Heaven Bound

Have you seen the strange winged creature known as Oculus that sits at the base of the One World Trade Tower?  Just recently completed, it will serve as a transportation hub for the World Trade Center and is designed (according to Wikipedia) with a space at the top which will open each year like an eye during the autumn equinox allowing a shaft of sunlight to shine in illuminating the footprints of the world trade towers in commemoration of 9/11. It is also designed with wings supposedly representing a bird in flight.

The word oculus comes from the latin and means eye.. In architecture, it is the term used for a circular opening, especially of the apex of a dome.

It’s kind of interesting, when I googled the term (oculus) I  found that it is also the name of a  virtual reality company whose goal (according to the article) is to design equipment making it possible to “experience anything, anywhere through the power of virtual reality”.

Wow, can you imagine how this would change the perception of just about everything? And this is not science fiction – this is now.

EYES

The Bible has a lot to say about eyes. So does the occult.  From the ancient Egyptians with their eye of Horus, eye of Ra to the mystery and esoteric religions that after many centuries still exist today, the eye has long been an important symbol in representing the goals toward which they have long been working. Here we see the eye or oculus positioned at the top of the dome in this Masonic symbol . We also see it every day (or at least here in America, we do) on the back of the one dollar bill.

It is also a popular symbol in pop culture today. You see it every where. The pyramid around the eye or the covering of one eye leaving only one eye exposed.

Why the Eye?

As you can see, the eye is an important symbol to the mystery religions and will ultimately be used in the establishment of the new world order. But, why the eye? Why has this become the primary symbol.  Good question!

In my study over the years, I have come to recognize that it has long been the goal of the evil one (Satan) to take for himself any thing that belongs to God in order to bring glory to himself  He is a liar in the first degree and comes as the Bible tells us in John 10:10 only to “steal, kill and destroy.”  Therefore, if the eye is an important symbol to him – and the Bible has a lot to say about eyes – we might want to ask ourselves why.

Jesus said in Matthew 6:22 –

 “The eye is the lamp of the body. If your eyes are healthy your whole body will be full of light”

Interesting. The eyes, the lamp of the body. According to Jesus, it is only when the eyes are healthy that the body is full of light. In other words, spiritual wholeness. Something that can only happen when Jesus is that light. Any other light is not light at all – but darkness – and darkness disguised as light is the worst deception of all.

A Speck in the Eye

I have to give my daughter Seven Stars credit for this. The subject came up the other day based on an incident that happened in the middle of the night when my four year old granddaughter came in to her moms room crying and complaining that there was something in her eye. She had it so tightly closed that it was near impossible to get her to open it until she calmed down. By then her tears had washed away anything that might have been irritating her eye. For  as we all know, it only takes a tiny speck in the eye to cause serious discomfort.

The Eye of God

Have you ever thought that God might have an eye?  Figuratively speaking, we know that he does. Many verses support this. For example –

“For this is what the Lord Almighty says: ‘After the glorious one has sent me against the nations that have plundered you – for whoever touches you (Israel) touches the apple of his eye. Zechariah 2:8

“For the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to show Himself strong  on behalf of those whose heart is loyal to Him. ….2 Chronicles 16:9

We know from the Bible that God is Spirit so the eye (as mentioned above) is figurative.  But, what if something in creation, something he created was the tangible expression of that eye?

To follow this line of thinking, lets go back to Genesis chapter 1 where God seperates the waters above from the waters below – at the center of which dry land  (and seas) appeared.

The earth is said to be made up of 70% water. I could not find an exact calculation of the percentage of water that makes up the eye but, it would (according to one source) be 50 % or greater. So in essence, we could call earth his eye.  Think of it this way – the waters above as the upper lid, the waters below as the lower lid and the dry land at the center as his pupil.

So, when God separated the waters – in a symbolic sense – the eye opened.

Which would make sense. For as the pupil is the center of the eye so is Israel and the accompanying lands of the Bible, the center of the world.

According to the Institute for Creation Research in an article by Henry Morris titled, “The Center of the Earth”  it has been calculated that Israel and the Bible lands themselves comprise the center of the earth.

“The exact center of the earth, insofar as Mr. Woods calculations could determine was found to be near Ankara, the present capital of Turkey at latitude 39 degrees and longitude 34 degrees on the same latitude as Mount Ararat and the same longitude as Jerusalem….. However there is no explicit statement in the Bible requiring the earth’s enter to be precisely at Ararat or Babel or Jerusalem, all of the implications of scriptures in this regard are satisfied if the  center is somewhere in these Bible lands, Interestingly, the earths center at Ankara together with Jerusalem. Ararat and Babylon form an almost perfect square.”.

When God sent the flood in Genesis to wipe out the wicked generation, the blood line defiled by Nephilim, he in essence flooded the eye (his eye – the earth)  with water – closing the eye you might say. For the waters which had once been separated to bring forth dry land now converged to cover every inch of land on the surface of the earth. On these waters a tiny little speck, a wooden ark floated about until dry land once again appeared.  God in his mercy tolerated this event as a speck in his “eye” because although Noah was found righteous in his generation (untainted by Nephilim) he was still a sinful man.

This lends itself to Jesus words when he speaks of a speck in the eye.

“Why do you look at the speck in your brothers eye but do not notice the beam or log in your own eye?”  Matthew 7:3

Never To Be Flooded Again

And we see this time after time in scripture God establishing dry land in the midst of the waters.  A typology or commemoration you might say of the very important event of the flood. Which by the way – God vowed never to do again. Flood the earth – i.e. close his eye or eyes. And, he kept that promise. Even when his son was on the cross God did not close his eyes, but rather turned his back or looked away.

