July 2020 has been an interesting time in the United States and around the world. Untold violence, social unrest, racial division, false media narratives, fear of disease, and draconian state and federal restrictions seemed to have swooped down upon our country overnight.

1 Comment on God’s Celestial Word: The Zodiac in Job 38:31–39:30

We have seen that the Book of Job, the first written revelation, can act as a transition between God’s celestial and written Word. In Job 38:1-30, God lovingly encouraged Job to remain committed and listen to the truth. Then God recounted great truths for Job: His original creation, Lucifer’s rebellion and the destruction it brought, how God restored heaven and earth. We have also seen that God made known to Job His magnificence in the Great Deep, in the Heavens, and in the Great Waters. Now we will see how God explains the great story in the heavens to Job–the story of the coming Messiah.
