SATAN'S KINGDOM (OCCULT PART II)

  SATAN’ KINGDOM (OCCULT – PART II)

BY DR. MERVYN ABREO

Deals with Satan’s kingdom, his demons and his future!

SATAN! It is the English counterpart for the Hebrew word meaning ‘adversary’. The Greeks use the name ‘devil’ for Satan.

          Due to man’s sin, everything was put under the subjugation of Satan, and, therefore, ‘he is also called the ruler of the world.’ (John12:31).

          He is also called the ‘devil’ (Mathew 4:1), the ‘tempter’ (Mathew4:3) and the ‘accuser’ (Revelations 12:10).

          He is the leader of the kingdom of darkness whose followers are the demons. And therefore, Satan is also called ‘the prince of demons’ (Luke 11:15).

          Satan, unlike God, isn’t omnipresent (being present at all places at all times).

DEMONS: They are essentially spirit beings who consider Satan as their lord and master. As angels are also spirits, they are called ‘evil spirits’.

          They are numerous. When Satan (who was Lucifer, the light bearer), fell from God’s grace, he took one third of the angels of heaven with him.

          Demons are symbolized as scavenger birds, frogs, locusts, scorpions, serpents and vipers.

          Demons have a will, and can communicate with one another.

          “……when an unclean spirit goes out of man, it roams and decides to go back. But takes with him seven other spirits”. (Mathew 12:43-45; Luke 11: 24-26).

THE FUTURE OF SATAN: Satan’s world is wrongly portrayed as one in which he is tormenting sinners who have died and gone to hell. He is incorrectly depicted as a ruler of his fiery hell.

                                                       

          The truth is that God has banished Satan, and his demons, to an eternity of hell- one in which he is punished for all eternity.

          So, if Satan reminds you of your past, (one which you have repented of, and changed in Christ), then you remind him of his future.

SATAN'S WORLD OF DEMONOLOGY-PART I

SATAN’S WORLD OF DEMONOLOGY (OCCULT—PART I)

BY DR. MERVYN ABREO

OCCULT: It denotes the kingdom of darkness!

IT’S RULER: Satan, also called the Devil.

 

HIS KINGDOM: He rules his kingdom world, with its ascending hierarchy of demons, which consist of: principalities, and powers, and rulers of darkness of this world and spiritual wickedness in high places.

 

THE NATURAL & THE SUPERNATURAL

WORLDS:

          We all live in the natural world. And some of us believe that there is a supernatural world, whether it is the kingdom of God alone, or the kingdom of God along with the kingdom of Satan.

THE TWO WORLDS INTERMINGLE:

          The mistake most people do is to try and separate the two worlds, i.e. the natural and the supernatural. They believe that the natural world operates on one level, while the supernatural on another.

          Therefore they try and explain every occurrence in the natural world with natural logic i.e. by scientific reasoning. And when they fail to come to a logical scientific conclusion, they wave it off as an inadequate advancement in science.

           And if they are told that these phenomena, could be, or most probably are, due to the influence or the supernatural on the natural i.e. by the action of evil spirits or demons, they just laugh it off, saying, that they are not superstitious, and do not believe in such nonsense.

           What they fail to realize that there is an overlapping of these two worlds. And not only some of the strange and unexplained phenomena that occurs, but also many mental and physical diseases that exist in the world today, are the direct result of the interaction between these two worlds.

          And, if one wants to be truly powerful and free, one has first of all stop living in denial, accept that these two worlds exist simultaneously, and that they definitely have a powerful influence on one another. And only then can one learn to exert the power of the kingdom of light over that of the kingdom of darkness, and enjoy total freedom and victory! 

          In my subsequent articles I have described in detail Satan’s kingdom, exposed the modus operande of him and his demons, causing: anxiety and panic attacks, the three A. M. nightmares, voices in the head and schizophrenia, oppression, obsession and possession, mental illness, poor self image, temptations, wounds that do not heal, and much, much more.

          But most important of all, the simple practical way to counter and successfully overcome each and every one of them!

          Please read the subsequent articles on how to obtain total deliverance from the forces of darkness!

GAYS AND LESBIANS -- HEALING

 GAYS AND LESBIANS - HEALING

BY DR. MERVYN ABREO

          More important than arguing, by taking either a scientific or a Biblical stand, is finding a solution!

 

         

           Science says that the problem is in the genes! And therefore the cause has nothing to do with psychological issues such as bad upbringing, a domineering mother or being raped in childhood, to name a few.

The Biblical stand is very clear:

          “Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers…..nor homosexual offenders……will inherit the kingdom of God.” (1Corinthians 6:9).

