  • Are the Thoughts That We Think Actually Ours?

    Have you ever had a thought hit your mind and wondered, “Where did that come from?”

    I do not mean a normal random thought like, “I wonder if ducks ever get embarrassed.” That is just the brain doing brain things, probably with too much coffee involved. I mean the thoughts that show up sharp, dark, tempting, accusing, fearful, or completely out of character.

    A thought can enter your mind and feel like it belongs to you, but does it?

    That is a question worth asking.

    There is technology people call voice-to-skull, often connected to the microwave auditory effect. The basic idea is that certain pulsed microwave signals can create the perception of sound inside a person’s head. This is not the same as a normal speaker playing sound through the air. It is a strange field of study where the person perceives sound internally.

    Now, we need to be careful here. This does not mean every strange thought is a machine. It does not mean every person who hears something is being targeted. People can hear voices or sounds for many reasons, including stress, lack of sleep, trauma, grief, medicine, mental health issues, or medical problems. If someone is hearing voices that are distressing, threatening, or telling them to hurt themselves or someone else, they need to talk to a trusted person and get professional help quickly. That is wisdom.

    But the existence of technology that can influence perception should make us stop and think.

    If man can build something that can cause a person to perceive sound internally, even in a limited way, why would it be strange to believe spiritual forces can attempt to influence thoughts?

    That is not fear talking. That is a serious question.

    The Bible already tells us the battle is deeper than flesh and blood. Ephesians 6:12 says, “For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.”

    That verse is not there so we can become paranoid. It is there so we can become awake.

    There is a difference.

    Paranoia makes every shadow your master. Discernment brings the light of Christ into the room and says, “Let’s test this.”

    The mind is a battlefield. Scripture says that plainly. 2 Corinthians 10:5 says we are to cast down imaginations and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, and bring every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ.

    Notice what that means.

    A thought can rise up against the knowledge of God.

    A thought can need to be taken captive.

    A thought can show up and need to be questioned before it gets a chair at the table and starts making decisions for the whole house.

    That alone tells us something. The Bible does not teach us to trust every thought that passes through our mind. It teaches us to examine them, capture them, and bring them under the authority of Jesus.

    So when a thought says, “You are worthless,” what do we do?

    We do not build a home around it. We bring it to the Word.

    Genesis 1:27 says man was made in the image of God. John 3:16 says God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son. Romans 5:8 says God showed His love for us while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

    So that thought does not get to rule.

    When a thought says, “There is no hope,” we bring it to Scripture.

    Romans 15:13 calls God the God of hope. Psalm 42:11 says, “hope thou in God.” 1 Peter 1:3 says God has begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead.

    So that thought gets arrested.

    When a thought says, “Just give in. It does not matter,” we bring it to Christ.

    James 4:7 says, “Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.”

    That is action. Submit. Resist. Stand.

    This is where people can go wrong. Some people learn about mind influence, spiritual warfare, propaganda, manipulation, technology, and darkness, then they spiral into fear. They start watching everything, trusting nothing, sleeping badly, and calling it being awake.

    But if “being awake” makes you more hopeless, more angry, more isolated, and more consumed by darkness, then you have to ask: awake to what?

    Jesus did not call us to live as prisoners of fear. 2 Timothy 1:7 says, “For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.”

    A sound mind. That matters.

    God cares about the mind. He cares about what we meditate on. He cares about what we let in through our eyes and ears. He cares about the thoughts we rehearse all day like a song stuck on repeat.

    Philippians 4:8 gives us a filter. It tells us to think on things that are true, honest, just, pure, lovely, of good report, virtuous, and praiseworthy.

    That does not mean ignore evil. Christians should not be clueless. But there is a way to notice darkness without feeding on it like it is dinner.

    A thought enters. You test it.

    Does this thought agree with Scripture?

    Does it produce fear or conviction?

    Does it lead me toward Jesus or away from Him?

    Does it push me to sin, despair, pride, bitterness, lust, revenge, or hopelessness?

    Does it accuse without leading to repentance?

    Does it sound like the voice of the Shepherd?

    Jesus said in John 10:27, “My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.”

    The voice of Christ leads us toward truth, repentance, peace, obedience, and life. The enemy accuses, tempts, twists, shames, distracts, and drives people into fear.

