Secrets from Beyond The Grave

Lucifer said he would ascend into heaven "above the stars of God." He then believed he would "sit on the mount of the congregation on the farthest sides of the north." The mount of the congregation is the holy mount where the heavenly temple is. This mountain is called "Mount Sion" in Hebrews 12:22 (KJV) and Revelation 14:1 (KJV). Hebrews 12:22 says there is "an innumerable company of angels" on this mountain. The word congregation in Isaiah 14:13 is the Hebrew word mowed , the same word used to identify the appointed times when Israel came together for the feast and, specifically, when the men ascended to Jerusalem to worship the Lord during the three feasts. The common word for " congregation" in the Hebrew Scriptures is qahal , which means "an assembly or a multitude." Lucifer knew this mountain was the mountain for special assemblies designed to worship and exalt God. Lucifer was attempting to make his move against God "on the farthest sides of the north." The word side in Hebrew is yerekah and figuratively alludes to the rear or the recess. Today we would say, "He was attempting to sneak in the back door!"

The north is also identified by the prophet Ezekiel, where the prophet saw "a whirlwind was coming out of the north, a great cloud with raging fire engulfing itself" (Ezek. 1:4). Out of this heavenly whirlwind came the throne of God, being transported upon the shoulder of four angelic creatures called cherubim (Ezek. 1:1-28). The psalmist must have recognized the significance of the north when he wrote: For exaltation comes neither from the east

Nor from the west nor from the south.

But God is the Judge.

--Psalm 75:6-7

By the omission of the north, one could deduct that the Judge, the Lord, sits in the northern part of the heavens assigning His promotions. The Empty Space--the North Star

There are two unique features about the north from a scientific view. The Book of Job tells us: Sheol is naked before Him,

And Destruction has no covering.

He stretches out the north over empty space;

He hangs the earth on nothing.

--Job 26:6-7

The writer states there is an "empty space" in the north. From our visibility on Earth, it appears that every inch of the heavens contains stars. While this is true, there is an empty place,
