MY THOUGHTS ABOUT THE UPCOMING ECLIPSE: Stop worrying about it, and just enjoy this natural astronomical phenomenon and praise ADONAI!
Many "religious" people knock themselves out to spread doom and gloom every time there's a major astronomical event. Conspiracy theories fly across the Internet at lightening speed with everybody wanting to be the first to "warn" everyone about the "dangers" associated with total eclipses. It happens every time, and the conspiracy theorists are proven wrong every time...
Remember, some HR "bigwigs" did the same thing with the "Blood Moon Tetrad" back in 2014 - and ... NOTHING happened!
IN RESPONSE TO THE "BLOOD MOON" hype of 2014, my late husband, Air Force Lt. Col. (Ret.) William J. Welker, a physicist and amateur astronomer, wrote an article outlining certain facts - including this:
If an astronomical event is to have significance, it MUST be sanctified from Israel.
Think about it. There have been total lunar eclipses for thousands of years. All the astronomical events had to be visible from Israel, or they knew nothing about the event! (Please see our article for full details.)
No one could place significance on a total eclipse they did not see, and did not even know happened! Why would YHWH say in Genesis 1:14 that the sun, moon, stars were for "signs" if His people in the Land did not (or could not) SEE the sign?
To illustrate, Bill provided just ONE example of many, of a SIGNIFICANT astronomical event: the date of the nativity! He wrote:
"On the night of Sep 13th, 5 BCE, there was a well placed total Lunar Eclipse. By 'well placed', I mean that the moon rose that night, well before Jupiter, and was of course, nearly full. The eclipse began at about 8:30 PM, with the moon 35 degrees high – perfectly placed from Jerusalem to see the entire eclipse."
A total lunar eclipse marked the birth- fully visible to all of Israel! Now THAT's a sign!
