Hi John and Doves,
It astounds me just how little attention this forthcoming Nova blast is getting from the Christian community. Although they tell us that this occurs once every 80 years, it is still a once in a lifetime event. I am inclined to believe that this Nova explosion will herald the return of our Messiah Jesus. Much like the Star of Bethlehem did. With the current world situation - the war in Israel - the screwed up political machinations going on everywhere etc., etc., this Nova explosion is at least as big (if not bigger) than the solar eclipse in April 2024. I mean - it's going to create a brand new star, people. Possibly visible for over a week. As bright as the North Star - Polaris. Visible to the naked eye!!! Although I could, of course, be wrong - I will be hyper alert when this Nova explosion does happen. I have prayed about this and will continue to do so.
Just like the true star of Bethlehem heralded the birth of our precious Messiah Jesus, this Nova explosion may herald His 2nd coming. There is nothing new under the sun. What has been before, will be again. Nobody can say, "Look! This is something new? It was here already - long ago. Long before our time ". Ecclesiastes 1: 9-10. See 2nd link.
