Catastrophism: God's Judgments
Getting Ready for Eternity
Part 3
Lucifer’s Spectacular Shiny Refraction for Infra-Human Artifacts
Image: https://burningman.org/
You were formed to serve God. But there is a contender for your worship. When a King issues a decree it is written in stone and cannot be revoked, even if it is the Creator. A usurper can only counterfeit the originating King’s decree. God said that He would not destroy the world by a flood, and He made a Covenant with humanity to that effect, and provided the rainbow as a sign of His promise. Lucifer, being the Angel of Light, felt this infringed on his territory and so he hatched the plan to turn humanity into colorful luminous beings in his image. Researchers, scientists, spiritual deviants, and agencies are complicit in this endeavor. Humans created in the Divine Image of God would go extinct.
We saw our first rainbow clouds at the turn of the New Millennium that subtly began a metamorphous of humanity as gossamer bindings, so sheer that we do not see them, began changing mankind. If you closely enough you will begin to see the glints of a spectacular colorful reflections supernatural signatures of Lucifer’s artificial world that we glimpsed when we examined King Hiram. This metaphysical world is vast, spanning Lucifer himself to extraterrestrial intelligence's. It is bizarre world of light, refraction, glint, glare, and mirrored surfaces. Our Universe is a microcosm of Creation with a Plasma Electric element to it with pulsating flashes illuminating through interdimensional mirrors and worlds.
My friends, you are being changed into luminescent beings of light.
Faith Lesson: I understand that this is a war over the radiant glory of God that Satan wants to snatch from God, Jesus, and my life. I stand on the Word of God that says I cannot be snatched from God the Father or His Son Jesus.
A Prismatic Experience
I look at everything a lesson in faith, and so it was when I had cataract surgery. I had ever reason to believe a favorable outcome but when my bandages we removed transported me to a world of prismatic colorful dancing halos, auras, flashes, geometry, and glints. Supposedly, this is a rare complication from cataract surgery. The remedy, although a salvage operation at best, are prismatic eyeglasses which do nothing for the vision, but rather tricks my brain into seeing less of the dynamic world that I now see without the glasses. I wondered why the Lord had taken me to this place and know I know why. He was allowing me to see a hidden plan of Lucifer.
But Joseph replied, “Do not be afraid. Am I in the place of God? As for you, what you intended against me for evil, God intended for good, in order to accomplish a day like this—to preserve the lives of many people. Therefore do not be afraid. Genesis 50:20
Faith Lesson: Oh Lord Jesus, open my eyes so that I might behold your glory and the supernatural world that surrounds me.
Character of Lucifer
It is best to review what Prophets Ezekiel and Isaiah have to say about Lucifer to keep those statements fresh in our minds before moving on to the perversions of radiance. Any emphasis is mine with commentary in brackets. This is one of those occasions to view these verses in a literal, historical, allegorical or metaphorical, mystical, and prophetical as well as gleaning helpful hints for your life. It is also time to begin to think about these verses in cosmological terms, on a grander scale. In this article we stay within the perimeter of infra-human catastrophism, but in my next article, we well begin to delve into the cosmological applications.
The word of the Lord came again unto me, saying,
2 Son of man, say unto the prince of Tyrus, Thus saith the Lord God; Because thine heart is lifted up, and thou hast said, I am a God, I sit in the seat of God, in the midst of the seas; yet thou art a man, and not God, though thou set thine heart as the heart of God:
[Throne. He made for himself in the air, over the sea, with a mechanism that was a replica of the seven heavens, he sat down on the Highest One. He sits in the place of strength for I am in the heart of the seas, surrounded by seas. Now, who can touch me for I am like God. Notice all the I Am's. I also sit in the heavens and all the nations, and all the merchants of the earth shall bring tribute. Because of my wealth I have no need to till the earth like the commoners for they are dependent upon me. I am a trafficker of island among the seas just as God dwells among many waters.]
[You are a man, not a god that you would be able to overpower your enemies. How could you make such a foolish mistake?]
