All right, so again, welcome everyone and thanks for coming.
It's good to see everyone here.
And today I want to talk about midnight in heaven, when the heavens show what midnight is.
So, we're going to come to that, but first we have to take some steps to get there.
We've been talking in the last weeks about God's voice, how he speaks to us from heaven.
And if we look in the Bible, in the very beginning, in the creation account.
Jesus, the Bible says, and here we have the three different languages.
In Spanish you can follow there, in German, and I'll be referencing the English.
And in Genesis chapter 1, very first chapter, and in verse 14.
And God said, let there be lights in the firmament.
What's the firmament?
That's, that's the heavens above.
The firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night.
So what does that talk about?
The day we have what light?
We have the sun.
And at night?
The moon.
Most of the time.
All right.
And let them be, for what?
For signs and for seasons and for days and years.
So when God created the world, he made the lights in heaven, the sun, the moon, and the stars to serve these purposes.
Divides day and night, but also for signs and then for telling the time.
You can summarize all that, seasons, days, years.
That's all about measuring time.
But it also says for signs.
God gives signs in heaven, by using the sun, the moon, and the stars.
Now sometimes we think, oh, that's astrology, it sounds weird, but it's right here.
It's in the Bible.
There are signs in heaven.
And all throughout the Bible it talks about signs in heaven.
In the sun, the sun being darkened, the moon turned to blood.
These are all signs that we see in the heavens.
All right.
Now when we look in the heavens, what do we see?
Okay, so here is something you might see on a clear day.
You look out, you see your scenery, and there's the sun.
Okay, that's not much to look at, right?
What happens when the sun sets?
Then it goes dark, right?
Usually not quite that fast.
All right, and then we see the moon, and it's dark, and you see the stars.
Now I want you to imagine, back when God created the world, there wasn't a lot to do.
There weren't even these lights in the houses.
When it got dark, what did you do?
You weren't tired yet, because a lot of times it gets dark earlier.
So you'd probably want to look at the stars, and the stars are something that always brings wonder, awe, and amazement.
Everybody, every child wonders, what are the stars?
Why do they twinkle?
And imagine God, he created this world, and he's like a father.
Especially to Adam and Eve, it says he walked with them in the garden.
So he was much more present with them.
Today he seems more distant, we don't see him.
Thankfully, we have prayer, so we can speak to him.
But in that time, he was present with them, like a father.
And if you had your children, and you wanted to teach them, You know, what do you have in a classroom?
In a classroom, you usually have what up front?
There's a big board up front, and you have chalk, or markers, or whatever, depending on what kind of board it is, right?
Good.
So that's how God is.
He's a teacher.
He's a father who wants to teach his children, and his board, instead of being in front, is the whole of the heavens.
And so, he made all the stars, when you're looking at clouds, you see shapes.
You say, oh, that looks like a man.
Oh, I see a face, oh, look, there's a dog, you see different things.
And so, God uses the same thing with the stars.
The bright stars, those stars, they kind of look like maybe a person.
Or an animal.
For example, you have something like this.
We can use the program to help us.
It's harder when you're pointing to that star, and that star, but we can draw the lines between them.
And then you can imagine something.
If I pull this around, you can see different parts of the sky.
What does this look like?
You know, maybe you look at it one time from another way.
You say, wow, you can kind of see a person there.
Maybe pouring out some water.
Here's his legs.
He's got one arm out this way.
Another arm.
You can imagine things there, right?
Or what about this, doesn't that kind of look like a head?
And there's some ear or something there.
And a body, you can kind of see it.
It's not very clear, but there are things there.
Now, it turns out, if we look at this, here's the ground.
Normally, you only see half of the sky.
But there's an entire other half of the sky that we know it's there.
But we can't see it because of the earth, right?
But it's still there, right?
Now, that's where our program helps us, because we can take the earth away.
And now we see all the stars.
So you can even look down in the ground.
Oh, there's those stars there.
And let me just put a line here.
Here's a line that we can draw.
This shows us the path.
The path of the sun.
Because every day, the stars move a little bit.
When you look out at the same time every night you see it.
That's why they tell the seasons, because in the wintertime, you see one set of stars.
But in the summertime, you see the other set of stars, right?
And this line shows us where the sun is in any given time, right?
So with the program, we can look around.
It shows us not just the sun, but you see there's also other planets around here.
