The thread is good for whatever thoughts - serious or not so serious - that you may wish to post; however, most folks like to keep it rather "laid-back" and "easy-going"...

I was completely SERIOUS!
THANK YOU @GaryA Gary for recognizing that FACT.
Furthermore streams of consciousness and though was I assumed a serious thread.
Sorry if I was mistaken by the title and ruined anyone's fun!

Astrology,the art of studying the relative positions of the sun,moon,planets,and constellations to explain and predict events on earth. It is NOT science
The zodiac is a ring of constellations that lie along the ecliptic,where we get our birth signs by month.Psychics and fortune tellers use signs one is born under to predict PERSONAL events in a persons life.Astrology has no scientific VALIDITY!

LUKE21:25 There will be signs in the sun,moon,and stars,Jesus said.

Astronomy,the study of everything in the UNIVERSE BEYOND EARTH'S ATMOSPHERE,like sun,moon,planets,and stars. It is a SCIENCE that studies everything outside of the earth atmosphere and the properties and relationships of those celestial bodies.


Got it Gary,thank you. Astronomy is a true science,while astrology is the belief that certain position in our atmosphere can affect the way events occur on earth.

So when all the kings and their prophets served false gods they were using astrology to predict oh this means that and that means this of things in the sky.......lol
In Matthew was Jesus rebuking them for astrology?

Unwatching this thread.
Gary was right. And he was right to mention it. I should have mentioned it myself... but I just had to wait and see if any of the "I'm more Christian than you" people would jump on it. :whistle:

But I'm so much more Christian than all of you that I'm on a spiritual plane where even worrying about your mundane mortal errors is beneath my exalted state.

Sorry couldn't resist, or at least I thought the humor value was worth not resisting.

We don't do dog piles. Too stinky. We do stone piles, like Moses said to do.

Nothing personal ma'am. I'm an equal opportunity stoner.

Wait, that sounded even MORE wrong somehow... :unsure:

Gen.1:14
AND God said,Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from night; and let THEM BE FOR SIGNS,AND FOR SEASONS,AND FOR DAYS,AND YEARS:

Where is the admonition in scripture that forbids a study of astrology? Horoscopes is a part of witchcraft and I get that!

Mt.16:2-4. He answered and said unto them,When it is evening,ye say,It will be fair weather: for the sky is red.
And in the morning,It will be foul weather today: for the sky is red and lowering. O ye hypocrites,ye can DISCERN THE FACE OF THE SKY; but can ye not discern the signs of the times?
V4............................................
In this I understand Jesus was rebuking them with the admonition of their superior knowledge of astrology but total failure to recognize the sign of the times.
Jesus birth,ministry,death,burial,and resurrection that was to come. They failed to put all together and recognize their Messiah!
Isaiah 47
12 Stand now with thine enchantments, and with the multitude of thy sorceries, wherein thou hast laboured from thy youth; if so be thou shalt be able to profit, if so be thou mayest prevail.

13 Thou art wearied in the multitude of thy counsels. Let now the astrologers, the stargazers, the monthly prognosticators, stand up, and save thee from these things that shall come upon thee.

14 Behold, they shall be as stubble; the fire shall burn them; they shall not deliver themselves from the power of the flame: there shall not be a coal to warm at, nor fire to sit before it.


15 Thus shall they be unto thee with whom thou hast laboured, even thy merchants, from thy youth: they shall wander every one to his quarter; none shall save thee.