[Because you made your heart proud on account of the many nations who perfected your beauty-think Anti-Christ]
[Refers to King Hiram historically with his impregnable ocean fortress, Lucifer literally, midrashically- even aliens and supernatural beings are considered, linguistically-Prince of Tyre is the leader to whom all turn for all their needs-think anti-Christ]
3 Behold, thou art wiser than Daniel; there is no secret that they can hide from thee:
4 With thy wisdom and with thine understanding thou hast gotten thee riches, and hast gotten gold and silver into thy treasures:
5 By thy great wisdom and by thy traffick hast thou increased thy riches, and thine heart is lifted up because of thy riches:
6 Therefore thus saith the Lord God; Because thou hast set thine heart as the heart of God;
7 Behold, therefore I will bring strangers upon thee, the terrible of the nations: and they shall draw their swords against the beauty of thy wisdom, and they shall defile thy brightness.
[Persia and Babylon. They will empty their swords upon you. Euphemism for sexual molestation] [brightness-to shine]
8 They shall bring thee down to the pit [grave], and thou shalt die the deaths of them that are slain in the midst of the seas.
9 Wilt thou yet say before him that slayeth thee, I am God? but thou shalt be a man, and no God, in the hand of him that slayeth thee.
[Self-delusion will not help you]
10 Thou shalt die the deaths of the uncircumcised by the hand of strangers: for I have spoken it, saith the Lord God.
11 Moreover the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
12 Son of man, take up a lamentation upon the king of Tyrus, and say unto him, Thus saith the Lord God; Thou sealest up the sum, full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty
[Referring to the crown of creation-Adam, before he sinned, yet he did not think himself a god. It is interesting to note, that in the Hebrew it generally means, You possess the wisdom to seal and give form to all likenesses and images. This is particularly true in relation to the die in which coins are cast and the images upon the coins. Think Revelation 13 ].
13 Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God; every precious stone was thy covering, the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: the workmanship of thy tabrets and of thy pipes was prepared in thee in the day that thou wast created.
[Metaphorically, Tyre was paradise for King Hiram.]
[These are the same gems used on the Choshen (Ephod) of the Levitical High Priest. What this means is that Lucifer not only wanted to be God, and King, he also wanted to be High Priest, which is against God's law]
[The precious stones enumerated in the Garden of Eden formed canopies over Adam and Eve's head.]
14 Thou art the anointed cherub that covereth; and I have set thee so: thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire.
[In the Garden of Eden which metaphorical is likened unto the Temple Mount]
[Midrash says the covering were the canopies of the firmament, walls were of precious stones, garments had precious stone affixed, with sweet leisurely music playing, as the sweet singing of a bird. On the day of your creation you had the ability for music.]
[Most believe he went beyond being merely human and entered the angelic realm with the caveat that the words mean anoint and exalted, as well as protector(to spread wide your wings of protection)-all words for Jesus the Messiah]
[Fiery stones could be flintstone which causes fire when struck with iron. Flint is a metaphor for immense power of destruction. It could mean that it will up fire from within you. Your words are like fire that could provide beneficial warmth or scorch]
15 Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee.
16 By the multitude of thy merchandise they have filled the midst of thee with violence, and thou hast sinned: therefore I will cast thee as profane out of the mountain of God: and I will destroy thee, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire.
[Your wealth made you arrogant]
{The economic situation was so strong that business associates could not afford to protest against evil doing]
17 Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness: I will cast thee to the ground, I will lay thee before kings, that they may behold thee.
[Pride erodes wisdom.]
18 Thou hast defiled thy sanctuaries by the multitude of thine iniquities, by the iniquity of thy traffick; therefore will I bring forth a fire from the midst of thee, it shall devour thee, and I will bring thee to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all them that behold thee.
Dirge bemoans Hiram as god, a being of spirit which absorbs all earthly existence into the fiery core (fiery stones) of holiness which defines his essence could have nurtured Tyre's wealth into a mighty edifice testifying to the boundless goodness which God showers upon man. Instead it did not protect Hiram, the holy mountain was desecrated, Eden disappeared, no cherub wings hovered over the great metropolis, and unprotected it crumbled. I would ponder a cosmic catastrophe that will culminate in a New Heaven and New Earth] [Fire here is a metaphor for sin or pride]
19 All they that know thee among the people shall be astonished at thee: thou shalt be a terror, and never shalt thou be any more.