And they all follow that same line, more or less.
The sun follows it exactly, and the other planets more or less follow it.
And with just that line of those planets, God teaches us different things.
Now, how does he do that?
They're like pointers.
He highlights that one place.
He says, oh, here's where the sun is, look here.
What does that look like?
And then he tells a story about that.
He said, well, a lot of times you have to turn yourself upside down.
Well, that kind of looks like you can see a cat.
Here's the head looking that way, lying down.
Here's the tail, all right?
And then he tells a story.
Well, it's a lion, and maybe he talks about Jesus.
There's coming the lion, and it will come from my people.
He tells a whole story, depending on the time.
Right now it's August, and the sun is in the lion.
So, sorry, it's September.
But the sun is still in the lion, all right?
So, at any time of year, you have different stories.
Your children, a lot of times, want to hear the same stories over and over again.
You repeat them, right?
So, every year, God has his storybook turning around the world.
And every night, you can look out and talk about the different stars.
He would talk about the different stars.
He points out the different pictures.
And there's a Bible verse that is very interesting.
It comes from Psalm 147 and verse 4.
It's talking about God.
It says, he telleth the number of the stars.
He knows how many stars there are.
But more than that, it says, he calleth them all by their names.
So, that means the stars have names.
Who gave the stars names?
Now, again, imagine God with his creation.
He's telling the stories.
And then he says, see that star, that means this.
And he gives a name for it.
And that way, you can become familiar.
His children would become familiar with the story.
Now, over many, many years and millennia, a lot of those names have been lost.
But there are still a number, quite a number of names of stars that we know from ancient times.
And ultimately, it says in the Bible that they have names.
So, God gave names to the stars.
And the more ancient the name is, the more likely that it comes from what God actually was teaching by naming those stars.
Of course, we can't be completely sure when we have the name of a star, whether it was God that gave that name.
Maybe just somebody later gave it a name.
But when we see how they all tell a story, it becomes clear, all right?
So, that's kind of how God tells the stories through the stars.
But he also uses the planets.
Because the planets are basically, especially in ancient time, they look just the same.
The only difference between the planet and the stars, when you look out at night, is that the planets are often brighter.
Some of them, like Venus, for example, is very bright, but they move.
Now, you don't see them in the night moving.
But night after night, when you look at the same place, you say, hey, that one's a little bit moved over.
The next night, it's a little further over, and further and further.
And as we look from night to night, you start to see how the heavens, the whole heavens move.
They turn.
And then, as you're looking every night, it looks a little different.
Sometimes they get brighter.
Sometimes they're dimmer.
Sometimes they go away, out of view.
There's the sun coming out in the daytime.
This program is very nice, because it shows us all these things whenever we want, and however we want.
So, let's just look at the stars now.
And if we look at the planets, we want to know what kind of meaning God is putting in these things.
Because these are all symbols, and he wants to show us and teach us things from that.
And the planets are all a little bit different.
And even in ancient times, they knew some things about the different planets.
For example, one of the planets, when you look at it in the night, it's red.
You know what planet?
Which is the red planet?
Mars, exactly.
And so, red is often associated with certain things in our world.
Like what?
What are common things that are red?
Blood, exactly.
You cut yourself, you see red.
And so, Mars is associated with blood or war, because in war there's a lot of blood.
Things like that.
And in that way, God can give a certain character to his story.
Depending on where that red planet is, he tells a different part of the story.
So, for example, here are the different planets.
Jupiter is the biggest planet, and we'll look at that again a little bit later.
But it has these bands on it, stripes on the planet.
And if you have a nice enough telescope, you can actually see those.
And there's Mars, the red planet.
So, every planet has its different character that it brings to the story that
God is teaching.
But have you ever seen anything other than the stars and planets in the sky?
Sometimes there are other things.
Maybe there's a shooting star, okay?
And sometimes, more rarely, there are what we call comets.
Now, a comet is something that comes from very far away.
Here is a picture of a big comet.
This one actually showed up a long, long time ago.
And it has this big, wispy tail.
And so, again, God uses it.
It can represent his finger.
He's pointing out there.
He wants to show something.
This particular comet that came in 1843.
This is a picture that an artist painted of this comet in 1843.
It was a big comet.
Everybody was talking about it.
And if you look carefully, you can even see He drew in the stars of Orion.
