STORY II
TO
READ THE STORY OF THE JEWISH MESSIAH YOU WILL NEED TO START WITH
CHAPTER I. WHY? BECAUSE THIS 12 PART STORY WRITTEN IN THREE CHAPTERS FOLLOWS
THE JEWISH CALENDAR WHICH BEGINS IN SEPTEMBER (BEGINNING WITH VIRGO AND
ENDING IN LEO). IT IS TOLD MONTH BY MONTH THROUGH THE HEBREW 'MAZZAROTH'
- (A CROWN OF 12 STARS IN THE SKY) - AND THE ANCIENT NAMES OF THE STARS
THEMSELVES (PRE CHRISTIAN ERA) WHICH OLD TESTAMENT SCRIPTURAL REFERENCES
CONFIRM.

The HEAVENS DECLARE the GLORY
of GOD
PSALMS
19:2-6
2 The heavens declare the
glory of God; the sky proclaims its builder's craft. 3 One day to the next
conveys that message; one night to the next imparts that knowledge. 4 There
is no word or sound; no voice is heard;5
Yet
their report goes forth through all the earth, their message, to the ends
of the world. God has pitched there a tent
for the sun; 6 it comes forth like a bridegroom from his chamber,
and like an athlete joyfully runs its course …..

the Mazzeroth (read left to right)

Constellations of the Zodiac,
tell the story of the coming
Jewish Messiah
THE ANCIENT HEBREW 'MAZZAROTH'
TELLS A REMARKABLE STORY IN THE SKY. THIS STORY IN THE STARS PRE DATES
THE CHRISTIAN ERA, YET THE STORY IS ABOUT THE COMING OF THE MESSIAH, THE
JEWISH MESSIAH. ACCORDING TO THE OLD TESTAMENT, IT WAS WRITTEN IN
THE HEAVENS BY THE HAND OF GOD. WHAT DOES 'MAZZAROTH MEAN? IT IS
A CIRCULAR 'BAND' OR 'CROWN' OF STARS DIVIDED INTO 12 CONSTELLATIONS (12
TRIBES OF ISRAEL) CALLED THE ZODIAC. ('the way' or 'the path')
+
Today the study of the
stars is called 'ASTRONOMY. (Under no circumstances does the word 'Mazzaroth'
or 'Zodiac' originate in 'Astrology'. Astrology is a deception by
the Serpent of Genesis, whose intention is to put 'strange gods' in
front of the story of 'Salvation History', the story of Him who Saves.

MARK
13: 22

if that were possible, the elect. 23 Be watchful! I have told it all to

HOW
DO BIRTH STONES FIT INTO THE 12 SIGNS?
'in the order of their
birth'.
EXODUS
28:9-12
God's instructions to Moses
for Aaron
9 "Get two onyx stones
and engrave on them the names of the sons of Israel: 10 six of their
names on one stone, and the other six on the other stone,
in the order of their birth. 11 As a
gem cutter engraves a seal, so shall you have the two stones engraved
with the names of the sons of Israel and then
mounted in gold filigree work. 12 Set these two stones on the shoulder
straps of the ephod as memorial stones of the sons of Israel. Thus Aaron
shall bear their names on his shoulders as a reminder before the LORD.
+
BREASTPIECE OF DECISION
God continues to instruct Moses,
using 12 stones each believed to have the attributes of that tribe. The
stones were often identified by their country or origin and various
bible translations do not always identify the same stones or placements.
(i.e. some translations include turquoise (Turkey), some do not.)
+
15 "The breastpiece of decision
you shall also have made, embroidered like the ephod with gold thread and
violet, purple and scarlet yarn on cloth of fine linen twined. 16 It is
to be square when folded double, a span high and a span wide 17 On it you
shall mount four rows of precious stones: in the first
row, a carnelian, a topaz and an emerald; 18
in the second row, a garnet, a sapphire and
a beryl; 19 in the third
row, a jacinth, an agate and an amethyst;
20 in the
fourth row, a chrysolite, an onyx and a jasper.These
stones are to be mounted in gold filigree work, 21 twelve
of them to match the names of the sons of Israel,
each stone engraved like a seal with the name of one of the twelve tribes."

PRAY THE BIRTHSTONE ROSARY
Instead of wearing your birthstone
as jewelry, pray your prayers on a rosary dedicated to the stone given
your month or the month of a loved one. Father Joe suggested dedicating
and praying a birthstone rosary of a loved one or family member (living
or dead). How much more personal is this response than jewelry. We are
brought into history with this prayer action. The birthstones used here
were inspired by the scripture above and standardized and designated by
the American Gem Society in 1938.
+
ONE MONTH AT A TIME
The story in the stars will
be put together one month at a time, starting with the Hebrew calendar,
September VIRGO (the Virgin) and ending with August, LEO (the Lion/Christ).
We were all born under the sign of the CROSS, but as we continue our journey,
month by month, through the sky, give the stars back to God who created
them, note His glory and His story in each of the 12 constellations.

