Inhaltsangabe

For thousands of years humans looked to the stars for navigation, deities, personality insights, predictions and omens about the future. What can we learn from these heavenly bodies? The Bible says that the Lord placed them there as faithful witnesses to mark the seasons, the days, and the times. The Bible also tells of Wise Men from the east that followed a star to Bethlehem to find a king. What other events might be revealed by the movement of the stars and planets? Is there more hidden in the stars? Is there a Star Code?

Chapter One

How Can We Know the Exact Birth Date of Christ?

How can we know what day Jesus was actually born based on historical evidence and scientific investigation? Jesus warned us, that no one would know the time of His Second Coming, "But of that day and hour knows no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only." (Matthew 24:36) Scripture indicates that the Magi and the Hebrew scholars knew the day and hour of His first coming. Even Herod knew the hour as reported by the Magi, "Then Herod, when he had privately called the three Wiseman, enquired of them diligently, what time the star appeared." (Matthew 2:7) We can expect, that the Magi told Herod the exact day and hour that the star appeared which predicted the birth of a king. So, if people of the time period figured it out, then it is possible for us to calculate, and to know the exact day, and hour of the birth of Christ.

If you have been interested in this subject, you already know that historians have speculated, that Jesus was born anywhere from 8 B.C.E to 8 C.E. In other words, these experts, all claiming to know exactly the date of Jesus' birth, predicted that Jesus was born "exactly" on a certain date, somewhere within a sixteen year period. Some have used Biblical literature, and some have used astronomy, or both, to support their speculations. Up to this point, Jesus' birth date has been calculated based on anecdotal information, religious fiat, historical speculation, or astronomy. So where is the concrete scientific evidence to back up their claims?

Today, prognosticators have the use of cutting edge technology, and a sizeable data bank of expert historical and religious opinion. The Bible mentions a sign, signs, and signs and wonders. For example, God presses Ahaz to ask for Him a, 'sign' in the Book of Isaiah.

"Moreover, the LORD spoke again unto Ahaz, saying, 'Ask thee a sign of the LORD thy God; ask it either in the depth, or in the height above.' But Ahaz said,' I will not ask, neither will I tempt the LORD. And he said, 'Hear you now, O house of David; Is it a small thing for you to weary men, but will you weary my God also?' Therefore, the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.'" (Isaiah, 7:10-14)

The prediction, and 'sign,' regarding the birth of Jesus, was right to the point, in that it identified the 'sign' as being both physical, "either in the depth," and spiritual, "or in the height above." Therefore, it is conceivable that the evidence for Jesus' birth should be physical and spiritual. This is why I began to look for a star code, a code that is Biblical and astronomical; a sign in the heavens, which will reflect, and validate the words in the Bible and confirm Jewish tradition.

This study will identify Jesus' birth, both in the depth, and height, as it relates to Biblical, historical, and scientific-astronomical evidence. Up until this book, no one has attempted to discover a star code using the 'keys,' presented in the Scriptures. Imagine, being able to report the date of Jesus' birth, that is both Biblical, and scientific, with absolute accuracy.

Once the 'sign' and the 'keys' are established, other more remarkable prophecies, in the Bible are predictable. This study will establish that the 'key,' to comprehending the 'sign,' is found in the Gospels, as it relates to the point of origin, of the Magi, in relationship to Babylon, Bethlehem, and Jerusalem. Understand that the 'sign,' is the manifestation and the point of reference is the 'key' to the unveiling of the prophecy. Once the point of origin and the 'key' is confirmed, then it is possible to hypothesize the rise of the Antichrist.

Chapter Two

Old Testament Clues

There are miraculous clues throughout the Old Testament, which pinpoint the birth of Jesus of Nazareth. This is truly amazing when you consider that all of our points of reference have been polluted: The Hebrew calendar, the Julian calendar, and the Gregorian calendar have all been altered or modified by mandated adjustments by well intentioned men. It is only a miracle, that astronomy has not been so infected with politically correct attempts to adjust man-made calendars and that we have an accurate clock in the heavens. Thanks to Keplar (1615) we have the three laws of planetary motion that are still used by planetarium software today.

The first star code that is absolutely miraculous is found hidden in Scripture in the Old Testament. Let's take a look at the Old Testament's proclamations, that admonish Jews in exile (Babylon), to pray towards the Temple in Jerusalem, that are documented in the Bible.

"And hearken thou to the supplication of thy servant, and of thy people Israel, when they shall pray toward this place: and hear thou in heaven thy dwelling place: and when thou hear, forgive {toward this place: or, in this place}." (1Kings 8:30)

"When heaven is shut up, and there is no rain, because they have sinned against thee; if they pray toward this place...
