If any of you out there look at fashions magazines or watch T.V. you will notice the subtle change in advertisement over the past 10 years. Magazine ads from perfume to watches featuring women alone are now shown with a man caressing her, or posing in very provocative positions. Shampoo, or clothes softener ads have turned into prodigies of sexual denotations giving ‘excuse’ for the garments of the man and woman to be cast on the carpet in little heaps as the two fall into bed; one on top of the other. The changes dawned on me slowly, but surely. I even made comparisons of magazines I had in 2002 and 2003 with two magazines I bought recently. Same type of pictures, but now with very ‘suggestive’ changes. What do the changes suggest? Fornication. Acts 15:20, 1Thes 4:3.

For those of you who are not aware, the demon who presides, or influence people to commit fornication is Poseidon. http://www.pantheon.org/articles/p/poseidon.html. Surprised! Then I’ll give you a few of his Biblical names: Baal, Numbers 22: 41 {along with his female counter part Ashtaroth 1 Kings 11:31, 1 Sam 12:10} and Dagon {half man, half fish god of the Philistines, Judges 16:23, 1 Chr 10:10}.

Now you are probably wondering what connection there is between a fish god and fornication? To sum it up, Baal (which means husband) is the god of fertility and the sea. When he was happy crops were abundant and the sea was safe. When he was angry, boats were capsized/ lost at sea, crops failed and war broke out. To ‘appease’ Poseidon {a.k.a. Neptune}, live horses were sacrificed by being drowned in the sea and/or (preferably) the oldest child of families were sacrificed and thrown into the fire. The place called Tophet is mentioned in the Bible. Jeremiah 19:13 Isaiah 30:33.

New Agers will tell you that we are in the Aquarian (Poseidon) age. I don’t believe in Astrology, but the tsunami, hurricanes floods and other ‘water’ tragedies of gargantuan magnitudes over the past two years was enough to make me stand up and take notice.


Who is Aquarius? What is the Aquarian age? Well, you won’t find a complete answer by consulting an astrologer, the best informant is….the Bible! Troy Lawrence, author of ‘The Secret Message of the Zodiac’ explains that the Hebrews (whose name for zodiac is Mazzaroth) had the names and meanings of constellations first. The Greeks and Romans got it afterward, using the zodiac (Mazzaroth) as a horoscope guide. A classic case of Satan trying to imitate God!

Each Mazzaroth sign has meaning of Biblical significance. Aquarius is the water bearer. A man pouring water out of a pot/pitcher. Jesus is the water bearer pouring living water out to Pisces the fish. Numbers 24:7, John 7:37, John 4:14. The fish (symbolizing Christians). The lesser constellations that support Aquarius are Cynus (a swan: a bird of return), Acts 1:11. Pegasus (the winged horse: signifying swiftness) Revelation 22:20, and Piscis Australis (the southern fish: God’s people).

don’t believe for one minute that the Baal worship of pagan times has stopped! It goes on today in the guise of other religions! And believe me they know who the evil Aquarius is and don’t hesitate to support him by promotion to spread his evil. Choose you this day whom ye will serve! Aquarius; the bad sign, or Jesus; the GOOD sign, the real Aquarius, who will return in this generation/age. Genesis 1: 14-16.

Please note: Both Poseidon and Baal mean husband-
The name Jezebel, top prophetess of Baal, means unhusbanded
Poseidon has a horse as one of his three symbols as does Jesus has three
symbols.

You can look in any good Bible dictionary for in depth info and definitions on the Biblical names of Baal and info on TOPHET/TOPHETH. Two good ones are UNGER'S Bible dictionary and HARPER'S Bible dictionary.

Actually, 'fornication' is a word derived from 'fornix', translated 'arch' - which comes from the fact that prostitutes used to hang out under the arches of the Colosseum. Fornication is the selling of one's body for sex. Not the worship of Baal.
but then, what would you define as sex before marriage? I appreciate your input. Are you bored, in the mood for a debate, or sticking to facts as you find them. Just curious! Not only that, but sin in anyform has its repercussions.

Pagan gods arose as people started trying to figure out how the world worked and where they came from. A mythology evolved and people created ideas of gods which became a part of the culture and eventually became "real" to the people. I could come up with a funny name, say that name is the god of television, and make sacrifices to it, but that doesn't mean my false god is an actual demon. It just means I'm praying into thin air. And if, a thousand years later, people watch television, they aren't going to encounter the "god" that I created.

Satan is known as the 'Prince of the Power of the Air.' Eph. 2:22

Back then (and even today) people used to see alot of beings in human form. They didn't just pick up and serve 'things' arbitrarily, they saw demons! Read Genesis chapter 6 and you will see what I mean.