          “If a man lies with a man…….they must be put to death.” (Leviticus 20:13).

          God would definitely not condemn an innocent man or woman. Therefore there has to be a solution!

          God created man and woman to procreate. And therefore, any other relationship is unacceptable!

A balance between science and the Bible:

          If we accept the fact that gays and lesbians are the consequences of errant genes, and we stop there, then, instead of finding a lasting solution, we accept them and condone their actions.

          But a cure has to be sought for because God will not judge someone because of the condition he or she is in, but will definitely judge us as to how we respond to that situation!

          And there is definitely a cure for this problem!! 

Jesus surrounded by sexual temptation: During His three and a half years of ministry, Jesus spent prime time with a few people He knew intimately. They were the twelve apostles who were all male. There were also some women who followed and supported Him in His work.

          But a sexual scandal never occurred! The men, some married and away from their wives, followed Him for months on end. They were closely closeted, living and sleeping together. There were times when Jesus got up early in the morning and went a short distance to pray, leaving the men sleeping together. There were other times when He sent them to preach, and they were away for days on end.

          Jesus and His team were continuously under the scrutiny of the religious leaders, the Pharisees and the Sadducees, who even sent men to spy on them. And these leaders even brought false witnesses to testify against Jesus during His trial.

          But, in spite of them willing to stoop down to any level, they were unable to implicate Jesus or His men in any sexual scandal, so that they could not discredit the message by discrediting the Messenger!

          Besides, no mention of any sexual sin involving His men was ever mentioned in the Gospels. If it had occurred, it would have definitely have been mentioned. Jesus would have exposed and handled it  just as He had handled the woman caught in adultery.

          But there was no sexual scandal! And that was because of the very powerful presence of Jesus.

THE ULTIMATE INFALLABLE TREATMENT:

          Firstly accept it as a disease, and be willing to eradicate it!

          Just as Adam’s sin resulted in a genetic curse for all mankind, similarly these victims are the result of a genetic problem.

          But just as the curse of the genetic sin of Adam was neutralized by the power of the Cross, similarly the genetic curse facing gays and lesbians can definitely be obliterated by the blood of Jesus.

          Lazarus is an excellent example. Just as his, many days, dead and rotting body was brought to life, proving that in nature a reversal procedure can take place, similarly an aberrant gene can definitely be changed back into a normal one so that it could do what it had been initially created for!

          The Bible challenges us to act: “Put to death…..sexual immorality.” (Colossians 3:5). Therefore the solution is in our hands. It is left to us to act. But we cannot do so in our own strength.

          And therefore, for those who are bound in homosexuality or lesbianism, they should invite Jesus into their lives by receiving the Holy Spirit. It’s as easy as taking in a breath of air!

WOMEN FULFILLING GOD'S WILL

WOMEN FULFILLING GOD’S WILL

BY DR. MERVYN ABREO

MARY, JESUS’ MOTHER: Walked in utter obedience to the Lord. When the angel told her that she will be with child, she blindly accepted. 
(Luke 1: 29 – 34). 

          Imagine, even today, a fourteen year old unmarried girl pregnant with child. And she experienced it two thousand years ago.

ESTHER: Mordecai, King Xerxes’ adviser, had managed to get the king to sign an edict to have all the Jews annihilated!

          But Esther, at the risk of her own life, went uninvited into the presence of the king and convinced him, not only have Mordecai killed, but to reverse the edict and allow the Jews to avenge themselves on their enemies who had sought to destroy them.

RUTH: Leaving the security of her family she opted to go with her mother-in-law, Naomi to an unknown land to dwell with strange people who worshiped a God unknown to her.

          But in faith she declared to Naomi, “Your people will be my people, and your God my God” (Ruth 1: 16). She was wedded to Boaz, and their offspring became one of the ancestors of Christ Jesus.

SHIPHRAH AND PUAH: Were the two midwives at the time when Moses was born. Because the Israelites, as slaves in Egypt, grew in numbers and strength, the Pharaoh commanded them to kill all the male babies.

           But, out of reverence to the Lord, they disobeyed, thereby saving many babies, including Moses. And God rewarded them, by giving them families of their own! (Exodus 1: 15 – 21).

 MOSES’ MOTHER AND SISTER: Because of the edict to kill all male babies, Moses’ mother hid him. But when he was three months old, and couldn't hide him anymore, she got a papyrus basket and coated it with tar and pitch. She put the child into the basket and placed it among the reeds along the bank of the river Nile.