    And our own flesh is no innocent little lamb either. Jeremiah 17:9 says, “The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?”

    So we have three things to consider: the flesh, the world, and spiritual forces. Add modern technology and media manipulation into the mix, and yes, the mind needs guarding.

    But guarding your mind does not mean living scared.

    It means living submitted to Jesus.

    Start simple.

    Read the Word daily. Pray honestly. Sleep. Turn off the doom machine sometimes. Stop feeding every dark curiosity. Pay attention to what your thoughts produce. Speak Scripture out loud. Get around believers who are grounded, loving, and honest. Ask God for wisdom.

    And when a thought comes in that does not belong, do not panic.

    Take it captive.

    Bring it to Jesus.

    The question is not only, “Are all my thoughts mine?”

    The better question is: “Who am I letting lead my thoughts?”

    Because every thought is going somewhere.

    Let yours be brought back to Christ.

  • Silly Rabbit, the Truth Is Jesus

    Rabbit holes are strange things.

    You go in looking for answers. You start with one question. Then that question opens three more. Then those three open fifteen. Then suddenly it is 1:37 in the morning, your coffee is cold, your eyes feel like sandpaper, and you are reading about something you did not even know existed four hours ago.

    And the weird part is, you still do not feel settled.

    You know more. You have more information. You have names, dates, symbols, connections, theories, documents, videos, screenshots, and that one guy in the comments who somehow has a 72-part thread about it.

    But do you have peace?

    That is the question.

    Because rabbit holes can make us feel like we are getting closer to truth while our hearts are drifting farther from the Truth.

    Jesus said in John 14:6, “I am the way, the truth, and the life.” That matters. Truth is not just a pile of facts. Truth is a Person. Truth has a name. Truth has a voice. Truth has scars in His hands and victory over the grave.

    So yes, research can be good. Asking questions can be good. Testing things can be good. 1 Thessalonians 5:21 says to “test all things; hold fast what is good.” God does not ask us to be gullible. He does not tell us to shut our brains off and pretend evil does not exist.

    But there is a difference between testing things and being consumed by things.

    There is a difference between being awake and being angry at everyone you think is asleep.

    That is where a lot of us get caught.

    We start researching corruption, deception, spiritual darkness, lies in the world, lies in the media, lies in history, lies in institutions, lies in entertainment, lies in everything. And some of it is real. Some of it is darker than we wanted to know. Some of it makes you sit back and say, “Lord, what is wrong with this world?”

    But then something happens inside us.

    We start looking at people differently.

    We hear someone talk about normal life and we think, “They have no idea.”

    We see someone enjoy something simple and we think, “They are asleep.”

    We start feeling contempt.

    That word matters. Contempt is not discernment, wisdom. or the Holy Spirit giving you special vision. Contempt looks at people made in the image of God and quietly places them beneath you.

    And that is dangerous.

    Proverbs 16:18 says pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall. That verse is not only for the rich, famous, and powerful. It is for the researcher too. It is for the person who knows a little too much and starts thinking knowledge makes them higher than their neighbor.

    I have been there. Maybe you have too.

    You learn something wild, and suddenly everyone else feels foolish. You want to shake people awake. You want to send them links. You want them to see what you see.

    But sometimes what we call “waking people up” is really just throwing darkness in their face without giving them the Light.

    And that is not the mission.

    The word knowledge is interesting. You can break it down like “knowing the ledge.” Now, I am not saying that is the actual etymology. I am saying it works as a picture. Because that is what a lot of rabbit hole knowledge feels like. You know the ledge. You know where the drop is. You know how deep the hole goes. You can point to the cliff and say, “Look how far down that darkness goes.”

    But if all you do is know the ledge, you are still staring down.

    You are still looking into the pit.

    You are still measuring darkness.

    And the longer you stare into darkness, the more distracted you become from the eternal Light.

    John 8:12 says Jesus spoke to them, saying, “I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life.”

    That is not poetry for a coffee mug. That is spiritual survival.

    Jesus did not say, “He who studies darkness will have life.”

    He did not say, “He who connects every dot will have peace.”

    He did not say, “He who knows every hidden thing will be free.”

