REAL Story In The Stars: Part 4 of 9

John 10:17-18

“Therefore My Father loves Me, because I lay down My life that I may take it again. No one takes it from Me, but I lay it down of Myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This command I have received from My Father.”

 

(Ancient planisphere.)

The Holy Spirit says in Genesis 1:14,  “Let there be lights in the firmament of the heavens to divide the day from the night; and let them be for SIGNS AND SEASONS, and for days and years;"  

They are for signs alright:  HE BLASTED THE AMAZING STORY OF JESUS AND HIS AWESOME WORK OF REDEMPTION ALL ACROSS THE NIGHT SKY!!!

The picture above is called a "planisphere."  It's a pictorial view of the entire story.  Church, the stars and all the constellations have been, are now and ALWAYS WILL BE ALL ABOUT JESUS.  

Don't be afraid to learn about the story just because our enemy invented a perverted version called, "astrology."  I'd like to set the record straight and restore to the Church our Father's wonderful love letter TO US ABOUT HIS BELOVED SON. 

(Constellation Victíma stabbed in the heart by Centaurus. )

The constellation Victíma tells a very important part of this riviting tale.  It shows Jesus as both the OFFERING--the Victim--AND the OFFERER--the Centaur. 

Centaurus, which is part of the story of Victíma, actually belongs to the previous grouping of constellations, Virgo being the major one. It depicts Jesus' dual nature being part man, part horse.  Centaurs are said to have "no form or comeliness that we should desire them," reminiscent of Isaiah 53:2.  

(Centaurus directly above the Southern Cross.)

His spear is aimed right at Victíma's heart.

Directly below the Centaur is the Southern Cross in the picture above. 

Our enemy, the devil, as part of his plan to confuse things, got the Romans to rename Victíma to Lupus, meaning wolf.  That name is a bit more in line with his little agenda, meaning "astrology."  Then he got the Greeks to call it Thera, which means beast.  But the Latin name, Victíma, is drawn from the earliest and most accurate meaning of this star grouping and fits in with God's narrative.  His is the only one that matters anyway. 

If you're not familiar with the gospel in the stars or think it has something to do with astrology, let me set your mind at ease. IT DOESN'T; and, as I said, astrology is a perversion.

(Jesus preached the Gospel to Abraham by recounting the story in the stars.)

Why did God write the Gospel in the stars?  Because at one time, before we had the written word, that's how it was told; by telling the celestial narrative.  That's how Jesus preached the Gospel to Abraham as it says in Galatians 3:8--He recounted the story written in the night sky!

The story is kinda like a three-act play.  Act I reveals the story of the promised Messiah, The Champion Who would come and slay the great dragon, satan.  Act 2 continues the story detailing resurrection life received. It talks about Jesus' death and resurrection, goes into the birth of the Church and talks about the enemy that relentlessly tries to shipwreck her.

Act 3 finishes the story discussing the coming Kingdom and Judgment Established when Jesus returns as the Lion of the Tribe of Judah!  

HALLELUJAH! What a day that will be! 

Here's the heart of the matter:  

The devil hates God because of what he was told in the Garden in Genesis 3.  We were made in God's image which is why ol' slimy hates us.  He hates the gospel story because believing it rescues us from his clutches.  

The reason he strikes at us is because he cannot strike at God directly so he does the next best thing:  Strikes at those whom God loves best:  US.  You see, if we still think he has power over us and over the earth, he can affect us and our families.  The REAL GOSPEL unmasks him and his evil plot.  

He also believed if he could prevent the coming of THE ONE, whoever it was, he could stop his own destruction and secure his position.  He's still at it, trying to thwart the second coming.  Yeah, like that's gonna work. That's why he wants destroy Israel thinking that will solve his problem.  Just as he UTTERLY FAILED to stop Jesus' birth, he won't succeed at his current plan.

In the constellation of Victíma we see an animal that has been slain. It is in the act of falling down in death having been slain by the spear belonging to Centaurus, which appears to have pierced it's heart.  

These twelve major Mazzarotte signs (Hebrew for Zodiac) each have three accompanying star clusters or "decans," as they are called. Each decan expands on the story of the Major constellation with which they are aligned.  In all, there are 48 constellations.

