AS FLOWER OF GRASS
A while ago the pop star Katy Perry and five other women claimed to "go to space". This mission caused a great uproar on social media.
I am not interested here in discussing if this so-called space mission was fake or staged, but in looking at the symbolism of the ritual, in regards to Biblical symbology, and what this ritual signifies to us as believers. While it is of course a ritual belonging to the devil, it still signifies the truth if understood Biblically and not from their viewpoint.
For them it was all about a promotions of humanistic and esoteric doctrines of devils, but the truth shone right through for me, especially seeing Katy Perry with that fragile little "flower of grass" . It just emphasised to me the emptiness with which man comes to the table, his lack of understanding about just how fragile he is, his foolishness as seen from the eyes of God's viewpoint and ultimately the inevitability of mankind's fall when he turns to his own way. To me that was all symbolized by the tiny flower this "star" clutched: the simple daisy which brought to my mind Peter's words which emphasise the futility of man's efforts at making war with the Word of God, which stands forever :
The whole rocket spectacle is symbolically understood indicating man's attempt at ascending to heaven by himself and has - as expected - failed miserably and has become an embarassing spectacle and laughing stock infront of the entire world.
Their attempt to ascend high enough to achieve "weightlessness" signifies SYMBOLICALLY man's attempt tp pass the "test" of being righteous through their own means (indicated by the test of the feather of Maat the Egyptian goddess). The whole humanistic effort of man was always doomed.
This is symbolized by the ascent and descent of the rocket, marked with a large black feather.
To me the feather symbolizes man's attempt to create a system to rule and judge himself. It probably refers to the feather of the Egyptian goddess Maat, though at it surface level it has to do with reaching weightlessness by going to "space".
You can read about Egypt's belief in the process of judgement here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maat
But ultimately this is about not only ancient Egypt's rebellion toward God and their attempt to judge themselves, but likewise modern man who has created a system called humanism, in which man does according to what he deems right.
In those days there was no king in Israel: every man did that which was right in his own eyes.(Judges 21:25)
FLOWER OF GRASS VERSUS THE SOLID ROCK:
The ascent was inevitably followed by descent, the fall back to earth, and then mockery by all. They have chosen to JUDGE THEMSELVES using their own unjust scales and they were STILL found wanting, for man cannot reach the heavens no matter how hard he tries, even using HIS OWN scales. It is at best a fleeting moment of ecstasy of reaching the top, only to be followed by the inevitable fall. All he can do is hope for a soft landing.
FOR WHOM THE BELL TOLLS:
The death knell was rung SYMBOLICALLY even before the "take off" by the SIX WOMEN
Pope Francis died about 7 days after the "flight", and they tolled the bell for him 88 times ....
FOR WHOM THE BELL TOLLS
death knell
- the tolling of a bell to mark someone's death.
- used to refer to the imminent destruction or failure of something.
They have JUDGED THEMSELVES UNWORTHY.
God did not judge them. They chose cisterns with holes that could not hold water and prided themselves in saying "Who am I to judge?" Yet they spent their days in 24/7 condemnation and judgement of the just. They refused the PERFECT VESSEL - THE WORD OF GOD- that can help man judge righteous judgement despite his own unworthiness. They took pride in false humility and the worship of men and the "stars"
Then Paul and Barnabas waxed bold, and said, It was necessary that the word of God should first have been spoken to you: but seeing ye put it from you, and JUDGE YOURSELVES UNWORTHY of everlasting life, lo, we turn to the Gentiles.
(Acts 13:46)
and
But though he had done so many miracles before them, yet they believed not on him: That the saying of Esaias the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spake, Lord, who hath believed our report? and to whom hath the arm of the Lord been revealed? Therefore they could not believe, because that Esaias said again, He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart; that they should not see with their eyes, nor understand with their heart, and be converted, and I should heal them. These things said Esaias, when he saw his glory, and spake of him. Nevertheless among the chief rulers also many believed on him; but because of the Pharisees they did not confess him, lest they should be put out of the synagogue: For they loved the praise of men more than the praise of God. Jesus cried and said, He that believeth on me, believeth not on me, but on him that sent me. And he that seeth me seeth him that sent me. I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me should not abide in darkness. And if any man hear my words, and believe not, I JUDGE HIM NOT : for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world. He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: THE WORD THAT I HAVE SPOKEN, THE SAME SHALL JUDGE HIM in the last day.
(John 12:37-48)
The writing is on the wall now, that everyone can see, even the wold can see it, but those that know their God can "read" what it means: Numbered, finished, weighed, found wanting, divided, given over....
Mene; God hath numbered thy kingdom, and finished it.
Tekel; Thou art weighed in the balances, and art found wanting.
Peres; Thy kingdom is divided, and given to the Medes and Persians.
AS FLOWER OF GRASS:
1 Peter 1:24-25 King James Version (KJV) For All flesh is as grass, And all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth away: But the word of the Lord endureth for ever. And this is the word which by the gospel is preached unto you.
Amen. Outstanding study dear Sister. Thank you for sharing.
