Battle above the Clouds -
Part 3
January 21, 2013 - [o1.21.2013]
Before you proceed in
reading this next chapter, I would urge you to read two previous articles, as
it all fits together. First, We Overcome and then go on to
This next part will make
the word that the Lord gave me fall into place, as well as what I saw in the
sky. It goes together like hand in glove.
Ancient Paths
Satan aka Lucifer, never
quit defying the Creator, not since the rebellion in heaven. Neither did
he quit his assault against mankind in the Garden of Eden, when he seduced Eve,
tempting her to disobey the commandment of God.
When I had a vision that
carried on over the course of a couple of days during a fast, back in the first
week of April, 2010, I did not understand all that I was seeing. (It is
in the archives under 'What I Beheld', under week of April 4, 2011.) Now, more
and more is being understood.
One thing I was keenly
aware of was the demons, strong principalities (princes), right down to the
lower ranking demons, as well as the harlot that were extremely active all over
the map of the Western Hemisphere.
When I was in prayer this
morning, I paused for a moment to look out the window, and there were two
triangles, made from chemtrails. One triangle was inside of another
triangle, perfectly fit. However, the triangles were on their sides
(horizontal), which perplexed me.
The Lord led me to a site
that explained much. Everything came together once the Lord led me to the
resource He led me to. The word He gave me, the scriptures He gave me, as
well as the two triangles that I saw lying sideways in the sky (one inside of
the other), made by chemtrails, all came together.
The pattern I saw
today were patterns that I had never seen in the trails before in the chemtrail
patterns; not since I first noticed chemtrails in 1998. Our Lord's ways
truly are far higher than our ways, and His thoughts from our thoughts.
I will be
presenting the information that the Lord led me to share here, as it goes hand in glove with what the Lord gave me at the break of
'dawn' (interesting phrase that, remember it).
Searching about triangles
and their meanings (outside of the mathematical triangles, which are standard),
I came across the following information.
Summoning the Powerful
Strongmen
One study I read states
that occultists use the triangle as a symbol for summoning. I found that
most interesting, given the seven steps (the seven dates), the Lord had
given me (in Part 4).
A ritual is performed,
and when it has culminated, the evil entity of choice is to appear, having been
summoned. The one who does the summoning remains inside a circle for
protection.
Whether a triangle is
upright or inverted has significant meaning also. Upright always
indicates a strong foundation, as well as stability. Upright triangles
(depending on purpose/use of triangle) is representative of male energy (fire
and air elements).
Remember, I am speaking
of occult purposes (which believers must have no part of), but also I speak of
the triangle and not the pyramid. The inverted triangle is representative
of female energy (earth and water). Undoubtedly, this is where the term
'mother earth' comes from.
Another interesting thing I read was the occult perspective of the positions of the triangles (what occultists believe) is that the upright triangles represent ascension into the spirit realm,
whereas the inverted represent descent 'from' the spiritual realm. The
union of both triangles is represented in a hexagram.
The Lucis Trust, which
was renamed from Lucifer Publishing, was founded by Alice Bailey (occult
writer) and is a branch off from Helena Blavatsky’s cult of Theosophy.
In 1937, Bailey and
Blavatsky formed a subsidiary group called Triangles. For the purposes of
meditation, they taught 'students' to form a three person triangle group.
The purpose of these
triangular, three person groups, according to Lucis Trust was to: “help to
illuminate world thought, through which the new incoming Aquarian energies can
function, the new ideas spread, and the New World Order emerge."
That was an interesting
bit of trivia, but what the Lord led me to next absolutely made me stand up and
take notice, given the word He had given me this morning.
What you are about to
read comes from the hard work of another. At the end, I will provide the link to the site, as it is quite an
intriguing read.
The author of the work,
Gwen Thomas, originally posted the article in 2007, updating her work again in
2008 and 2009 respectively. There are times that I will underline or
embolden words to highlight. Other times, the emboldening is hers.
