Gospel in the Stars and Witness of the Stars
Both the Gospel in the Stars and the Witness of the Stars explain how you can find the gospel message in the constellations. For example, Leo represents
Jesus (Lion of Judah) and the serpent constellation is "under his feet".
By Joseph Seiss
"Do the heavens that reveal God's glory also reveal His plan of salvation? Yes, says Joseph A. Seiss, who contemplated the strange figures of the Zodiac
and studied the writings of astronomers through the ages. Drawing upon scientific, historical and biblical sources, Seiss assembles persuasive
arguments supporting his thesis that the Gospel of Jesus Christ can be seen in the stars
in The Gospel in the Stars. Illustrated." |

By E. Bullinger
"Redesigned for contemporary readers. The Psalmist says, "The heavens declare the glory of God and the firmament showeth His handiwork." Building upon ancient
astronomical sources and modern scientific data, E. W. Bullinger shows how the constellations witness to the accuracy of biblical prophetic truths
in Witness of the Stars. Numerous
celestial charts and diagrams are provided to lend vivid support to his conclusions. Includes numerous illustrations of the stars. Combines scientific
and historical data to support the Scriptures." |
