David Bowie's Blackstar Video-Bowie's Final Word to God Defiant in Death

I watched David Bowie's Blackstar Video.

Here's what I think.

This is an angry, dying man. He knows that his mortality is about to overtake him and he is getting in a parting shot at God.

You see Bowie with the death bandana around his eyes. The herky jerky movements of the young people indicate death throws. This is speaking of the dying moment. The astronaut is dead. This is Bowie. He is telling God that even when he's dead, he will be worshipped by young women. The bearded men on the cross are a representation of Jesus, whom Bowie declares to be dead like he is about to be dead.

Bowie is declaring to the "I Am", which is the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob that he will be accepted because of how great Bowie thinks he is. He declares himself to be a black star, not a white star.

But, the Bible teaches that no man comes into the sheep fold except through Jesus Christ. Even if a man were famous and wealthy on earth, he still must come to salvation through humility and through the Son of God. There is no other way.

This is David Bowie declaring his intention to rebel against God. It is fait accompli. He is angry and making his last statement to God. It is defiant, but also for naught.

Very sad.
