SEPTEMBER 11 - 17, 2011
All times/dates are PDT.
Usual, I promised this would be my keep prelude on the Bible. (I actually wrote about 30 chaotic pages on this originate, which I'll post in the "Platforms" rupture.)
Brusquely 1,000 existence behind schedule its spontaneous, Israel lay dying. It had self-destructed. Godlessness, pagan worship, sponsor testify, avidity, dissipation and sexual unscrupulousness ran by its rotted veins. So God sent Babylon, the built-up of astrologers, to hold it (nevertheless Isaiah's anti-astrology boasts). This suppression was actually a cool - Babylon took the Israelites in fetters back to the land of astrology, but contemporary it healed them. They were approved jobs, unreserved column, were endorsed to practise Judaism, to worship the very God they had disorderly in Israel, and even to stock their own prophets. One of these prophets, Daniel, was eventually ready leader lifeless all wise men and astrologers in Babylon. With the Israelites were psychically and morally healed, authorized of fending for themselves, Babylon not sole returned them to Israel, but helped them renovate their holy built-up, Jerusalem, which had declined participating in wreck, and cosseted them from their enemies in the same way as they re-established themselves. The land of astrology not sole "birthed" Israel by Abraham and Jacob, it returned to hold on to them from extinction, to re-birth them, 1,000 existence forward-looking.
Put on, circa 500 B.C., the events of the Old Memorial end.
The New Memorial begins with the spontaneous of Christ - magnificently "announced" by the Magi from the east. Creation says these Magi were from Parthia, versatile ancient Babylon - the underlying of astrology. They do what astrologers do: they stock followed a sign in the announce, a "star," to find Christ. The Old Memorial analyst Micah (Mic 5:2) foresaw that Jesus would be inherent in Bethlehem. But the astrologers go one interruption, they find the faithful technique and care for by the "star." (Mt 2: 9-11) The Magi practice three chief functions of astrology: 1) timing: they know some time ago Christ is inherent - no one to boot may perhaps inform even the century of spontaneous - 2) character/destiny: they let know and fjord that this indulge is the Christ, and 3) locational (anywhere). They even inform Herod how old Jesus is before they stock seen him. (Mt. 2:16)
Noticeably astrology is wonderful in Israel at this time - or at least thoroughly believed - for Herod, on no other clout than the Magi's say, believes the opt for "Ruler of the Jews" has clothed in - believes it so thoroughly he murders all the infants in Bethlehem and its position.
So. The chief page of the Bible begins with an astrological sanction (Ge 1:14-18, and "seventh" Ge 2:2). After that Israel is inherent from the bottom of astrology (as on view in past columns), falters and round dies 1,000 existence forward-looking, but, at the end of the Old Memorial, is rescued, healed and re-birthed by the land of astrology. After that the New Memorial begins with an diktat - by astrologers - of what requirement be, for Christians, the greatest behave on earth. In the end, the New Memorial closes with Dream, which confirms, as we've seen, that the agents and functions of astrology are concluded built-in to God than his angels. I rest my command.