20 Again the word of the Lord came unto me, saying, Ezekiel: 28:1-20
And Isaiah:
[A prelude from 13:20 is that the beasts of the desert will lie down and Babylonian houses will be filled with desert eagle owls and demons will dance there. Wild cats in the culture referred to the eagle owls that will cry out of the Babylonian palaces and jackals will pleasure the palaces. The time will come soon and will not last long.]
A Song of King of Babylon
“How you are fallen from the heavens,
O]Lucifer, O glowing morning star!
[The wonder and amazement at Nebuchadnezzar's degradation continues. The Morning Star, the brightest star in the heavens has been struck down. It is as if a star has fallen to earth. Representing Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon]
How you are cut down to the ground,
You who weakened the nations!
[Once Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon cast lots to cut down nations and leaders is now been cut down and fallen to the ground.]
13 For you have said in your heart:
‘I will ascend into heaven,
I will exalt my throne above the stars of God;
I will also sit on the mount of the congregation [Mt. Zion]
On the farthest sides of the north;
[God's enemies-the most distant parts of Zaphon, Mt. Zaphon in Syria, considered holy by the Canaanites, a sort of Canaanite Mt. Olympus]
14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds,
I will be like the Most High.’
[In his arrogance Nebuchadnezzar thought he was impregnable to opposition as if he were ruling in the heavens. Ride the clouds like God, Psalm 68:5]
15 Yet you shall be brought down to Sheol,
To the lowest depths of the Pit.
[Nebuchadnezzar who had wished to dwell above the clouds, will instead find himself in the depths of the netherworld. He serves as an example of all who are haughty and proud, with grandiose beliefs about themselves, for they too, shall fall to the ground. Those who stare at his death will be in utter amazement and wonder that this mortal is really the same one who caused the earth to tremble and kingdoms to quake]
16 “Those who see you will gaze at you,
And consider you, saying:
‘Is this the man who made the earth tremble,
Who shook kingdoms,
17 Who made the world as a wilderness
And destroyed its cities,
Who]did not open the house of his prisoners?’ Isaiah 14:12-17
[Is this the same one who had turned the world into a wilderness and even destroyed his very own cities, and in his anger, did not release any prisoners from his place of detention?]
Faith Lesson: I will take to heart: The prudent see danger and take cover, but the simple keep going and suffer the consequences.
Proverbs 22:3. If it sounds to go to be true, it is too good to be true.
Dangers of Cross Species Genetic Modification
A New Class of Medicines through DNA Editing has been announced in the New England Journal of Medicine. Genome editing is a set of methods used to change the DNA of a cell with single base-pair precision. It is a specific form of gene therapy engineering cells of your genome by editing. Researchers hope to create a new class of medicines for disease that cost mere pennies, and to infiltrate then change your eyes, skin, and possibly your whole body into a cross-species being of light. Below are excerpts from a recent article but it does not go into the other more technical documents on the harvesting and implantation of colorful proteins from other species into mankind to augment or replace our God given-senses.
DNA synthesis is fundamental to the work of Ginkgo Bioworks, an organism design company to engineer 1 billion base pairs of DNA. Ginkgo uses large-scale DNA synthesis to feed into highly automated foundries that engineer microorganisms for their customers.
Efforts to use technology to enhance humans’ natural capabilities are moving out of the scientific fringes. A recent study on mice suggests it may eventually be possible to imbue people with infrared vision by injecting nanoparticles into their eyeballs. The visual range of mammals encompasses a tiny sliver of the electromagnetic spectrum referred to as visible light. But other animals, like certain snakes and insects, have developed the ability to detect infrared radiation.
The photons of longer-wavelength light, like infrared, don’t have the energy to get our human eyes to detect and signal our brain. In the past people have used devices that let us see in the dark. Night vision goggles amplify scant visible light from sources like the moon and stars, as well as ambient infrared or even active infrared illumination.
It’s also very hard to predict how the human brain would interpret the new information. It’s quite possible the new sensory information would be overwhelming, Glen Jeffery, a visual neuroscientist at University College London, told Nature.
The human brain is also remarkably malleable when it comes to augmenting the senses, so it’s not unrealistic to expect our brains to learn to make sense of the new sensory information.
Elegant Interplay of Colorful Smart Skin
Image: https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/03/190306152406.htm
You have surely heard about the Smart Skin that is being engineered for military and other applications. Scientists are imitating creatures such as the squid that uses its colorful and patterned skin as camouflage and sexual signaling in a virtuoso display.
