"All things by Him [Jesus] & for Him were made." (Colossians 1:16)There are many things in nature which God created that share many uncommon with the three persons of God and were made to testify that the Bible is true and for us to praise Him, as all things in nature should lead us to do. (Psalm 148) These things include the Sun, light, wind, water, & trees, which are all said in the Bible to be symbols of God.Like the Son of God Jesus, the Sun appears to:-descend from heaven to Earth-disappear in a bloody death-be "resurrected"-ascend into heaven-come on the clouds of Heaven-cannot be escaped anywhere on Earth [except in the deep sea for instance, which is a symbol of Rev. 9:11's Abyss of Hell where God cannot be sensed], as is said of God in Psalm 139-gives life, as it says of Jesus "in Him was life & the life was the light of men" (John 1:4)-brings the dead trees back to life, as Jesus says that when He comes all the dead will return to life (John 5:28); humans are compared to trees often in the Bible (ex. "every bad tree will be chopped down and thrown into the fire": Matt. 12)-have existed before man existed, as it says of Jesus "in the beginning was the Word" (John 1:1)-never die, although it will when the Son of God takes its place (Rev. 21-22)-and many more uncommon similaritiesThus, the Sun is a powerful witness to people all over the world that everything said about Jesus in the Bible is true.Biblical Evidence that the Sun is a symbol of the Son of God 1) In Psalm 84:11, it says that “the LORD God is a sun and shield.” This is obviously metaphorical, for the Psalmist is very aware that God is not a body as the Sun is. The word “LORD” is a title for the Son of God as well as for the Father. However, all the following references connect the Sun with the God the Son, not God the Father.2) The Son of God calls himself the “light of the world” (John 8:12), and the Sun is the most prominent light of the world that we can see with our eyes.3) in Malachi 4:2, the last chapter of the Old Testament immediately followed by Jesus' genealogy, it is said "the Sun of Righteousness will rise with healing in his wings"; this is referring to Jesus the Son of God4) Jesus’ face is said to shine “as the noon-day Sun” both during the Transfiguration (Matt. 17:2) and in Rev. 1:16. In the New Jerusalem, there is said to be no need for the Sun because of the light from God and His Son. (Rev. 21:23)5) As the SON of God was “absent” from sight for THREE days after His body died, so was Jesus’s death accompanied by a THREE-hour absence of the SUN (Matt. 27:45); the SUN absent for THREE days to punish the Egyptians for sinning (Exodus 10:22-23); and the SUN’s light invisible to Paul for THREE days after the Son strikes Paul from Heaven with a blinding light. (Acts 9:3-5,9)What is your opinion on this and on how nature manifests God in general?"He who believes in the Son has eternal life; but he that is disobedient to the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him." (John 3:36) "Hell, where the worm [that which feeds on a dead body] dieth not & the fire is not quenched." (Mark 9:48)
Sun proves: Jesus rose from the dead, will resurrect the dead,…

“The heavens declare the glory of GOD…In them he has set a TABERNACLE for the SUN, which is as a BRIDEGROOM coming out of his chamber, and rejoices as a STRONG MAN to run a race. His going forth is from the end of the heaven, and his circuit unto the ends of it: and THERE IS NOTHING HID FROM THE HEAT THEREOF.” (Psalm 19:1,4-6)“The heavens declare the glory of God” in part because the Sun is a symbol of God the Son. God the Son “TABERNACLED among us” (John 1:14), and the tabernacle is a type of Him. The Messiah is called a BRIDEGROOM in Isaiah 61:1-2,8,10 & 62:5; and Jesus compares Himself to a BRIDEGROOM in several of his parables, including the parable of the ten virgins and the parable of the wedding feast. (Matt. 22:2, Matt. 25:1) The Messiah-King, Jesus, is called a “STRONG MAN”/”HERO” (same Hebrew word as in Psalm 19) in Psalm 45:3. The last sentence of the quotation is a reference to the fact that Jesus can see all over the world. For instance, He “saw” Nathanael was sitting under a fig tree although Nathanael was not within the range of His eyesight. This seeing of course provokes Nathanael to say: “Rabbi, you are the Son of God, you are the King of Israel!” (John 1:48-49) This passage is clearly inspired by God, for what human mind would think on his own to compare the Sun to a bridegroom and a hero?!
I think you are funny with the scenarios you come up with!I see GOD in everything. He is the creator of all! Even our souls as in Ezek 18:4 when GOD says all souls belong to him.Now, if you would stay focused in GOD's word, you would know that GOD hates idolators and he uses adultery as a way to explain that to readers of the Bible. For example, In Mark 13 Jesus says "WOE to those who give suck...." What he means is that Jesus has been gone for over 2000 years and when he returns, you are with child nursing him along, that means you cheated on the man you are to Marry(JesusChrist- The bridegroom) and you had a child with the one you cheated with (you fell for the Anti-Christ ie., Satan, believing he was Jesus Christ) and you were nursing along his- Satan's Church. We(THe Many Membered Body of Christ) are to wait to wed our bridegroom,the True Christ who returns at the 7th Trump and not be deceived by the Fake Christ(THe Anti-Christ-Satan) who comes at the 6th trump. HIs number is 666(Rev 13:18) = 6th trumpet, 6th seal and 6th vial. The true Christ, Our bridegroom comes at the 7th trumpet 7th seal...IN 2 Cor 11:2-4 Paul speaking says in verse 2: "For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ. 3: But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled(=expatio in Greek which means Wholly seduced) Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. 4: For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him. " Paul is warning you not to be decieved but to be a spiritual virgin and wait for the ONE TRUE CHRIST, our HUSBAND!Next
lease read Matt 25: 1-12 about the 10 virgins waiting for their bridegroom. 5 have oil for their lamps( they understand GOD's word) and are prepared and 5 do not and have to go to town to buy oil. The virgins with oil have the truth of GOD's word and are ready to wait for the Bridegroom( Jesus Christ). The ones who had to go to town to buy oil, had to take the mark of the beast( Rev 13), which means they followed the Anti-Christ, in order to purchase that oil. While the 5 virgins without oil were gone, the Bridegroom came and invited the virgins, that had the truth and were prepared into the Wedding. The other ones realized too late they were following the wrong Christ and knocked on the door to be let in to the wedding, but they were not let in and not welcome. This also means that there will be a time when it is too late to learn GOD's word- the oil, that keeps the light shining!We are in the generation of the fig tree NOW so we all had better stick to GOD's word, chapter by Chapter and verse by verse and learn GOD's word with understanding, so we make it to the wedding and don't have to go buy oil in town, (be deceived) and miss the great WEDDING!These little word studies just get people off track from concentrating on GOD's word- chapter by chapter. When you take a verse out of context as many one verse charlie's(so called fake pastors) do,the original meaning is lost, because you lose the subject and object of the chapter, what the sentence is really referring to. These fake pastors are not teaching souls of our brothers and sisters the real meat of GOD's word but leading them astray!
