The One Who Returns to Strike Swiftly

Piercing Bull is a Common Cattle Being from the Stars Age, costing 5 faith, with 5 strength and 2 hope. It has Zeal, meaning it can Challenge immediately upon creation, making it a fast and forceful attacker right out of the gate.

The Bull in the Stars, Strength from Heaven

In the story told by the stars, the Piercing Bull charges forward, unstoppable and majestic. He surges in strength, driving forward with divine purpose. This constellation reveals the second coming of Christ, when the Lord returns in power and glory. He will not come in weakness, but in absolute might, just as the heavens portray Him: a warrior King bringing justice upon the earth.

The Word speaks clearly, and the stars agree. The Messiah comes with force, and His presence will pierce through every stronghold of rebellion. The enemies of God will not stand. He is the appointed One, full of power, and His return will shake the heavens and the earth. The Bull in the heavens is not passive, he moves with zeal and victory.

This card's verse is Revelation 1:7:

"Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen."

This is no silent entry. It is the glorious return of the Lion of Judah, the faithful and true rider, the King of kings. He charges through with strength foretold by prophets and confirmed by the heavens. The skies preach it; the Scriptures proclaim it. The righteous Judge is coming, and His path will be clear of every foe.

The Striking King, Victory for Believers

The piercing of Christ’s enemies will also be in with His Church. The same Christ who was pierced for our sins will pierce through the darkness for our deliverance. “They shall look upon me whom they have pierced...” – Zechariah 12:10. He was once wounded, but now He returns in might, to defend His people and fulfill every promise.

Every action He takes in judgment is anchored in righteousness. Believers in Christ have already been judged, at the cross. There, the wrath due for sin was poured out on the spotless Lamb. By trusting in His finished work, we are no longer appointed to wrath, but to receive grace and glory with Him. “For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ.” – 1 Thessalonians 5:9.

So when the Bull charges forward with the Bride, we who belong to Him rejoice. His power secures our peace. His judgment confirms our justification. And His return marks the beginning of the reign of righteousness, where grace is fully realized to those on earth and believers are fully glorified. He comes quickly, and His reward is with Him.