God knew that man had a propensity for evil all of his days and so after creation He instructed living species each to be unto their own kind. He had good reason for this as you will soon see.
The bio-inspired paradigm-shifting discovery brings researchers closer to structure a Smart Skin that uses an elegant interplay of pigmentary action and structural coloration using chromatophores.
Image: https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/03/190306152406.htm
Chromatophore organs contain a structure of light-scattering pigment granules emanating within chromatocytes have been presumed to be the sole source of coloration in these complex organs. It also has a biochemical component of this reflective coloration as reflectin proteins distributed in sheath cells that envelop each chromatocyte. This pigment resides in nanostructured granules with a crystallin interfacing tightly with pigment molecules. There is an intricate biophotonic interplay between pigmentary and structural coloration elements - a feature that may help inspire the development of new classes of engineered materials that change color and pattern.
The richest and most diverse color patterns in the animal kingdom occur in organisms that have evolved elegant combinations of structural and pigmentary elements to manipulate light efficiently.
This fast and dynamic adaptation involves the use of specialized dermal structures that modulate the animal’s appearance through multiple effects. These structures include pigmentary chromatophore in the skin and two other structural non-pigmentary coloration cell types: iridocytes that can specularly reflect nearly any color, appearing iridescent; and leucocytes that diffusely reflect all visible wavelengths at once, producing bright white.
Iridocytes are protein platelets with a high-refractive-index protein—reflectin—that selectively reflect light via thin-film interference, producing a variety of iridescent colors spanning the visible spectrum.
Leucocytes are also reflectin-based but mostly use microspheres to reflect diffuse white light.
Scientists are fascinated by the dynamic color-filters within living tissue and the functional morphology for both basic and applied science.
Chromatophore are in neuromuscular organs containing five cell types: nerves, glial cells, radial muscles, sheath cells, and the large central chromatocyte in filled a sac containing nanostructured pigmented granules. In a nutshell, they are in the eyes, skin, brain, nervous system and muscles.
Several proteins have been identified within or near the chromatophores including S-crystallin, reflectin, and r-opsin. Crystallins are a diverse set of proteins found in the lens of animal eyes.
Predominant isoforms of crystallin are found in the bioluminescent light. The structural protein reflectin aggregates into nanoparticles or self-assembles into ribbons, contributing to its ability to scatter and reflect light that produces colorful iridescence or create a diffuse whiteness.
Rhodopsin, a light-sensitive protein involved in phototransduction, has also been implicated in skin optical function.
Scientists want to mimic the unique optical features of cephalopod skin that produce intense colorful reflection from chromatophores. At high magnification, this phenomenon showed an iridescent, multiple-hue structural coloration quality even across a single chromatophore. The colors progress sequentially akin to Newton’s series (purple, blue, green, yellow, orange, red.) At times the reflectance appeared as a wrinkled membranous material.
Image: https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/03/190306152406.htm
Arrows indicate narrow zones of iridescence that coincide with yellow chromatocytes (white arrows) and typical iridophores (green arrows).
Iridophore iridescence exhibited minute facets, each reflecting a dominant wavelength. Their hue did not vary with changing illumination.
The optical clarity of living skin permitted close examination of these chromatophores providing strong confidence that the structural coloration effect reported here emanated strictly from the chromatophores. The iridescence expanded and reduced with the changing diameter of the pigment-containing chromatocyte. This could be induced naturally, biochemically, or by electrical stimulation. The iridescence depended on the orientation of the incident light and on the state of expansion of the chromatophore.
Image: https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/03/190306152406.htm
Coloration and specular reflection varies depending on the angle of illumination. Where there is intense specular reflectance for the expanded chromatophores but not for the compacted ones.
These findings are completely different from the electrical and chemical induced changes in iridophore coloration. Many of the iridescing chromatophores exhibited variations in their reflected color centrally versus peripherally.

Chromotophores. These frames were selected because they encompass the visible spectrum, giving unique red, green, and blue.
Bioinformatic analysis led to the identification of 469 putative protein entries translated from the transcriptome [RNA that can be modulated by the epigenome].
