Theory of Evolution and Paganism


Contrary to what the majority of people think, the theory of evolution is an ancient pagan idea.
It's an idea that has always been contrary to the Word of God. 

What is Paganism?

Paganism can be described as a concept of "god" which is rooted in nature itself. It is the belief that nature itself is in someway a god and they are worthy of worship and adoration. The related Pantheism is the belief that all of nature is part of god or the total of god. It is a very old system but nature worship or reverence is always involved somewhere. The modern day new age movement has blatantly re-introduced many pagan ideas.

Darwin or Ancients?
The concept of evolution did not originate with Charles Darwin. It has been the key ingredient of all pagan religions and philosophies from antiquities. (atomism, pantheism, stoicism, gnosticism and all other humanistic systems). Any beliefs that assume the ultimacy of the space/time/matter, reasoning that the universe has always been; are fundamentally evolutionary systems. Depending on how sophisticated the system is, the forces of the universe may be personified as gods and goddesses who organized the eternal chaotic cosmos into what we see now (Babylonian and Egyptian religions), or that they themselves have organizing capabilities (modern scientific evolutionism). In any case, these are just different varieties of the same evolutionist world view. Its essential component is the denial that there is one true God  and Creator.

Many of the great world religions- Buddhism, Confucianism, Taoism, Hinduism, etc. are based on evolution. The liberal sides of Judaism, Islam, Catholicism and Protestantism, are based on evolution.

Pagan ideas evolve as scientific

Evolution is one of those old pagan superstitions that began to be  revived in the 18th and 19th centuries. Thales, a Greek philosopher, was one of the first proponents of the myth of "evolution"; a theory which maintained that all living things came into existence as a result of pure chance, and then developed from one to another.

These pagans were unaware of the existence of God and were worshipping false idols which they themselves devised, pagans answered the questions of origin with the idea  of evolution. Pagan philosophers such as Thales, Anaximander and Empedocles, claimed that living things,  human beings, animals and plants, formed themselves from such inanimate substances as air, fire and water. According to their theories, the first living things suddenly emerged in water and then adapted to the land. In Egypt, the superstition that "living things formed themselves out of mud" was widespread. The Egyptians believed that in this way the frogs which appeared when the waters of the Nile receded were formed.

Democritus, another Greek philosopher, held that originally the universe was composed of nothing but tiny atoms churning in chaos, until they collided together to form larger units—including the earth and everything on it. And to him the universe is without purpose, everything moves according to blind chance and all things came into being spontaneously by itself.

Nothing New under the Sun

To conclude, we see that there is nothing new under the sun. It's just a recycling of old materials under new garbs. Evolution, a false pagan religious idea is reintroduced in this so called "age of enlightenment" as scientific and thus the ancient goal of separating man from his Creator is achieved and he is led to worship idols (himself, nature etc..). It is a theory deeply rooted in rebellion and man's foolish attempt to explain the creation without God.

What has been will be again, what has been done will be done again; there is nothing new under the sun. Ecclesiastes 1:9

Are you filled with the Holy Spirit?



Have you ever sat peacefully at church and suddenly see someone fall on the ground and utter things that you do not understand? While you hear those utterances, do you ever wonder why it doesn’t happen to you? Like, does that make you think less of your path with God? I have been told by many people that when this uncontrollable episode happens, it is the Holy Ghost that takes control of the body. How does the Holy Spirit do this? Is that biblical?

Before we continue with the subject, let’s first clarify who the Holy Spirit is. The Holy Spirit is not a force; He is part of the Godhead, He is not an object, He is God.

That the Holy Spirit is God is clearly seen in many Scriptures, including Acts 5:3-4. In this verse Peter confronts Ananias as to why he lied to the Holy Spirit and tells him that he had “not lied to men but to God.” It is a clear declaration that lying to the Holy Spirit is lying to God. (If you read further, you will see that Ananias and his wife died for sinning against the Holy Spirit)

We can also know that the Holy Spirit is God because He possesses the characteristics of God. For example, His omnipresence is seen in Psalm 139:7-8, “Where can I go from your Spirit? Where can I flee from your presence? If I go up to the heavens, you are there; if I make my bed in the depths, you are there.”

