The Dark Side of the Mandorla

There is a sign within Christianity that most of us know nothing about. The Mandorla, also referred to as vesica piscis, was used during medieval Christianity. It is an ancient symbol of two circles coming together and overlapping one another to form an almond shape in the middle. The meaning of the Mandorla depicts the interactions and interdependence of opposing worlds and forces. The symbol has its origins from the Kabbalah, before the Christian era. The early Catholics used the symbol as a way to describe the coming together of heaven and earth, between the divine and human.[1]


Mandorla is the Italian word for almond. During medieval times, the almond was used as a symbol for the woman's vulva. In time, early Catholicism incorporated the Mandorla into many paintings and artwork of the time.

As you may recall from earlier studies, the Vatican has a fascination with pagan symbolism that relates to the reproductive organs. As you can see, the obelisk (Baal's shaft) is within the vagina at St. Peters Basilica in Rome.




The following pictures demonstrate how Catholicism has used the Mandorla within its artwork.







The Mandorla is known both in the East and West. It has been used in false religions and in the secret societies. The Mandorla offers opposites, just as esoteric and exoteric symbols offer opposite or unrelated meanings.





The Black Stone of Mecca - Kaaba Stone

The Black Stone is a Muslim object of reverence, which according to Islamic tradition, dates back to the time of Adam and Eve. Many consider it to be a Tektite. It is the eastern cornerstone of the Kaaba, the ancient sacred stone building towards which Muslims pray, in the center of the Grand Mosque in Mecca, Saudi Arabia.  


When pilgrims circle the Kaaba as part of the Tawaf ritual of the Hajj, many of them try, if possible, to stop and kiss the Black Stone, emulating the kiss that it received from the Islamic prophet Muhammad. Researchers have noted that the Kaabah is accurately aligned on two heavenly phenomena - the cycles of the moon and the rising of Canopus, the brightest star after Sirius.[2]

Pastor Mike Hoggard shares his findings in the Scriptures that relate to the Mandorla and the Kaaba.


There are ways the Mandorla is being used in today's business logos and it has been used in movies, like Harry Potter.




Now that we are informed, let's watch to see how this symbol is used by the world in the coming days. Pastor Hoggard feels it may have implications of the coming Imam Mahdi.

The Clenched Fist: A Sign of Rebellion


The raised fist (also known as the clenched fist) is a salute most often used by left-wing activists, such as: Marxists, anarchists, socialists, communists, pacifists, feminists, trade unionists, and black nationalists. The raised fist is usually regarded as an expression of solidarity, strength, or defiance. It dates back to the salute of Rotfrontkämpferbund, a red front paramilitary organization of the Communist Party of Germany before WWII. [1]

The clenched fist is symbolic of a rebellious spirit and anger toward God.

We know that Socialism, a system that steals freedom, robs individuals of self-initiative, steals from the people, has longed to dismantle Capitalism and the industrialized West. Their symbols have been here for years, but many of us don't realize what they are when we see them. The photographs that follow will speak for themselves.

A symbol used by Freemasons.

Benito Mussolini

Adolph Hitler

Used by Civil Rights movement of the 60s for racial segregation.

Martin Luther King, a known Communist.

Jesse Jackson in the early days.

Hugo Chavez

Nelson Mandela accompanied by his wife, Winnie Mandela

Russian President Boris Yeltsin displays the fist of Soviet Communism.

President Bill Clinton

Laura Bush

President Obama

Michelle Obama

Muammar el-Qaddafi

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad

Revolutionary props seen in Egypt and Serbian unrest

It would be safe to say that this symbol is being used by the globalist movement and will be seen more in the future. The type of Communism that we will eventually see is International Communism. The type of government where Christianity will not be welcome.

The Gates Foundation & Rotary International


(YouTube link)

The World Economic Forum, also known as Davos 2011, has finished the third day of their yearly conference. A special message from the Prime Minister Cameron of the United Kingdom and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation on ridding polio completely from the world. One of their key supporters is Rotary International. Rotary is recognized by the United Nations as the key private partner in the eradication effort.


The symbol of the six-spoked wheel is a Buddhist symbol meaning cosmic unity. It also symbolizes the sun, the zodiac, reincarnation, and earth's cycles of renewal. Pagans use it in astrology, magic and many kinds of rituals.[1] The Rotary Club, like the Freemasons, are divided into two classes. There is an outside front organization that the average citizen can join to do good works, then there is an evil leadership with an agenda. Their polio project is called Polio Plus, and their first goal is to eradicate polio in Africa. I don't know how much truth is in this, but their goal is to destroy humanity by 2029.

Is the Star of David a Godly Symbol?

As Christians we believe by faith in Jesus Christ. We do NOT need symbols, signs or trinkets to remind us who Jesus Christ is, because we have the Holy Spirit abiding IN US. The Star of David is part of the Jewish faith – a Christian should NOT be entertaining symbols from other faiths.
 
