. 3 They sang as it were a new song before the throne, before the four living creatures, and the elders; and no one could learn that song except the hundred and forty-four thousand who were redeemed from the earth. 4 These are the ones who were not defiled with women, for they are virgins. These are the ones who follow the Lamb wherever He goes. These were redeemed from among men, being firstfruits to God and to the Lamb. 5 And in their mouth was found no deceit, for they are without fault before the throne of God.”

If all of the 144,000 survive until near to the end of the Great Tribulation, and the Scripture quoted above says that they do, then the 144,000 must be fully immortal, resurrected saints that will be incapable of being killed during the Great Tribulation, or at any time.

As shown in my 800-page book “The Language of God in History,” Zion may not only refer to Jerusalem’s Temple Mount, but to the Great Pyramid at Giza, which was built on the border between Upper and Lower Egypt by the righteous Sethites who followed Yahweh prior to Noah’s Flood. This huge stone pyramid is tied to the brightest of the constellation Orion’s belt stars called “Al Nitak”, and this bright star may also signify an invisible location in the Third Heaven where Paradise is located, and where Yahshua now resides. In addition, both this star and the pyramid represent the Two-House Church of Israel, and specifically the Bride of Christ, who will one day forever reside in the New Jerusalem with Yahshua. Please see my Blog article about the Great Pyramid by clicking HERE for more details. 

Could God’s Throne be located in another dimension in the vicinity of Orion or Taurus, since Orion is a decan of Taurus? Is this the location of the heavenly Zion where the Saints will travel when the First Rapture occurs? It is possible, since scientists have long speculated that the center of the Universe may be near to the Pleiades star cluster in Taurus. In fact, that may be the reason why the brightest star in the Pleiades is named “Al Cyone”, which means “The Center”.

Could this imply that the Pleiades are tied to the center of the Universe, and the invisible location of God’s Throne room in Heaven? It is certainly possible, and it would also explain why Satan’s henchmen known as demons often disguise themselves as alien beings or “Ascended Masters” and claim to be from the region of the Pleiades. Satan loves to confuse the Saints by tainting everything good that is associated with God the Father and falsely connecting these things with evil, darkness, and deception!

When taking all of these facts into consideration, one thing is clear: the 144,000 Witnesses are a very special group of believers in God’s Kingdom, and they are given a unique position and a great purpose during the Great Tribulation that only Yahweh God understands fully at this time.

Purim, Spring Equinox, and Easter Blessings!

My, how quickly this year is speeding by, with Easter and spring just around the corner. Here where I live in the Chicago area, there are still no real signs that spring is almost here. Whereas this time last year the crocuses were blooming around my home, no sprouts have even dared to appear above the mulch layer in our flower beds yet.

This year, Easter falls on Sunday, March 23rd, 2008, which is almost a full month ahead of Passover. In fact, it almost coincides with the Spring Equinox on March 20th, and the Jewish Feast of Purim, a Full-Moon celebration beginning on the evening of Good Friday, March 21st, 2008. This is an extremely rare event, and one worth noting for the tremendous amount of spiritual symbolism that comes into play with the intersection of these two holidays with two notable celestial events.

For one thing, many don’t know that the true story behind the Jewish celebration of Purim holds much prophetic and symbolic significance for Christians. I discuss this prophetic significance in my book “The Language of God in Humanity.” In addition, this book explains how Easter and Passover are related, and also why they are not often celebrated in conjunction with each other, as they ought to be.

As some may know, Easter is determined by finding the first Sunday to occur after the first Full Moon after the Spring Equinox. Amazingly, all of these prerequisites are being met this year in the space of only four days! This is a remarkably rare event. It is also remarkable for Purim to be celebrated so close to Easter - a holiday with a name that is highly reminiscent of the name Esther. Esther was the Jewish heroine of the Purim story who became the Queen of Persia. Her story was so remarkable that an entire book in the Old Testament of the Bible is devoted to her trials and triumphs.

Though, on the surface, this similarity in names between Esther and Easter seems to be a coincidence, there is much more to this than first meets the eye. For example, though Easter celebrates Christ’s victory over sin and death, and His resurrection from the dead, and Purim celebrates the triumph of the Jews over religious and political oppression and tyranny, they both deal with freedom from spiritual restraint and fleshly bondage. They both also have clear prophetic messages to share with the Gentile Church about the Great Tribulation, and the First Resurrection.