Then in 1 Corinthians 2:10-11, we see the characteristic of omniscience in the Holy Spirit. “But God has revealed it to us by his Spirit. The Spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God. For who among men knows the thoughts of a man except the man’s spirit within him? In the same way no one knows the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God.” www.gotquestions.org

Now that we have established that, We can also prove personification of the Holy Spirit.


“We can know that the Holy Spirit is indeed a divine person because He possesses a mind, emotions, and a will. The Holy Spirit thinks and knows (1 Corinthians 2:10). The Holy Spirit can be grieved (Ephesians 4:30) (Isaiah 63:10). The Spirit intercedes for us (Romans 8:26-27). He makes decisions according to His will (1 Corinthians 12:7-11). The Holy Spirit is God, the third Person of the Trinity. As God, the Holy Spirit can truly function as the Comforter and Counselor that Jesus promised He would be (John 14:16, 26, 15:26).” www.gotquestions.org. We also see in Matthew 12: 31-32 (“Therefore I say to you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven men. Anyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man, it will be forgiven him; but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven him, either in this age or the age to come.”) that blasphemy against the Holy Spirit is a serious offense, so thread lightly on how you speak of the Holy Spirit.


How has the Holy Spirit manifest himself? How does He interact?

In many accounts, the Bible say that the Holy Spirit comes upon a certain person, but in no account has it ever mention disorder.

1 Chronicles 12:18-22 talks about how Amassai did good in the sight of the Lord and helped David day by day, the Holy Spirit had an effect on his character.




"Christianity Today"


· In Acts 2:1-15, the Holy Spirit came upon the apostles and they spoke different tongues (languages) and they all understood each other. Everyone was in one accord. Mind you in verse 15, Peter who was also received the Holy Spirit was able to control himself, he had sense to explain to the outsiders what was happening.


· In Judges 3:10-14, the Holy Spirit came upon Othniel, who judged Israel and with the help of the Lord, the king of Mesopotamia was delivered into his hand.


· In Acts 2: 17-22, the Bible tells us that in these last days that the Holy Spirit will be poured upon us and we will prophesy, dream and have visions…


On no biblical account, does it ever say that the Holy Spirit will cause us to speak things that we do not understand or others to understand. On the contrary, the Holy Spirit is there to teach us and help us spread the gospel of Jesus Christ by giving us the gift of prophecy. Talking about gifts, let’s examine the characters of one who has the Holy Spirit.


How is it like to have the Holy Spirit?

I cannot say that I have the Holy Spirit because I know that I do not possess all of the characters listed below.

In Galatians 5:22-26, the bible says “the FRUIT of the spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, 23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. 24 And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts. 25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. 26 Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another.” As you can see, it says the FRUIT, not the fruits. I want to stress that out because it is a single fruit; that means if you do not have all of these characters, the Holy Spirit does not dwell in you.


In 1 Corinthians 12:1-10, 1. Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I would not have you ignorant. 2. Ye know that ye were Gentiles, carried away unto these dumb idols, even as ye were led. 3. Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed: and that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost. 4Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. 5And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord.6And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God which worketh all in all. 7But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal. 8For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit; 9To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit; 10To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues:”
Now I know that many people tend to mistake the meaning of verse 10 by saying that the spirit allow them to speak in tongues. The instance that the bible is implying tongue is to say idiom, language, speech.

Where does the idea of empty talk come from? Is it biblical?

I would like for us to dig as deep in the bible as possible to show an instance in the bible where the Holy Spirit came upon someone and that person started uttering gibberish or empty talk. In the latter chapters of first letter of Paul to the Corinthians, he talks more about speaking in tongues but specifically in 1Corinthians 14: 21, it says “With men of other tongues and other lips I will speak to this people, And yet, for all that, they will not hear Me.” We can clearly see an indication that the tongue being spoken about here is the one of idiom.