------- Her writing begins:
To the occult, triangles
represent a merging of the spiritual and earthly realms and are considered
symbolic or “spiritual triangles”.
More specifically,
spiritual triangles represent triune gods (or god of three) as well as identify
geographical spiritual gateways (geographic areas of demonic activity and
influence on earth) found on such things as maps or plats. Even truncated
triangles and truncated triangular shapes, such as a pyramid, have spiritual meaning
to the occult.
In a
similar way, the symbol of a triangle (∆) was believed to embody and/or
represent a composite of three separate gods and/or goddesses being brought
down into the geographical realm. However, the triangle (and the symbol
of a fish as discussed below) also represented spiritual doorways or
gateways.
(she continues)...
An
example of a spiritual gateway is found in Genesis 28:10-17 and is often
referred to as “Jacob’s ladder”. As Jacob travelled from Beer-sheba to
Haran, he laid down to sleep one night and saw a spiritual ladder in a dream
with angels of God ascending and descending to and from heaven and earth.
After
awakening, Jacob exclaimed that it was a gate of heaven (Gen
28:17). Satan, as we know, imitates and perverts things of God and thus
has his own (demonic) gateways. These gateways, known as “high places” or
places of idol worship in the Old Testament, are gateways of the demonic and
places of both demonic activity and demonic influence.
The
etymology of the Egyptian hieroglyphic of a fish, the Phoenician daleth,
the Hebrew daleth and the Greek delta are keys to understanding
why the occult and Freemasons use triangle and fish symbols to identify
spiritual gateways.
Even
though Egyptian hieroglyphics were never an alphabet in the true sense,
nonetheless, the Semitic people of Phoenicia, who created the first known true
alphabet, were influenced by Egypt’s use of pictures to communicate.
Over
time, the use of pictures evolved into the letters of the alphabet. Those
who understand the significance of the etymology of words and images realize
that the root meaning is still relevant – especially for those operating in secrecy. It is in that sense
that the root meanings are relevant for those of us who expose what the unrighteous do in secret.
(Note* - You
will notice that what is done in secret will be exposed by God. It is the time
of revealing. Glory to God. - BP)
It is
well known that organizations who operate in secrecy, like the occult and
Freemasons, are heavily influenced by all aspects of ancient civilizations,
especially their beliefs about their relationship to the spiritual
realm.
For that
reason, they are known to use symbols and letters to convey one message to
those who are like-minded and who, like themselves, understand the etymology of
words or images, while hiding the true meaning from the general public.
As a result, they are able to continue to operate in secrecy.
Spiritual Triangles
To most
people, triangles are simply three-sided symbols or objects that are found in a
variety of every day applications, such as mathematics, engineering or
surveying.
However,
to occultists and others familiar with the occult arts, triangles have a
deeper, spiritual meaning. To the occult, triangles represent a merging
of the spiritual and earthly realms and are considered symbolic or “spiritual
triangles”.
More
specifically, spiritual triangles represent triune gods (or god of three), as
well as identify geographical spiritual gateways (geographic areas of demonic activity and influence on earth)
found on such things as maps or plats. Even truncated triangles and
truncated triangular shapes, such as a pyramid, have spiritual meaning to the
occult.
Ancient
Symbolism of Triangle
In
antiquity, "… triangles were conceived by the ancients to explain the secret
order of the cosmos”. Pagans believed that triangles symbolically
revealed that three spirits were brought down into the geographical or the
worldly realm.
For
example, Baal-Shalisha, a pagan god of three, is mentioned in the Bible in 2 Kings 4:42. In other words,
“a god of three” or triune god would be a composite of three different
deities. The worship of triune gods was prevalent throughout ancient
civilizations with the names of the triune varying from region to region.
While
pagan gods were often portrayed in the image of a deified man or woman, pagans
would also use symbols for the same purpose. For example, several statues
of antiquity have been found that are supposedly in the image of the goddess
Nike – yet we also know that pagans believed that the symbol of a “swoosh” (ΓΌ)
itself embodied the goddess Nike as well.