There's three belt stars.
There's four stars around it.
And then the little ones in the middle.
But that just shows that this comet was connected with Orion.
But that's not my point right now.
But God uses other objects.
And they're all like pointers that point to different places in the night sky.
Now, these comets don't have to follow the line of the sun.
Remember, we had that line that I put in there?
The sun goes along this line, and all the planets follow it.
But the comets don't have to.
They can come in from many different places.
And so, God can use comets as a way to point somewhere else besides just those constellations where the sun travels.
Now, if you look at this picture, it shows the whole solar system.
Here's the sun in the middle.
And then all the planets are going around in that area.
But the comets, come from this big cloud far, far away from the sun.
And this is like the path of one coming way, far, far, far away.
And then it comes close to the sun, whips around, and goes back way far away again.
And it takes thousands, sometimes tens of thousands or millions of years that it would take for that comet to come.
So they only come once often.
There are some comets that come closer more often.
You've heard of Halley's Comet, probably.
At least in the north, we have Halley's Comet.
And it comes every so many years.
Those are closer comets.
But there are the comets that come once, and that's it.
They come from this cloud that's far, far away.
It's the furthest thing away from the solar system that can still be called part of our solar system.
And they call this a cloud.
And the reason for that comes from what a comet actually is.
Do you know what a comet is made of?
A comet is actually water.
Most of it is just water.
But it's very far away.
And so the sun isn't there to give it any warmth.
So, it's really ice.
They're just ice stones that come.
And as they come closer to the sun, the sun warms them up.
And some of that ice comes off.
And that's why they make that cloud.
And they look beautiful.
It's because of all the water that's coming off of that ice core.
And a cloud, of course, in the sky is also water.
It's made from water drops.
And even our clouds are often cold enough.
If you actually were to go there, it's cold.
And they are often ice crystals in the clouds.
So when we talk about comets, they're represented by clouds.
And we even call it a cloud.
And those comets come from the big cloud, which is called the Oort cloud.
It is named after an astronomer who had the idea.
So I want to talk about a special comet that we've learned a lot from.
Now, I have a video that I want to play.
Largest Known.
First Activity.
1000 times more massive.
Astronomers thrilled.
Discovered on the birthday of Jesus Christ in 2014.
Perihelion exactly 2000 years after His ascension.
Every aspect signifies His return.
It comes from a cloud, the Oort cloud.
It is the sign of the Son of man Coming in a cloud.
First seen in the clock Horologium constellation.
Watch therefore.
Comet Origin Andromeda.
It comes with a chain.
And I saw an angel come down from heaven having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand.
And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent which is the devil and Satan and bound him 1000 years.
Times have changed.
Visit White Cloud Farm.
Because He comes in the clouds.
So there you saw an example of a comet.
Just like this one, that came from the Oort cloud and is now in our solar system.
So we can see it.
It's been observed.
And for those of you who were able to see what was written in the video, it has many very interesting characteristics.
For example, it was discovered on a special day.
Who caught it from the video?
It was discovered on Jesus's birthday.
Now, not Christmas.
Because in the Bible, they had a different calendar.
And when you study that, and you study out when Jesus was actually born, it points to a different date.
And it's easy to remember because we want Jesus how much of the time?
We want him 24-7, right?
And Jesus's birthday is the 24th day of the seventh Hebrew month.
So it makes it easy to remember.
It's on the Hebrew calendar, not on our calendar.
It comes around October.
It's different every year.
And when this comet was discovered, it was exactly on that day in 2014, on Jesus's birthday,
that they found this comet in the pictures of their telescope.
So that's interesting.
How often does that happen?
Well, not very often.
And that's just one point.
Another thing is when it comes closest to the sun, this comet comes from thousands of years.
It's been traveling for thousands and thousands of years, from the Oort cloud, thousands of years.
And then at that very point, when it comes closest to the sun, it's exactly 2 ,000 years after Jesus gave his life on the cross,
after his crucifixion.
Exactly 2,000 years is when that comet comes closest to the sun.
Now, this was a big sensation in the news when it was first discovered that it was actually a comet.
See, they discovered it in 2014 on Jesus's birthday, but they didn't realize that it was a comet at that time.
They thought it was an asteroid or something along those lines.
But then in 2021, they saw a fuzziness when the ice makes the cloud on the comet, and then they saw that fuzziness.