For those who want to know more about the spiritual meaning behind the symbols of Purim, Easter and Passover, you might want to read my article and excerpts concerning these Holy Days, and their relationship to Christ’s death and resurrection. The article about Passover’s meaning is available in the Free Articles section of my Pillar of Enoch Ministry web site. The two book excerpts from “The Language of God in Humanity” are available in PDF format. One focuses on Purim’s symbolic prophetic significance for the Church, and the other is about the timing of Christ’s death and resurrection in relation to Passover and Easter.

Please note that the Purim excerpt now includes the entire section in the book that covers Purim, whereas only half of that section was available to read free online before today. Here are links to these resources:

The Sinister Origins of the Nephilim Giants or Reptilians

Author's Note: The following article consists of the actual Author's Foreword from my new book “The Language of God in History,” which contains hundreds of pages of exciting information about the Watchers, or Annunaki, and the Nephilim, or Giants that were on the Earth prior to the Great Flood. It serves as an exciting introduction to one of the most interesting books in “The Language of God” Book Series. I hope you enjoy reading it, and I welcome your feedback about it.

Author's Foreword from "The Language of God in History"

This book has been written for two major reasons. First, it is an educated Christian response to the virulent anti-biblical attitudes among world secular academia. Secondly, it is in response to the many alien conspiracy advocates and Darwinists who use author Zechariah Sitchin's corrupted research surrounding the Watchers (i.e. Sitchin's Annunaki) and their Nephilim offspring to support Evolution, and to suggest that modern human beings, or Homo-Sapiens are the by-product of genetic manipulation.

This manipulation of apes or Neanderthals by the fallen angels (a.k.a. the Watchers, or Annunaki) or their Nephilim offspring (a.k.a. giants or reptilians) supposedly resulted in the development of Homo Sapiens, which Sitchin claims were created to be a quasi-intelligent slave race geared to serve the Watchers and Nephilim prior to the Great Flood. However, though humanity was subjugated by the Nephilim both before and after the Flood, the Bible teaches that mankind was created as a unique and fully developed animal species long before the Watchers came down to Earth. The fallen among the Watchers did, however, use genetic engineering to create the Pre-Flood Nephilim, and Post-Flood Anakim and Rephaim giants in an almost successful attempt to corrupt and destroy all life on Earth.

Some conspiracy theorists also believe in the Gap Theory, which supposes that another creation and destruction of the Earth by water occurred in an imagined gap of omission between the first two sentences of the Book of Genesis. The theory goes that the Watchers or Annunaki were the first beings to inhabit the Earth, which was subsequently completely destroyed by a worldwide flood. This imagined flood would date to approximately 8,000 years before Noah's Flood in 2347 BC. This argument is often used by Evolution-touting Christians to support their belief in Darwin's theories, as the Gap Theory allows them to add as many imagined years as they want to biblical chronologies so that it will coincide with current evolutionary thinking.

Nonetheless, the Gap Theory is totally against the teaching of the Bible, and is misleading millions of people into believing falsehoods about the past that have absolutely no basis in fact. For example, many conspiracy theorists who accept the Gap Theory also believe that mankind is the product of genetic manipulation with Watcher, and/or Nephilim genetic material. However, the Bible tells us that God created mankind in His image, not in the image of a subhuman ape, or genetically-engineered Nephilim monster!

In fact, the writer of Genesis specifically stated that God saved Noah because he “was perfect in his generations” and “the earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence” (Genesis 6:9-11). He made this statement to clarify that both Noah and his sons were still perfectly human - with no Nephilim blood mixed in! In short, they were the only people who had not become genetically corrupted, and violently unstable.

Humanity had sunken so low from genetic corruption by the time of Noah that they had inherited the Nephilim penchant for perpetual violence and bloodlust. As evidenced in the Book of 1 Enoch and the Book of Jasher, the Watchers succeeded in corrupting nearly all divinely-created life forms by mixing the genes of animals, birds and reptiles together in a multitude of ways to create a seemingly endless array of hybrid Nephilim monsters. Furthermore, these mutant creatures had no compulsion to follow God's laws, and therefore became grossly wicked.