    He said in John 8:31-32, “If you abide in My word, you are My disciples indeed. And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”

    Abide in His Word.

    That is where freedom comes from.

    A lot of rabbit holes offer knowledge, but they do not give freedom. They give suspicion. They give anxiety. They give obsession. They give a strange kind of pride that feels like wisdom but produces no fruit of the Spirit.

    Galatians 5:22-23 says the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.

    So here is a hard question: Is your research producing that?

    Is it making you more loving?

    More joyful?

    More peaceful?

    More patient with people?

    More kind?

    More faithful?

    More gentle?

    More self-controlled?

    Or is it making you bitter, jumpy, distracted, arrogant, and unable to enjoy the good gifts God put right in front of you?

    Because God did not create us to live hunched over a glowing screen, feeding our minds darkness until we cannot see our own family, our own Bible, our own prayer life, or our own calling.

    He made us to walk with Him.

    Micah 6:8 says the Lord requires us to do justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with our God.

    That is simple, but it is not shallow.

    Do justice. Love mercy. Walk humbly.

    A rabbit hole can show you evil exists. Scripture already told us that. Ephesians 6:12 says we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, powers, rulers of darkness, and spiritual hosts of wickedness in heavenly places.

    So yes, darkness is real.

    Corruption is real.

    Deception is real.

    Spiritual warfare is real.

    But Jesus is more real.

    Colossians 1:16-17 says all things were created through Him and for Him, and in Him all things consist. Colossians 2:15 says He disarmed principalities and powers and made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them.

    That means we do not research from fear. We research from victory.

    We do not look into darkness because darkness is our teacher. We look carefully, test what is true, then lift our eyes back to Christ.

    That is the balance.

    Research, but do not worship research.

    Ask questions, but do not let questions become your master.

    Expose darkness, but do not live in it.

    Learn what is happening, but do not forget who is reigning.

    Hebrews 12:2 says to look unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith. That is the direction. Eyes up. Heart steady. Mind renewed.

    Silly rabbit, the truth is Jesus.

    The hole does not save you.

    The thread does not save you.

    The secret knowledge does not save you.

    Jesus saves.

    So go ahead and research when needed. Be sober. Be watchful. Test the spirit. Pay attention. But do not lose sight of Christ in the middle of it.

    The darkness wants your attention.

    Jesus wants your heart.

    Look up.

  • Beyond the Mind: A Spiritual Exploration of Mental Disorders

    As I was reading Proverbs chapter 20 the other day, verse 24 really stood out to me: “The steps of man are from God; what does man know about his own way.” Now, that verse is wrapped in my mind, entangling my thoughts, as I believe it holds profound relevance in today’s culture. In a world where mental disorders, depression, and anxiety are prevalent, taking action often helps alleviate these burdens. However, merely taking action isn’t always sufficient, as it may conflict with one’s moral principles. Each of us is born with an innate sense of right and wrong, though the environment in which we are raised can shape and alter these moral standards, for better or for worse. This essay is an attempt to explore the etymology of mental disorders and their connection to a divine being, commonly referred to as God.

    First, let’s dissect the word “disorder.” “Dis” signifies a lack of, or opposition to, while “order” traces back to its 13th-century roots, denoting a community living under religious discipline. From Old French “ordre,” meaning position, regulation, or religious regulation, and Latin “ordo/ordinem,” signifying a row, line, pattern, or routine. Consequently, “disorder” implies a disruption or confusion of this disciplined order. Thus, without such structure, individuals may experience confusion, leading to conditions like depression and anxiety.

    Before delving into depression and anxiety, let’s examine the terms “mental” and “illness” separately before intertwining them. “Mental,” originating in the early 15th century, pertains to the mind, intellect, or spiritual character, stemming from Latin “mentalis/men,” meaning of the mind. “Illness,” circa 1500, refers to disease, sickness, or moral degeneration, derived from the Old Norse “illr,” denoting evil or hardship. When combined, “mental illness” signifies a state of moral or spiritual affliction. Thus, mental disorders arise from a place of spiritual turmoil, engendered by a lack of discipline and order.

