Followers (Of Christ),
I do not normally like to write on the same subject twice. Hit on an issue, then move on to the next one as there is far too much grounds to cover about the Bible, Christ and the exciting realm of the age we live with no time to waste. If you feel a sense of Deja Vu to see this is Revelations 12 again, like we have walked down this road before (before? Seems like I wrote on this before? This subject of Revelations 12?) on this same chapter subject...realize it is not the same as "repeating". The event of September 23rd, 2017 if you look up, weather and cloud cover permitting....you will see exactly what you are supposed to see. Just a bunch of stars and maybe a stiff neck later.
Thus the Deja Vu is non-pathological context, to see the similar signs and stars that ushered in the birth of Christ couple thousand years ago. With any luck here in "Dark Skies" territory, while gazing upward you will have also avoided a Rattlesnake or Black Widow at night that frequents the pine tree laden high country dessert at the foot of the Sangre De Cristo mountains at night in "dark skies" country, and frankly that is about the worst threat of anything you will face that date. In Custer County it was called Dark Skies, as the precious resources of the more poor counties, is sometimes the treasured natural resource known as "view". Not to be confused with Dark Skies of the 1800's events of thick smoke across the land, or the secretive Dark Skies preparations of the U.S. Military/NORAD, etc.. Where I write from, the view lets me see the "signs" "in the heavens" (stars, constellations) spoken of in the Bible.
If you do feel a recollection of the last blog, this type of Revelations Deja Vu is okay, I really am writing on it again, but with missing pieces to fill in at least some of the jigsaw puzzle about that prophecy. It's that good to write of. Just on some finer points I'd like to ask you think about Revelations 12, before realizing life goes on mostly as normal, but with a lot more years to come at least before other issues arise. Frankly, this is also to help relax you a touch to counteract the amount of false claims, hypes and stories circulating about Revelation 12, or even September 23rd, 2017, so you can actually enjoy viewing the stars that night in pleasure, not fear. First, I will show you some pictures below. Some will be familiar if you read my last blog article, but others might be new to you such as the Red Dragon spoken of in Revelation 12. You can either read Revelation 12:3-4 below as cited, or click the link before it that says Revelation 12:3-4 and also see the other versions.
Enter: The Dragon...(There appeared another wonder in heaven)
You hear me say how God, nor the Bible lies and it rather just takes us a bit to figure what the words and translation issues mean. Even though some of the descriptions and symbols in the Bible are so...unusual or weird in first reading at face value, that you just can't make this stuff up. The Bible really did not make stuff up either now that we are here 2000 years later we see every word rather had pin-point accuracy and meaning. Above is a picture of the presumed "Red Dragon" of Revelation 12, that while obviously is not a "literal" dragon, John the Revelator saw what Jesus had as angels/messengers show him, so ...now maybe you see why John said he saw a Red Dragon when you look at the picture. There are constellations of the serpent, and Draco (Dragon). Some things in the Bible are so difficult to make sense of, until the light bulb flicks on that they refer to stars, constellations and other things of astronomy we fail to attribute properly and that have dual meanings and often meant to identify a time period of what generation of people it speaks to. I look at the picture above, and can imagine the two black dots in the green are the eyes, or the snout of the "Dragon". Below the eyes or snout is a possible smile, but the tail covers "a third of the stars" in that region of space, and indeed, we see what may be the color red. It is simply likely what John saw, and it was a fairly decent description if you ask me. More on this picture and it's related picture later after the next picture...
Like A Virgin....
Recall the last blog(click here), I posted the Revelation 12 picture showing constellation showing Virgo clothed by the sun with moon under her foot. As the constellations move in this alignment, the "foot" of Virgo places just over the Moon. That's what happens September 23, 2017,....and the specific arrangement that will occur is a once in 7,000 year event to fulfill that specific element of Revelation 12 description of her foot with the moon under it. What is pictured above is Virgo constellation, but without the artist renderings filling in the constellation descriptions. Just plain ol Virgo. To the left lower portion of Virgo is her two "legs". Just so you know off to the far left is Michael the Archangel and the Serpent, ....as in "the heavens" and battles in heaven, etc.. To the right would be the Lion, the 12 stars (12 Tribes, 12 disciples, 12....etc..). Now, move along to see the picture below.