PSALMS
115:15-16
May you be blessed by the
LORD, who made heaven and earth.
16 The
heavens belong to the LORD, but the earth
is given to us.
|
ASTRONOMY VS ASTROLOGY Why are we entering into such a controversial subject for some? 1. To remove the deception of the evil one and give back the glory to God (see Psalms 115:15 above) 2. To set our sites on our true home, the heavens above, the new Jerusalem. |
ROMANS
5: 8-11
But God proves his love for
us in that while we were still sinners Christ died for us. 9 How much more
then, since we are now justified by his blood, will we be saved through
him from the wrath. 10 Indeed, if, while we were enemies, we were reconciled
to God through the death of his Son, how much more, once reconciled, will
we be saved by his life. 11 Not only that, but we also boast of God through
our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation.

remnant of Israel; I will group them like a flock in the fold, like a herd
in the midst of its corral; they shall not be thrown into panic by men.
13 With a leader to break the path they shall burst open the gate and go
out through it; Their king shall go through before them, and the LORD at
their head.

-----==PSALM 68:20-22==-----
20 Blessed be the Lord
day by day, God, our salvation, who carries us. Selah 21 Our God
is a God who saves; escape from death is in the LORD God's hands.
22 God will crush the skulls of the enemy, the hairy heads of those
who walk in sin.

-----==PSALMS 2:7-9==-----
7 I will proclaim the decree
of the LORD, who said to me, "You are my son; today I am your father. 8
Only ask it of me, and I will make your inheritance the nations, your possession
the ends of the earth. 9 With an iron rod you shall shepherd them, like
a clay pot you will shatter them."

5: 8-11
But God proves his love for
us in that while we were still sinners Christ died for us. 9 How much more
then, since we are now justified by his blood, will we be saved through
him from the wrath. 10 Indeed, if, while we were enemies, we were reconciled
to God through the death of his Son, how much more, once reconciled, will
we be saved by his life. 11 Not only that, but we also boast of God through
our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation.

SCRIPTURE SCHOLAR SAY?
MARK 13: 22
22 False messiahs and false
prophets will arise and will perform signs and wonders in order to mislead,
if that were possible, the elect. 23 Be watchful! I have told it all to
you beforehand.
THE ZODIAC DOES NOT HAVE ROOTS
IN HOROSCOPES
What we know as the star
constellations - pictures in the night sky - are often called in English
the "signs of the Zodiac", is known in Hebrew as "the Mazzeroth", star
constellations placed by God Himself, Job 38:31; Isaiah 13:10; Amos 5:8.
This placement of the stars by God was done to tell the Gospel plan of
redemption before the Bible was put into writing. The word Zodiac is a
term used in astronomy, Job 9:9 (lb). God’s message in the stars
where the book of creation speaks to man of God's awesome power, Psalm
19:1–6 (Note words “speech,” “language,” “voice” in the text. Then compare
verses 7–13.).

THE BIBLE CONDEMNS ASTROLOGY
The science of Astronomy is
NEVER to be confused with ASTROLOGY which is fortune telling and the Bible
condemns. ASTRONOMY is the science dealing with the phenomena outside
the earth’s atmosphere but especially concerned with the observable arrangements,
motions, and characteristics of the heavenly bodies planets, stars,
asteroids and universes in space. The word “astronomy” is based on two
Greek words meaning “the law of the stars.”
+
ASTRONOMY AND ITS VALUES
Astronomy is by no means
a modern science. Human beings have always been preoccupied with the heavens.
The concern of the earliest civilizations with the universe appears to
have been mainly intellectual curiosity and the need for navigational orientation
were certainly additional factors. (Also remember the star of Bethlehem
that guided the 3 kings to the child Jesus. They have been called 'readers
of the stars', and 'astronomers'. The term astrologers is questionable)
+
WHAT DOES THE BIBLE SAY?
The Bible provides some interesting
insights about astronomy. According to Genesis 1:14–19 the sun and moon,
along with the stars, have the function of giving light on the earth, determining
the seasons, and functioning as “signs.” The word “season” may denote festal
seasons as well as the annual seasons. The Hebrew calendar was a lunar-solar
calendar similar to that of the Babylonians. Hebrew festal seasons were
based on the phases of the moon. The function of the heavenly bodies as
signs seems to relate to their delineation of the heavens, permitting human
beings on earth to orient themselves, navigate land and the high
seas and know the stars were
created by God.
MARK 7:8
'You disregard
God's commandment but cling to human tradition.'
See the 1st of the 10 commandments
(Thou shalt have no other gods before Me). Astrology is a 'Human tradition'
which puts other gods in front of the Lord (horoscopes) which comes
from the sin of pride, the sin that began in Eden.
