Zeitgeist: The Spirit of Antichrist
A few years ago some Christian friends of mine started sending me links to the "Zeitgeist" movie,and after viewing the movie I was surprised, because even though the second half of thedocumentary seemed to be a fairly good expose of the schemings of the New world Order, thefirst part of it was a blast against Christianity, portraying it not only as part of the problem, butperhaps the gist of the problem itself.Well, as it turns out, Zeitgeist was more than a movie, but has become amovement, and thisvideo is intended to expose that it is an
antichrist 
movement, as in fact, the essential doctrinebehind Zeitgeist is that Jesus Christ was nothing but a myth which is being used to manipulatedthe masses, and that He never really existed, which the apostle John describes as the very spiritof antichrist in his first epistle:“Every spirit that does not confess that
[a
 
]
Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God. Andthis is the
spirit 
of the Antichrist, which you have heard was coming, and is now already in theworld.” (1John 4:3)The makers of the Zeitgeist movie claim that Jesus must have obviously been a myth, because of the many similarities between Jesus and pagan deities that were worshiped before His time.While other films have attempted to refute Zeitgeist on the grounds that these claims wereinaccurate, there is, however a legitimate reason for the similarities between Jesus and ancientdeities, which most Christians are ignorant of because of their fear of astrology.Most of the ancient Egyptian, Assyrian and Babylonian religions and mythologies, which werelater partly adopted by the Greeks and Romans were based on astrology, namely the story that isforetold in the stars, as the Psalmist David wrote nearly 3000 years ago:“The heavens declare the glory of God;And the firmament shows His handiwork.Day unto day utters speech,
 
And night unto night reveals knowledge. 
There is
no speech nor language 
Where
their voice is not heard.Their line has gone out through all the earth,And their words to the end of the world.” (Ps.19:1-4)While it is true that the Old Testament condemns astrology in the sense of using it for divinationand soothsaying, the Bible also makes clear that it was God, not the Devil, Who created the starsfor signs, and even mentions some of the constellations in the book of Job, as work of God,including the Zodiac, also termed Mazzaroth, as "the path" that the sun takes through thesevarious constellations, and the story that this journey tells reveals just what King David of oldmeant by "The Heavens Declare the Glory of God."According to Christian authors like William D. Banks, who were not too scared and superstitiousto give the Devil credit for another one of God’s creations, the coming of the Messiah wasannounced and promised in the stars, as we can read from the story it tells in its signs:The star sign Virgo represents the virgin birth which was going to bring forth the Son of God intothe world.Libra, the scales, represent the price which Christ was to pay for mankind on the cross, asevident by the names of the two brightest stars in the constellation, which literally mean, “Theprice which is deficient” and “the price which covers (or is sufficient)”.Scorpio (the scorpion) depicts the antagonist of the story, and the enemy of Christ, also known asSatan, which is confirmed by the following sign of Sagittarius, the Archer, pointing his arrow atScorpio’s tail.It is interesting to note that the book of Revelation depicts Christ as a horseman upon His secondcoming, and in one of its descriptions, he is given a bow (Rev.6:2) in accordance with a prophecyin the ancient book of Deuteronomy in which the Lord is quoted as saying, “I will make My arrowsdrunk with blood…of the leaders of the enemy” (Deut.32:42).Capricorn, the Goat, seems to make further references to the sacrifice that the Christ, thescapegoat for our sins was to pay. The second brightest star in this constellation means,
TheLord, Judge
or 
Sacrifice Cometh
.Certainly Aquarius can quite obviously be recognized in the pouring out of the living waters, thewords of life, of which Jesus was the living embodiment, and as He promised, “He that believes inMe, from his belly shall flow rivers of living water” (John 7:38).Most people know that the secret symbol by which the first Christians identified themselves was afish, and that some of Jesus’ key disciples had been fishermen, before He called them to become“fishers of men,” lending greater significance to the star sign of Pisces (fishes).The ancient name of Aries is
Taleh
, meaning
the Lamb sent forth
, giving further weight to thewords of the book of Revelation which call Jesus “the Lamb slain from the foundation of theworld” (Rev.13:8)Taurus, the bull is a symbol of the show of strength the Messiah will display upon His return and judgment, as derived from the Coptic names of the sign, meaning,
“the One Who saves mightily” 
and
The Chief Who Comes.” 
The symbol for Taurus is explained by hieroglyphic authorities toresemble a single boat on the surface of the earth, reminding of Noah’s arc, and thus resemblinga symbol of judgment.William Banks explains the original symbolism of the Gemini twins as a picture of Christ the
