SPIRITUAL WARFARE N°1
This teaching is the 1st part in a series of eleven teachings, and will be incomplete if read without the others.
INTRODUCTION
Beloved in the Lord, I thank Christ Jesus our Lord and Master, who has chosen me, because He counted me faithful, appointing me apostle in these end times, entrusting to me the task to revive His people, and to turn the hearts of the true Children of God who were scattered abroad to the heavenly Father, before the sound of the trumpet.
It pleased God, the Father, through His Son Jesus Christ, to reveal to me His word, so that you and I should return to the truth, to the undiluted Gospel, just as our first brethren lived it. I therefore bless the Lord who allowed me not only to bring His people back to the truth, but also to condemn those who felt at ease in the false gospel and pretended to be ignorant; in order to fulfill the prophecy of the Lord in Malachi 3:18. And then shall you return and discern between the righteous and the wicked, between those who serve God and those who do not serve Him.
Now that you have had sufficient teaching so as to become Children of God rooted on the sound doctrine of our Lord Jesus Christ, I can now without much reserve enlighten your mind about spiritual warfare, in which we are all committed.
What is spiritual warfare? Spiritual warfare, is the life that we, Children of God, saved by grace, and covered by the wonderful blood of the Lord Jesus Christ, the only true Lord, are called to live in this foreign world, in the midst of wolves, serpents and scorpions that satan and all his agents represent. Therefore, spiritual warfare is not something that a child of God can escape, nor is it a war that we can avoid, by seeking peace with satan for instance. We can never make peace with satan.
Satan is not the God of peace, instead he is the god of war. Satan has missed heaven, and hell is reserved for him. His unique mission now is to bring everybody or at least a greater number to perish with him in hell. He has nothing to lose in this warfare, but everything to gain, and that is his only preoccupation, while waiting for the day the Lord will throw him into the eternal lake of fire, which burns forever.
Know for certain that every child of God, whether he likes it or not, is involved in this warfare. This implies that if you fight against satan, he will fight against you. If you do not fight against him, he will still fight against you. Therefore, whether or not you fight, you will be fought.
What to do then? Be equipped for warfare and get ready to fight. And I believe that all the previous teachings I gave you, are sufficient enough to equip you for a victorious warfare against satan, because these teachings have awakened your spirit in regard to the apostasy and the seduction of the end times, and brought you back to the doctrine of Christ which is the truth, that is, the Bible just as it was written and sealed by the Holy-Spirit. For the only safe ground to stand on and successfully wrestle against satan, is the Truth.
In this teaching, I will study with you how to keep yourselves from the attacks of satan and his agents, and how to avoid being victims of their arrows every time; and this level of warfare involves everybody. We shall equally see how to victoriously fight in the camp of the enemy, and that is what I have chosen to call real spiritual warfare.
Understand beloved brethren that it is not by chance that this teaching on spiritual warfare comes at the end. The reason for which this teaching comes after the others, is that real spiritual warfare is neither reserved for pagans, nor for ignorant Christians, nor for those who are at ease in false doctrine, for satan is a more serious opponent than we think.
Satan is a terrible enemy, a sufficiently strong opponent. Before him, our strength is the Truth. Therefore, true spiritual warfare must never be taken lightly, and in no case should it be the play ground of young converts. True spiritual warfare is for those rooted on the Rock, for those who have Jesus Christ, and who really have Him. True spiritual warfare is for those who live in the Truth. This explains why the Lord has chosen to begin with all the teachings that would get us out of religion and false doctrine.
For satan to successfully attack us, he often needs to find some weaknesses in our spiritual lives, that is, in our walk with God. He is therefore steadfastly looking for those weaknesses. And when he doesn't find any, he does all he can to create one, by trapping us in all possible ways.
Satan who knows God's word, knows that as long as we do not violate God's law, it will be very difficult for him to get us. For that reason, he assembles all his army to project hundreds of thousand of incantations against us each day, with the aim of causing us to sin, or inducing us into some errors, so that some doors might be opened for them in our lives. These openings that give them access into our lives, are those we generally call opened doors.
I - OPEN DOORS
The elements that can serve as open doors to satan are numerous, and go from sin to persons, including animals, professions, and objects. The list of these elements is long, but I will attempt to enumerate a greater part of them.
I will regroup the open doors into two categories: Doors opened by us, that is, those that depend on us and that we are entirely responsible for, and the other open doors, those over which we hardly have control.
Doors opened by us
Doors opened by us, are those that are dependent on us and that we have responsibility over; they are those that we can avoid, they are things over which we have control.
Sin
I prefer not to talk of sins, but of sin, because what ever name sin might take, it gives access to satan over our lives. Even as it is true that the wideness of the door opened depend on the sin committed, we need to understand that even the sins that only give little access to satan must be avoided.
