Cephus the king or King Jesus
Rev. 19:13 “He was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.”
Isaiah 63:2-3 “Why are you red in your apparel, and your garments like him that treads in the winefat?
I have trodden the winepress alone; and of the people there was none with me: for I will tread them in mine anger, and trample them in my fury; and their blood shall be sprinkled upon my garments, and I will stain all my raiment.”
Cephus the King: Redeemer coming to rule.
Here we have the presentation of a glorious king, crowned, and enthroned in the highest heaven, with a scepter in his hand, and his foot planted on the very Polar Star itself.
[The Witness of The Stars by E. W. Bullinger, D.D.]
àHe has a crown but I don’t see the miter of Dagon, the fish god, on his head!
Rev. 22:16 “Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star.”
Rev. 2:24-28 “he that overcomes, and keeps my works unto the end, to him I will give power over the nations: And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers: even as I received of my Father. I will give him the morning star.”
Marilyn said: Saturn, the planet, will be a morning star on May 5, 2013, Ascension Day.
The Sun is a bright star and comes up every morning!!!!! God created the sun, moon and stars on the fourth day but didn’t say to worship them. They were to give light on the earth and give us our time-clock, calendar and seasons. Jesus is called our bright and morning star: not Saturn. Many of the planets and one in particular star, Sirius, has a heliacal rising with the Sun that is used to calculate the length of our year.
Fomalhaut is the bright star in this constellation [in Arabic] Piscis Australis (The Southern Fish), the mouth of the fish. Aquarius is pouring water into the mouth of the big fish. Aquarius, the Water Bearer, the one who goes and returns he it is that pours the blessings forth for the redeemed of the Lord. We, the believers are represented by this fish.
We are now in what they call the ‘Age of Aquarius’ for the sun now moves through Aquarius at the time of the spring equinox, which means equal day and equal night: calculated from dawn to dusk and dusk to dawn giving 24 hours total. Some calculate from sun-up to sundown for 12 hours each but that gives you unequal day and night hours. February 21, 2013 is the equinox.
So, how does this one sitting on a white horse go conquering?
Answer: By His Holy Spirit. He conquers in the name of peace.
Jesus said; “Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world gives, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.” [John 14:27]
The Pope is not sitting on a white horse!!!! But Jesus is.
Pope Leo XIII [1878-1903] said: "We hold upon this earth the place of GOD ALMIGHTY."
Pope Gregory IX [1227-1241] said: "Wherefore, if those things that I do, be said to be done not of man, but of God; what can you make me but GOD".
Pope Benedict signed a peace agreement with the Muslims on April 27, 2009. He has visited them and prayed toward Mecca with them in Istanbul's Blue Mosque. He has visited the Dome of the Rock to pick out a place for his throne there. Lately, he has been given a seat in the Upper Room in Jerusalem. He wants to be head of all religions, not just Christians.àRev. 6:4 “There went out another horse : it was a red: horse and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword.” [crossed swords?] I suspect this is the antichrist but he went out long before 2009 AD. John the revelator or John the beloved said there were already many antichrists in his time.
1 John 2:18 “Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time.”
In the Book by E. W. Bullinger, page 63, it gives the Greek word Toxotes, the archer, for the bow, bow means Sagittarius in Latin and is pointing to the red heart of the Scorpion called Antares [Arabic for wounding]. So Bullinger references the bow to the constellation Sagittarius and Matthew Henry references the bow to the Holy Spirit. His is the first choice!!!!
But Bullinger says the constellation Cephus is the crowned king whose vesture has been dipped in blood. Jesus was crucified for our sins and he conquered the enemy and arose from the dead almost 2,000 years ago: We have already been SET FREE. Past Tense.
Bullinger says; Cepheus (The King) is their redeemer coming to Rule. Here we have the presentation of a glorious king, crowned and enthroned in the highest heaven, with a scepter in his hand, and his foot planted on the very Polar Star itself (Al Ruccaba), the turned or ridden on, and is today the Polar or central star, which does not revolve in a circle as does every other star, but remains, apparently, fixed in its position. But though the star does not revolve like the others, the central point in the heavens is very slowly but steadily moving.
When these constellations were formed the Dragon possessed this important point, the star Tuban in Draco: The first polar star was Tuban, second Kocab, third Al Ruccaba (Polaris) in the Little Dipper or Lesser Fold. [by E. W. Bullinger]
Lest we forget David the king of all Israel said: Psalm 19:1-4 “To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament shows his handiwork. Day unto day utters speech and night unto night shows knowledge. There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard. Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them has he set a tabernacle [ecliptic/path] for the sun.”
Ecliptic is a path. A path is a course along which something travels or moves.
Conclusion: Since the Sun moves along a path it is not stationary. The Earth is Fixed in the center of the Universe and everything else circles around it
Job says; “He stretches out the north over the empty place, and hangs the earth upon nothing.” [Job 26:7] The Earth was created on the first day and the Sun, Moon and Stars and Planets on the fourth day.
God garnished the Heavens/Firmament with lights as we garnish the Christmas Tree with lights. Hanukkah is the Festival of Lights and that is the time that Mary was visited by the angel Gabriel: The enunciation of the incarnation of the Messiah the Savior of the world. His birth came exactly 9 months later. At the fall equinox ?
Isaiah 40:22 “It is he [God] that sits upon the circle of the earth, and the inhabitants thereof are as grasshoppers; that stretches out the heavens as a curtain, and spreads them out as a tent to dwell in:”
Ezekiel 1:4 “I looked, and, behold, a whirlwind came out of the north, a great cloud, and a fire enfolding itself, and a brightness was about it, and out of the midst thereof as the color of amber, out of the midst of the fire.
Zech. 2:5 “For I, says the Lord, will be unto her a wall of fire round about, and will be the glory in the midst of her.”
Rev. 4:3 “He that sat was to look upon like a jasper and a sardine stone: and there was a rainbow round about the throne, in sight like unto an emerald.”
Matthew 24:37 "as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be."
Jesus made a New Covenant with the many in the midst of Passion Week when he was crucified. It was confirmed three days later when he arose from the dead. His price for our Salvation was accepted. That second bow was a renewed rainbow in the form of the Holy Spirit. "he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week " [Daniel 9:27] And the Holy Spirit came down as tongues of fire in the 70th week of days at Pentecost.
God has given us many signs and wonders. It's all there in the Word of God. Trust only the Holy Spirit for interpretation. He says WATCH.
This has been my interpretation through the WORD. I always question others prognostications and go to the WORD. I'm quite often surprised by those men of the cloth--no matter the denomination and high education.. Because of that high education other people tend to take their word without going to God's Word.
You have to read the whole thing to be able to put His great puzzle together. But God is going to make the final choice for whom he gives the last piece of the puzzle just like Daniel says; "he changes the times and the seasons: he removes kings, and sets up kings: he gives wisdom unto the wise, and knowledge to them that know understanding: He reveals the deep and secret things: he knows what is in the darkness, and the light dwells with him." [Daniel 2:21-22]
WOW ! My treatise for the day. I hope somebody gets blessed. Actually I always do as I search the Scripture. Five Doves is always giving me something to research. I've been into prophecy research for almost 60 years. I must be way over-the-hill. I should jump up, jog around the block to clear my head and give you a break. ;o) If it would just stop raining in Roswell. Love you all. jfh [Jeanne]