Sadly, because the Nephilim were cunning and powerful, mankind gradually succumbed to their evil ways, and became genetically corrupted with their genes through sexual unions that produced mutant hybrid children. The resultant mutant humanoid races were as disdainful of God's laws, and as evil and violent as their Nephilim forbears. This is why God grieved that He had created mankind, and wanted to destroy all life on the Earth (Genesis 6:5-7). Thankfully, there were still some pure animals and plants among every species on Earth just before Noah's Flood, or no animals would have been allowed to board the Ark.

Nonetheless, God's plan to completely destroy the Nephilim scourge in the Great Flood was somehow thwarted. This is why God chose Abraham and the Israelites. Yahweh wanted to raise up a purely human army of believers who would trust their one true Creator God for the help they needed to defeat their inhuman enemies. As will be shown in Chapter Eight of this book, the Israelites were chosen by God to kill all the Nephilim, or giants who had survived the Flood. They were ordered to do so because these evil alien beings had conquered the Sethites who originally lived in Canaan until shortly after Abraham's time. Furthermore, they had expressly done so to prevent Abraham's descendents from taking the Promised Land that God had promised them.

As explained in the Book of Jasher, Melchizedek, the king of Salem, was none other than Shem. As Noah's and God's favored son, Shem was the leading patriarch of the Shemite (i.e. Semitic) clans, and he resided in Canaan, which was to one day be known as Israel. Furthermore, the city of Salem that Melchizedek governed over was in the location of the future city of Jerusalem. This is why Melchizedek honored Abraham, and vise versa. They both must have been divinely informed of God's plan for Abraham's offspring to one day inhabit Canaan forever. In addition, they both likely secretly knew that God had a plan to destroy the giants, which required these mutants to invade Canaan.

Per God's plan, the Nephilim were provoked by their hatred of God's chosen people to invade Canaan to annihilate and subjugate the human populace, and then settle there - thus ensuring that most of the giants would eventually be gathered into one place after the Flood. This made it much easier for Abraham's descendents to destroy the Nephilim, and reclaim their stolen land for Yahweh. Assuming this explains partly why Shem didn't simply give the land to his eleventh generation grandson Abraham at that time, since Abraham was the heir to God's promises to Shem.

The true conspiracy behind all the problems in the Middle East today is that this information is plainly recorded in the Bible and Book of 1 Enoch, but pastors have either been taught not to teach about this, or refuse to do so. Yet this Nephilim conspiracy to destroy mankind is partly behind the hatred of the sons of Ishmael for the sons of Isaac. It is also exacerbated by the jealousy and sibling rivalry between Ishmael and Isaac, which has never been resolved.

To further complicate the situation, the Nephilim-tainted Philistines of ancient times have metamorphosed into the Palestinian people of today. Just as the Anakim, Amorites, Amalekites, and Philistines were Israel's bitterest enemies, their modern counterparts hate and desire to provoke and/or kill all the spiritual (i.e. Christian) and literal (i.e. Jewish) descendents of Abraham living in Israel, and throughout the world.

Because ten of the twelve Israelite spies who were sent into Canaan to scout their defenses were afraid of these Nephilim giants, God forced the Israelites to wander in the Sinai for forty years (See Numbers, Ch.13 & 14). This served as a blessing in disguise, since - during their wilderness wanderings - the Israelites became physically fit, hardened warriors that were ready to fight their most fearsome enemies.

Subsequently, when the Israelites returned to Canaan, they had lost their slave mindset and - even more importantly - had learned to trust God. As a result of their new-found faith in Yahweh's power, they had no trouble defeating the Philistines, giants, Anakim and Rephaim in Canaan, and winning the Promised Land for Yahweh. As will be shown in this book and Book Four, the bloodline of the Nephilim was sadly not fully extinguished, and can be associated with some of the aristocratic and noble bloodlines in Europe, Great Britain and the Middle-East today.