The most abundant individual protein was Ω-crystallin. Scientists observed color-linked variations in nearly every category of protein and two major trends emerged from their analysis, the brightest chromatophores, the yellows, had the most reflectins, which have been known to contribute to enhanced reflectivity of surfaces; while the darkest chromatophores, the browns, had more crystallin (Ω- plus S-), the latter of which has been suggested to enhance absorption of light via scattering in other systems. The protein content in the red cells represented a combination of the browns and yellows.
The presence of reflectins and crystallins in the isolated chromatophores confirms that the percentage of reflectin varies among the different color types of chromatophores.
Our proteomic data indicated that the granule-only samples included Ω-crystallin but not reflectin. Reflectin was found consistently localized to the sheath cells in chromatophores.

Anatomical localization of reflectin to sheath cells.
- a Reflectin (green, arrows) was present surrounding the edge of the chromatocyte and portions of the muscles.
- b Reflectin
- c Reflectin coated the muscles and the edge of the chromatocyte, reflectin was also present over its surface.
- d Confocal section of a chromatophore imaged by autofluorescence with the sheath cells highlighted in yellow for better visualization.
This color did not pervade the mitochondria or other metabolic machinery was seen in their electron micrographs of chromatocytes.
Electron microscopy images indicated that these cells may be flattened and highly infolded sheets with variable electron densities and textures critical for future structural imitations.
Scientists modeled the dependence of visible color on the nanolayered elements surrounding the chromatophore structures that contribute to the perceived iridescence.
Dynamic morphology of other components in the chromatophore can generate optical effects.
Scientists believe that Ω-crystallin might function to stabilize xanthommatin (Xa), the predominant pigment and assist in color retention.
The observed intensity in color that was reversible over 12 total acquisition cycles, suggesting a dependency of the pigment’s color intensity to its protonation state.
Researchers observed negligible changes to color intensity as a function of pH in the granules and extracted pigment.
The optical properties of cephalopod skin continue to surprise. Reflectin has long been recognized as an essential component that generates static or neurally tunable iridescence (iridocytes) as well as exceptionally bright broadband white (leucocytes) in skin layers below the chromatophores.
In select species of butterflies, spiders, reptiles, and birds, these elements can be observed within the same tissue but they are generally located in discrete cell layers or assemblages (or, if blended within one tissue as with butterfly scales, they produce a single visual effect).
It is now clear that the closely intertwined pigmentary and structural coloration components at the molecular and cellular level produce dynamic colors that can appear both richly pigmentary or brightly iridescent.
The abundance of Ω-crystallin and its affinity to xanthommatin suggest dual roles for this protein that contribute to the nanostructure of the granule and the stabilization and/or sequestration of xanthommatin which would otherwise be a toxic byproduct of tryptophan metabolism. Both features are likely contributors to pigment color retention, light absorption, and scattering, as the chromatophore experiences a change in presented surface area during actuation.
Chromatophore actuation that expands the pigment cell into a flattened disc might automatically produce a parallel membrane geometry conducive to wavelength-selective interference.
The folds constitute a geometrical compartmentalization for reflectin that when flattened could yield structural color using incident photons and those optically filtered by the absorptive granules in the pigment sac reflecting upwards, consistent with self-assembled films of reflectin exhibiting structural color due to thin-film interference.
How might reflectin influence light from the chromatophore?
Light that enters the expanded chromatophore from the surface will pass through the sheath cells encountering reflectins that interact with pigment before they exit to produce reflection via scattering, effectively doubling its effect. In other cases, light could enter chromatophores from below to also pass through sheath cells on both sides of the pigment sac. In such cases this structural coloration could amplify the brightness of the pigments illustrated below.

- j represents individual granules;
- k represents the a collection of granules within the yellow chromatocyte; and
- l represents an iridophore, deeper in the dermis. For simplicity, only yellow colored chromatophores are illustrated here
Our understanding of the reflectin family is still growing and was thought to be solely pigmentary organs for decades. Now it has been demonstrated that an additional photonic mechanism via structural iridescence is conceivably used to enhance the dynamic range of color presented to provide a specular visual cue contextually detectable by predators or prey. There is still much more to be learned about these complex systems, including a better understanding of molecular mechanisms regulating these dynamic biophotonic processes especially as it pertains to the future designs of engineered materials with dynamic optical capabilities.