But to make matters even worse; the Star of David is not even a God given symbol to the Jews. The Israelites chose this star symbol while worshipping ANOTHER god.

Amos 5:26-27 (Amplified Bible)

26 [No] but [instead of bringing Me the appointed sacrifices] you carried about the tent of your king Sakkuth and Kaiwan [names for the gods of the planet Saturn], your images of your star-god which you made for yourselves [and you will do so again]. 
27 Therefore I will cause you to go into exile beyond Damascus, says the Lord, whose name is the God of hosts.

Acts 7:37-43 (Amplified Bible) 
37It was this [very] Moses who said to the children of Israel, God will raise up for you a Prophet from among your brethren as He raised me up. 
38This is he who in the assembly in the wilderness (desert) was the go-between for the Angel who spoke to him on Mount Sinai and our forefathers, and he received living oracles (words that still live) to be handed down to us. 
39[And yet] our forefathers determined not to be subject to him [refusing to listen to or obey him]; but thrusting him aside they rejected him, and in their hearts yearned for and turned back to Egypt. 
40And they said to Aaron, Make us gods who shall [be our leaders and] go before us; as for this Moses who led us forth from the land of Egypt–we have no knowledge of what has happened to him. 
41And they [even] made a calf in those days, and offered sacrifice to the idol and made merry and exulted in the work of their [own] hands
42But God turned [away from them] and delivered them up to worship and serve the host (stars) of heaven, as it is written in the book of the prophets: Did you [really] offer to Me slain beasts and sacrifices for forty years in the wilderness (desert), O house of Israel? 
43[No!] You took up the tent (the portable temple) of Moloch and carried it [with you], and the star of the god Remphan, the images which you [yourselves] made that you might worship them; and I will remove you [carrying you away into exile] beyond Babylon

Buddhism: 

HexagrOM symbol:- 

“OM Mani Padme Hum” is the oldest and most important mantra of Tibetan Buddhism, usually translated from Sanskrit as “OM, jewel in the lotus, hum”. The “jewel in the lotus” may be considered as enlightenment arising in the lotus of human consciousness. This is the holiest of Tibetan mantras, associated with the bodhisattva (“enlightened being”) Avalokiteshvara, and is an expression of compassion as well as a longing for liberation and enlightenment.

Each Tibetan character represents one syllable in the mantra, and these six syllables are linked to the six modes of existence in the bhava-chakra (“Wheel of Life”). The Wheel of Life is divided into six segments: the upper half of the Wheel contains the higher realms of gods, antigods (jealous gods) and human beings. The lower half of the Wheel contains the lower realms of animals, hungry ghosts and hell beings. Each being is born into one of these realms of existence according to its karma, and books like the Tibetan Book of the Dead detail ways to ensure rebirth in the higher realms and avoid the lower ones. The syllables of the mantra of Avalokiteshvara are assigned to the realms so that each of the types of beings may be taught the way to liberation from the cycle of existence.  — www.dharmamemphis.com/images/hexom.gif

Pine Cones, Paganism, the Pineal Gland & Fluoride

Pine cones have always been occultly associated with spiritual enlightenment. Whether we look at ancient Babylonians, Egyptians, Greeks or Christians, the pine cone has represented the mysterious link between the physical and the spiritual worlds, which can be found in the human brain. The pineal gland, also known as the third eye, is represented by the pine cone in occult symbolism. It is taught by Mystery schools to open the doors to spiritual perception once the seven Chakras are properly activated.[1]

Pictured below, the Pine Cone Staff of Osiris is surrounded by the two serpents of the Kundalini, which represent the spine, and the pine cone represents the pineal gland. This tiny gland is located at the center of our brain and is involved in the production of a variety of important neurotransmitters, and facilitates altered states of awareness, as you will learn.[1]
Pagans revere the Evergreen because it symbolizes eternal life. They have always coveted eternal life, and have sought it by worshiping and revering many objects they find in Nature. Of course, this type of worship is the Biblical definition of what a Pagan is. 
"Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshiped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen." Romans 1:25 KJV
The pine cone, the fruit of evergreen, has been used in Pagan symbolism and in Roman Catholicism.

Pagan groups have used the pine cone in their ceremonies, their rituals, and their art. The Roman Catholic Church uses the symbolism of the pine cone, just as any good Pagan religion would do. This fact is firm evidence that Roman Catholicism is Pagan, not Christian. In fact, we would say that Roman Catholicism is counterfeit Christianity, with Paganism at its heart.

In Paganism, the pine cone, as previously stated, is used as a symbol of the solar god Osiris, but also as a symbol of regeneration and fertility.[2

The pine cone has also shown up in Crop Circles,

and in Nazi Germany.