Again above pictured is Virgo, closer up, and between her "legs" but past the "womb" or birth canal area she figuratively birthed or ushered the coming of Christ to earth in his birth 2,000 years ago. Yet what do you see this time slight off to the left on the bottom leg (the leg that has the foot that sets on the moon on the 23rd)? You see as do I, a blacked out section with black patch to cover something up (you might need to look at this on a computer, smart phone may be too small). The blacked out patch section is what Google Sky and N.A.S.A. have been blacking out so you cant see it. Even though N.A.S.A. pictures black-out this spot in it's recent pictures, it is the very same N.A.S.A. that originally archive the pictures of the Red Dragon that I have above, and below. In other words N.A.S.A. archived the Red Dragon pictures and it is only the recent pictures that blacked it out. The original Red Dragon pictures come from N.A.S.A., before they and Google Sky and others started allegedly blacking it out. Who and why started the "blacking out"... I do not know. Nor do I know if it was done as a hoax, prank, or to suppress people from having unfounded fear or panic thinking Red Dragon is too scary to talk about. Perhaps someone thought it might trigger panic of fear (if so, they clearly do not understand it is about two different churches, those who find and follow Christ, and those who do not). Or maybe it was to eliminate any sexual innuendo of a dragon between the legs of the Virgo not wanting to "defile", pervert or let the sicko's make the perfectly natural things of creation into something "dirty". Or maybe it was to quell unreasonable conspiracy theories, or they didn't want North Korea to say it has signs in the heavens to launch an attack on our allies or the U.S.A.. Or they know something we don't...I just don't have the answers or combination of answers, but I wanted you to know as my last blog pointed out how we rarely get told "the whole story" about things. Well, this is one of those situations and we didn't get told and the Red Dragon is indeed...blacked out. For all any of us know, it was blacked out to create an artificial conspiracy theory, or....there really is a conspiracy and we haven't figured it out yet who, what and why someone might wish to "deceive the elect" on a possibly "minor detail of major significance".
Back To The Dragon...
The infra red image of the presumed Red Dragon. I recall reading about the Red Dragon as a child, and thought it must mean China and the far east military nuclear power, or some kind of Satanic church than was against Gods son Jesus Christ. The seven heads and ten horns people have been trying to figure out for the longest time, and tend to be eventually disproven. Steve Bannon after leaving the White House is actually pretty knowledgeable about China and does not believe China will rise to world top slots for about another 30 years. The challenge to trying to interpret prophecy, is paying attention to details, and to discern past context, present context...or future yet. There is also the issue of what is called "dual fulfillment" which basically implies a prophecy has a past fulfillment and a future one still to come. In the specific case of Revelation 12:3-4, I pay a great degree of focus and attention to the words "ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born" (her child was Christ). It is very clear that Virgo constellation was a past fulfillment on the birth of Christ, and that all the effort by the cast out realm battling heaven to prevent the Christ child from being born or to destroy the lineage leading to his birth failed. The darkside, the dragon, failed to prevent the birth of Christ. In this sense it is very clear that Revelation 12:3-4 has already been fulfilled, as for past context. The casting 1/3 of stars to earth has already been fulfilled long before the birth of Christ of the ones cast out of the upper realms or outer reaches of space called the heavens, to Earth.
Is there a more current context of fulfillment of prophecy? Some of the newer churches or groups of followers of Christ think so, that by escaping apostasy and false churches and then coming to the Americas, especially North America and having spiritual and church safety and refuge of the believers in the "mountains". In the mountains at last safe from future wars and disasters reducing the populations by the dark side and the dragon...that such peoples in the mountains is the current and future context already fulfilled. So there we have by past, and by current context, we have fulfillment already of victory through Christ. The Red Dragon lost on both past, and present context. Many believe the "Red Dragon" is a non-issue, and already lost and defeated in the past and that the America's and it's mountain symbology gave/give a refuge and religious freedom that defeated the efforts to persecute the followers of Christ (it calls the Saints, believe in Christ? You are the Saint it speaks of).
Is there a still yet to come future context? I have looked at the constellations showing the dragon, and serpent and horned forgetting many things have already been fulfilled, or do not recongnize yet that for future context, some things are still 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 40 years or more away. Just because something is prophecy does not mean it is "bad", "doom" or "negative". The very reason for most prophecy is to "see beyond" to the good, the hope, the outcome, the finalized result. Did not Virgo usher in the baby King Jesus? If you "dread" prophecy, you have been defeated and have your focus in the wrong area altogether, and might even be on the wrong side of future outcomes if you fear, and do not see what the prophecies point to and conclude with. Everything, absolutely everything points to Jesus and his eventual distant future coming. It is a good thing.