Why 12?  For the 12 tribes of Israel.  For example; Libra was the sign ascribed to Levi because they were charged with the balances of the sanctuary.  Leo, no surprise, represented Judah from whom the Lion of the tribe of Judah would come:  JESUS!   

(The twelve major signs.)

This narrative is a circular story so, in order to read it correctly, we must know where it begins.  It starts with the virgin, known by her Latin name, "Virgo," and ends with the Lion of the tribe of Judah, "Leo."

God actually protected this information by arranging to have a monument erected, in Egypt of all places, so we would know where it begins and where it ends.

In this part we'll call Act 1, God tells us of the Promise of The Coming Messiah and how it would be fulfilled.  Just look at the names of each constellation as He begins to unfold the greatest story ever told!  Even the meanings of the ancient names of individual stars enhance and uphold the tale.

(Constellation Bo-ótes.)

The first major constellation is Virgo, the Virgin.  The other three associated with her story ars "Cōmá," which means The Desired; "Centaurus," The Centaur, depicting Jesus' dual nature; and "Boótës," which means The Coming One.  

Part 2 of Act l is comprised of Libra, the major sign:  The Scales (we were weighed in the scales and found wanting); Crux: The Southern Cross, Victíma:  The Victim--which we've been discussing--and Corona:  The Crown.

(The Southern Cross)

The Southern Cross, which today can only be seen when you are south of equator, in ancient timea was visible as far north as the British Isles!  

Why is it now not in the Northern Hemisphere?  Follow the link below to read that INCREDIBLE story!

 http://emmausrevelations.blogspot.com/2014/07/the-southern-cross.html)

Virgo-the virgin, in her earliest depictions has a male baby in her lap depicting Jesus Who would be born of a virgin.  She holds in her hands ears of corn and stalks of wheat, reminding us of John 12:24--"Most assuredly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it produces much grain."

(Virgo.)

Coma-the Desired-is a woman seated with a male child standing on her lap, head slightly higher than hers.  It indicates that though she is the mother, the Child would be higher and therefore greater than her.

Centaurus-the centaur; half man, half horse, is poised directly over the Southern Cross which portrays Jesus' sacrificial death.  He is holding a spear pointed directly at an accompanying decan, "Victima," as I said, which belongs to the next group of constellations aligned with Libra.

Last of all is Boótés-the Coming One, who has a sickle in one hand and a shepherd's staff in the other.  You can see these constellations a bit clearer in the section of the planisphere below.

Together these constellations tell the story of the virgin birth of Jesus, that this "Desired One," (Cōma) would grow to maturity, having two complete natures (Centaurus) both God and man and be the One Who is offering up Himself as a willing sacrifice.  

He was also the Coming One (Bōótês) Who would die for the sins of the whole world, be the revealer of God to the whole world, full of grace and mercy, coming as Shepherd/Harvester--Boótés (bō-ótês), who has in His hand an upraised sickle.  With these implements He both protects the sheep of His flock and harvests many souls for the kingdom of God.

(LIBRA.)

The next major Mazzarotte sign, Libra, is holding the scales in her hand.  Often borrowed to depict justice, she is a picture of us who have "been weighed in the scales and found wanting."  

Being bankrupt, poor, blind and naked, we owe a debt for our sin that we cannot pay.  One side of the scale is that which is lacking to pay our debt; the other speaks of the price which is covered.  In fact, it was OVERPAID!  HALLELUJAH!

The Southern Cross is the next decan followed by Victíma with a spear pointing directly at his heart, the selfless, willing sacrifice. 

What a beautiful and touching picture of our precious Savior Who is both the OFFERER of the sacrifice and the VICTIM.  He is slayer and slain, a willing victim Who died in our place to pay the debt against us who were unable to pay.

And finally, "Corona."  It appears as a crown in the night sky.  As the scripture says in Phillipians 2:9:  "Wherefore God hath highly exulted Him and given Him a Name which is above EVERY NAME, that at the Name of JESUS every knee should bow." 

...and Hebrews 2:9:  

"But we see Jesus, Who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, CROWNED WITH GLORY AND HONOR."

See what I mean?  Just like David wrote in Psalm 19:  The heavens really DO declare your glory, Lord!  Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honor and power and might!!!  

Heartfelt thanks and endless praise to You, Jesus, for being our Victíma!