Just as
the ΓΌ identified Nike in ancient times, the products manufactured by the
modern-day sports company, Nike, are also readily recognized worldwide simply
by this same symbol.
In a similar way, the
symbol of a triangle (∆) was believed to embody and/or represent a composite of
three separate gods and/or goddesses being brought down into the geographical
realm. However, the triangle (and the symbol of a fish as discussed
below) also represented spiritual doorways or gateways.
An
example of a spiritual gateway is found in Genesis 28:10-17 and is often
referred to as “Jacob’s ladder”. As Jacob traveled from Beer-sheba to
Haran, he laid down to sleep one night and saw a spiritual ladder in a dream
with angels of God ascending and descending to and from heaven and earth.
After
awakening, Jacob exclaimed that it was a gate of heaven (Gen
28:17). Satan, as we know, imitates and perverts things of God and thus
has his own
(demonic) gateways. These gateways, known as “high places” or places of
idol worship in the Old Testament, are gateways of the demonic
and places of both demonic activity and demonic influence.
Ancient
Languages and Spiritual Gateways - Daleth
The etymology of the
Egyptian hieroglyphic of a fish, the Phoenician daleth, the Hebrew daleth
and the Greek delta are keys to understanding why the occult
and Freemasons use triangle and fish symbols to identify spiritual
gateways.
Even
though Egyptian hieroglyphics were never an alphabet in the true sense,
nonetheless, the Semitic people of Phoenicia, who created the first known true
alphabet, were influenced by Egypt’s use of pictures to communicate.
Therefore,
let’s look at the etymology of the fish and triangle, two symbols whose root
meanings are vital to the Freemasons and the occult who both believe that the
triangle is symbolic of the spiritual. The chart below shows the
etymology of the letter/symbol, “daleth”, from its earliest usage.
The Semitic alphabet used pictures to
convey ideas. For example, the earliest known Semitic symbol of a fish
literally meant “door” or more specifically a “tent door”. Interestingly,
the Semitic people of Phoenicia incorporated a triangle into their symbol of a
fish; it was the tent shape of the triangle that was meant to be symbolic of a door or gateway. This particular
shape became known as daleth.
Over time, the diamond shape of the
fish was eliminated and only the triangular shaped tail remained – pointing in
the opposite direction. This particular shape was the fourth letter of
the Phoenician alphabet and was also known as daleth. Even though
the shape evolved, the idea behind the letter daleth remained and daleth
continued to be equivalent to a door.
Interestingly, daleth was
adopted by the Hebrews for the fourth letter of their alphabet and like the
Phoenician daleth, the Hebrew daleth also meant door. To
the Greeks, who adopted daleth as the fourth letter of their alphabet, daleth
was written in the form of a triangle and was renamed “delta”.
Like the Phoenician and Hebrew daleth, the Greek delta means
door.
Obviously, not everyone used daleth
in the same way that the pagans did as not everyone bowed down to pagan
deities. Many used daleth or delta for secular purposes.
However, it is the meaning of daleth that the pagans corrupted for their
purposes to identify their spiritual gateways
that I want to address.
According
to The Interpreter’s Dictionary of the Bible, as well as other sources,
the original meaning of daleth was probably dag – the Hebrew word
for fish. In other words, because daleth was originally based on the
pictogram of a fish, the representation of both the triangle and a fish can be
used interchangeably to convey the idea of a door. This same concept
was embraced by America’s Founding Fathers when laying the foundations of our
Nation’s Capitol.
The Egyptians believed in orientating
their temples to the stars; likewise, those who were responsible for designing
the layout of our nation’s Capital ensured that Washington, D.C. was laid out
in accordance with those same pagan beliefs.
The particular star in relationship to
the layout of Washington, D.C. is “Sirius” – and interestingly,
but not surprisingly, the Egyptian hieroglyphic for Sirius includes the triangular
obelisk.
The other two hieroglyphics alongside
the obelisk are a dome and a five-pointed star, both of which are incorporated
into the structure and artwork of our Nation’s Capitol building. Once
again, the ideology and symbolism were to show the relationship between the
spiritual and the natural.