I would love for us that love the Lord to not be confused of the Holy Spirit because He is of order and Paul understood that. If we look in the latter verses of chapter 14, we will understand that there should be order in the house of the Lord and we will also see the meaning of the tongue that the bible talks about.

Do not be deceived brothers and sisters, examine the word of God and commune with the Holy Spirit so we do not lose our souls.

Atheism: a precusor to Papal Revival

And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast. Revelation 13:3

After the fall of Papal Rome's power over the nations in 1798, Satan's master plan of replacing the Roman darkness over the people had already been in place. That plan was the introduction of mainstream atheism.

The term athéisme was coined in France in the sixteenth century. Atheists French philosophers were major advocates of it. The "French Revolution of 1789 catapulted atheistic thought into political notability in some Western countries and opened the way for the nineteenth century movements of Rationalism, Freethought, and Liberalism."

The Roman Church in the Middle ages prohibited the masses from reading the Word of God and because of that, gross spiritual darkness prevailed in society. Anyone who opposed the church's teachings were labeled heretics.

Atheism/Secularism discourages and attacks the Bible so that it would be eliminated. In communist societies, religion is repressed. However, in western secular societies the Bible is kicked out of schools, public places and even the churches (people no longer read the Bible). Higher criticism in Christian Universities destroy faith in the Bible, causing the public to no longer hold it as the infallible Word of God. Thus the same purpose of blinding the masses in every society, fulfilled.

The beast that comes up out of the abyss will make war with them...............the street of the great city which mystically is called Sodom and Egypt, where also their Lord was crucified.
Revelation 11:7

The Protestant Reformation sought to bring light to the world by encouraging Bible reading and for a while, the people started reading for themselves which then diminished the power of the Roman Church. But because of the great work that atheism/secular humanism has done in attacking the Bible, the world is now ripe for the same darkness of the middle ages. And as we can see Rome is once again rising to regain its lost dominion over the nations.

Satan has been using atheism/secular humanism to destroy faith in the Word of God and undo the works of the Protestant reformation to prepare the way for the revival of the Roman power. Where Spiritual Darkness abide, Rome rises.

The beast, which you saw, once was, now is not, and yet will come up out of the Abyss and go to its destruction. The inhabitants of the earth whose names have not been written in the book of life from the creation of the world will be astonished when they see the beast, because it once was, now is not, and yet will come.  Revelation 17:8

Evolution : The faith of atheism




Man is a religious being. Whether or not he accepts a supreme being as the ultimate arbiter of truth, he will put his faith in someone or something. Here comes the theory of evolution to provide the atheist/agnostic that which was lacking.

Evolution, the myth that all living creatures share a common ancestor, is taken by the atheist and agnostic as gospel truth. The atheist ignore the fact that evolution cannot be proven. He claims that this theory has enlightened humanity while the scripture have brought ignorance and superstition. He also claims that man has evolved from the brainwashing of ignorant men of the past. What the atheist is blind to is the fact that he is suffering from the same brainwashing that he accuses others of. For as in the past, the Priests of Religion were preaching to the masses, and now it is the priests of evolution that are preaching the masses.

Not too long ago the church was the center of learning, now the university is the cathedral of the modern man. He has advanced technologically but is still a sheep-like being, following the spirit of the age. In the past, the spirit of the age was to be a religious man, but now the fad is the scientific minded man. To speak out  against organized religion was an act punishable by death, but now to speak out against Scientism is career suicide for one holding a certain position. So by now, you may be wondering how evolution is a faith when the scientists have been preaching for years that it is a fact? What most people may be unaware of is that all religious teachings claim that their belief is fact and evolution is no different in that case. So let's get right into it.

A man named Darwin went to an expedition and there he wrote down his revelation regarding the origin of species, a bible so-to-speak of the evolutionist movement. After he came back from his trip of enlightenment, he went out to preach his discoveries to others and gained disciples. His disciples went on to spread the new teaching to the public through the medium of universities (congregation of students) thus the beginning of a global faith movement. It is a faith movement because just like the claims of religions, the claims of evolution cannot be proven. No human being was there to see the first cells transformation in the primordial ocean, no human being was there to see how the animals came from the ocean to  become land creatures, the monkey evolving over millions of years into a Homo sapiens and so forth. No one was there to see how speech originated. So all of these claims are all simply in the Darwinian Priest imagination of how things may have come into being. But like most true believer of any faith system, the devotee of evolution will see in nature the evidences for his belief, and currently have a monopoly on true science which is done through observation and testing of hypothesis.

