The audience for this blog may be people seeking God. Someone needed to accept me as teacher, and care to be here. Let us shift the audience a little bit. A Philosophy PhD shows up here, looking to figure things out. Towards understanding God, someone needs to be humble. They need to penitent. Given someone was a PhD, did the dumbing down of higher education happen on your watch, with you and your peers? Maybe someone had a high IQ, but they were not really that smart. There is a burden of leadership with having that advanced degree. Someone was shaping how people think and perceive. Part of Spiritual Warfare has been a war of words, a war of thoughts. (2 Corinthians 10:5) How does man perceive himself? How does man perceive God? Someone with a PhD, or other advanced degree in Philosophy or Theology, he may have been a false prophet, serving under Nietzsche's umbrella. Given someone is reading here, and that was them, they were wrong. Learning to understand God, someone needs to be like an Etch-a-Sketch for a minute. Shake yourself and forget. You were taught wrong. Be teachable.
A lot of philosophers, when they talk about God, they like talking about Philosophical Omni-God. God Almighty is Omni; however, given someone is taking God outside of the an understanding of the Bible and the Prophets, they may be losing the big picture.
What is the difference between Philosophy and Theology? Philosophy is Greek Reason. Theology is Revelation like The Book of Revelations. Given I was to talk about God on /r/Metaphysics, in the context of The Prophets and the Bible, people would throw a fit and lose their minds. In fact, that is exactly what happened one day several years ago. I ended up banned with zero explanation. I went over to /r/Askphilosophy on Reddit, and asked something like "Where is the line drawn in Metaphysics with talking about God in the context of the Bible." I was banned from /r/Askphilosophy for asking a question. Why was I banned? It may be that they were knowledgeable deceivers, doing wrong, and by talking about God Almighty in the context of the Prophets and the Bible, I convicted them.
From Chaos Magic Wiki Article:
During the mid-1970s chaos magic appeared as "one of the first postmodern manifestations of occultism",[14] built on the rejection of a need to adhere to a "single, systematized convention",[21] and aimed at distilling magical practices down to a result-oriented approach rather than following specific practices based on tradition.[22] An oft quoted line from Peter Carroll is "Magic will not free itself from occultism until we have strangled the last astrologer with the guts of the last spiritual master."[23] (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chaos_magic)
What that translates to, is that various Occult practices were secularized, and worked into various philosophies that have been taught by Liberal Institutions. The Counter Culture of the 1960's was influenced by Aleister Crowley and Occult practices. In the 1970, it was mainstreamed into mainstream culture. A lot of people have been taught to think in Occultism. Shifting their thinking, and sharing with them God Almighty, in the context of The Prophets and the Bible, they may suddenly have a Terror of God. They were thinking demonically, and/or, there were demon on their mind, or in them.
Theology is Revelation. Someone like Thomas Aquinas, he was a Catholic building on a Catholic Tradition of Revelation. I am not Catholic, but towards understanding God and the Spiritual, I needed to align myself. History didn't start with Martin Luther. Many of the Protestant Reformers, they worked to distance themselves from a Tradition of Revelation. Why? They were working to distance themselves from Purgatory. It may be that some wrong had been done by some Catholics. That is not what we are writing about today. It is good to be mindful of a Tradition of Revelations getting into things Extra Biblical, and Protestants completely rejecting a Tradition of Revelation for Sola Scritura. Sola Scritura is blinding. Someone like Prophet Ezekiel, he was a Prophetic Seer. He saw the Spiritual like in Ezekiel 1. He had Revelations. There has been a History and Tradition of Revelation.
I suppose I will stop here for a moment. This is something good to reflect on. I may write a Part 2.
Question: Is there any reason you don't become a Catholic?
ReplyDeleteI received a Prophetic Calling. There is no place for me, in the roll God gave for me, in the Catholic Church. I have been in various Catholic Theology groups online, and we get along just fine. There seems to be a big discrepancy between The Bishops.....many of them, and lay Catholics who are more traditional. That discrepancy suggests a culture of corruption and bad leadership. That keeps me away.
Occult people tend to be Wilful egotists who would like to assert their will on society. In this understanding, an a Secularization of Occult practices in Academia, there was an Academic Oligarchy who believed it was smarter and better than everyone else, and worked to force its will......The Will like Nietzsche and The Will.
ReplyDeletePolitical Correctness partially comes from Marxism. In North Korea, someone is most correct politically when they are aligned with the Supreme Leader....or else. That attitude transferred to Political Correctness in the US. That transformed into "Woke," Ideology as religion.
Now that you are aware of this, can you see the Occultism in how The Democratic Party has used its language and words?