And they observed that for the first time in 2021, that it actually was a comet that came from the Oort cloud.
So that was interesting also.
Many, many different characteristics about this comet point to Jesus.
And therefore, it makes you think, what is God really trying to say by using a pointer in the sky that is very connected with Jesus?
Both his birth and his death are connected to this comet.
And then where did we discover that comet in 2021 when it was first discovered that it was a comet?
We saw it here on the clock constellation.
Now, we put a picture here just to illustrate it a little bit clearer, because a lot of times, you just see these three stars,
but you can imagine it.
You can imagine the picture.
And what time on the clock is it pointing to?
One of the kids could answer that.
What time on the clock is the hand pointing to, the hour hand?
It's pointing to three o'clock, right?
Is that clear?
Okay.
Is there anything interesting about three o'clock with respect to Jesus?
What in Jesus's life happened at that time?
You know, we have this comet that points to his birth and his death, his life, in other words.
And in the Bible, there's something recorded.
There's only one time that mentions a specific time of day in Jesus's life.
And it mentions that very hour.
Now, in Bible times, they measured time a little bit differently than we do.
They didn't have the time measured from midnight until midnight, but they divided the night separately from the daytime.
So when the sun would rise, that was the first hour.
And then at noon, that was the sixth hour.
And then at sunset, that was the twelfth hour.
So that's how they measured their time.
It was about how many hours of the day had passed.
So at three o'clock, what hour of the day would that be?
If sunset and sunrise were around six o 'clock, and you count six hours to noon, and three more hours, that brings you to nine o'clock.
Not nine o'clock, the ninth hour, the ninth hour of the day.
That's how the Bible described it.
Let's look at that in Mark chapter 15 and verse 25.
So it's describing, if we look at verse 24, it's describing the time of his life at his death.
In verse 24, it says, and when they had crucified him, they parted his garments, casting lots upon them, what every man should take.
And then in verse 25, and it was the third hour.
So what is the third hour?
Six o'clock would be sunrise, first hour, second hour.
The third hour would be nine o'clock, as we're used to it.
That was when Jesus was crucified.
He was put on the cross at nine o'clock.
It's interesting, that's where we see the comet.
It's also at nine o'clock.
Okay, but that wasn't the only time.
If we continue on a little bit later in verse 33, it says when the sixth hour was come, so that was noon.
What we would call 12 o'clock.
When the sixth hour was come, suddenly there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour.
So this was a surprise to the people.
It's high noon, the sun is out, but over the cross it became very dark.
There was darkness over the whole land for three hours.
From the sixth hour until the ninth hour.
And at the ninth hour, Jesus cried with a loud voice saying, Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachtani, which is being interpreted, My God, my God,
why hast thou forsaken me?
And some of them that stood by when they heard it said, Behold, he calleth Elias.
They had the same language problems that we do.
They didn't understand what he was actually saying because he wasn't speaking their language and they guessed.
But then in verse 37, Jesus cried out with a loud voice and he gave up the ghost, so he died.
That was at the ninth hour.
So here are the different times we have.
He was put on the cross at the third hour or our nine o'clock.
And then at noon there was darkness all the way until three o'clock.
And what happened at three o'clock?
That was when he died.
Okay, so this clock in heaven, by the way, this is in the southern hemisphere.
So that means that it can be seen in our sky at night, the stars are faint.
So if there's too much light, you can't see it very well.
But it can be seen in our night sky.
But this clock is pointing to the hour that Jesus died.
So this adds to the special things that we saw about the comet.
Because not only was this comet discovered on Jesus's birthday, it comes closest to the sun 2,000 years after his death.
But also it's in the clock that points exactly to the hour of his crucifixion.
And if we look at the path of the comet, this shows where the comet has been and then where it's going.
As of 2021, this is when it was first discovered to be a comet.
Now it's already out here somewhere.
It's already coming out of the clock.
And these three loops took place as the comet moved across that loop over the course of an entire year.
The comet is actually just moving straight, but because the earth moves around the sun, we see the comet in a different way.
And so it looks like it's in a different place.
That's why it does that.
But the interesting thing is what this is showing.
For example, in the middle, it circles 12 o'clock, exactly that hour.
I mean, this could be anywhere.
It's really interesting that it circles exactly that hour, also one of the hours of when the sun became dark over Jesus's crucifixion.