Darwinian faith has gained more exposures than other faith based belief.

What is faith you may ask? Well faith is the belief in things have not seen. And we have already established that no one has ever seen the process of macro evolution, therefore to believe in such thing is only done by faith. And like Hitler say, if you repeat a lie often enough people will believe it as true-it is exactly what has happened in western society! The lies of evolution have been repeated so much by so called wise men (the preachers of evolution, also called the college professors) that the gullible mind has taken it uncritically as truth.

In their mind, the followers of evolution think that there is no way honorable scientists would be capable of promulgating such a myth as evolution. The student ignores the fact that like any priestly hierarchy, the preacher will always follow the dictates of his institution's belief.
 
When asking the typical follower of Darwinism questions such as: why does he believe evolution is true? he will most likely reply that it is true because the evidence shows it is; then if you ask "how do you know the evidences are true or really mean what they say they are?", this reply will always be religious in nature, because the Priest a.k.a. the scientist says it is. No different than average church goer.

And the last point is that the atheist claim that believing in evolution does not have any eternal implication because it is not asking one to believe in any god, heaven or hell. But my friends, believing in evolution has everything to do with eternal things. For we already establish that the teaching  of evolution is a religious teaching masquerading as science. Since evolution by default imply that there is no personal god, if there is one at all it is making eternal claims. It is making eternal claims because it is saying that we came from nothing and will go back into nothing, but like all the other faith based systems in the world none of them can be true but all of them can't be right.

So if one chooses to follow the prophets of Darwinism and it turns out that Christianity is true, then one has made an eternal decision. So, yes! evolution is a faith-based system. It is having faith in the teaching of the 19th century Prophet Darwin and his disciples.

Picture of a Prophet

John the Baptist preparing the way of the Lord.
By Leonard Ravenhill

"The prophet in his day is fully accepted of God and totally rejected by men"
  
Years ago, Dr. Gregory Mantle was right when he said, "No man can be fully accepted until he is totally rejected." The prophet of the Lord is aware of both of these experiences. They are his "brand name."
      The group, challenged by the prophet because they are smug and comfortably insulated from a perishing world in their warm but untested theology, is not likely to vote him "Man of the year" when he refers to them as habituates of the synagogue of Satan!
      The prophet comes to set up that which is upset. His work is to call into line those who are out of line! He is unpopular because he opposes the popular in morality and spirituality. In a day of faceless politicians and voiceless preachers, there is not a more urgent national need than that we cry to God for a prophet! The function of the prophet, as Austin-Sparks once said, "has almost always been that of recovery."
      The prophet is God's detective seeking for a lost treasure. The degree of his effectiveness is determined by his measure of unpopularity. Compromise is not known to him.
      He has no price tags.
      He is totally "otherworldly."
      He is unquestionably controversial and unpardonably hostile.
      He marches to another drummer!
      He breathes the rarefied air of inspiration.
      He is a "seer" who comes to lead the blind.
      He lives in the heights of God and comes into the valley with a "thus saith the Lord."
      He shares some of the foreknowledge of God and so is aware of impending judgment.
      He lives in "splendid isolation."
      He is forthright and outright, but he claims no birthright.
      His message is "repent, be reconciled to God or else...!"
      His prophecies are parried.
      His truth brings torment, but his voice is never void.
      He is the villain of today and the hero of tomorrow.
      He is excommunicated while alive and exalted when dead!
      He is dishonored with epithets when breathing and honored with epitaphs when dead.
      He is a schoolmaster to bring us to Christ, but few "make the grade" in his class.
      He is friendless while living and famous when dead.
      He is against the establishment in ministry; then he is established as a saint by posterity.
      He eats daily the bread of affliction while he ministers, but he feeds the Bread of
       Life to those who listen.
      He walks before men for days but has walked before God for years.
      He is a scourge to the nation before he is scourged by the nation.
      He announces, pronounces, and denounces!
      He has a heart like a volcano and his words are as fire.
      He talks to men about God.
      He carries the lamp of truth amongst heretics while he is lampooned by men.
      He faces God before he faces men, but he is self-effacing.
      He hides with God in the secret place, but he has nothing to hide in the marketplace.
      He is naturally sensitive but supernaturally spiritual.
      He has passion, purpose and pugnacity.
      He is ordained of God but disdained by men.
     
