Your scripture reference is confusing.

Daniel 2:2

Then the king commanded to call the magicians, and the astrologers, and the sorcerers, and the Chaldeans, for to shew the king his dreams. So they came and stood before the king.

Daniel 2:48

Then the king made Daniel a great man, and gave him many great gifts, and made him ruler over the whole province of Babylon, and chief of the governors over all the wise men of Babylon.

Daniel 4:9

O Belteshazzar, master of the magicians, because I know that the spirit of the holy gods is in thee, and no secret troubleth thee, tell me the visions of my dream that I have seen, and the interpretation thereof.

Just because someone labels you, does not mean you are what that label represents. Who/what is Dake?

If you want scripture that says "Daniel was an astrologer," You will not find it. You will likewise find no scripture saying that you exist, but I assume you do.

Just as I thought, you can not provide scripture to back your claim, so it is man made.

If you are interested in studying the zodiac and researching the references I cited, I will give them to you again. D. James Kennedy, "the true Zodiac." Hal Lindsey, "The kings of the East." If you do not have initiative to research the subject for yourself, you are obviously not very interested in obtaining the truth.

I trust Hal Lindsey enough that if he says Persian tradition holds an astrological alignment will foretell the coming of the King, or Messiah; I will take his word that is indeed what Persian tradition holds.

I once thought Hal Lindsey was a prophet with his prophesy of the rapture coming in, if I remember correctly, 1984. He proved himself a false prophet, and if it were in the OT times, he would of been stoned to death. He is counting his blessings that we are now under grace. Still, it is my personal belief that he is a man full of knowledge that twisted his knowledge to fit his beliefs.

It is quite obvious from scripture that Daniel was taught the ways of the sooth sayers, magicians, and astrologers. Daniel merely understood the true meaning of what he saw in the stars.

Heresy! Daniel was a man of God, full of His Spirit. It was through His Spirit that we was able to explain dreams. Allow me to remind you of scripture. "Inasmuch as an excellent spirit, knowledge, understanding, interpreting dreams, solving riddles, and explaining enigmas were found in this Daniel" He was not any of what you claim him to be. You have alread admitted that you can not find scripture to back your claim.

I have a series of questions for you. I am sure you will not answer them, but I will pose them any way.

Surely, you can go to the scriptures and find an answer for them. You seem to think that no outside sources may be used to draw logical conclusion based on the framework put forth in the scriptures.

Who were the Kings from the East?

How did they know to come to "the Star?"

How did they know "the Star" signified the birth of The King?

Any open minded person who can read the text of the New Testament would be forced to come to the conclusion that they were astrologers. They had been left instruction to look for a specific astrological alignment and when they saw it, they would know the King had come. Where would they have obtained this instruction if not From Daniel or one of the Other Hebrew prophets?

If you want concrete proof Daniel left the command to look for the Messiah, you will not find it. However, there is more than enough evidence for the logical person to conclude that he, or one of his friends did. It is a much better explanation that you will be able to provide for the three questions I asked you.

What does Matthew say?

Matthew 2:1-12

Wise Men from the East

Now after Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, behold, wise men from the East came to Jerusalem, saying,

Just because someone labels you, does not mean you are what that label represents. Who/what is Dake?

For such an expert on biblical sources, I can not believe you do not know who F.J. Dake is. He is known as Dake and always referenced as Dake. There is only one Dake to write Christian commentary that I am aware of.

Commentaries are not the bible. They are written by men, with mans ideas. We were discussing scripture.

Commentaries are not the bible. They are written by men, with mans ideas. We were discussing scripture.

Firstly, you do not dictate what I can and can not discuss. You discuss what you want, I will discuss what I want. I do not tell you what you can discuss, and likewise I will not be told by you what I can discuss. If you do not like what I discuss, you may feel free to refrain from discussion with me. I would think that is a simple concept. "we" were not discussing scripture. I was discussing a topic. The fact that you choose to say the discussion will be based only on scripture does not change what I was discussing.

Secondly, Any discussion you make of scripture then becomes "commentary." Since you are not discussing commentary, why do you even post? Should your responses simply be limited to a Chapter and verse citation? You want it both ways. You can not have it both ways. It amazes me how much you ramble on with your opinions about what scripture means while discounting all other material as worthless commentary. Those who comment the most seem to the ones who are the least teachable.

When I first heard Dr. Kennedy teach on the Zodiac, It upset me. Had I not known his other teachings and deeply respected his Biblical knowledge, I would have at that point dismissed him as an idiot. However, my mind is always open. I discovered that he was correct in his teaching about the zodiac. I also disovered that his citations and outside evidences stand up to scrutiny. It is obvious that your mind is so narrow, you will not even make yourself knowledgable on the concept before dismissing it as heresy.

You remind me of an old man in the Church I used to attend. His favorite quote was "No man is my teacher, the Holy Spirit is my teacher." Is it not an odd thing that he taught Sunday School? No one can teach him, but he thinks he is entitled to teach everyone else. I used to make him so mad that he could not see straight. I think Kenneth Haggin Describes this person best. "Their mind is like concrete, well mixed up and thoroughly set."

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
