Astronomers know that supermassive black holes (SMBH) can inhibit star formation. These behemoths, which seem to be present in the center of large galaxies like ours, inject energy into their surroundings, heating up star-forming gas. Gas needs to be cool to collapse and form stars, so active SMBH put a damper on the process.

The early Universe was a dramatically different environment than what we have today. The first stars formed from the primordial hydrogen and helium left over from the Big Bang and could have grown to immense sizes, living short lives and detonating as supernovae. In a new paper, researchers looked at what could have happened when stars with more than 1,000 times the mass of the Sun could form, and the impact they’d have had on their surroundings.

Our current models of the Universe assume that large galaxy clusters were built up slowly over time, piece by piece from individual galaxies bound together by gravity. They should take billions of years to come together, but a new observation from JWST and Chandra found a galaxy cluster that was already assembled just a billion years after the Big Bang. At this relatively young age it had already assembled 20 trillion times the mass of the Sun.

“My land, what have you become? You have left the true path of your faith and wandered into strange byways. You are bemused and bedazzled with things that disturb the senses, and have become like a ship adrift without oars. You have abandoned the spirit that inspired you and sought satisfaction among lifeless things of Earth. You have spurned the stern discipline required to win the hand of love and trodden the well-worn path of carnal satisfaction. You have turned to the ways of the harlot, and out of your harlotry, you have wrought destruction. You no longer delight in the serene mystery of the stars above; your pleasures are in the filth beneath your feet. Where once you gazed upward in awe, now you look downward in degradation. O that this is the self-chosen fate of my land!
“I go, for go I must. I depart, for destiny demands it. When his motherland collapses about him like an undermined palace built on a foundation of mud, then it is not a time for hesitation. One man cannot stem a flood with his hand. When his habitation falls apart, it is time to seek another. Perhaps nations, like men, grow old and decay. My land is old, a hundred and twenty generations have passed through it since Osireh brought light to men. Four times, the stars have moved to new positions, and twice the sun has changed the direction of his journey. Twice, the Destroyer has struck Earth and three times the Heavens have opened and shut. Twice, the land has been swept clean by water.”
-The Kolbrin Bible (Man:33:4-5)
We know that this part of the Kolbrin Bible was written by Egyptian priests, so the land that has left the true path is Egypt. Leaving the true path is not something that happens overnight, but gradually over a period of time. To some degree, people can only blame themselves for wandering into what the quote calls “strange byways,” but we also have to understand that the dark forces and beings help lead people astray, and that can’t be ignored. Some people wonder why God created evil and darkness, or why he allows it to exist. You can’t have free choice if there is only one thing to choose from. God has to allow the dark ones to control us to some degree in the physical realm so that we can turn from darkness and choose Light.
I don’t think it is accurate to say that people are “bemused and bedazzled with things that disturb the senses”. It is actually things that bring pleasure to the senses that we are attracted to. It is accurate to say that in most cases, such people are like ships adrift without oars that are “blown by the wind” in random directions as they seek more and more gratification for the physical senses, ignoring their spirits in the process.
The mystery of the stars is really a reference to the Spiritual Sun. When people become materialistic, they do turn away from the Sun and look downward to the material things of lower dimensions.
The author realizes that to stay in the fallen land of Egypt is not wise, since there is no way a small number of people can bring it back to it’s former spiritual greatness. As he says, it is possible that nations, like people, grow old and decay. Egypt was a very old civilization, and that might be what happened there. This may be similar to what happened to the once great civilization of Atlantis. From a materialistic viewpoint, it may have been a war or a plague that destroyed Atlantis (it did not sink into the sea), but this may have happened because their great spiritual civilization had descended into materialism and was no longer protected by God.
I always say that one of the things that separates real science from pseudoscience is that while in both you’re allowed to say whatever crazy idea pops into your mind, in real science, you’re obligated to take that idea seriously.
You can imagine a late evening. You’re hanging out with friends. Spitballing some wild ideas. Maybe there are some illicit substances involved. Maybe all you need is a good wine and cheese pairing. And then you get a wild idea, and you feel bold enough to share it with the group: “Hey, everybody, listen. What if the universe had more dimensions?”