    Anxiety, dating back to the 1520s, is characterized by apprehension, unease, and a restless dread of uncertainty. Its roots lie in the uncertain future, which, for many, induces feelings of anxiety and apprehension. However, entrusting our uncertainties to God, as advocated in Proverbs 20:24, can alleviate this burden. Similarly, Jesus’s teachings in Matthew 6:25-34 urge us to trust in God’s providence, freeing us from worry about the future.

    Depression, another prevalent mental disorder, entails prolonged sadness and loss of interest in once-enjoyable activities. Its etymology, from the 1400s, suggests a pressing down or dejection of the spirit, akin to the angular distance of a star below the horizon. This metaphorical “pressing down” is indicative of spiritual oppression, thwarting individuals from fulfilling their earthly duties. By straying from God’s path, we succumb to this spiritual oppression, manifesting as depression.

    Even the most industrious individuals, when plagued by depression and anxiety, may find their productivity hindered. This stems from a focus on worldly pursuits over spiritual enrichment. As Matthew 6:19-21 elucidates, worldly treasures are ephemeral, whereas treasures in heaven endure. Hence, combining material success with spiritual wealth empowers individuals to advance the kingdom of God.

    Another note on worry about the future, Jesus tells us in Matthew 6:25-34 that the birds have no worry about what they will eat and troubles of tomorrow, so why should we? We are more important to God than the birds, so won’t God provide for us if we have complete faith in him? That answer is a resounding YES!

    In conclusion, God’s Word offers solace amid life’s chaos, guiding us toward order and enlightenment. By fostering a relationship with God through prayer and meditation on His Word, we illuminate the darkness within and without. You are a vessel of God’s light; nurture it through the study of scripture and communion with the Divine. In doing so, you’ll outshine any counterfeit illumination. Thank you for investing your time in reading this. Have a blessed day.

    P.S. If anyone here is struggling with mental afflictions it truly would be beneficial to pray. Even if you have never done this before. Just ask God with sincerity to take your troubles from you. Then act diligently to understand His Word for it will help more than any other human can. With God on your side you’re problems become so small they are no longer overshadowing you.

  • The Serpent Hides In Plain Sight

    If you have been following me or listening to my podcasts, then you will be quite aware that words are tools to cast spells. Whether they are good or evil spells is up to the intention behind them. While I was researching a completely different topic involving giants and serpents, I came across the Hebrew word for serpent/sorcery/witchcraft, which is nachash/nahash (I’ve seen it spelled a couple of ways). What interested me is the plural version nechashim. The only anagram that formed was machines. Now, that’s interesting as I have been researching computers and binary code. Since computers use sigil magick, and binary code is based on ancient divination tools called the i-ching.

    So, machines relating to the serpent makes sense to me. Machine’s etymology proto-indo-european roots is mahg “to be able, have power.” The Latin Machina meaning “engine, device, trick, or instrument.” Greek makhana meaning “device, tool, contrivance, cunning.”

    I find it interesting that trick or cunning can make it into the definitions of the machine. Cunning is deceitful, and tricks are deceptive and fraudulent. That is exactly what the serpent is, deceiving Adam and Eve in the garden. Perhaps the machines we use are also part of the serpent’s tricks?

    Our world, as we know it, relies on all sorts of different machines, from the one you carry in your pocket to automobiles, ovens, coffee makers, and medical equipment. Think about all the gadgets you have in just your kitchen alone. So many machines that we depend on for our survival.

    Is the serpent hiding in our technology? Tricking us into the convenience of life and eventually going to pull the plug? What would happen if the world didn’t have these machines to rely upon anymore? Looking into what would happen after an EMP (electromagnetic pulse) can give us an idea. After an EMP, people would no longer have long-range communications. All vehicles with microchips would be stranded. Radios, cell phones, all those kitchen gadgets wouldn’t work anymore. Generators and fuel pumps, water pumps would cease operation. The grid and most solar panels, for that matter, wouldn’t produce energy. The world would be in darkness. Something I think the Prince of darkness would like.

    It would seem like this could be the serpent’s master plan to have the masses cast into darkness (his kingdom). It would make logical sense for the serpent to hook us on convenience just to pull the rug from under us. I can’t say for sure whether or not the serpent is in machines, but as they say, the devil is in the details.