This book - and the series it is a part of - was written to reveal many of the truths about the One True God and His Creation that the Nephilim, fallen angels, and the pagans who followed them have mocked, perverted, hid, or otherwise tried to destroy since the dawn of time. For this reason, though this book has been written to stand alone, it is meant to be read in conjunction with the other books in the series, and is most beneficial when viewed as part of the set. However, if you do not have access to these books, you can still gain much from this single volume in the series. As you continue to read, may Yahweh bless you on your spiritual journey into the secrets of the past.

Lunar Eclipse Warns of Coming Judgment for Resurrecting the Nephilim Spirit

On February 20th, 2008, between 8 and 10 pm CST, there was a full Lunar Eclipse in the sign of Leo that I was fortunate enough to be able to see from my home's front window in the Chicago area of the USA. It was unusually clear that night, but bitter cold! Thankfully, the whole waxing and waning eclipse was visible from my front window before the moon slipped up too high on the ecliptic to be seen, as it was then over my house.

The eclipse occurred when the Full Moon was centered between the star Regulus and the prominently-ringed giant gas planet Saturn, also housed in Leo. During a Lunar Eclipse, the Moon takes on an eerie reddish hue reminiscent of blood. I think this is significant, especially because eclipsed Full Moons appeared on the night that the Angel of Death plagued Egypt on the very first Passover, as well as on the Passover night after Yahshua (Jesus) was crucified on the Cross.

As some of you may know from my previous posts here (or from the pdf supplements and excerpts at my http://pillar-of-enoch.com/ web site), the sign of Leo represents the Lion of Judah, Yahshua Ha Mashiach (i.e. Jesus the Anointed One), Saturn represents the kingship and Sabbath rest of God, and Regulus is the king star associated with the birth and coronation of kings that was prominently in conjunction with the Messiah planet Jupiter at the time of Yahshua's birth in 3 BC.

While the Moon was being eclipsed in Leo, the Sun was in the exact center of the sign of Aquarius on the other side of the world, and was flanked on either side by two more distant gas giant planets: Uranus and Neptune. In addition, Venus was in Capricorn and Jupiter was in Sagittarius. These two signs have good connotations in the Star Gospel, as Capricorn can be associated with Noah and his deliverance through the horrible judgment of the Great Flood, and Sagittarius signifies the dual purpose of Christ as a blood sacrifice for sin, and a conquering king who vanquishes Satan forever.

However, both of these signs have a negative side that has to do with the Nephilim, who were part human and part animal monsters that were genetically spliced together by the fallen angels and their wives. Unfortunately for humankind, this warped effort to play God in the past turned deadly when their Nephilim children became giants, developed voracious appetites, and then began to eat and destroy humanity and all the other creatures on the Earth that they were composed of.

When these Nephilim died, they were outside God's Plan of Redemption, and their spirits are therefore to be trapped forever as demons. Some of these demonic Nephilim spirits currently wander the Earth where they can torment people, or have been supernaturally neutralized as powerless spirits imprisoned forever inside the fiery abyss, or Lake of Fire deep inside the Earth that has been prepared for them for all eternity.

Interestingly, Leo is a symbol of Christ coming again in power to conquer the Seed of the Serpent. The Seed of the Serpent refers to unrepentant sinners, who are like the Nephilim in their inciting of evil and violence, as well as the literal spirits and seed of the Nephilim still in existence on the Earth today. In addition, both Leo and Aquarius are powerfully connected to the End Times, and the coming of the Great Tribulation, and Capricorn and Sagittarius warn us of the coming of the Nephilim. Therefore, could it be that Yahweh is issuing humanity a warning about the unholy genetic splicing and demonic worship going on today, just as it was going on before the Flood?

After all, we are now creating genetically altered food crops containing animal genes, and are manufacturing cloned and genetically mixed animals in test tubes. In addition, there are reports of bizarre genetic experiments going on that involve the creation of mutant creatures containing the genetic material of many types of life mixed together - just as was done prior to the Great Flood with devastating results.

