not heard of this until today. came across it quite by chance

 

DO NOT BE LED ASTRAY BY THOSE WHO DISTORT SCRIPTURE. if the historical Jesus is ignored then it is deceiving.

 

https://www.gotquestions.org/astrotheology.html

Astrolatry and star-worship was very common in Old Testament times, and it was forbidden in the Mosaic Law. The first and second of the Ten Commandments address idolatry in general, including the worship of images of celestial bodies: “You shall have no other gods before me. You shall not make for yourself an image in the form of anything in heaven above” (Exodus 20:3–4; cf. Deuteronomy 4:19; 17:3).

Astrotheology teaches that Bible verses that say Jesus is the light of the world (e.g., John 8:12) are really referring to the physical sun. The twelve months of the year are represented by Christ’s twelve apostles, and the four Gospels represent the four seasons. Astrotheology attempts to show that the mythologies of ancient gods such as Osiris, Horus, Adonis, and Mithras were based on seasonal cycles, and that the story of Jesus Christ is just a retelling of those ancient tales.

Several books and two recent films, The God Who Wasn’t There and Zeitgeist, are making these claims popular. The problem with such claims is twofold:

1) astrotheology and similar beliefs dismiss the evidence for the historical Jesus Christ, and

2) the so-called parallels between the Gospels and the mythical religions are invalid, as honest research will show.

The claims made by the historical Jesus are unique and do not match the stories of the pagan gods.

Mary Worship
There is not one line or one letter in all the Bible to countenance the idea that Mary should be worshiped, that she is the "refuge of sinners," that she was "immaculate,"

Eve
One of the names of Eve, as the primeval goddess, worshiped in ancient Babylon,

The Eye
…one of her distinguishing titles was Ophthalmitis, thereby pointing her out as the goddess of "the eye."

Pope Leo XII
In 1825, on occasion of the jubilee, Pope Leo XII struck a medal, bearing on the one side his own image, and on the other, that of the Church of Rome symbolized as a "Woman," holding in her left hand a cross, and in her right a CUP, with the legend around her, "Sedet super universum," "The whole world is her seat."
 
Lady of the Cup
In Pausanias we find an account of a goddess represented in the very attitude of the Apocalyptic "Woman."

I truly know that many do not understand that From even its birth under Constantine.  that church was loaded with pagan things taken from pagan worships.

Most do not know that.    Did you know that even under Constantine his time, and the church

that the true christains who would not conform to its new pratices and ideals from pagan worship,  some of them were killed and fled to the wilderness

EVEN a remant back then KNEW that from her birth Romes church was Corrupt.

And  Look at her NOW...............she hungers for it all now.   not only is she calling the other denominations back to her

SHE calls ALL RELIGOINS under interfaith to her too.   THIS is all about NOT the love of CHRIST  , but the love of power and money.    EVIL to the core .

Yet most under her and many of her daughters are seeing the all inclusive mindset as good and as love.    Talk about delusion .   but it had to come eventually as

what has been written would always come to pass. Somenones generation had to the THE generation that would SEEE this and Christs return.

LOOKS LIKE WE THAT GENERATION .   it draws ever nigh.

And how history repeats. For in time She will point to the beast , and Crusades will begin.     And hyprocrisy will be seen full force

for they constantly said and used bad seeds as examples , to get ALL INCLUSIVE to seem so good.  they attacked fundamentals as dangerous

used rome crusades and others to show how many have been killed in the name of religoin

and yet Watch how many in time end up killed by this all inclusive mindset.    This was never about world peace......its about WORLD CONTROL

and it was never about love, it was to get the world to simply come against THE TRUE ONES IN CHRIST .    yet many are blind to it and cannot see

where it is leading and whom its leading the world right too.    The hyprocrisy of their tolerance, love , peace and all inclusive unity will be seen

for what it really is...........but the wicked will not understand , only the wise in Christ will

as they have us dragged off to camps , killed , and all in the name of LOVE UNITY TOLERANCE FREEDOM PEACE..............yet most cannot see HISTORY DOES REPEAT

AND IT IS REPEATING RIGHT NOW .

HA. Whirled Peas... (peas in a blender) = MUSH.

Those that do not read/understand history are apt to repeat it.

I believe we are only called to pray for Peace in Jerusalem. Whirled peas are just so much green slime.
