THE HEAVENS DECLARED (poster PDF)

O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?
The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law.
But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
1 Corinthians 15:55-57



Dec 6 - Orion’s Belt and the Celestial Bridge / Milky Way

Betelgeuse means “the coming of the Branch.”
Media pointing us to Betelgeuse! Whether true or not - looking up! 
DEC 26, 2019 - A giant star is acting strange, and astronomers are buzzing
The red giant Betelgeuse is the dimmest seen in years, prompting some speculation that the star is about to explode. 

THE CONSTELLATION ORION is one of the most recognizable patterns in the night sky, visible around the world. But if you’ve looked at Orion recently and thought something seemed off, you’re not wrong: The giant red star Betelgeuse, which marks the hunter’s right shoulder, is the dimmest it’s been in almost a century.
Normally, Betelgeuse is among the 10 brightest stars in the sky. However, the red giant began dimming in October, and by mid-December, the star had faded so much it wasn’t even in the top 20, Villanova University
Social media and news headlines are ablaze with talk of the red giant star Betelgeuse 
since astronomers noted that it’s growing fainter than ever before. Yes, the star is nearing the end of its life, and that end will likely be explosive.


“‘Hear, O Joshua, the high priest,
You and your companions who sit before you,
For they are a wondrous sign;
For behold, I am bringing forth
My Servant the BRANCH.”
‭‭Zechariah‬ ‭3:8‬ ‭
““Behold, the days are coming,” says the LORD, “That I will raise to David a Branch of righteousness;
A King shall reign and prosper,
And execute judgment and righteousness in the earth.”
‭‭Jeremiah‬ ‭23:5‬ ‭‬‬
“In that day the Branch of the LORD shall be beautiful and glorious;
And the fruit of the earth shall be excellent and appealing For those of Israel who have escaped.”
‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭4:2‬ ‭
“There shall come forth a
Rod from the stem of Jesse,
And a Branch shall grow out of his roots.
The Spirit of the LORD shall rest upon Him,
The Spirit of wisdom and understanding,
The Spirit of counsel and might,
The Spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD.
His delight is in the fear of the LORD ...
Isaiah‬ ‭11:1-9‬

DEC 13, 2019 – Christie’s Latest Auction Sold $6 Million Worth of Rare Watches From Rolex, Patek Philippe and More - The auction also included an unusual and tiny Patek Philippe "backpack" watch and a timepiece owned by a former American president. Patek Philippes in the sale, the most charming, hands-down, was a one-of-a-kind watch designed as a tiny backpack. It was made in 1875 for Elbert E. Farman, former diplomatic agent and the American Consul-General to Cairo, Egypt. Farman was evidently something of an adventurer, and the 18-karat gold, enamel and platinum watch was thus designed as an explorer’s backpack … Farman was responsible for bringing Cleopatra’s Needle, the Egyptian obelisk, to New York’s Central Park as a gift from the Egyptian government. https://robbreport.com/style/watch-collector/christies-auctions-watches-from-ernest-hemingway-and-george-h-w-bush-2887034/

JERUSALEM (Reuters) - Israel’s $3.6 billion offshore Leviathan field started production on Tuesday, paving the way for multi-billion dollar gas export deals with Egypt and Jordan in the coming weeks. Natural gas began flowing from Israel’s largest field despite regulatory delays and court petitions by groups opposing the project raised doubts that its operators would meet their end-of-2019 timeline.
However, Texas-based Noble Energy, Israel’s Delek Drilling and Ratio Oil said that operations had started, effectively doubling the amount of Israeli-produced gas and lifting shares in both Israeli firms.