In addition, we are living in the most ungodly time in history since the Flood, when this Scripture has literally come true, and intensified in the past 30 years:

"But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away!" - 2 Timothy 3:1-5

In the Book of Revelation, Yahshua warned that He was going to harshly judge these people who have a form of godliness outwardly, but secretly are filled with every iniquity, and who revel in violence, pride, narcissism, and hedonism. This warning was given to the Laodicean Church, which signifies many of the Christian congregations in North America, the United Kingdom, and Europe today:

"And to the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write, 'These things says the Amen, the Faithful and True Witness, the Beginning of the creation of God: 'I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. I could wish you were cold or hot. So then, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will vomit you out of My mouth. Because you say, "I am rich, have become wealthy, and have need of nothing" -- and do not know that you are wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked -- I counsel you to buy from Me gold refined in the fire, that you may be rich; and white garments, that you may be clothed, that the shame of your nakedness may not be revealed; and anoint your eyes with eye salve, that you may see. As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten. Therefore be zealous and repent." - Revelation 3:14-19

Can you identify people who are a part of this widespread Laodicean Church, which preaches the false Health and Wealth Gospel, also known as the Prosperity Doctrine? Have you recently been a victim of increasing numbers of selfish, vindictive people who think they are better than you are, and who treat you disrespectfully - without cause?

How many feel entitled to be rich, or want to live as though they were rich with their extravagant use of credit? How many now spend far more money and time on preserving their looks, and having a good time, than they do in helping others to grow in their spiritual faith? Do you know people, or have you ever felt led to utter the magical "Name it and Claim It" incantations (i.e. positive affirmations) used to procure wealth through the false, or Anti-Gospel powered by demons disguised as Angels of Light? If so, you have encountered the Laodicean Church.

Yes, with all the relativism, tolerance of sin, and emphasis on wealth and pleasure in today's Laodicean Church, there is no doubt that we are living in the Last Days, for it is now just as Yahshua said it would be:

"And as it was in the days of Noah, so it will be also in the days of the Son of Man." - Luke 17:26

Get ready everyone, for the signs in the heavens are warning us that the Days of Noah are upon us once again! This means that terrible trouble and judgment are coming upon the whole world very soon, and those who do not repent, and turn to Yahshua for salvation will suffer enormously in the wake of the cataclysmic events during the Great Tribulation.

Anyone who has read my recent articles about the Perseus Prophecy connected to three comets, or the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse being connected to the celestial signs on December 21st, 2012, and forming a great Anti-Peace sign in the sky on that very day know that the heavens were designed by God to tell us His Will, the consequences of sin, and the working of God's Plan of Salvation throughout time.

Because of this, I urge you all to pray fervently for our supernatural deliverance from evil, and join me in constantly crying out "Maranatha!" "Please Come, Yahshua!"

It began with: “Part One: A Celestial “X” Marks An Ominous Spot In History.” Both articles are based on Helena Lehman’s “Language of God Series” Books (see: http://pillar-of-enoch.com/language_series/) available for purchase at www.amazon.com, and http://pillar-of-enoch.com.

In 2007, several major celestial events occurred to strengthen my interpretation of the heavenly signs that appeared a decade earlier - in 1996 and 1997. Incidentally, 1997 was only two years before the close of the 6,000 years allotted for mankind that have elapsed between Adam’s creation, and the end of the Church Age. This Age ended on Rosh Hashanah, September 11th, 1999 - on the same day as the Terrorist attack that occurred two years later in 2001- at the World Trade Center in New York.

The first celestial event in 2007 was the appearance of the extremely brilliant Comet named McNaught, which appeared in the sign of Sagittarius early in January. Interestingly, the centaur/archer symbol for Sagittarius signifies Christ coming to conquer Satan, sin and death via the Cross at His First Advent, and the amazingly long tail of Comet McNaught looked like the giant sword that Christ will wield in triumph when He returns in Glory.

As if in anticipation of that same event, another Lunar Eclipse occurred on Purim - at around midnight on March 3, 2007 - which was very similar to the one on Purim in 1997. Only this time, the eclipse occurred in the sign of Leo, the Lion - a symbol for the Lion of Judah, who is Christ. As such, Leo represents Christ coming to assume His role as the King of Israel at the end of the Great Tribulation. At that time, Christ will conquer Israel’s enemies, and set up His Millennial Reign on Earth. Before discussing the last celestial sign of 2007, it is interesting to note that the Feast of Purim represents the struggle of Israel against being either assimilated, or destroyed by her enemies.