  • The Influence Of The One Who Does Not Exist

      Ever wonder how clearing trees for solar panels is considered green energy? Or putting up wind turbines which kill birds and hazardous waste is environmentally friendly? How about electric vehicles which need lithium batteries and lithium mining is 1000x worse than oil mining. How are these all considered sustainable when at every level there is massive amounts of pollution spilling into the atmosphere of the Earth.

       Ever wonder why all this nonsense going on in the world is allowed to continue. Why if you look around you see despair and depression? Why is so much of the world we live in so fake? It is the influence of the one who insists he does not exist.

      The fiat money system called the USD is the tar that paved the way for all of this Buffon quackery. The fact sugar subsidies exist is really concerning especially with what we know about the poison of sugar. We the people are completely fed up with the domestic terrorist in the state houses and D.C. Yes I am talking about the selected politicians. Those ones are the easiest to figure out. they are a bunch of greedy pukes who would sell out their own mothers if they could get a bit more perceived power from it.

      Those who hold positions of perceived power are often susceptible to external influence. and this external Influence is everywhere. In banking, food, media, entertainment, sports, religion, science, education, politics, legal system, non profits, NGO’s, and think tanks. Not to mention secret societies or brotherhoods. They are all connected, they can take you down but you can’t take them down as each piece is a link in a chain. Oaths taken by its members are til death and blackmail is needed for all to be held accountable.

      There is but one force behind the influence. Satan. But as you can see all he has is influence, no power, no authority. So what is influence? From the merriam-webster dictionary  the power or capacity of causing an effect in indirect or intangible ways, the act or power of producing an effect without apparent exertion of force or direct exercise of command,  corrupt interference with authority for personal gain, an emanation of spiritual or moral force, an ethereal fluid held to flow from the stars and to affect the actions of humans. That is all very enlightening

      To get an even better grasp of influence let’s dive into the etymology of the word. from etymonline.com – 14th century, from astrological terms. “Streaming ethereal power from the stars when in certain positions, acting upon character or destiny of men. Emanation from the stars that acts upon one’s character and destiny.” 13th century from Medieval Latin influentia “a flow of water, a flowing in”  in Middle English was non-personal, in reference to any outflowing of energy that produces effect, of fluid or vaporous substance as well as immaterial or unobservable forces. Meaning “exertion of unseen influence by persons”.

      I find it quite interesting from the etymology that influence has its ties to stars. As the watchers and fallen angels would be among the stars. Influence also is part of the unseen realm, something you can not detect with our 5 senses but yet exerts power over the mind. When i see the word influence the thing that sticks out to me is the first 5 letters influ, or in flu. flu being short for influenza, which gets its root from influence. Influenza etymology – epidemic,” originally “visitation, influence (of the stars).” I know modern science says the flu is caused by a virus but lets check that word out.

      Virus from etymonline.com 14th century ” poisonous substance. “poison, sap of plants, slimy liquid, a potent juice,” from Proto-Italic *weis-o-(s-) “poison,” which is probably from a PIE root *ueis-, perhaps originally meaning “to melt away, to flow.” Wait a minute to flow? So virus had a similar meaning as influence and came from the time period. I’m not here to debate viruses and illness I am only looking at definitions and word origins. Because words use symbols which combined make spells. So the meaning of the words we use are important.

      Thinking about the nature of spelling comes clear that words have influence. Asking something politely gets a different response than being rude. Words are seen with our eyes and/or heard with the ears. but the meanings go into that unseen realm. The realm of thinking and ideas, dreams and ambitions. Ephesians 6:12 tells us we are not at war with the flesh/material but with the forces in the unseen realm. And all that realm has is influence.

      We can take their power away by identifying their influence and knowing how to counteract it. Being wise with our words and living in the Word. John 1:1 tells us the Word is God. We should be craving the true Word, and not speaking blasphemy with our mouth. This is something I struggle with when I get too angry I let the influence of the fallen angles to use my mouth. I am not absolving blame from me as it is I who is letting their influence get to me instead of staying in the influence of God The Word. That’s why in Proverbs (Pro-verbs, actions which make one wise.) it talks of discipline. Which is needed for ignoring the influence of the evil one.
