One of the great proofs that Scripture is the Word of
God and the God of the Bible is the God of Creation is the nation Israel. TheyÕre
a miracle nation in the earth and their preservation through time is evidence.
*****
The symbol of Israel in the Bible is the Òburning bush,Ó
not the Star of David, which in the Book of Amos is identified as the star of
their pagan god Moloch.Ó
As the passage in Amos 5 reads: ÒBut ye have borne the
tabernacle of your Moloch and Chiun your images, the
star of your god, which ye made to yourselves.
[27] Therefore will I cause you to go into captivity beyond Damascus, saith the LORD, whose name is The God of hosts.Ó
Jordan confirms, ÒThat six-pointed star is really a symbol
of a pagan god that had infested the nation with their pagan religion in the
time of the Prophet Amos and before. And thereÕs a reason they would use a
star. ThereÕs a reason the Mohammadens use the crescent
moon and that kind of stuff.
ÒThere is a whole raft of pagan religions in that part
of the world, and always has been from ancient times, that worship the heavens.
It all goes back to Genesis 11 when Òthey built a tower to reach to heaven,Ó
and they corrupted the constellations and the signs and messages in the heavens
into pagan use.Ó

Stars in the Bible are symbols and representatives of
certain kinds of creatures, such as angels. Satan and his angels are compared
to the falling stars.
Just look at this great passage about the Second
Advent in Mark 13: ÒBut in those days, after that tribulation, the sun shall be
darkened, and the moon shall not give her light,
[25] And the stars of heaven shall fall, and the powers that are in
heaven shall be shaken.
[26] And then shall they see the Son of man coming in the clouds with
great power and glory.
[27] And then shall he send his angels, and shall gather together his
elect from the four winds, from the uttermost part of the earth to the
uttermost part of heaven.Ó

What God was doing in the six days He made the earth
was actually recreating the fallen creation that had been destroyed by the
satanic rebellion of the angels in heaven.
ÒHe restored it and placed man on it to subdue it,
bringing it back under the headship of the Lord Jesus Christ to win it back,Ó
explains Jordan. ÒWhen God rested on the seventh day . . . Isaiah 40 says that the Lord
does not weary. When you finish the job, thereÕs no more to do to it, so isnÕt
it now time to use it? I mean, you made the thing to
do what with it?
ÒGod literally set that seventh day apart as the day in
which He was going to bring His house, His throne, down here and and set it up here on Planet Earth!
ÒWhen you read Genesis, you realize He only gave Adam
the responsibility to run things . . . God told him, ÔAll you got to do is do
this for is a week, buddy, because next Saturday IÕm showing up and IÕm
bringing the house with me.Õ
ÒAdam and eve faced the adversary that first week and
they failed. By the way, Thursday is the day they failed and thatÕs the fifth
day, so they had four good days in before they sinned. Now do you kind of
understand something about why (the creation week) is divided into four and
three?
ÒThat seventh day is a significant day in the
prophetic Scripture about GodÕs intent to restore His authority in the earth. ItÕs
not an insignificant thing the way God has constructed these things. It wasnÕt
just something that happened by accidental coincidence. ThereÕs something in
the warp and woof of the doctrine here.Ó