          The Pharaoh’s daughter, while bathing in the river, spotted the basket. Moses’ sister, who had been instructed to keep an eye on the child, offered to get a woman to nurse the child. Moses’ mother nursed the child and when he grew up was adopted by the daughter of Pharaoh. (Genesis 2: 1 – 10).

WORMHOLE AND BIBLE

WORMHOLE and BIBLE

BY DR. MERVYN ABREO

What is a wormhole? A hypothetical concept in physics, it is an imaginary tunnel that connects two different points in space-time. Theoretically, the entry and exit of the tunnel could be in the same universe or in different universes, making it possible to travel between the two in a short time.

WORMHOLE

          The term was coined by physicist John Wheeler in 1957. He provided the first diagram of a wormhole as we know it.

          Some physicists like to believe that there are naturally occurring wormholes in space created during the Big bang which will make time travel across various distances in time possible.

Wormholes and the Bible: There are several examples in the Bible, when not only Jesus, but ordinary Christians like you and I, have traveled through the wormhole and circumvented space-time!

Lord Jesus transcends time and space!

                1) After the famous miracle of the multiplication of the loaves and fishes and after Jesus walks on water, He gets into the boat and: ‘immediately they reached the shore toward which they had been slowly making their way’ (Jh.6:21). In a split second, He, the boat and the disciples were transported, ACROSS TIME AND SPACE, to reach the other shore!

                 There were two occasions when Jesus was surrounded by his enemies who wanted to kill Him. But he just walks through them. (John 8:59; 10:39).

                There are boundaries of time-space-matter which have been surmounted, by not only Jesus, but also by ordinary people, because He had said, when He was on earth, that we can do even greater deeds than which were accomplished by Him. So we have a definite promise.

Jacob’s wormhole: He had a dream in Bethel in which he saw a stairway or ladder, resting on the earth, with its top reaching to heaven, and the angels of God were ascending and descending on it. (Genesis 28: 12).

          And Jacob realized that this ladder was the gate of heaven. (Genesis 28: 17).

          There are seven levels of heaven, and this ladder seen by Jacob probably led to the lowest level. And the ‘heaven’ he saw was nothing but another dimension, and the ‘ladder’ a wormhole leading to it!

Jesus’ disciple, Philip transcends time and space!

                Philip was sent by God to expound the Scriptures to an important Ethiopian official. However, after faithfully completing his mission, he travels through a wormhole.

                Philip is between Jerusalem and Gaza and in the next instant he finds himself in Azotus, several miles away. (Acts 8: 26-40).

                Therefore, in the article, ‘Power over time, space and matter,’ (in this blog) I have shown, with examples, how these boundaries can be surmounted by ordinary people, making us truly free and powerful.

MEN FULFILLING GOD'S WILL

MEN FULFILLING GOD’S WILL

BY DR MERVYN ABREO

MOSES: He represented the Law. He was there when Jesus needed him. The Lord used him to free His people from slavery and lead them to the Promised Land.

           Moses totally depended on Jesus, asking His advice at every stage (Numbers 9:6). And they developed a personal relationship. God called him a friend with whom He could speak face to face.

ELIJAH: He represented the prophets. He brought the Israelites back to the Lord. (1Kings 18: 14 - 46).

          Elijah’s achievement (similar to John the Baptist) was “…….to turn the hearts of their fathers to their children and the disobedient to the wisdom of the righteous……” (Mathew 17:9-13 ; Mark 9:9-13; Luke 1-17).

JOSEPH: The foster father of Jesus, takes God at His word, and accepts Mary in her pregnant state.

           He faithfully and diligently takes care of both the mother and her infant Son.

PETER, JOHN and JAMES: These three belonged to the core group of Jesus-because they were of one mind with the Lord.

          They made His life, their life. His ministry became their ministry. His very thoughts and purposes became their own.

          They were always with Him during His three and a half years of ministry, continuously learning open-mindedly, and being ministered to by Him, readying themselves for their own ministry, which was only a continuation of His own thoughts and purposes, which they continued after the death and resurrection of the Lord. They gave up everything for the Lord, and He in turn spent prime time with them.

          Paul in his letter to the Galatians praises them: “James, Peter and John, those reputed to be pillars……” (Galatians 2:9, 10).

JOHN THE BAPTIST: He was sent before the Christ, “to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.” (Luke 1: 17).

          He was “a voice calling in the desert……..preparing a way for the Lord………so all mankind will see God’s salvation.” (Luke 3: 4).

          He preached repentance and baptized them. He confessed that he was not the Christ, though he even baptized the Lord, but in true humility confessed that he was not even worthy to untie the throngs of the Lord’s sandals.

          Today, we too can be in His core group and even become His friend. It’s easy. Just do His will! Evangelize!!