Manly P. Hall, a well-known Masonic historian, explains the importance of the pine cone in Freemasonry and ancient civilizations:

"Sufficient similarity exists between the Masonic CHiram and the Kundalini of Hindu mysticism to warrant the assumption that CHiram may be considered a symbol also of the Spirit Fire moving through the sixth ventricle of the spinal column. The exact science of human regeneration is the Lost Key of Masonry, for when the Spirit Fire is lifted up through the thirty-three degrees, or segments of the spinal column, and enters into the domed chamber of the human skull, it finally passes into the pituitary body (Isis), where it invokes Ra (the pineal gland) and demands the Sacred Name. Operative Masonry, in the fullest meaning of that term, signifies the process by which the Eye of Horus is opened. E. A. Wallis Budge has noted that in some of the papyri illustrating the entrance of the souls of the dead into the judgment hall of Osiris the deceased person has a pine cone attached to the crown of his head. The Greek mystics also carried a symbolic staff, the upper end being in the form of a pine cone, which was called the thyrsus of Bacchus. In the human brain there is a tiny gland called the pineal body, which is the sacred eye of the ancients, and corresponds to the third eye of the Cyclops. Little is known concerning the function of the pineal body, which Descartes suggested (more wisely than he knew) might be the abode of the spirit of man. As its name signifies, the pineal gland is the sacred pine cone in man – the eye single, which cannot be opened until CHiram (the Spirit Fire) is raised through the sacred seals which are called the Seven Churches in Asia.”
                                         ~Manly P. Hall, Secret Teachings of All Ages

Why is the occult interested in the pineal gland?
The third eye, via the pineal gland, controls the attributes and functions of the 6th chakra (Ajna in Sanskrit) which include: clairaudience, clairsentience, clairvoyance, telepathy, ESP (extra sensory perception), intuition, and what the New Age calls the Christ consciousness (or Cosmic consciousness).The third eye, via the pineal gland, also controls the attributes and functions of the 7th chakra (called Sahasrara in Sanskrit) which include: linkage with the Higher Self, astral projection and astral travel, and ascension to the Akashic Records.[3]

How do you manipulate the pineal gland?
The awakened pineal gland can give you a sense of well-being, and altered state of consciousness. There are different methods for doing this, but the most common today is achieved through meditation, labyrinth walking, accompanied by by the tongue touching the roof of the mouth. This stimulates the crown chakra. When the tongue goes way back so the tip touches the soft palate, it stimulates the pineal gland.   

In the Taoist tradition, the tongue connection is used to complete the Microcosmic orbit of energy [chi]. In the Tantra practice it is used primarily to quiet the mind; when you feel the Kundalini energy moving up and down the spine you have a sense of control. [4]

Pineal Gland and the Bible
The Bible has a Christian interpretation, and a gnostic or occult interpretation. This is why you have regular Judaism, and its mystical component or aspect called Kabbalah. This is the same with Christianity and Islam. Christianity has regular Christianity and its mystical component called Gnostic Christianity.

Since there are unbiblical practices in the Bible, the Gnostics have read it from their point of view and see nothing wrong with how they receive it. This is exactly what occurs when interpreting the verses that pertain to the pineal gland. The gland is mentioned in the Bible, but can be associated with hidden knowledge. Such as in Ecclesiastes 12:6-7: "Or ever the silver cord be loosed, or the golden bowl be broken, or the pitcher be broken at the fountain, or the wheel broken at the cistern; Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it."


The silver cord in this verse refers to the connection between the physical body, astral body, the Higher Self, and the near-death experience. As you may recall, Solomon, the author of Ecclesiastes, fell into the evil pagan practices. Solomon had many pagan wives, thus broking God's commandments to not marry pagan wives. He also built pagan temples in Israel, and all Israel was judged for their apostasy, leading to the civil war that split Israel into two nations. It is clear that God was not pleased with the way Solomon spent his time.

Then in Genesis 32:30, the Scripture reads, "And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: for I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved." Some people feel that Jacob knew about the pineal gland and was accustomed to using it. It was an ancient mystical tool used back then, however it was later stopped due to the lying spirits that could be met in that dimension. Basically, God has laid ground rules for Christians not to receive information by way of supernatural sources, and it is therefore considered as a Pagan practice.

The Pineal Gland and Fluoride
I would like to connect the last dot with the affects of today's fluoride use on the pineal gland. Dr. Jennifer Luke from the University of Surrey in England discovered that the pineal gland is the primary target of fluoride accumulation within the body. In fact, the aged pineal contains more fluoride than any other normal soft tissue. [5] Although this is a fairly recent finding, the occult world knew it all along - since they have their ways. Could it be that years of fluoride use building up in the pineal gland, can lead to generations of spiritually blind, apathetic unbelievers?  Perhaps there is a link between the two.