For sins that give greater access to satan, we can name the following:
Witchcraft in all its form, magic, occultism, sects, murder including voluntary abortion, suicide attempts, murder attempts including abortion attempts, homosexuality, adultery, fornication, uncleanliness and all other forms of impurity and immorality, rape, theft, hatred, grudge, unforgiveness, and wickedness. All these sins open wide doors to demons and give greater access to satan over our lives.
Sorcery in all its forms includes active sorcery, passive sorcery, and everything that is related to sorcery. By active sorcery, I mean the practice of witchcraft itself, and all the forms of initiation into sorcery, consultation of the dead, yoga, and all other forms of satanic meditations and relaxations. Passive sorcery itself entails all indirect forms of witchcraft practices such as visitation made to witch doctors, consultation of diviners and other soothsayers, consultation of spiritists to cause the dead to speak, reading of horoscopes, numerology, drawing of cards, martial arts practice, etc.
All forms of sorcery, magic and occultism, put those who practice them in direct contact with the occult world, and so establish pacts with the world of darkness whether you like it or not.
Immorality and all forms of impurity and debauchery embody all other sins and sexual filths not mentioned above. Note that the only sexual intercourse approved by God, that is, which can on no account serve as open doors, is the one practiced in a legalized marriage. But do not forget that even in a legalized marriage, sexual intercourse wrongly practiced can constitute open doors, especially when it becomes purely animal practices.
It must be noted that a normal sexual intercourse in the sight of God is a sexual intercourse between two persons of opposite sex. Also understand that for sexual intercourse between two persons of opposite sex to be called normal, the intercourse must actually be sexual as its name indicates. That is, a contact between two sexes, or more clearly, a contact between two genital organs.
Therefore, a contact between a sex and another thing, or between a sex and another part of the body, is not acceptable in the sight of God as sexual intercourse. All these forms of intercourses are abnormal, that is, they are sinful, even when practiced in marriage. Henceforth, married persons can escape open doors due to sexual sins only if they honour God each time in their sexual relationship, by avoiding all the dishonourable practices, abominable and purely animal practices into which many plunge themselves at times. Marriage is not a green light to madness. Every deviation is a sin before God and constitutes open doors to satan.
It was not a mistake on the part of God to make a man and a woman with two different sexes. He did not also make a mistake by choosing to give different names to different parts of the body. The sex would therefore not take the name of another part of the body, and no part of the body would take the name of sex, and should not be mistaken for sex.
Persons
The concept of "persons" as open doors brings us back to the teaching on separation which we have studied several times in the past. In this teaching, we shall come back again to this subject, for the sake of those who did not follow this teaching in the past, and even for those who had already followed it, so that those who want to obey Christ and be free in Him, understand what the Lord expects from them. Know that all those who are not in the camp of Jesus Christ, are still in the camp of satan, and by so doing, constitute open doors for us. Satan can use them at will to reach us, since they are under his control, and he can easily manipulate them.
Animals
So often, satan and his agents use pets, such as dogs, cats, etc. to reach us. Do not be surprised, therefore, that illnesses such as asthma and other animal transmitted diseases are quite common in the western world, where these animals are worshipped. We need to get rid of such animals.
Even animals that we rear for consumption such as fowls, goats, pigs, and other animals kept for eating could be exploited by agents of satan to harm us. But since the usefulness of these animals is established, we should keep them. We just have to make sure that we cover these animals by the blood of Jesus.
Professions
There are professions that constitute large open doors to satan, and all those who exercise them are very much exposed to satanic spirits. Children of God must not exercise such professions. Amongst them we can cite the following:
Mortuary keepers, those who wash the dead, those who work with corpses, those practicing archaeology, veterinary medicine, grooming of dogs, psychology, psychiatry, those who take care of handicaps and mentally ill patients, artistic professions, and all those who work in places with heavy satanic concentration such as cemeteries, night clubs, casinos, bars, cinemas, operas, theatres, dancing clubs, beauty saloons, etc.
Amongst the beauty saloons we can cite the following: Hairdressing saloons, manicurist, chiropodist, physiotherapy, acupuncture, plastic surgery, hair removal, make-ups, tanning, tattooing, piercing, etc. Not only should Children of God not work in these places, they should not even frequent them.
Here are other jobs which Children of God should not exercise: The jobs of informants, traitors, espionage and counter-espionage, secret services, intelligence services, etc. If you believe to be a child of God, know that you should not live on people's blood. Spending time betraying people for a wage, knowing what will happen to those people, it's sucking their blood. It is utmost wickedness. God will not forgive you for this, if you remain in that job. You cannot abide in wickedness and go to Heaven. You are heading towards Hell.
