I have it on good authority that things like our sun are lit and sustain themselves by energy that is streamed through the universe from a central location or source. This writing seems to back that up:

I endorse all three points of the article.
I would be interested to know what you mean by having it on good authority. Are you meaning it has been revealed to you, or that you have heard it from someone else who is in a position to know. More details please.
ReplyDeleteI have looked into this subject quite a bit and I have felt compelled to share this with you.
ReplyDeleteThere are two Semitic roots that approximate to Kolob. KLB which means dog, and QLB which means heart.
The star that the Egyptians worshipped the most was Sirius. They rotated their solar calendar to the first day that Sirius was visible in the east before sunrise. They did that because less than a month after that the Nile would flood. It was known as the Dog Star, and Sirius was the beating heart of the Dog Star.
Qalb al-Kalab would be the literal pronunciation of this star in Arabic.
We read in the Book of Abraham that Abraham taught astronomy to the Egyptians. That Kolob was the governing star, the brightest one, where God governed.
The Egyptians (and subesequent peoples--Hittites, Romans, Greeks, Persians, Arabs) all worshipped the star. It was and remains the brightest star in our night sky.
Kolob is NOT Sirius, but Abraham would have used Sirius as an example for the Egyptians.
This could be simulated via the Universal Sandbox Steam app on the computer. I will have to show you that later on.
I am not so sure our Father in Heaven's place of dwelling is in the Center of our Galaxy. Spencer said, After the Millennium our earth was moved past our Milky Way Galaxy before it was changed to a Celestial Globe.
