Ang okultismo simbahan

Ang espiritu ng bagong panahon na naghahari sa mundo ngayon ay nakaapekto at nadungisan ang maraming simbahan. Ngunit paano ito mangyayari? Paanong ang Iglesia na nakaupo kay Jesu-Cristo; the Word and is appointed to represent and bring the Kingdom of God on this earth, has allowed this new age spirit in the Church? What has caused the church to become an occult church? Who is responsible for allowing this to happen? How did the holy church of Jesus Christ become an occult church of the devil that walks after his will?

How did the church become an occult church?

The church has become an occult church through a lack of knowledge of God’s Word and rebellion against God’s Word. Because of these things, many believers have gone their own way and have compromised with the world and its pagan religions and philosophies.

The church has compromised with the world and throughout the ages, the church has adopted pagan rituals and belief systems and applied them into the church, kaya nga, according to the church, they could win the Gentiles for Jesus Christ. But this is a lie of the devil, which the church has believed and still believes.

Because in today’s world many churches still compromise with the world and adopt and apply the carnal methods, mga prinsipyo, and strategies of the world in the church, to attract unbelievers, especially young people and win them for Jesus Christ.

If you are unspiritual, you will believe this lie and will consider it a good method.

Ngunit a ipinanganak na muli na mananampalataya, na lumalakad ayon sa Espiritu, knows that these carnal methods will have no effect. Dahil, how can you win people for the Kingdom of God with the methods and strategies of the devil, sino ang pinuno ng mundong ito? You can’t!

A person can’t be won for the Kingdom of God, by applying carnal methods and use the strategies of man. A person can only be won through Jesus Christ.

Ang Banal na Espiritu, sino ang nananahan sa bagong nilikha, is the only One, who convicts a person of sin. And through the conviction of sin, a person is able magsisi. Because how else can a person repent if the person doesn’t see his/her sinful state and his/her sins?

That’s why it’s necessary that believers become born again, mamatay sa laman and live after the Spirit and do the words of God. Because we can’t live without the Word and the Holy Spirit.

God’s people are destroyed for lack of knowledge

One of the causes, why a church has become influenced and affected by this new age spirit and has become an occult church, is through a lack of knowledge of God’s Word and rebellion against His Word.

Sabi ng Diyos sa Kanyang Salita, that His people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Because of the fact that God’s people don’t know God’s will and have tinanggihan ang Kanyang Salita, Ang kanyang mga tao ay nawasak.

Ang aking bayan ay nawasak dahil sa kakulangan ng kaalaman: sapagka't iyong itinakuwil ang kaalaman, Tatanggihan din kita, that thou shalt be no priest to me: yamang iyong nilimot ang kautusan ng iyong Dios, Makakalimutan ko rin ang iyong mga anak. (Hos 4:6)

This is exactly what has happened in the church. People have rejected the Word of God and have entered self-chosen paths. The people think, they know it all better than God and have created their own faith and belief system in the church and have made their own rules, based on their feelings, mga emosyon, mga natuklasan, Mga karanasan, mga paghahayag, atbp. (Basahin mo rin: The church built on the opinion of people).

They remain carnal and walk after the flesh in darkness and are spiritually asleep. Dahil sa katotohanan, that they are asleep they have not guarded the spiritual gates of the church and have allowed the spirit of this world, kasama na ang espiritu ng bagong edad, para pumasok.

Many believers know the Bible by heart, but that doesn’t prove anything. Maraming mananampalataya, who go to church and know the whole Bible by heart and can quote every scripture of the Bible, without coming to the experiential knowledge of the Truth.

They know the Bible by the top of their head, but they actually don’t believe in the Bible, and therefore they don’t obey the words of God and don’t apply the words of the Bible into their lives.

Although they know the written Bible, they don’t know the living Word.

Iyon ay dahil, they are still carnal, hindi espirituwal, and walk after the flesh in the visible realm. They are led by their feelings and emotions and what their senses perceive. They fill themselves with the wisdom and knowledge of the world and believe in it and walk after the wisdom and knowledge of the world.

Although they visit a church and maybe even have a task in the church, they are not born again in the spirit and still have an unrepented heart. Their spirit is dead and their flesh reigns as king in their lives. There is no total surrender and devotion to Jesus Christ in every area of their lives, and therefore they live like the world.

Dahil sa katotohanan, that they are unspiritual and live like the world, they are also being controlled by the spirit of this world, kasama na ang espiritu ng bagong edad, and participate in the works of darkness.

They look and search for alternative medicine, have a huge interest in nutrition and supplements, tulad na lamang ng mundo. They go along with the trends of this world and look for pleasures, enjoyments, and relaxation in fellowshipping, social activities, libangan, wellness centers, yoga, martial arts, and other eastern sports, which derive from eastern religions and philosophies.