Spiritual Gateways in Washington, DC
It is well known that America’s
Founding Fathers, as well as those who later implemented their plans and
beliefs, used artwork and architectural symbolism to spiritually link our
nation’s capital to civilizations of antiquity. Therefore, it is not
surprising to find numerous triangles
located throughout the city of Washington, DC.
An example of this is the Federal Triangle, which is located between the
White House and the Capitol and includes approximately 70
acres. These triangles identify the numerous spiritual
doors or gateways
throughout our Nation’s Capital through which the demonic and principalities
operate.
Earlier maps of D.C. also clearly
portray the Capitol, White House, Lincoln and Jefferson Memorials as well as
the Washington Mall all strategically enclosed within the outline of a huge
fish, as shown in the annotated aerial photographs below
of Washington, D.C.
America’s Foremost Political “Demonic
Spiritual Gateway”
The above fish identifies the foremost
political “demonic spiritual gateway”
in America. This and other symbolism located throughout Washington, DC
spiritually connects our nation’s Capital to various ancient
civilizations and their demonic gateways,
for example, ancient Nineveh
(see the article entitled: The Symbolism of Washington, DC (the Anatomy of a
Fish excerpt)).
Just as our nation’s capital is
represented by the image of a fish inside the enclosure of a city, biblical
Nineveh was also represented by the picture of a fish inside the enclosure of a
city.
According to The Popular
and Critical Bible Encyclopedia, “The name of Nineveh is written Ninua
and Nina in the cuneiform inscriptions. A popular etymology
connected it with the Assyrian nunu, ‘fish,’ at a very early date, since
the name is ideographically represented by the picture of a fish inside the
enclosure of a city.”
The World’s Foremost “Demonic Spiritual
Gateway”: The Gates of Hell
America’s foremost political demonic
spiritual gateway is also spiritually connected to the world’s foremost demonic
spiritual gateway located in Israel at ancient Caesarea Philippi: The
Gates of Hell.
Caesarea Philippi was originally called
Paneas in honor of the Greek god Pan who was a goat deity. As shown in
the above map, the Capitol of the United States is positioned inside the
topography of a goat’s head (see enlarged image below) that sits atop a
geographical triangle that is truncated (blue outline surrounding the Federal Triangle in red).
This particular triangle is one of
several triangles incorporated within the layout of the fish. Again, both
the triangle and fish are symbolic of spiritual gateways and the triangles
within the fish are symbolic of gateways within the gateway.
Gateway of Hell
“When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea
Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of
man am? And they said, Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some,
Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets. He saith unto them,
But whom say ye that I am?
And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou
art the Christ, the Son of the living God. And Jesus answered and said
unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not
revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven.
And I say also unto thee, That thou art
Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell
shall not prevail against it. And I will give unto thee the keys of the
kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in
heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.”
(Matt 16:13-19, KJV, emphasis added)
“And the Gates of Hell shall not
Prevail”
Caesarea Philippi was an area that
Christ had not been to before and His journey to Caesarea Philippi, a prominent
pagan high place, marked the northern limit of Jesus’ travels outside
Jerusalem.
Given that travel would not have been
easy due to the topography of the land, why would Jesus journey to this
particular pagan high place to make such a profound statement as recorded in
Matthew 16:13-19 rather than the Temple?
To begin with, the name Caesarea
Philippi was synonymous with the gates of hell. According to ancient
history, the pagans of antiquity believed the gates of hell were literally
located at Caesarea Philippi.
It was here that Jesus fearlessly stood
at the gateway of hell and spoke a creative word into the spiritual realm
(Ephesians 3:10). He declared to Satan, the father of lies, and to the
kingdom of darkness that like Peter, all of God’s children, not just the prophets,
would have the ability to hear from God the Father. It was upon our
ability to hear that He would build His church – and that the gates of hell would not prevail against
it.