In modern times - since there is an ever-growing awareness among Christians of their Jewish roots - Purim has taken on a great deal of significance to Christians, as well as Jews. In fact, in addition to the victory of the Jews over the evil Vizier Haman in Persia, Purim now represents the desire of Christians to retain their uniquely Christian way of life, and to find protection from martyrdom. In consequence, Purim clearly symbolizes the current ideological war between the Middle East and the West - a war that is a much larger reflection of the unsettling events which led to the first Purim that was celebrated in ancient Persia (i.e. Iraq) over 2,500 years ago. A detailed overview of what Purim means for Christians can be found in my book, “The Language of God in Humanity.” (see http://pillar-of-enoch.com/Language_of_God_in_Humanity/)

This leads us to discuss the final heavenly sign that occurred toward the end of 2007. Between October 23 and 26, 2007 - and right around the time of the pagan Samhain festival known as Halloween - Comet Holmes grew from a very dim magnitude 17 to a very bright magnitude 2.8. This change in brightness occurred when the comet was near to the bright star named Mirfak (which is also erroneously labeled Al Genib) in Perseus. At that time, the sword-like tail of Comet Holmes was pointing directly toward the Earth - making the comet’s tail appear to disappear, and thus making the comet temporarily look like a bright new star in Perseus.

Though Comet Holmes has faded markedly in brilliance since October of 2007, it has remained in the constellation Perseus since then, slowly doing a big retrograde loop through it. Now - just as Comets Hyakutake and Hale-Bopp did a little over a decade earlier - Comet Holmes will cross directly over the star Al Ghoul in Perseus on January 22nd, 2008, and it would be remarkable if the comet flares up again in brightness around that date. But even if it doesn’t, could Comet Holmes still be in Perseus for a reason? And is there some significance to three comets visiting the sign of Perseus in the past decade?

In order to understand what this unusual comet crossing might signify, look at my illustration entitled “Orion, Auriga, Perseus, and Aries Treading Satan Underfoot.” In it, note that the very first prophecy in the Bible - Genesis 3:15 - is repeated many times in this section of the Gospel in the Stars. Also, note that Perseus is just one of many Christ-figures in the Zodiac. In fact, Orion, Auriga, and Aries all serve as dualistic representations of Christ’s varied roles throughout history.

In Genesis 3:15, it says:

“He (i.e. Yahshua, a.k.a. Jesus) shall bruise you (i.e. Satan) on the head, and you (i.e. Satan) shall bruise Him (i.e. Yahshua) on the heel.”

This prophecy signifies that Christ will defeat the Antichrist, and his evil followers by crushing Satan’s “head,” or the seat of his power, which currently appears to be located in Africa and the Middle East, but will later encompass all of Africa, the Middle East, Europe, Russia, and the United Kingdom. These nations will unite to form an unholy alliance that will be touted as the Kingdom of God. However, it will not be Christ, but rather the Antichrist who will rule this worldly kingdom in disguise. In support of this, Genesis 3:15 indicates that Satan will hurt Christ by allegorically biting Christ’s people in the heel, or fatally wounding them, just as the adder of the Tribe of Dan will bite the horse’s heels:

“Dan shall be a serpent by the way, a viper by the path, that bites the horse's heels so that its rider (the Church) shall fall backward.” - Genesis 49:17 (NIV)

The prophecies in Genesis 3:15 and Genesis 49:17 can clearly be seen in the way the Christ-figure Perseus’ left foot rests over the Pleiades in Taurus the Bull, or dual Unicorn. Note here that the horse in Genesis 49:17 signifies the flying horse Pegasus, which also can be seen in the unicorn, and bull symbols used to signify the USA, the UK, and the EU. Meanwhile, the serpent and viper referred to as coming from the Tribe of Dan are the terrorists in the Middle East who are allegorically biting the heels of Perseus’ horse, Pegasus (i.e. the West).

Now, the Pleiades star cluster has a cup-like shape formed by six stars, which resembles the shapes of two constellations formed by seven prominent stars. These are the Big Dipper, or Ursa Major representing the True Church, and the Little Dipper, or Ursa Minor, which signifies the Apostate, or Antichristian Church. Thus, the rider allegorically seen in the Pleiades is none other than a symbol for the Seven Churches of Revelation!