This is (Eph. 2:22) in whom you also are being built together into a dwelling place of God in the Spirit.

It says nothing of Prince of power of air, so where exactly is that verse in the bible?

Genesis Chapter 6 KJV..........

1 And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them,
0.gif



2 That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose.

3 And the LORD said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years.
0.gif



4 There were giants [nephilim] in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown.

5 And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.

6 And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart.

7 And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them.

8 But Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD.

9 These are the generations of Noah: Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations, and Noah walked with God.

10 And Noah begat three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth.

11 The earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence.

12 And God looked upon the earth, and, behold, it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted his way upon the earth.

13 And God said unto Noah, The end of all flesh is come before me; for the earth is filled with violence through them; and, behold, I will destroy them with the earth.

14 Make thee an ark of gopher wood; rooms shalt thou make in the ark, and shalt pitch it within and without with pitch.

15 And this is the fashion which thou shalt make it of: The length of the ark shall be three hundred cubits, the breadth of it fifty cubits, and the height of it thirty cubits.

16 A window shalt thou make to the ark, and in a cubit shalt thou finish it above; and the door of the ark shalt thou set in the side thereof; with lower, second, and third stories shalt thou make it.

17 And, behold, I, even I, do bring a flood of waters upon the earth, to destroy all flesh, wherein is the breath of life, from under heaven; and every thing that is in the earth shall die.

18 But with thee will I establish my covenant; and thou shalt come into the ark, thou, and thy sons, and thy wife, and thy sons' wives with thee.
0.gif


19 And of every living thing of all flesh, two of every sort shalt thou bring into the ark, to keep them alive with thee; they shall be male and female.

20 Of fowls after their kind, and of cattle after their kind, of every creeping thing of the earth after his kind, two of every sort shall come unto thee, to keep them alive.

21 And take thou unto thee of all food that is eaten, and thou shalt gather it to thee; and it shall be for food for thee, and for them.

22 Thus did Noah; according to all that God commanded him, so did he.


I am sorry but I read Geneisis chapter 6 and I still don't know where you got your information.......would you please point it out directly?

I don't believe in the mythological gods either and can't seem to find where you are getting your information from the verses that you listed in your posts.

I don't believe in the mythological gods either and can't seem to find where you are getting your information from the verses that you listed in your posts.

Eph 2:2Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:


Sorry about that, I was one numeral off, but hey! This is great. I am glad all of you are actually looking up the scriptures. Well, I understand about the material. I usually print my things out because sometimes people read emails and other messages and don't get the jist right away (it happened to me) may be as a result of staring at the screen too long. That is why I choose to use large fonts, but, as I mentioned before, Zeus is a Greek god (demon the pagans served) who is also the pagan God Baal.

Back then (and now) people had a rough time because as stated in Eph. these demons used to actually interact with humans. Greek mythology goes into stories about how the gods mated with humans. Read Genesis one again. You don't have to take my references, but it is there! I don't believe in Greek mythology either,but the Greek were using stories to retell what happened to them. Nothing uncommon about that, peole will be people . People today keep journals about what happens to them. Hey, can we prove it didn't happen to them especially after the evidence of Genesis 6?

Okay that makes more sense now. I do believe that he is talking about Satan here and we have heard Satan being called the Prince of Darkness as well. So I am with you on that one, but the greek god mythology stuff, I still can't get my brain around that enough to think it is no more than fiction.

Good discussion!!

It is hard to swallow, but I have to admit demonic sightings are not commonly discussed these days. Face it, do people really want to let others know they have seen an evil spirit? It shouldn't be that way, but there you have it.

People should feel comfortable enough to approach other Christians in their community regardless of what they see and experience. It is just as bad as the minimum of rape reports. It happens, but goes unreported very often because of people being afraid of being ridiculed.

...and submit this article in the whole: here it is!

A Good Sign

If any of you out there look at fashions magazines or watch T.V. you will notice the subtle change in advertisement over the past 10 years. Magazine ads from perfume to watches featuring women alone are now shown with a man caressing her, or posing in very provocative positions.

Shampoo, or clothes softener ads have turned into prodigies of sexual denotations giving ‘excuse’ for the garments of the man and woman to be cast on the carpet in little heaps as the two fall into bed. The changes dawned on me slowly, but surely. I even made comparisons of magazines I had in 2002 and 2003 with two magazines I bought recently. Same type of pictures, but now with very ‘suggestive’ changes. What do the changes suggest? Fornication. Acts 15:20, 1Thes 4:3.