The Gates of Hell were Located within a
Geographical Triangle
Given that spiritual gateways
are identified by spiritual triangles,
we should not be surprised that the gates of hell were located in a city
“nestling amid three valleys on a terrace in the angle of Hermon”.
Nor should we be surprised that Mount
Hermon itself was a mountain range with three summits situated like the angles
of a triangle. Given the spiritual symbolism of truncated triangles,
which is described later in this paper, it is also significant that one of the
three summits is described as truncated.
Nor should we be surprised that it was
here that Jesus asked His disciples who they thought He was and after Peter
responded that He was the Son of God that Jesus said unto Peter: “That
thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of
hell shall not prevail against it.”
The Gates of Hell and the U.S. Capitol
There is an interesting spiritual
connection between the Gates of Hell in Caesarea Philippi and the U.S.
Capitol. It is common knowledge, especially among occultists,
that the landscape design and layout of the U.S. Capitol grounds appears as the
outline of a goat’s head when viewed from a vertical or aerial perspective
(below is a copy of the original 1874 drawing for Capitol landscape
improvements showing the goat’s head).
As noted above, Caesarea
Philippi was originally named Paneas in honor of the goat deity, Pan.
Thus, both Caesarea Philippi and the U.S. Capitol have a “goat theme” in
common.
While this goat connection
might be dismissed in of itself, the Summer House cannot be. Located on the grounds on the west side of the
Capitol is a small brick structure called the Summer House. In addition
to the goat’s head, the Summer House was part of the Capitol’s landscape design
of Frederick L. Olmstead, the Capitol’s original landscape architect, in
1874.
It is an open-air
hexagon-shaped (geometrically composed of six equilateral triangles) structure
designed as a grotto with iron gates at the entrance.
Of particular interest is a
fountain inside the structure that was originally designed to incorporate a
device with a set of chimes, sometimes referred to as a carillon, to produce a
“melody” (not a song) from the falling waters.
In a straight line behind
the gates and fountain and viewable through an oval opening or window in the
far wall is a grotto with a stream of water coming from this small cave (see
picture below).
Comparing the Summer House
on the Capitol grounds to Caesarea Philippi, we find that Caesarea Philippi was
located in one of the angles of triangular-shaped Mount Hermon. Caesarea
Philippi and Mount Hermon were where the goat-deity, Pan, had a grotto or cave
with a stream flowing from it, just as found in the Summer House.
Pan is often depicted as
playing a set of pipes. According to mythology, Pan invented a musical
instrument composed of unequal reeds plucked from a stream that produced a
“plaintive melody” to woo the nymph, Syrinx and named the instrument after her.
This is analogous to the
original intent of the carillon of the Summer House. The spiritual gates (Gates of Hell) of Caesarea Philippi, of
course, correspond to the physical iron gates of the Summer House (see the
below picture of the Summer House gates).
According to Bulfinch’s
Mythology, “Pan, the god of woods and fields, of flocks and shepherds, dwelt in
grottos, wandered on the mountains and in valleys, and … came to be considered
a symbol of the universe and personification of Nature.”
Pan’s woodland character and personification of
nature fit nicely with Olmstead’s landscaping plans for surrounding the Summer
House with many different types of plants, especially ivy, which he planted
around the Summer House to “merge it with its surroundings”, thus making
it part of nature. The ivy is also symbolic of a spiritual cord as alluded to by Jeremiah:
“O vine of Sibmah, I
will weep for thee with the weeping of Jazer: thy plants are gone over the
sea, they reach even to the sea of Jazer: the spoiler is fallen upon
thy summer fruits and upon thy vintage.” (Jer 48:32, KJV, emphasis added)
Jeremiah was describing the physical
spread of vines, but this is also symbolic of the spiritual spread of vines, in
this case, across the sea to the ivy vines surrounding the Summer House,
connecting the Summer House with Caesarea Philippi. When taken as a
whole, the connections between the Gates of Hell at Caesarea Philippi and the
U.S. Capitol and its Summer House are unmistakable.