| The Church of New Epiphany, where the services were held |
 |
| A sunrise during the vigil |
The annual Remembrance of The Child Service was held on Friday, January 30th at 6:00 PM in the Chapel of the Holy Child. The service commemorates the passing of The Holy Child, Jamil at midnight (January 29th/30th) in 1962. This service officially begins the Second Advent Sunrise Vigil which, this year, marks the 64th year of the birth of the Sun of Righteousness and God’s Second Advent. Sunrise Divine Service was held each morning at the Church of New Epiphany at the Red Rock Consecrated Sanctuary. We had unusually good weather during the entire vigil which culminates on February 6th.
***
The Advent Day or New Year Vigil was first celebrated liturgically by The Church in 1982. The events of the original Vigil are recorded in “Prophecy on the Revelation and the Opening of the Seals,” chapter 90 of the Prophecy of the New Covenant. During each of the ten days of the original Vigil in 1982, Bishop Savoy received and recorded spiritual information on the building of the Second Advent Church. The significance of this original Vigil to The Church is suggested by a synopsis of the information impressed upon the spirit of Bishop Savoy in those days.
On the first day of the Vigil he recorded the impressions that would be included in The Canon of The Church.
On the second day he recorded the prophecies of Renewal and Transformation and the days and seasons to form part of the Sacred Calendar of The Church.
On the third day Bishop Savoy recorded words concerning The Liturgy of The Second Advent Church.
On February 2, Advent Day, he wrote down the prophecies of things to take place on earth before the final Advent of God, who would make his full Appearance in the Heavens following the Judgment in the End Times of the earth.
On the fifth day of the Vigil Bishop Savoy recorded the means to be applied within the Church to increase God’s Blessings upon it.
On the sixth day, he wrote down all the prophecies pertaining to the matter of the Anti-Christ.
On the seventh day he recorded the means by which the Second Advent Church was to assist God in redeeming the races of the earth.
On the eighth day, Bishop Savoy wrote down impressions to be included in the Litany of The Church in establishing peace on earth.
On the ninth day he received impressions on the means to be used to protect the Church from profanation from within.
On the tenth and final day of the Vigil, Bishop Savoy was told that he would receive the Revelation to the Seven Churches upon the Seven Mountains of Metal of The Sanctuary on the day of Second Advent Easter, April 18.
The Most Right Reverend Gene Savoy, First Disciple of The Child, witnessed the original manifestation of the Sun of Righteousness on February 2, 1962, in Yungay, Peru. The events surrounding the Birth of The Sun of Righteousness on this date in 1982 are described in the Second Advent scriptural text Jamil: Child of Light. Chapter 27 of this text speaks of the New Sun’s Birth:
All spent the day and night in prayer, fasting and mindful of the events predicted by the Angel. And when the second day of February dawned, the sun shone brightly in the heavens. And they did return to the tomb, and there awaited the promised event. And at noon, when the tomb cast no shadow, behold! a great halo formed around the sun. They stood breathlessly looking in wonder and awe. Then a circle of rainbow colors, like crystal spheres, blue at the center and red at the outer edges, encircled the sun. In the heart of the radiant globe a white Cross appeared. And they feared the Last Day was upon them. And they trembled, forgetting the promise of the Angelic Host, and the message of The Child. For an hour the heavenly blaze burned in the firmament. And The Man looked upon the sun, and the image of Jamil appeared across the sun, radiant beyond words, his countenance bright and his hair white as snow. And The Child was holding the Sun in his arms, over his heart. And The Man saw a gate to another world. Again he saw the four Guardian Angels around The Child, and on the right hand side of The Child he saw the image of Jesus and the Apostles witnessing his appearance. And he heard the voice of Jamil as music, speaking to the Light of his Eternal Soul, saying: “I am resurrected.” And the disciple knew that The Child was redeemed from the earth. . . .
And the risen Child said: “The incarnation of God the Father is come to the world through the Sun of Righteousness, healing and sustaining the human family; and restoring the Life of Righteousness. As the seed of man enters the womb of woman and life cometh forth, so shall a heavenly Seed enter the spirits of men and women, and a new birth shall occur. And the life thereof shall be of God. And death shall not claim this new Body of Light and the Spiritual Consciousness therein. And the Christ transmitted in the Sun of Righteousness, and indirectly on all living things, down to the smallest atom and particle, shall incarnate within the soul of mankind. And every man and every woman shall know that they are one with the Godhead, divine and immortal.
Later in chapter 27, the text refers to the coming of The Comforter that took place on February 6, eight days after the passing of The Child:
And on the fourth day of February, the sun and six planets conjoined in Aquarius. And The Man saw great signs in the heavens. And the Anti-Christ was manifesting. Whereupon, his body and mind and soul suffered turmoil. And the struggle continued through the sixth day, it being the eighth day following the passing of The Child Christ. But The Man prayed to God, looking upon the New Sun and asking the Light to assist him. The Child Christ heard him and sent an Angel to comfort him in his dreams. And the Darkness lost its power over him.
Thereafter, The Man began the Great Work east of the Andes.