There are things in world events that give people heightened anxieties wondering about this specific alignment of the 23rd, is Rosh Hashanah (political state Isreal's 50th year since formed) ends September 22nd, the September 23rd alignment is the next day and the feast. And the the U.S. just now opened it's first military base in Israel (a small base inside of an Israeli military base, housing several dozens of U.S. Military Personnel for things that will augment missile defense and protection of Israel from missile and nuclear attack). The U.S. says there is no planned or specific reason for the announcing of the new U.S. Military base it was planning for two years to be announced "now". Yet it does seem awfully close to the most significant constellation event in a while that may tie to other biblical prophecies people are watching real close in a world filled with nations targeting other nations (including the U.S. and Israel). Or the increasing strength of storms, or the earthquakes. All of which has been on the rise for awhile, and will continue to do so for awhile. Anxiety maketh not a prophecy as fulfilled.
Virgo Again?
Virgo in Latin means virgin. The Christ being born of a "virgin birth" is no pun, to be born through and under the signs of the constellation called "Virgin". She is not "like" a Virgin, she was a virgin, right down to the name. The stars line up and lay out a "womb" or a "birth" area the time Christ was born, and the Red Dragon failed to stop the birth of our victor and saviour despite the battles in the heavens of outer space.Christ was born, and was created as Israel as a people with 12 tribes that we see in the 12 stars in the lion. We today see the 12 tribes as the great, essentially western nations and Israel. Have you not noticed that it is all "above" Virgo like a crown of victory and eternal convenant of how much may lay ahead for the people who follow God? If there is a meaning and fulfillment to the constellations this September 23rd, take it as a sign of future and ultimate victory in and through Christ as he prepares his eventual coming to let the human race live at a critical juntion point in history to come, and let those who cling to him through upheavals of the future, be for a thousand year period. If you get anything out of it, the signs in the heavens, let it be that and know the good is eventually coming after turbulence.
The lion, 12 stars has 9 stars and 3 that are called "roamer" stars (planets in our Solar system). When Christ was born, there was "3 wise men" "roaming" looking for him. Some scholars now say it was rather 9 Magis (also, 9 stars) looking for him. Noticing the ironies here? To find the Christ, the king, the baby King Jesus, they "followed a star" that we know as Jupiter. Jupiter, ...another irony, is called a "King star" (or King Planet)...follow the King Star to find the King Jesus. The Magis, or wisemen knew from prophecy around 3 BC on a system of King Calenders, that Jupiter was to be followed as it would be visible on the horizon going in a motion back and forth that is called "retrograde motion" due to Jupiters position of view on the horizon and the earths rotation was spinning faster that it's would make it easier to follow. That first coming of Christ, was made possible to track and predict through the Constellation of Virgo, and following Jupiter. In a matter of speaking, that Virgin has already given it's birth, the Red Dragon has already failed, we already as believers that follow Christ have our victory.
That context of fulfillment of Revelations 12 has already occurred. I find absolutely nothing, zilch, nada that append this current constellation alignment to a instant or immiennt return of Jesus Christ, or a "second coming" anytime soon at all. All due respect to others opinions, I do not see it. It is however, a strong inference it is speaking to "our generation" that Christ can return "after" these things, "after" the future events, but nothing about anything that says "now", this year, next year or even 3 1/2 years from now or 7 years from now. It does indeed portend to "soon", and I challenge you to think whether this means now, several years from now, or even sometime as far off as the 2030's.
Yes, Revelations 12 is found in the middle of the Book of Revelations that is 1-11, then 12-22 chapters. Yet, that unto itself did not create a meaning of the middle of the so called "7 year" mark that many look for. I thourally dispute peoples "7 year" fixation, as nothing more than a specific period of certain events, but does not constrict the Revelations period as 7 years at all or its prophecies to 7 years, and this is one of the things that really messes many Christians up as they try to box things in and micromanage prophecies to hw they think it is supposed to be. We all make mistakes and follow after misguided notions at times, yet fail to miss the glaring evidences that Revelations is absolutely not a "7 year guide book", and many of the things described in revelations already happened, a long time ago, such as the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki so accurately described that do not conform to the 7 year ideation thought of the timeline theories many have postulated. Jesus Christ is not returning September 23, 2017.
If you get the idea I am saying "do not pay attention too much to the stuff floating around out there about prophecy that comes to you from others",...then you are correct, I am simply encouraging you to study on your own and be your own opinion maker. Invariably, others make their cases, but ignore key pieces of scriptural evidences that disprove their claims. You would'nt know they are wrong usually, if you didnt study for yourself to know there is absolutely not a "rapture" as one of the greatest false theologies of all times that consumes the focus of American Christians, and that Jesus Christ will not return September 23, 2017. The possible benefit of September 23, 2017 is to further erode the false theologies of "rapture" and the false theologies of how "imminent" the return of Christ is. Soon per se, he will return,...but not yet. There is far too much prophecy to go through yet.
