A HEAVENLY PICTUREBOOK
Was there originally a different message to be read in the signs of the Zodiac, however?
A number of remarkable books on this subject, written by Christians faithful to the Bible and very capable Bible commentators, appeared in the 19th century. They say that the whole of God’s plan of salvation was originally able to be read in the heavens. They say that the 12 signs of the Zodiac should be read beginning with the sign of Virgo – Virgin and then further, ending with the last sign, Leo – Lion. (more…)
THE STARS OF BETHLEHEM
What do the stars tell us? What message do we read in the firmament? We heard to what extent astrology was developed by Nimrod in Babel/Babylon – idolatry with the assistance of the firmament. But is there also another meaning to be derived from the firmament? What does that impressive universe, with its billions of stars and galaxies, tell us? (more…)
ONLY THE ELECT
The secret of Nimrod as the sun god and saviour of mankind was only revealed to a select few – those who had undergone initiation rites. These religions are referred to as mystery religions, in which the secrets of the sun god, Nimrod, were revealed and in which he was worshipped. These mystery religions spread quickly through the ancient world and formed the basis for the pagan religions of Assyria, India, Egypt, Greece, Rome and many other nations. They are also the basis for very many modern religions today, sometimes even shrouded in Christian garb. (more…)
MYSTERY RELIGIONS
Yet some other remarks about Nimrod and Babel/Babylon: Nimrod and his newly invented religion formed much of the thinking in the profane world of ancient times. The Bible gives us only a short account of Nimrod and the founding of Babel, but it is possible to weave this into the historical accounts of authors in Classic Antiquity, who have provided important information about this founder of Babylon and its first king. (more…)
NIMROD
Nimrod means: ‘rebel’, ‘agitator’, and ‘revolutionary’. It is said of the antichrist in 2 Thessalonians 2:4 “…He will oppose and will exalt himself over everything that is called God or is worshiped …” and in Daniel 8:25 it is said of him “…He will cause deceit to prosper, and he will consider himself superior. When they feel secure, he will destroy many and take his stand against the Prince of princes. Yet he will be destroyed, but not by human power …”
THE RELIGION OF BABEL/BABYLON
Let us now listen to what the Bible has to say ‘spiritually’ about ‘Babel-Babylon’. To make the character of ‘Babylon’ clear from the outset: Jeremiah 51:7 says: “…Babylon was a gold cup in the LORD’s hand; she made the whole earth drunk. The nations drank her wine; therefore they have now gone mad…” (more…)
Discussion has flared up again recently concerning the validity of the Old Testament promise of land since the coming of Christ. So-called Palestinian liberation theology, as expressed in particular by the Sabeel Institute, plays an important role in this respect. To put it succinctly and clearly this says, in effect, that the Old Testament finds its complete fulfilment in Christ; there are no more exclusive promises for Israel; there is therefore no more ‘promised land’ for Israel; the New Testament broadening of the promise of land brings the whole earth into focus as the domain of God’s salvation, the promise of land being fulfilled in Christ as a result; and the election of Israel ends with the coming of Christ.
