The light tunnel on the front cover (bottom picture) tells the story of Christ’s Second Coming. Scripture says “the sun will be darkened and the moon will not give its light” which is what creates the light tunnel. On the light tunnel and directly down the center, are three constellations and four planets. The seven objects on the light tunnel represent completeness in biblical numerology. At the top is the Constellation of Leo, the Lion, which represents Christ as the Lion of Judah, which is symbolic of God’s Judgment. It is used in scripture to signify Christ’s Second Coming. For, Christ is seen as the Lamb in the opening of the seven seals which is mentioned in Revelation 5:4-14. In the middle of the light tunnel is the Constellation of Virgo that represents Christ born of a virgin and His First Coming to the earth. This is to show to mankind that it is Christ, the Son of God, who is returning. Down near the earth is the Constellation of Libra that represents the Scales of Justice. It is time for judgment of this world through war. Up at the top is the planet Mars which eclipses the sun and moon. Mars represents bloody war. It is the Battle of Megiddo that is described in Revelation 9:16-20 and 16:16. Below it is the planet of Jupiter, the king planet, that is the Messianic star. Uranus is next that represents the Lord of the Heavens and symbolizes the Deity of Christ. Just above the earth is the planet of Saturn which is harvest time of the earth and it begins in August. Read Revelation 14:14-20 about the Angelic Reapers. Is the light tunnel significant to Christ’s Return? Light symbolizes truth. The alignment of constellations and planets over the light tunnel is unique in time and space. The three constellations represent divine order given to this world, which is represented by four planets in biblical numerology. It is Christ’s Return to this world that will ultimately bring order and peace.