Let him be as plain as John the Baptist.
      Let him for a season be a voice crying in the wilderness of modern theology and
       stagnant "churchianity."
      Let him be as selfless as Paul the apostle.
      Let him, too, say and live, "This ONE thing I do."
      Let him reject ecclesiastical favors.
      Let him be self-abasing, nonself-seeking, nonself-projecting, nonself- righteous,
       nonself-glorying, nonself-promoting.
      Let him say nothing that will draw men to himself but only that which will move
       men to God.
      Let him come daily from the throne room of a holy God, the place where he has
       received the order of the day.
      Let him, under God, unstop the ears of the millions who are deaf through the
       clatter of shekels milked from this hour of material mesmerism.
      Let him cry with a voice this century has not heard because he has seen a vision
       no man in this century has seen. God send us this Moses to lead us from the
       wilderness of crass materialism, where the rattlesnakes of lust bite us and where
       enlightened men, totally blind spiritually, lead us to an ever-nearing Armageddon.

The western Mind and Spiritual Darkness

The Western Mind and Spiritual Darkness


The western mind has adapted to the evolutionary belief being taught in the school. For this reason it has become blind to the spiritual darkness being introduced to it  in avenues such as yoga and the martial arts.

The theory of Evolution has permeated all aspects of western teachings.The theory of evolution ,the idea that all living things evolved from a common ancestor is the root of western understanding. That theory by default deny the existence of the supernatural and is thus an excellent tool in the hands of a Great Deceiver like Satan to manifest himself in the open while at the same time remaining hidden.


Martial Arts
Ignorance of the supernatural.While the western man see himself as being enlightened he is actually in deep darkness concerning spiritual things.This ignorance of the supernatural is not only in the general societies(the world), but even in the Church some people don't really belie
ve in the existence of satan as a real being , but see him as a personification of evil.Since satan  is not real therefore we have no fear of baptizing anything  into Christianity and thus the result has been staggering.Things such as Rap and Rock and Roll  and Yoga have now become Christian Rap, Rock and Yoga  .

Such infiltrations are strong evidence of how Satan operates according   2 Cor 11:13,14."For such men are false apostles, deceitful workers, disguising themselves as apostles of Christ. 14No wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light."


Yoga
The rise of Spiritism. As a result of both the Church and the western being blinded the West is now succumbing to even greater satanic influences to such practices such Yoga, which is a Hindu Spiritual practice.
Yoga  are the physical, mental, and spiritual practices or disciplines that aim to transform body and mi[1] in Hinduism, Buddhism (including Vajrayana and Tibetan Buddhism[2][3][4]) and Jainism
nd. The term denotes a variety of schools, practices and goals
  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yoga

By taking part of such practices regardless of whether one is aware or not we are inviting demonic spirits to take control over us . Satanic practices cannot be separated from their roots. Satan is very cunning and has the ability to repackage his lies to every society according to their world view. So in a western world which does not belief in his existence he bring spiritual practices such as Yoga under the guise of only a physical exercises that will lead to greater self realization. Only if we would open our Bible we would quickly realize in the very beginning  in Genesis ch. 3:4,5.
 The serpent said to the woman, "You surely will not die! 5"For God knows that in the day you eat from it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil."

So beloved let us open our eyes in the ways of God so we may see through the works of darkness and not be caught in the snares that the Devil has laid for us. Let us not follow our cultural dictates but we should use the scripture to test whether or not what we are taking part are the work of darkness or not.