Chromatophore skin is known to produce ultra-fast changes in appearance for camouflage and communication. Light-scattering pigment granules within chromatocytes have been presumed to be the sole source of coloration in these complex organs. Scientists report the discovery of structural coloration emanating in precise register with expanded pigmented chromatocytes. These findings offer fresh perspectives on the intricate biophotonic interplay between pigmentary and structural coloration elements tightly co-located within the same dynamic flexible organ - a feature that may help inspire the development of new classes of engineered materials that change color and pattern.
Functions yet to be explored, suggest there is still much more to be learned about these complex systems, including a better understanding of molecular mechanisms regulating these dynamic biophotonic processes especially as it pertains to the future designs of engineered materials with dynamic optical capabilities.
Faith Lesson: In the Name of Jesus I rebuke the powers of darkness that seek to transform my body into something other than what God intended for my life. I wholeheartedly embrace being a human. I choose to walk and live in the radiance of Abba Father, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit exclusively.
Colorful Gems
You may inquire as to what the particular colors mentioned in scriptural passages are and what do they mean to you. Each biblical commentator has a different take on the precise ancient stone. That makes it confusing for modern Berean's to discover the exact nature of the stones. What we do know is that they were of considerable value, rare, and came from various parts of the world. Some were hard and others were soft. These gems were colorful and one can clearly praise Abba Father for the vast diversity of these gem stones.
Sardius-Odem is a deep red-orange of chalcedony, a variety of carnelian. Sardius is the stone used for the signet ring of kings. What is interesting is that it is colorless until exposed to ultraviolet light which changes it to a deep red color due to the iron salts contained within. First gem mentioned in the Garden of Eden and is the color of human flesh. Come from the root for ruddy or reddishness.
The foundation stones of the wall of the city was ornamented with all kinds of precious stones. The first foundations was jasper...the sixth sardius. Revelation 21:19-20
Representing the true dignity and glory as seen in Jesus as the Suffering One.
Topaz-Piteda: Is a hard brilliant yellow crystal with a hint of green. It gets its name from Topazios which means to seek due to the tale of its location on a mysterious island and also the Greek tapas which means fire.. It was said to impart wisdom, beauty, intelligence, long life, friendship. Soft green stone that is easily broken. It is of such value that gold is not even worthy to be its setting or frame.
Diamond-Yahalom: Crystallized carbon which is the hardest substance known. It is symbolic of power and fearlessness.
It can break all other stones or cut all other stones. It comes from the expression a hammers blow. It is derived from strength. It reflects a kind of psalm of praise as a result of its splendor.
Represents make good under pressure, single-mindedness, clarity need for a pure heart, and the polishing needed as we spiritually mature.
Beryl: Is an very clear aquamarine (sea green) hexagonal (six sided) prismatic crystal that is extremely hard. It is symbolic of fearlessness, relaxation, amiable, intellect, victory, with magical properties. Historians have likened it to a thousand leagues of sunlit sea imprisoned in a cup. Due to its prismatic effect it throws vacillating hues of glorious other colors.
This gem could have been a sapphire or amethyst it is mentioned twice in Scripture once in the Garden of Eden and once in reference to King of Tyre.
According to Revelation 21 it is one of the foundations stone of the Holy City.
Onyx-Yashfeh: A cryptocrystalline of different shades. It might have been a jacinth, an agate or amethyst. It is the stone for cameos. It comes from the Greek for fingernail from its semi-transparent light colored bands.
Representing the effulgent glories and brightness of Jesus Christ.
Jasper-Leshem: An opaque, cryptocrstalline quartz colored by its elements ranging from hyacinth to red to green, but most believe Midnight Blue. It is supposed that the biblical gem was jasper, agate, or fire opal and was a dark green stone. The biblical jasper stone is a mystery and could easily be any of a few minerals. It was used as a healing remedy from everything from sorrow, drought, to spider bites.
Revelation 21 speaks of the walls to the Holy City being made of jasper.
Sapphire Saphir: The stone of many colors. A transparent crystal gem usually blue in color but can the most prized are yellow or green with drops of yellow. In the New Testament is called jacinth. In the Old Testament what we know as sapphire may have been unknown and was actually a lapis lazuli. They can be other colors depending upon the oxides within them. It is believed that they have the power to ward off evil and can emanate a six-rayed star called asterism.