Now that's interesting, but as we were studying this, something happened in the world that made it even more interesting.
Maybe you even remember it.
This is a picture over the Pacific Ocean.
There's a tiny island there called Hunga Tonga.
You can't even see it in this picture.
And that island, it's from a volcano.
And on January 15th, 2022, it erupted.
Now for most people, okay, volcanoes erupt all over the world.
You hear about it for a week and it goes away.
This volcano really had so many different characteristics about it that the scientists have been studying it ever since.
There's still articles that are being written and published about this volcano and what happened.
Because it was very unique.
This is the island, what it looked like before the volcano.
On January 6th, 2022, that was its form.
And then on January 15th, but before the eruption happened.
You see, the day before, on January 14th, it erupted, but just a small eruption.
And in that eruption, you can see how it made the island sink.
It formed a little bit more out here.
It changed it a little bit.
And the main part of the volcano, now it was underwater.
So all that water was going inside where the hot magma is of the volcano.
And that made it explode on January 15th, the next day.
And then after that, it almost completely just obliterated the whole island.
It wasn't an inhabited island.
It was very small.
So it spew out a lot of water because it was from under the sea.
Okay, now I want to show you a Bible verse.
And it comes from Revelation.
And we'll see how this connects to it.
All right, Revelation chapter 18 and verse 21.
This chapter in Revelation talks about the fall of Babylon.
Now Babylon was an ancient city.
And they took Israel captive.
So they were like the enemy.
So when Revelation talks about Babylon, it's talking about the enemies of God and of God's people.
And this chapter is talking about how Babylon will fall.
Okay, so the destruction of this city, Babylon, it's talking about the destruction of God's enemies.
And then in verse 21, it talks about a mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone and cast it into the sea.
Now what happens when you cast a big stone into the sea?
Have you ever done that?
A heavy, you throw a heavy stone into the sea.
It goes down usually with a boop.
And then what happens after the stone goes under the water?
What comes up?
A lot of water, right?
That heavy rock, it goes down and then a bunch of water sprays up.
It's kind of like what happened with the volcano.
It's just a relationship.
There are many other reasons why we look at this volcano.
But anyway, thus with violence shall that great city, Babylon, be thrown down.
So God is making a comparison.
A comparison with this illustration of throwing a big stone.
You know, a millstone is what they used to make flour.
You know, in ancient times, they didn't have electric mills.
So they would use a big stone and they would put the wheat in between.
And they would grind the stones together and make flour that way.
And they were very heavy.
So it gave them a good illustration of what it would be like.
And that would be the way Babylon would be destroyed.
It would be like throwing a big heavy stone, a millstone, into the sea.
And then it wouldn't be found anymore at all.
Now these are symbols.
It's just a comparison.
God is comparison.
He even says the angel took up a stone like a great millstone.
So he's using this as an example for how Babylon will fall.
All right, so now let's start to put these pieces together.
The clock, the volcano, and this millstone.
Okay, in this picture, this is looking back at the heavens.
And this is exactly on the volcano.
Okay, we're in the middle of the ocean.
And it's quite distorted because we're looking at the entire sky.
So here's north and there's south.
So from one end of the sky to the other, you have the whole sky around all in this picture.
All right, and directly in the middle, that's what these green lines are for, to show exactly the middle of the sky.
So that would be looking straight up if you were on the tip of the volcano.
And that point magnified here comes right there at the base of this constellation.
It's helpful to have the picture just to kind of visualize it.
But you can see why they visualized it like that, pouring out of water.
And there's a story related to this constellation.
There are many stories.
You know, the heavens are like, I don't know if you have seen they have a lot of times felt boards for children.
Where you have a fuzzy board, and then you have little cutouts of people, different characters.
You put a scene on the board, and then you have the characters, and they all stick to the board.
You know what I'm talking about?
That's kind of how it is with the stars.
They're all different characters that God has on his felt board.
And sometimes you use the same one in different stories to tell a different part of the story.
And so in one example, one story, this constellation, it represents God the Father, giving life-giving water,
the water of life to his people.
He's pouring that out.
So anyway, the story is that he's filling the sea, so to speak.
So all this ocean is at the base of his water pot.
He's pouring it out, and he's filling the sea.
This is, he's called Aquarius, because he's filling the sea.