Here are some examples of “dry land” appearing out of the water. As you can see it is an important Biblical concept for we see it over and over again.

1 -At the Exodus – Dry land appeared when the Red Sea was parted facilitating the escape of the Israelites from the Egyptian army.

2- Crossing the Jordan – When the Israelites crossed the Jordan God piled up the waters so that the people crossed over on dry land.

3- The infant Moses – his basket floated in the midst of the river until it was retrieved out of the water by Pharaohs daughter bringing it to dry land.

4- Noah’s ark coming to rest on dry land in the six hundred and first year after the land began to dry.

And more, the ax head that floated on the water, Jesus being baptized in the midst of the Jordan, Jesus and Peter walking on water, John receiving the Revelation from the Island of Patmos in the middle of the sea. Jonah coming up from the deep, (a place symbolic of rebellion) where he was spit by the great fish on to dry land.  Water and blood flowing from the side of Jesus after he was pierced – symbolic of the blood and water on which  Noah’s ark had floated  – just as Jesus, our ark hung on a cross of wood,  and the healing of the blind man with a combination of dirt and spittle (land established in the midst of the waters, you might say.  The opening of the eyes.

(And these are just a few examples  God working in the midst of the waters .. establishing dry land.

The Opening of the Third Eye – Illumination

You will notice that the Bible always speaks of God in the plural when it comes to eyes – in other words, two eyes.  In the occult, you will always see it as one eye. That is because the evil one recognizes that the earth is a symbol of God’s watchful eyes.  He mocks this by utilizing the symbol of the one all seeing eye – like the one on the back of the dollar bill. We are told that this symbolizes the watchful eye of Providence but this could not be further from the truth for the eastern, esoteric and mystery religions will always use one eye as the symbol of illumination which Lucifer, the angel of light would have you to believe is him.

It has become popular in recent years for celebrities to pose with just one eye exposed in recognition of this new age/old lie concept. Illumination by way of the mystery religions.

When Adam and Eve sinned, the Bible says that there eyes were opened  – opened to the knowledge of good and evil. God like any good parent never intended for the crown of creation, the two made in his very own image – to know anything of evil, wickedness or sin. The devil though has convinced people that this was a good thing – the opening of their eyes -sin.  For in their opinion, or as they would have you believe – God was holding out on the good stuff – knowing that if their eyes were opened – they would be like him – like gods!

The Twinkling of an Eye

After the flood, God (as mentioned before) promised that he would never again destroy the world by water – he would never again close his eye or eyes. (Remember this is figurative – when the water flooded the earth it was as if his eye had closed).  Which is why he makes the point of saying in Psalm 121:4-5:

“He who watches Israel never slumbers nor sleeps, the Lord watches over you, he is your shelter right by your side”.

Did you get that? God never closes his eyes. He never sleeps. He never will.  For this reason, it is assured that Israel will never be destroyed. Nor will we. Our salvation (like theirs) is assured for as God’s eyes are always on them – as they are always on us. This is like the Israelites crossing over the Jordan in to the promised land  – there God parted the waters in order for them to cross over on dry land. The water could never overtake them. Just as in Genesis God separated the waters from the waters in order for dry land to appear. And, so it is because what is man but dust — dry land out of the water.

But there is a day coming that the occult world is eagerly waiting for. They know God will never close his eyes ….. but they also know something else is about to occur which they believe will give them the edge. God’s eye is going to blink. And when it does they will be ready.

You have probably heard of the term eyes wide shut. This is the world of the occult. A world of mystery, lies, secrecy, masks, disguises and deception. But one day – when God blinks – that closed eye will open. This is what the Oculus at the World Trade Center represents and is waiting for – a precise time to open – remember, it can only open during the autumn equinox. So, it is with the revealing of the anti-Christ.- it awaits a specific moment in time – in other words, the rapture – the blinking of God’s eye and before you say God would never blink his eye, consider this –

“In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump, for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible and we shall be changed”. 1 Corinthians 15:52

Is a twinkling faster than a blinkling – how fast can you blink an eye?  Uh-huh and just like we are waiting for this day – so are they.

A Question of When

The autumn equinox is a highly occult period of time. I found this in an article titled “The Spiritual Meaning of the Autumn Equinox” –

“The autumn equinox is a mysterious time. It marks an essential passage in the process of enlightenment that is often overlooked, misunderstood and mistaken as dark and heretical ….

 ” …. What was known by the ancients is the part darkness plays in the work of spiritual transformation” –

Did you get that? Known by the ancients. The mystery religions. The part darkness, sin and rebellion (in their twisted minds) play in the world of spiritual transformation. Without which according to their logic there can be no enlightenment or illumination.

It is my humble opinion based on the position of the Oculus at the World Trade Center we are very close to the time that both of us are waiting for.

DESTROYED BY FIRE

Epilogue:  One day this old sin corrupted earth will be destroyed by fire. Never again by water for as it says in Revelation 19:12 –

“His eyes were like a flame of fire. and on His head were many crowns. He had a name written that no one knew except himself.

His eyes a flame of fire. I have a feeling when the time comes (for burning up the earth- in order to create a new heaven and earth)  that God won’t be in need of borrowing a match …… what do you think?

• Due to length I have not touched on everything that could be said regarding this topic but I hope I have at least provided some food for thought. The day is coming soon when Jesus will return for those who are his. Don’t be caught up in the lie that spiritual transformation is through anyone or anything but him. Jesus, said “You must be born again”.  It is only through the new birth that one can have health or wellness of the soul. All other paths lead to darkness and certain destruction. Be sure that when the time comes for crossing over Jordan (passing from this life) that you are crossing over on dry land — that land, that rock is Jesus.

“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