Children of God must avoid all jobs which emanate from wickedness, which involve wickedness, or which lead to wickedness. It is case for instance of those who tow people's cars away, who put parking tickets on cars, etc. You must avoid all the jobs which cause you to be wicked.
There are also other professions which constitute open doors to satan, but which Children of God can exercise, while being careful and conscious of the warfare around them. We can enumerate amongst others: People who work in nursing homes, those working in hospitals, carpenters who fabricate coffins, those who dig graves, and all those involved in activities connected to the dead. Those people are constantly exposed to the spirits of the dead. If they are Christians, they must pray every time to cancel the incantations they receive.
I must make some precisions on the fact that, working for handicapped and mentally ill patients constitute an open door. Many of the so-called handicapped and mentally ill patients are simply demon sorcerers, who wilfully come in that state, so as to trap those who by lack of discernment take care of them. And this has become one of the biggest tricks of satan nowadays. Satan has sent into the world many of his agents, who are born handicaps, and totally dependent, to distract the world and possess all the ignorant persons who do not have God and are without Divine protection, and who in their naivety believe that these demons are normal human beings who simply need help. Do not therefore fall in the trap of sentiments.
Today big hospitals are reserved for them, and thousands of doctors, nurses and other health care assistants look after them, with huge budgets at their disposal. With this, satan laughs at the world.
It is the same thing for nursing homes. Amongst these old persons that are found in nursing homes, there are many sorcerers, who by their tricks use their state as a trap to ruin those who take care of them. It is the same thing with hospitals. Children of God working in these places, must be very careful, and make sure they constantly cover themselves with the blood of Jesus.
Objects
Many objects which we cling on to, which are either gifts or bought by us, constitute large open doors to satan in our lives and our houses. Amongst them we can cite the following:
Objects of sorcery
Sects books; books that teach on practices such as "self control" or "development of strong internal force"; books teaching on the different forms of meditation; yoga books; sect objects; objects received from sorcerers, from witch doctors; and traditional healers (powders, liquids, gris-gris, calabashes, mirrors, pieces of cloth, tree barks, rings and other jewels of incantations, talismans, cowries, ribbons to wear and all other objects to place in specific places, rosaries, holy water, crosses and other esoteric objects, objects of charms and bewitchment, all the objects that false churches give to their members to keep in their houses for protection purposes etc.) All these things that pastors and priest give you such as the so-called holy water, anointing oil, pieces of clothes and others, are in fact satanic objects that act as open doors to satan in your houses. Know very well that true protection comes only from Jesus Christ, and from Jesus Christ alone. And the Lord does not need to pass through those things to protect or defend you.
Mirrors also constitute some of the objects that satanists often use. So therefore do not take the habit of mirroring yourself just any where. And when you happen to mirror yourself in the workshop of a tailor or a seamstress for example, make sure you cover yourself with the blood of Jesus. Also cover every mirror that you buy in the market with the blood of Jesus.
Objects of idolatry
Ashes of a dead person, photos or videos of corpses, other objects of ceremony to the dead and ancestors; some objects that belonged to the dead and need to be passed on from one generation to another, candles, incense and other fetishes objects which people become attached to without any tangible reason, constitute great open doors to satan. On the other hand, simple candles used for lighting when there is no electricity does not constitute open doors. You just have to cover them with the blood of Jesus. There are some satanic sects in which members always eat with candles on. The use of candles in such cases is purely satanic, it has nothing to do with simple candles used for lighting.
Objects of entertainment
Television, Internet (for those who use them to contemplate abominations), worldly films, unhealthy films, unhealthy books, worldly music, Techno music, Rock, and Rap even when called Christian's, pornographic magazines and other magazines containing bizarre images, all these ugly infant games, dolls, video games, cartoons, and other entertainments for children with human or animal figurines, shows etc. constitute terrible open doors to satan. The children of God should use the time of distraction to read their Bibles, to intercede, and to sing hymns unto the Lord.
Stolen objects
Flee from theft! Even if we can say that it is a sin as the others, the fact remains that it is among the sins which cause more problems. Know that theft is a double sin: Theft itself, and wickedness. When you steal something from somebody, you deprive this person of his thing, you leave the person in distress, in suffering, and in big problems. And you cause this person to curse you, and since she curses you with a good reason, you do not escape from these curses. In this, theft constitutes a great open door to satan, so are the stolen objects.
There is a serious problem to be resolved with regard to stolen objects. It's about knowing what to do with them. Hence the confusion around the notion of restitution which, when it is wrongly interpreted, creates more problems than it resolves. It is therefore important for us to understand what the Bible says about restitution.
May the grace of the Lord Jesus be with you all! Amen!
