THE SIGN OF THE RAM

It is fitting that of all beasts a Ram should be placed at the head of the Heavenly flock forming the Zodiacal band centuries before the Christian era, the pagans revealed this constellation. Godfrey Higgins states; "This constellation was called the "LAMB OF GOD' He was also called the SAVIOR and was said to save mankind from their sins, He was always honored with the appellation of Dominus or Lord, He was called the Lamb of God which taketh away the sins of the world; The devotees addressing him in their litany, constantly repeated the words, 'O Lamb of God, that taketh away the sin of the world, have mercy upon us, grant us thy peace," Before Christianity was conceived as a religion by The Roman emperor, ancient man had the gospel preached to him from the heavens long before the axial age when empires and the major religions of the world like Zoroastrianism and Buddhism arose, this gospel was already established, no wonder then that the scripture speaks of Christ as the one who was slain before the foundation of the world, when the universe came into formation, the handprint of its Creator was left there for all to see, and ancient cultures from the four corners of the world could read and comprehend its meaning, no wonder then that our ancestors were always fascinated by the stars and other heavenly bodies and even modern man with his sophisticated technology has not quite figured out what lies beyond the observable universe, surely there is a lot to learn for the inquisitive mind. The first paragraph speaks of the Ram as the Head of the heavenly flock forming the Zodiacal band and while many today use the twelve signs of the Zodiac as a path for future predictions, they are unaware of the message of the ultimate message that the Zodiac proclaims, The Lamb of God' This is the subject at the head of the Zodiac, the RAM, In the Jewish old testament, a ram without blemish was required for blood sacrifice to cleanse the people of their sins, the ram sacrifice was a foreshadow of Christ who was slain and thus fulfilling the old Judaic covenant. Now it has to be said that Christianity does not have a monopoly on the Christ story, since ancient cultures from Kemet Egypt to Hinduistic India had very similar "savior" faiths or beliefs, the Egyptians for instance believed in the 'SUNGOD' whom they called "RA" He was believed to take the form of a Ram when he would set in the evening before travelling through the underworld and rising again in the morning, very similar to the Christian story of Christ dying for our sins then descending to hell and resurrecting from it, the ancient Hindus in India also had a similar belief in the story of Krishna, Krishna being the Hindi word for Christ, Krishna as believed by his adherents, was born of a virgin, crucified and resurrected just like the Jewish Christ was e.t.c. In the Christian bible in Acts 17:28, Paul the apostle of Christ was contending with the Athenians about their union with the one true God "for in Him we move and have our being" affirming the universality of Christ and His God, the WORD and His God, The LAMB and the ANCIENT OF DAYS.