Interestingly, the Pleiades are known as the Seven Sisters, even though only six of the “sisters,” or stars are currently visible with the naked eye. In ancient times, however, it appears that there were seven bright stars in the Pleiades instead of six, but one of these stars has faded markedly since then. This has given rise to myths that one sister was separated from her other sisters for some reason, but would one day be re-united with them. This suggests that the Pleiades has a duality to it, and represents something good (signified by the number 7) that will metamorphose into something evil (signified by the number 6), and then revert again into something good. Could it therefore be that, just as the Seven Sisters myth indicates, one of the Churches of Revelation (the Church of Philadelphia, or brotherly love) is to be taken in the Rapture, while the other six are to be left behind to suffer through the Great Tribulation? This seems to be a likely interpretation, and one that the Western nations should be paying heed to because of their involvement in the Middle East.

In the Star Gospel, Perseus also has two roles. In one, Perseus is Christ coming to slay Satan, that evil being who turns people’s hearts to stone - just as the gorgon Medusa turned people’s entire bodies to stone. In addition, Perseus signifies Christ trampling on the dead bodies of His enemies, as seen in Perseus’ foot over the Pleiades. In fact, the myth of Perseus riding Pegasus depicts the truth that Christ will one day ride to victory on a white horse when He returns to end the Battle of Armageddon! Sadly, however, the Antichrist will try to mimic Christ as a mighty king and conqueror, and his armies will cut off the heads of many Tribulation Saints (see Rev. 20:4) before his own head is cut off, and he and his armies are totally destroyed.

It is interesting to note here that two Bible passages seem to refer to the Perseus constellation by its Hebrew name “Peretz,” specifically in reference to Christ’s triumphant return. These are:

“I will surely assemble all of you, O Jacob, I will surely gather the remnant of Israel; I will put them together… like a flock in the midst of their pasture; they shall make a loud noise because of so many people. The one who breaks open (Allah Peretz) will come up before them; they will break out, pass through the gate, and go out by it; their king will pass before them, with the LORD (Yahweh) at their head.” - Micah 2:12-13 (NKJ)

“The Portion of Jacob (i.e. Christ) is not like them, for He is the Maker of all things; and Israel is the tribe of His inheritance. The LORD of hosts (Yahweh Tsavout) is His name. You are (i.e. Israel) My battle-ax and weapons of war: for with you… I will destroy kingdoms; With you I will break in pieces the horse and its rider; with you I will break in pieces the chariot and its rider…” “ ‘And I will repay Babylon (Iraq) and all the inhabitants of Chaldea (Iran) for all the evil they have done in Zion in your sight,’ says the LORD. ‘Behold, I am against you, O destroying mountain, who destroys all the earth,’ says the LORD. ‘And I will stretch out My hand against you...’ ” - Jeremiah 51:19-22, 24-25 (NKJ)

Now, note that - in the first Scripture from Micah - “the remnant of Israel” refers to the modern nation of Israel, which is filled with people that have been re-gathered from all the nations. In addition, they are called God’s “battle ax,” meaning that both the literal nation, and the spiritual kingdom of Israel will be utilized as weapons against God’s enemies. This is why the term “Allah Peretz,” which is translated as “the one who breaks open,” is used to refer to Christ! God’s Son is indeed the “Allah Breaker,” who will vanquish the terrorists who follow their Allah, or God!

In this case, Allah - by virtue of his fomenting of war and hate against God’s chosen people Israel - is being recognized in Scripture as Satan. In addition, in the Scripture from Jeremiah, note that the term “break in pieces” refers to the breaking action of Perseus the Breaker against God’s enemies, who are identified as Babylon, or modern-day Iraq, and Chaldea, or Iran, but which encompass all Muslim or Atheist-dominated nations with a hatred for the West. This supports what I have written about regarding Psalm 108 as a prophecy showing that the West will be victorious over much of the Middle East during a coming battle in 2008 or 2009. But be warned! This is not the Battle of Gog and Magog (or the Battle of Armageddon), but a lesser battle that will lead to a false peace, and the visible presence of the Antichrist in world affairs - though he will not be in control of the world yet. After this war, and false peace, there will be a brief, but powerful world religious revival, and then the Rapture will come.