Here in Dark Skies areas I had the blessings to see a Blood Moon, a rare total eclipse, and now the"September 23rd, 2017" alignment very soon. While I can feel many peoples sense of excitement and am excited myself, there is my knowing that there is far, far too many inter-related prophecies that show we are not anywhere close to Christ...the Christ, our Christ...coming back in any immediate time frame and we still must guard ourselves from false Christ and pseudo-Christ and fake Christ and Anti-Christ(s). When can liberally dish out the word "soon"...it is just a word without a defined time set that could also mean "decades". Each and every one of these potential signs simply mean "someday soon", ..."but still later". When Christ does come, it will be to literally intervene and save the planet in the heat of it's last and final battle and cut the days short or no flesh will survive. Look at the stars on the 23rd, but also realize back here on earth we are nowhere near what Christ described will be going on that he intervenes into to save the human race.
In the meantime there is so many people we must be praying for, reaching to, ministering, helping to find Christ and learn of him more as Revelations 12 is about the battles going on of the heavens and earth where here there is only 2 types of people. Those who don't yet follow Christ with many who will not...and those who do find and follow Christ.
The Book of Revelations was not the last book written, it was simply of the 66 books decided on by others to be in cannonized text format was placed in order and arrangement in the cannonized text as last in order. Written by John the Revelator, but is regarded as one of the only Books directed and authored by Jesus Christ to John through his messengers. There is a second coming, is a ressurrection of those who die in Christ, but there is just no "rapture" as incorrectly theorized by Darby that caught on and became popular primarily in the USA for awhile, that fortunately, is dwindling in support and correct translations and understandings are starting to prevail. You are still here, and so is Gods words. The above picture brought to us from Lima Andruška from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil is one I like, as it gives us a pictoral description that Christ still stands before us, still leads us in our hearts, until that eventual day he comes again for the world to see. Revelations is well worth the read, because it comes from the words of the resurrected Jesus Christ in missive form so people will know he comes again someday.
Look for my next blog to come in couple weeks that describe more of what the Mountain Majesty Ministry is, and is becoming in our exciting age we live that looks to the future. When we do someday eventually in the future see Christ again, will it be like the title of this blog and we say "Deja Vu (non-pathological form)...I have seen this prophecy before, do I know you from somewhere Christ?". Let you answer be yes, you have seen the prophecies of Christ, and that you know him personally.
Blessings,
MMM

While I can feel many peoples sense of excitement and am excited myself, there is my knowing that there is far, far too many inter-related prophecies that show we are not anywhere close to Christ...the Christ, our Christ...coming back in any immediate time frame and we still must guard ourselves from false Christ and pseudo-Christ and fake Christ and Anti-Christ(s). When can liberally dish out the word "soon"...it is just a word without a defined time set that could also mean "decades". Each and every one of these potential signs simply mean "someday soon", ..."but still later". When Christ does come, it will be to literally intervene and save the planet in the heat of it's last and final battle and cut the days short or no flesh will survive. Look at the stars on the 23rd, but also realize back here on earth we are nowhere near what Christ described will be going on that he intervenes into to save the human race.
In the meantime there is so many people we must be praying for, reaching to, ministering, helping to find Christ and learn of him more as Revelations 12 is about the battles going on of the heavens and earth where here there is only 2 types of people. Those who don't yet follow Christ with many who will not...and those who do find and follow Christ.
The Book of Revelations was not the last book written, it was simply of the 66 books decided on by others to be in cannonized text format was placed in order and arrangement in the cannonized text as last in order. Written by John the Revelator, but is regarded as one of the only Books directed and authored by Jesus Christ to John through his messengers. There is a second coming, is a ressurrection of those who die in Christ, but there is just no "rapture" as incorrectly theorized by Darby that caught on and became popular primarily in the USA for awhile, that fortunately, is dwindling in support and correct translations and understandings are starting to prevail. You are still here, and so is Gods words. The above picture brought to us from Lima Andruška from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil is one I like, as it gives us a pictoral description that Christ still stands before us, still leads us in our hearts, until that eventual day he comes again for the world to see. Revelations is well worth the read, because it comes from the words of the resurrected Jesus Christ in missive form so people will know he comes again someday.
Look for my next blog to come in couple weeks that describe more of what the Mountain Majesty Ministry is, and is becoming in our exciting age we live that looks to the future. When we do someday eventually in the future see Christ again, will it be like the title of this blog and we say "Deja Vu (non-pathological form)...I have seen this prophecy before, do I know you from somewhere Christ?". Let you answer be yes, you have seen the prophecies of Christ, and that you know him personally.
Blessings,
MMM
