Heaven Bound

   Asteroid 2015 TB145

“There will be signs in the sun, moon and stars. On the earth, nations will be in anguish and perplexity of the roaring and tossing of the sea” Luke 21:25

As if scripted by Hollywood, skull shaped Asteroid 2015 TB145 came hurtling towards earth just in time for a Halloween scare. And, while it passed within 300,000 miles of the planet (which in space terms is close), it was just far enough away to pose no real threat passing much closer to the moon than it did to us.

Thought now to be a dead comet rather than an asteroid, the 400 meter rock was discovered on October 10 by scientists in Maui, Hawaii and quickly made headlines for its eerie likeness to a human skull. Fitting I suppose for a dead comet passing our way on the spookiest night of the year.

What timing!  As if the heavens had joined in on this colossal party called Halloween. For what could be spookier than a close encounter with a skull shaped rock with the potential (should it stray off course) for wiping out a city the size of New York. And on Halloween, none the less! I tell you, you just can’t make this stuff up.

I find it interesting that this dead comet should appear unexpectedly arriving within just days of its discovery. So, much for the assurance of forewarning regarding these rogue pieces of molten rock hurtling throughout our solar system. One of which according to the book of Revelation at some point will make impact. But, I digress ……

For the timing of this one (Asteroid 2015 TB 145) to appear on Halloween with the face of a skull is highly unlikely in my opinion to be coincidence.  For this has been a year for signs.

First of all, we had the Bethlehem star configuration that appeared earlier this year. Then, the culmination of the blood moon tetrads which finished with a supermoon over Jerusalem and now the Halloween skull. Wow, that is quite a plethora of heavenly signs.

That is quite a lot in one year and when you think of all the world events playing out at this time, there is no way that this could be coincidence. And because comets have long been considered to be a bad omen, I can only wonder what the passage of a dead comet might mean, and one with the appearance of a skull to boot?

As I was thinking about this, I remembered how Jesus was crucified at the place of the skull – Golgotha.

“Carrying his own cross, he went out to the place of the Skull (which in Aramaic is called Golgotha). John 19:17

Isn’t that interesting? Jesus was crucified at the place of the skull. For a skull represents death. How fitting then that the one who conquered death would be crucified at the place of its very representation. Therefore, I can’t help but think that this sign (the skull comet) was given as a dire warning to a culture who embraces and practices death.

If Ron Reese is right, we are headed for sudden destruction and the start of the tribulation on 11/11/15. Eleven short days, I might add from the passing of this comet on October 31. (If you are not familiar with Ron’s writings, you can find them here. Just scroll down till you find the name of Ron Reese). The number 11 for those of you who might not know symbolic in the Bible of disorder, chaos and judgment.

I have to be honest here. I fear for a culture that is so steeped in death that they not only practice it but they celebrate it. My five-year old granddaughter said to her mother on the day following the blog I wrote about Halloween (which my daughter had not even read yet), She said,

“Mom, Halloween is bad. It’s not for nobody and God is not pleased.”

And, while you can chalk that up to a little girl who knows from her mother they do not participate in Halloween, what struck me was the wording. “It’s not for nobody” …. very similar to the words by which I ended my Halloween post (which she knew nothing about) where I wrote, “Halloween, it’s not just for kids any more …. it isn’t for anyone”.

I have to tell you folks that I am very concerned that we continue to practice things that God is not pleased with. He has given us multiple signs this year that should give us cause for deep thought and repentance …. and, yet the party goes on.

It’s possible that Ron is right. And if so, we have eleven days. Eleven days ….. to be ready. And, if that’s the case …..what will you do with those days? What will I do with those days?

It could be our last chance, our last opportunity to get right with God, if we have not done so already and to share with the ones we love.  A very, very serious thought.

“Pray for the peace of Jerusalem they shall prosper who love thee” Psalm 122:6

Watching and waiting with YOU for the soon return of Jesus!  Cindy
