Mystic Egg of Astarte
Sacred Egg of Heliopolis and Typhon’s Egg
Heliopolis is a city of Egypt. Its name means “City of the Sun.” Semiramis was known
there by the name Isis. Semiramis was a moon goddess, and therefore we see an image of
the moon atop her sacred egg. A vast amount of additional information could be provided
to further establish the association of Christmas and Easter with the worship of Baal and

death, burial and resurrection of Christ with Easter Eggs, bunny rabbits, baskets of straw
and flowers, SUNrise services, or ornamental bonnets? It is because all of these things find
their source in the worship of Baal and Asherah, which the church has now almost
universally adopted. Nevertheless, Yahweh has reserved unto Himself a remnant who will
not bow the knee to Baal.
My purposes in sharing these things are several. First, I would have you to see the
pervasiveness of the Jezebel spirit. Second, I would have you understand its attraction.

is truly a characteristic of the Jezebel spirit, but if I were to ask most Christians how
widespread this spirit is in the church a great many would say it is rare. They might point
to a few extreme examples, such as women seeking to be ordained as ministers. Few