Representing the heavenly realm and typifies Christ as the manifestation of God as grace and love.
Emerald-Nofech: A variety of beryl and is a glittering deep rich green or Sky Blue. It is symbolic of spring, earth's guardian of generation, and ripening. It is thought to strengthen memory, eloquence, prevision, tranquility, and warrant honesty.
Represents the flaws and fractures that we have as sinners requiring the healing balm of Jesus to anoint us and forgive us.
Carbuncle-Bareket: A glowing and dancing red sparks of this red stone possibly a ruby or garnet. It is a gem that shines like fire or kindles fire according to Isaiah. It is a torch and in Scripture can mean burning coals. It was likened unto sunlight from the Kavod Glory. It was used by royalty due to its rarity. Its name comes from the Latin carbo meaning coal. The original name meaning pomegranate. Legend says it was hung in Noah's Ark to provide light consequently it meant lighting a fire or to be fiery.
Represents the Blood of Jesus Christ.
I will make your battlements of rubies, Your gates of precious stones. Isaiah 54:12
Gold: is a yellow metal which is the most precious of metals. It had six names indicative of royalty. Carefully preserved, the preserved thing, purified, broken off, dug out, and prefixed characteristics.
Representing the divine glory of the Lord Jesus Christ as the Son of God.
Hyacinth: Leschem is a multi-colored stone that resembles a flame.
Shoham: A pure white colored stone called burla, which may be in the onyx family. Some say a deep black. Mentioned as coming from the land of Havilah and used in the construction of the First Temple. All sources concur that it is a white gem.
Shvo-Agate is identified with barzaline or a type of agate. Black and white mixed. Associated with turkia or barzalin. Not much is known about it. Used to ward off violent thunderstorms and protect one from spiders. Camel travelers would put it in their mouths to ward off thirstiness while traveling across wastelands. Supposedly its red color solidified the blood of demons and warding off evil spirits.
Almacha-Amythest-Blush- is either a green stone or black one with white markings. The Septuagint says it also means without drunkenness. One interpretation is the name El-Halma. The Deceiver was given the name Amethyst in early ages. The glowing purple stone reminded people of fine wine easily imbibed. It is found in the foundation of the New Jerusalem. It was used by the ancients for good dreams.
Tarshish-Beryl or Chrystolite, Or possibly lapis luzi or jasper. Some say diamond. It also could be a crystal or mother-of-pearl as in the Aramaic is comes from a sea-faring country. It was said to be multi-colored and did a shape-shifting of colors.
Faith Lesson: What gemstone reflects who I am in Jesus Christ? As I contemplate the days ahead what gemstone demonstrates the character traits that I would like to have? I praise God for these gemstones and the colors that enrich my life.
Burning Man Garments

The Metamorphosis theme for the 2019 Burning Man is getting heated as high-fashion models strut down the fairway with apparel to burn for. This War of the Garments is intimately related to Catastrophism spanning the cosmic and molecular, the domain of the Planck.
This has been a slow-burn metamorphosis that has been in the works since the fall of man in the Garden of Eden.
As a supplement to this article you may want to read, HODOR, A Time to Dye about the biological warfare back-story to make us biological mutants and then kill us.
Faith Lesson: I will remember the words of Jesus, Therefore do not be anxious, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For the Gentiles seek after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them all. But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. Matthew 6:31-33
God set radiance as the example and even since man and spirit has coveted the Gleam Dream of His standard. It is ironic that while robots are being designed to be more human-like, humans are being lured into being more robotic-like. My prayer is that you can see this snare and with joy embrace being a human and clothe yourself with humility, modesty, live. Adorn yourself with the fruit of the Spirit, staying away from superficial trappings that do not prepare you for eternity.
In my next article in this series, we will explore Enoch and transition into exploring the mysteries behind the veil of the supernatural and cosmos. There is still much to glean as we prepare for eternity as we stare into the vast landscape of catastrophism.
Part 1: Catastrophism God's Judgments Written in the Stars and Heavens: Cosmological RaimentPart 3: Catastrophism God's Judgment: Metamorphosis of Humanity into Prismatic Light Beings
Part 4: Catastrophism God's Judgments: Behind the Veil
This appears as though it will be a 10-part series with several very interesting articles in between.
