64-0719 The Feast of the Trumpets

But every trumpet sounded under the Sixth Seal, under persecution of the Jews. Notice, Revelation now, 8th and begin with the 7th verse. All was the calling out of Isreal, in the spiritual sense. He was making them ready to come to the feast of the Atonement

27

Now if you'll notice when those beings were in heaven. Now, over in Revelation 11, ... the 7th chapter, I believe, or no, it's the 12th chapter. He gives a picture of the woman standing; the moon at her head and the sun ... the sun at her head and the moon under her feet. And the red dragon stood to devour the child as soon as it was born, and he took his tail and pulled a third of the stars of heaven and cast them to the earth. Did you notice that? Now, that doesn't mean that Satan has a long tail that he hooked around people, but “the tale that he told,” and pulled a third part of those stars. Those stars were Abraham's seed.

Abraham said, “Oh....”

God told Abraham, “Look up to the heavens, and number the stars if you can.”

He said, “I can't do it.”

He said, “Neither will you be able to number your seed,” the stars.

28

Who is the bright and Morning Star? Jesus of Nazareth, the brightest that ever lived in human flesh. He is the bright and Morning Star. And He is the Seed of Abraham, coming through Isaac. And we, being dead in Christ, take on Abraham's Seed and are heirs according to the promise.

So the stars of the heaven represented the spirits of men here. And when the red dragon (Rome, under its persecution) hugged in two thirds of the ... or a third of the stars, and cast them down, that was at the crucifixion of our Lord Jesus when they rejected Him and cast Him out and had nothing to do with Him; there was that third part of the angelic stars, the angelic beings.

25

Now, the woman is the church, and the church was.... The moon was under her feet. In other words, it was still shining. But she was above it, because she had already become in a condition that she was bearing a child. She was travailing in birth. And the moon was passing away, and the sun was shining.

Now the moon is.... What makes the moon light, is the sun shining on it. It's just a shadow of the sun. And therefore, the moon had lived its day out, and the sun was rising. The woman wasn't clothed with the moon; she was clothed with the sun. It was a gospel church coming into existence. The old orthodox church....

26

Now, you say, “Well, was that the orthodox?” Yes. Jesus first came to the Jew, and not the Gentile, see. He commissioned His disciples not to go to any Gentile. He said He came to His own, and His own received Him not. Watch. He said as He commissioned them (in the 10th chapter of Saint Matthew), He said, “Go not in the way of the Gentiles, but go rather to the lost sheep of Israel. And as you go, preach, saying, 'The kingdom of heaven is at hand.'” See? “Don't go in the ways of the city of Samaria, or any of the rest of the way, but go first to the lost sheep of Israel.”

That's the reason the glorious sunlight was shining around the woman, and she, being in pain, travailing to give birth to this child.

And she brought forth a man child who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron....

And the dragon stood by the woman—which was Rome—to devour the child as soon as it was born. And Rome did persecute the child. They sent forth and killed all the children from two years old, up ... or, two year old, down, rather, that they might kill Christ, and catch Him. And there Herod made this issue. But the woman's child was caught up to God, from the resurrection, was caught up to God, and sits on the right hand of God.