Now at this very time, when the volcano erupted, there was another comet at the top in the water pot.
And we were following that comet, watching what was happening, because we recognized it as coming into the sea, because of its position.
It had come into Aquarius, and so we were connecting that with this verse, where it says, a mighty angel, a mighty angel, you know,
a person,
a being in heaven is like an angel.
By the way, the word angel in the Bible, it just means a messenger.
So many things can serve as angels.
It doesn't have to be a person, or with wings, or however you imagine an angel.
But it can be, it can take different forms.
It's just giving a message.
A messenger delivers a message, and that's called an angel in the Bible.
But this angel, mighty angel, took up a stone like, so it's not the millstone, but it's like a great millstone.
So, okay, how is this comet like a millstone?
Well, notice Jupiter is also here in Aquarius.
Now, Jupiter is an interesting planet.
Many years ago, they were able to take some footage.
The Voyager went around Jupiter, and this is what it saw.
Now, these are the bands on Jupiter, and you notice they're moving.
Some are coming this way, some going that way.
Every band is going in the opposite direction.
And that's exactly how a millstone works.
You have two stones, two circular stones, and they're going in opposite directions, okay?
Usually, the one is stationary, and you turn the other one, but it's the same effect, but you get the idea.
It's like a millstone, all right?
So, that is what gives this comet the character of a millstone.
It's like, in the same area, a millstone, okay?
So, here we have a symbol that connects to this verse in the Bible.
We have the mighty angel taking up a stone, Aquarius taking up the comet like a great millstone.
Jupiter is the big, it's the biggest planet, the great millstone, and cast it into the sea.
And here's the stone at the water pot being cast into the sea.
And this is at the very moment when a big eruption happens in the sea.
And then it gives the comparison, and this is important.
It says, thus with violence shall that great city Babylon be thrown down, and shall be found no more at all.
So, Babylon, again, represents God's enemies.
And God is using this volcano eruption that happened at this time as an illustration to say, like this, Babylon is going to fall.
So now, let's connect that to the clock.
Okay, so here is our comet, the one we saw the video about, that's connected with the Son of Man.
Now, I've put a cross there because this points to the hours.
We saw how the comet is coming in at the hour when Jesus was put on the cross.
It's circling midnight, I mean, 12 o'clock, when there was darkness over the land.
And it points to 3 o'clock, and there we have a cross.
And of course, he was buried just before evening.
So all those four points are reflected in Jesus's crucifixion.
But here's this comet, and guess where it was at the time that that volcanic eruption happened?
At the very moment when we saw that sign in Aquarius, that comet was right at 12 o'clock.
That is, and it's connected with the fall of Babylon from the Bible verse that we saw.
So this is how God is showing us a time on the clock.
He's saying, right now, boom, when this volcanic eruption happens, it's 12 o'clock.
And remember what happened at the crucifixion?
It became dark.
So this is a symbol for, you could say, the darkness in the world.
It's a dark time, especially for Babylon.
Okay, so what does this mean about how Babylon will actually fall?
This marks the hour on the clock, but there needs to be something else that tells us:
Remember, because it says, like this, Babylon will fall.
So like this, so at 12 o'clock, Babylon will fall.
But we need something else to tell us when that 12 o'clock is going to happen, because that happens every day.
Every day there's a 12 o'clock, and so we need to know, when is this picture going to actually apply?
So guess what?
God sent another comet, and this time this comet came flying through and points exactly to 12 o'clock,
to the very line that we can draw with the other comet.
Okay, and when that comet came through, I didn't mention it.
These two comets, the one we watched the video about.
That's about Jesus, it's the biggest comet that has ever been discovered.
Prior to that comet, this comet was the biggest comet ever to be discovered.
So here we have, in the clock constellation, the two biggest comets that have ever been discovered, until this very day.
Now this constellation is not very big, it's just a little part of the sky, and these comets come from everywhere around the sky.
So it's really quite remarkable that we would have two comets.
Not just two comets, that would be remarkable enough,
but the biggest two comets that have ever been discovered are right there on the clock at the same time.
By the time this comet came in, the first one was a little bit further, but it was still in the clock.
So we still had those two largest comets right there in the clock, and that points to, what did the Bible say?
When that great city Babylon would be thrown down.
Now when you throw down a city, do you do that in one day?