Sometime after the secret snatching away of the saints known as the Rapture of the True Church, the dreaded battle variously known as World War III, Armageddon, the Apocalypse, or the Battle of Gog and Magog will occur. This is when the Pleiades will take on its dual role as a symbol for evil, and will represent the Harlot called the Woman (or Church) who rides the Beast (i.e. Taurus the Bull) in the Book of Revelation. This Woman signifies the unholy ecumenical alliance that has already formed between Protestant, Catholic, Buddhist, Hindu, Wiccan, and New Age congregations. Some people in these congregations will blindly ally themselves with the Antichrist after the Rapture, while many people in the same congregations who were left behind will recognize, and reject the leadership of the Antichrist. After they do, they will form a resistance movement against the Antichrist, and his evil global government. These rebels will become the Tribulation Saints - many of whom will be martyred for their faith in that final End Time hour, but will later be rewarded by Christ for their courage in the face of overwhelming persecution.

Now, since Sacred Astronomy is a method of determining what God’s Will is during any point in history, I began to look for possible correlations between celestial events, and world political and religious events from 1996 through 2007 that affected both Gentile and Jewish Israel, and the nation called Israel that - along with the USA - is so hated by radical Muslims. What I found is nothing less than shocking, since the Iraqi Disarmament Crisis began in March 1996, and continued through 1997. In addition, Osama Bin Laden declared Jihad, or Holy War against the United States in August of that same year, and Israel agreed to relinquish control of the Israeli-settled Gaza Strip to the Palestinians.

Even before that, in 1995, Israel turned over the West Bank - including the once Christian town of Bethlehem - to the Palestinians. Then they relinquished the Gaza Strip to the Palestinians in 1997. Interestingly, Joseph’s tomb is in the Gaza Strip, which includes a region of Israel that once belonged to the Half-Tribe that sprang up from Joseph’s younger son Ephraim. In my book, “The Language of God in Prophecy,” (see http://pillar-of-enoch.com/Language_of_God_in_Prophecy/) I show how the term “Ephraim” pertains directly to the United States of America in Bible prophecy. In support of this connection, the building covering Joseph’s tomb was brutally destroyed by the Palestinians in the year 2000 - just one year before Terrorists destroyed the Twin Towers in New York. Then, in 2003, the Palestinians destroyed the carved stone covering Joseph’s grave.

The destruction of Joseph’s tomb in the region of Israel called Shechem was no accident, but was a symbolic gesture showing the hatred of the Palestinians, and many other radical Muslims toward the modern people of Ephraim. Though Ephraim prophetically signifies Christ’s born-again disciples around the world - it especially represents the saints in America who are outspoken in their support of the nation of Israel!

At the close of 2007, the USA-led war in Iraq that began under the Bush Administration in 2003 was still raging, though this wars’ end may be in sight - in light of the upcoming 2008 presidential elections in the USA. In addition, the November 27th Annapolis Peace Conference in Maryland, which attempted to bring an end to the ongoing Arab-Israeli Conflict of the last century, has come to nothing. This suggests that - as discussed in one of my earlier articles about the prophecy in Psalm 108 - a showdown is coming in either 2008 or 2009 that will be between the United States (along with Israel, and her other Western allies), and the Middle-East.

Ominously, as a sign of troubling times to come for the United States, it was discovered that the tomb of Joseph had been even more savagely vandalized by late 2007. In fact, the Palestinians living in Shechem - who likely know the alleged significance of Joseph’s son Ephraim in Bible Prophecy - had contemptuously turned Joseph’s tomb into a smoking, malodorous garbage pit. Indeed, they show no signs of stopping this outrageous breach of decency, and are continuing to fill it with ever-more burning heaps of garbage. To me, this situation is appalling. I find it hard to believe that the Palestinians could so shamelessly desecrate the tomb of one of the greatest patriarchs in the Bible - despite their hatred of the USA! It’s simply untenable!

Thank God that Yahshua (Jesus) will most certainly bring strong judgment and destruction upon the Palestinians, and everyone else who hates Israel, and refuses to repent of their sins in the very near future.