For those of you who are not aware, the demon who presides, or influence people to commit fornication is Poseidon. Surprised! Then I’ll give you a few of his Biblical names: Baal, Numbers 22: 41 {along with his female counter part Ashtaroth 1 Kings 11:31, 1 Sam 12:10} and Dagon {half man, half fish god of the Philistines, Judges 16:23, 1 Chr 10:10}.

Now you are probably wondering what connection there is between a fish god and fornication? To sum it up, Baal (which means husband) is the god of fertility and the sea. To ‘appease’ Baal {a.k.a. Neptune}, children were sacrificed and thrown into the fire. Merrill F. Unger, Th.D., Ph.D. who wrote ‘Unger’s Bible Dictionary’ tells us about this infamous place of worship on page 1109 of the dictionary. The area where these sacrifices occurred is called Tophet and is mentioned in the Bible. Jeremiah 19:13 Isaiah 30:33. Baal is also called Beelzebub. When translated Beelzebub is the Lord of the Flies.

Who is Aquarius? What is the Aquarian age? Poseidon was similar to his brother Zeus in exerting his power on women and in objectifying masculinity. He had many love affairs and fathered numerous children. Poseidon once married a Nereid, Amphitrite, and produced Triton who was half-human and half-fish. He also impregnated the Gorgon Medusa to conceive Chrysaor and Pegasus, the flying horse.

The rape of Aethra by Poseidon resulted in the birth of Theseus; and he turned Caeneus into a man, at her request, after raping her. Another rape involved Amymone when she tried to escape from a satyr and Poseidon saved her. One of the most notorious love affairs of Poseidon involves his sister, Demeter. Poseidon pursued Demeter and to avoid him she turned herself into a mare. In his lust for her, Poseidon transformed himself into a stallion and captured her. Their procreation resulted in a horse, Arion. Poseidon is Greek for "Husband" (possibly of wheat), and therefore it is thought that he and Demeter (goddess of wheat) are a good match because they reign as the god and goddess of fertility.
http://www.pantheon.org/articles/p/poseidon.html

Poseidon was a cruel demon that promoted lustful, incestuous and adulterous debauchery of every kind. Every act of fornication committed is likened to a sacrifice to the demon Baal. The irony of the situation is that Baal required sacrifices of the very children created through these sinful sexual acts!

Persons in the New Age movement will tell you that we are in the Aquarian (Poseidon) age. I don’t believe in Astrology, but the tsunami, hurricanes floods and other ‘water’ tragedies of gargantuan magnitudes over the past two years was enough to make me stand up and take note.
Samael Aun Weor, the founder of the Gnostic movement, tells us that the Age of Aquarius began on February 4, 1962. On that day there occurred a very interesting astronomical (and astrological) event. The planets Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn, along with the sun, the earth, and the moon, were all found in the constellation of Aquarius. In addition, a solar and lunar eclipse occurred which was visible in some parts of the Old World. The cosmic event that transpired on that day is extremely rare. Such a congregation of planets occurs only once every 2160 years, moving from one constellation to the next. Each time it happens it marks the beginning of a new era, or New Age, for humanity. February 4, 1962 marked the end of the Age of Pisces and the beginning of the Age of Aquarius.
http://home.earthlink.net/~gnosisla/February5.html


That is the scientific answer. I also believe it is plausible as it is in accordance with the research done by Troy Lawrence, author of ‘The Secret Message of the Zodiac’ who explains that the Hebrews (whose name for zodiac is Mazzaroth) had the names and meanings of constellations first. The Greeks and Romans got it afterward, using the zodiac (Mazzaroth) as a horoscope guide. Remember Noah and the flood? This would also have taken place under a water sign (Pisces, Aquarius).

Please note: Both Poseidon and Baal mean husband- the name Jezebel, top prophetess of Baal, means unsuspended. Poseidon has three symbols as does Jesus has three symbols. A classic case of Satan trying to imitate God!

Each Mazzaroth sign has meaning of Biblical significance. Aquarius is the water bearer. A man pouring water out of a pot/pitcher. Jesus is the water bearer pouring living water out to Pisces the fish. Numbers 24:7, John 7:37, John 4:14. The fish (symbolizing Christians). The lesser constellations that support Aquarius are Cynus (a swan: a bird of return), Acts 1:11. Pegasus (the winged horse: signifying swiftness) Revelation 22:20, and Piscis Australis (the southern fish: God’s people).

Don’t believe for one minute that the Baal worship of pagan times has stopped! It goes on today in the guise of other religions and believe me they know who the evil Aquarius is and won’t hesitate to support him by spreading his evil. Choose you this day whom ye will serve! The bad sign; Aquarius, or Jesus; the GOOD sign, the real Aquarius, who will return in this generation. Genesis 1: 14-16.
