I watched as He opened the sixth seal. And suddenly there was a great earthquake. The sun became black, like sackcloth made from goat hair, and the moon became like blood. And the stars of heaven fell to the earth, as a fig tree drops its unripe figs when it is shaken by a strong…

Now, brothers, concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and concerning our gathering together unto Him, we ask you not to let your mind be quickly shaken or be troubled, neither in spirit nor by word, nor by letter coming as though from us, as if the day of Christ is already here. Do…

Then Jesus said to His disciples, “If anyone will come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me. Matthew 16:24 In as much as Jesus is talking to His disciples present at Banias, He is also talking to you and me. This is the walk of the Christian. We…

From that time on, Jesus began to show His disciples that He must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things from the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised on the third day. Matthew 16:21 This is the beginning of a marked change in Jesus’ ministry. His ministerial focus moves…

He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?”Simon Peter replied, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”Jesus answered him, “Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but My Father who is in heaven. And I tell you that…

This is the black cube. It conveys an idea you probably have not considered. It represents one of the oldest secret religions. It is a symbol of the worship of Saturn. Saturn is just another name for the deity El. He is the bull-god of the ancients. The black cube does represent Saturn himself. As…