The destruction of a city doesn't normally happen in one day, it's a process.
And so what these comets are pointing to is the beginning of a process.
And that process Jesus described it in Matthew 24 and verse 30.
Then shall appear the sign of the Son of Man in heaven.
So he's talking, Jesus is talking about the sign of the Son of Man.
And then immediately after, he says, then shall the tribes of the earth mourn.
The tribes of the earth mourn because their city Babylon falls, right?
Now if you don't believe me, then let's look back at Revelation 18.
Because in this chapter, if we look earlier, the whole chapter is talking about the fall of Babylon.
And it talks about three different classes of people, starting with verse 9.
And in verse 9 it says, the kings of the earth, who have committed fornication, live deliciously with her.
We don't, I won't talk about that.
They will bewail her, they lament for her.
So they're mourning, that's what Jesus was talking about.
Then you'll see the sign of the Son of Man.
And you will see the tribes of the earth mourning.
All right, they're lamenting for her when they see the smoke of her burning.
Okay, and then it talks more about that.
Then it talks about, in verse 11, the merchants of the earth.
And the merchants of the earth shall weep and mourn over her.
For no man buys her merchandise anymore.
And then we go down further.
Okay, yes, it says, for in one hour, so great riches is come to naught.
And every ship master, there's the third group of people.
And all the company and ships and sailors, and as many as trade by sea, stood afar off.
And what did they do?
They cried when they saw the smoke of her burning.
Saying, what city is like unto this great city?
And it's all talking about Babylon.
So in this chapter, it's describing exactly what Jesus was talking about.
In Matthew 24, when he said, if I can get there, there.
When he said, the tribes, then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn.
That's pointing directly to Revelation 18 with the fall of Babylon.
So that happens as the sign of the Son of Man appears in heaven.
So at this time that we see on the clock, okay?
When this comet came, it was in March of 2023.
And that is exactly when the sign of the Son of Man appeared.
So I'm going to show you the sign of the Son of Man.
Here's our clock.
And this is the comet, the path of that comet that was coming through the clock.
I didn't show the other comet there, but it's there as well.
All right, so this comet comes through.
And over time, over the course of more than a year, it paints that line.
At the same time, from March of 2023, this year, another comet was crossing the river and forming another part of this sign.
We've been talking about this for a few weeks,
and we will continue to do so because there is a lot of information that God is communicating through this sign.
And I'm not going to cover much about that now,
but I just wanted to introduce how we came to the timing of the sign of the Son of Man and how that relates to the fall of Babylon.
Because when Jesus comes, which is after this process takes place.
When Jesus comes, he will, of course, destroy Babylon.
It's a process.
And that process has already begun in different forms.
We see the institutions of the world beginning to crumble and fall.
And we see that with the banks.
And the banks began, the big problems with the banks began exactly in March of this year.
And we see the, you know, the riots in France, especially, and around the world, burning the cities.
There are many other things that relate to the prophecies that point to the fall of Babylon.
It's already in progress.
But we haven't made it all the way through.
There's still several months left until this sign is complete.
So with that, I will stop for now.
And we can talk more about this amazing sign another time.
But this gives us an idea of how God has communicated the timing by putting these things together.
The volcano that marks the time on the clock when we're looking and we see the comets, we understand their meaning.
Like we wrote in the video, the comet, we called it even the sign of the Son of Man, because it was so connected with the Son of Man.
And indeed, it pointed to the full picture of the sign of the Son of Man.
There's so much to say, but we have to stop.
So with that, let's have a word of prayer.
All right.
Dear Father in heaven, you are the Creator who created these amazing things.
You knew the end from the beginning.
And you know where all of the objects are in the heavens.
And when we will observe them, and you know what's happening on the earth at that time.
And you desire us to look in the heavens, to see these things, to understand the time.
Because Jesus said, he was lamenting over Jerusalem, because they didn't know their time.
They didn't know the time of their visitation, when they would be visited by the Lord.
And so we thank you for showing us these things, that we can begin after studying to understand what Jesus was really pointing to.
To understand the time that it refers to.
To understand how your clock works.
And we just praise you for your many works and wonders in the heavens.
And also for what you've done in our lives on the earth.
We thank you for that, for all that you've done.
And you've shown us on the cross in your example.
And we just praise your name.
The name of Jesus, the wounded one.
Amen.
