The Gospel In The Stars

The Gospel In The Stars
"The heavens declare the glory of God... Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge." Psalm 19:1 By J.R. ChurchLong before men perverted the message of the constellations and established ancient idolatry, God named the stars and set them in the heavens for signs:"And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years" (Genesis 1:14).The book of Job predates the writing of Genesis. Though it is part of the Bible, it was written about a man who lived before Moses. Job had no written Bible. The Bible this ancient pilgrim read consisted of a series of constellations that appeared in the night skies high above the earth.There are references to these constellations in the book of Job, along with an explanation of why they appear as they do in the heavens. Job 26 tells us that the "crooked serpent" is one of God's leading characters in this drama of the ages and that these constellations - these "pillars of heaven" - make up the "parts" of God's "ways":"The pillars of heaven tremble and are astonished at his reproof."By his spirit he hath garnished the heavens; his hand hath formed the crooked serpent."Lo, these are parts of his ways... (Job 26:11,13-14).These verses explain that the constellations were devised to teach early man about God's plan for redemption. In the writings of his five famous books, Moses noted that the sun, moon, planets and stars were given for "signs" (Genesis 1:14).In The Gospel in the Stars, Joseph Seiss wrote: "For ages this whole field has been almost entirely left to a superstitious and idolatrous astrology, which has befouled a noble and divine science and done immeasurable damage to the souls of men. But we here find it claimed to be a sacred domain laid out of God in the original intent of Creation itself."...Read more @ PROPHECY IN THE NEWS"JOIN THE WATCHER REPORT ON FACEBOOK!"FIGHT THE FUTURE!
