Martin Luther said:Acts 7:42-43
42Then God turned, and gave them up to worship the host of heaven; as it is written in the book of the prophets, O ye house of Israel, have ye offered to me slain beasts and sacrifices by the space of forty years in the wilderness?
43Yea, ye took up the tabernacle of Moloch, and the star of your god Remphan, figures which ye made to worship them: and I will carry you away beyond Babylon.
There is much more on this subject. Moloch is alive and well, it seems many ignorant Christians like to display his image. There is nothing godly about the six pointed star.
Wonder what this would be?Martin Luther said:
How about this one??
Or any one of several others?

Could this also be considered a "cult symbol" of a different kind of cult? It is directly copied from a "linked" site at the above "linked" location.How about this one??Or any one of several others?
I never have thought I would ever be saying this, but I suggest that Mr. Texe Marrs and Mr. David J. Stewart have to be two of the only individuals I've ever seen, that could make Pastor Steven Anderson also lovingly known as "spamderson" on the BB and Dr. Peter J. Ruckman almost look like Dale Carnegie and Fred Rogers, by comparison.

http://judaism.about.com/od/prayersworshiprituals/f/stardavid.htmThe Magen David (literally "Shield of David") has six-points, which symbolize that God rules over the universe and protects us from all six directions: North, South, East, West, Up and Down. A similar symbolism is found in reading the "Shema." ("Code of Jewish Law" O.C. 61:6)
Thus, King David used this six-pointed symbol to signify that the Almighty shields him in war. (Rabbi Moshe Feinstein - "Igrot Moshe" O.C. 3:15)
A more practical theory is that during the Bar Kochba rebellion (1st century), a new technology was developed for shields, which used the inherent stability of the triangle. Behind the shield were two interlocking triangles, forming a hexagonal pattern of support points. If you've ever seen a Buckminster Fuller geodesic, you know how strong triangle-based designs are!
In Kabbalah, the two triangles represent the dichotomies inherent in man: good vs. evil, spiritual vs. physical, etc. The two triangles may also represent the reciprocal relationship between the Jewish people and God. The triangle pointing up symbolizes our good deeds, which go up to heaven and activate a flow of goodness back down to the world, symbolized by the triangle pointing down.
Thinkingstuff said:Moloch is not alive. Jews don't worship Moloch, Christians don't worship Molec. The Cross is a symbol of execution does that mean Christians worship Hades (the God of the dead)? Or a fish represents Posidon. Does our fish symbol mean we worship him? We all live on the same planet so it stands to reason there would be cross over symbols that mean something entirely different to the group using it. That can't be taken seriously. Is this Texe guy an anti-semetic? Is he an arian supremisist? Does he hope for Anarchy? Does he were combat boots with red laces? I don't know. Do you?
Marcia said:This is an answer from a rabbi about the Star of David, who admits no one knows for sure the origins but he gives different theories:

He also relates it to the Kabbalah, which is Gnostic and occultic and not biblical but is a part of some Orthodox Judaism:
Martin Luther said:Moloch is a demon, if you called him he may come to you. I can assure you he is real and alive. The Jews are a religious people who have rejected Messiah, they are not Israelites. Their holy book is the Talmud in which they claim that Christ is being boiled in human excrement. The Freemasons and the Jews both worship Moloch, Google the Bohemian grove, most of the leadership in the US is a part of this satanic cult. They see Israel as belonging to them. They will force a type of bible fulfillment in that they (the Christ rejecters) will not only gain Israel but will rule the earth, at least for seven years. The worst part is most Christians are fighting these wars for them! To wave the Star of David is akin to waving the flag of the antichrist.
I didn't make any previous comment about you, personally, I do not believe, and I also believe I made some comment about getting some things right on the cited site, as well. FTR, I didn't actually comment on what Texe Marrs believes, just on the 'attitude' of what is presented, I think.Martin Luther said:Let me shout this from the roof tops, I am not KJV only! I certainly do not agree with everything Texe Marrs believes but he does get some things right.
EdSutton said:Personally, I am amazed to run into so many individuals who claim to know a great deal about darkness, but don't appear to know a great deal about light. To me, that just seems :tear:

Most people do not know the origins of most symbols. Symbols change over time and among various cultures. The pentagram, now used in Wicca, used to represent the 5 wounds of Christ (however, I do not suggest wearing a pentagram because now it represents Wicca).
A 6 pointed star is a geometric symbol; it is not evil in and of itself. It depends on what it is representing. God is the one who gave shape to creation so geometric shapes are merely geometric shapes.
There is no proof that the Star of David is evil when it represents Judaism.
Yep! Mike Warnke was located in my neck of the woods, for a while. This was where the "roof fell in" on him, so to speak.Thinkingstuff said:I agree with you. Remember a Mike Wornkey (spelling?)