They lead the same life as those, na nabubuhay nang walang Diyos. There is hardly any difference anymore between believers and unbelievers.

Dahil sa katotohanan, that many believers have become involved with the (okulto) world and the kingdom of darkness, the kingdom of darkness has entered the church (Basahin mo rin: ‘Ang pandaigdigang simbahan ay inihahanda para sa anticristo‘ at ‘Ang trono ni satanas‘).

Former occultists converted to Christianity

Another reason, why the church has become occult and walk in the ways of the occult, are the doctrines of former occultists (former witches, Mga Satanista, mga salamangkero, mga mangkukulam, Sikhs, brahmans, gamot lalaki, atbp.), who converted to Christianity. Instead of that the church has discipled them and they put away all their occult knowledge, karunungan, mga pamamaraan, mga diskarte, at mga formula, the church has listened to all their occult experiences and revelation and has allowed them to bring their knowledge and wisdom of the (okulto) spiritual world into the church and teach the believers in the unseen.

The church has allowed it, because many believers have a huge interest in new things and in the supernatural realm. They love to listen to supernatural stories, Mga karanasan, and revelations from former occultists, who have moved in the occult supernatural realm.

Sa halip, that born again believers are taught and led by the Word and the Holy Spirit, they are taught by these former occultists.

They ask these former occultists for council and advice about the spiritual realm and get all psyched up.

And so the majority of believers, who are unspiritual and spiritually blind, get their insights in the espirituwal na kaharian, by what these former occultists say and are led by their words, which are based upon their supernatural experiences and revelations.

They go to seminars and conferences and are fed with all this information, that derives from the kingdom of darkness.

Instead of the Word, these former occultists will inform the believers about the supernatural things of the spiritual realm. They will build their faith, karunungan, kaalaman, mga teorya, mga pamamaraan, and strategies upon their supernatural experiences and revelations.

But these former workers of darkness were sons of the devil and walked in darkness. They walked in the lies of the devil.

They applied knowledge, karunungan, mga pamamaraan, strategies and used formulas, that derived from revelations and the words of evil spirits. They were inspired by the realm of darkness and were workers for the kingdom of darkness.

They were not born again in Christ, but their spirit was dead. They were controlled by the power of death and entered the spiritual realm out of their flesh (kapangyarihan ng kaluluwa) by using all kinds of natural means, mga pamamaraan, mga technics, and natural resources.

The carnal church has no spiritual discernment

Dahil sa katotohanan, that the carnal church is unspiritual and has no insight in the spiritual realm and therefore doesn’t discern the spirits, the church has listened to — and has been led by former occultists and their supernatural knowledge and experiences.

These former occultists have made the invisible realm visible to the church. And so the church has opened the spiritual gates of the church for occult information, that derives from the kingdom of darkness and is based upon occult revelation and experiences.

The church has listened to this occult information and now moves on the basis of this occult knowledge in the spiritual realm.

Ang church doesn’t see it herself but has developed and built her faith on the basis of the information, Mga Insight, Mga karanasan, and revelations of former occultists. And so the church has become affected and defiled by the occult.

The result of an occult church

The result of an occult church is that the believers of an occult church remain carnal and keep living after their feelings, mga emosyon, mga pandama, atbp.. They are indifferent towards sin, and accept and tolerate sin and persevere in sin. They have no relationship with Jesus; the Word or they are lukewarm in their relationship with Jesus. Kaya nga, they don’t study the Bible and don’t pray, and don’t speak in tongues in their daily lives.

The believers of an occult church exalt and worship (sikat na sikat)mga pinuno, and build their faith upon feelings, and the words, Mga Karanasan sa Supernatural, mga paghahayag, and the faith of others.

These believers have a huge interest in books about demonic powers, ang kaharian ng kadiliman, carnal methods, Mga Pamamaraan, and strategies for (demonic) paglaya, pagpapagaling, prophesying, Supernatural na pagpapakita, mga paghahayag, atbp.. and always look for the next new thing and the next great feeling.

Their interest in the things of the supernatural realm and personal supernatural manifestations and revelations is greater than their interest in the Word of God and walking after Ang kalooban ng Diyos.

They are not interested in dying to self and develop a Godly character and live a sanctified life.

They want to remain the matandang makamundong tao, who wants to hear supernatural new things all the time, and gain new head knowledge, enter new levels, learn new methods, Mga Pamamaraan, mga diskarte, formulas to experience supernatural manifestations and revelation.

Pero muli, this is not something new. Because when Jesus walked upon this earth and the people of God were still carnal and unspiritual, they constantly tempted and asked Jesus for signs and wonders. While the signs, mga himala, and wonders followed Jesus all the time (Basahin mo rin: Pagsunod kay Jesus para sa mga tanda at kababalaghan).

The fruit in the lives of believers,
who enter the spiritual realm out of the flesh

Dahil sa katotohanan, that most believers are not born again or keep living after the flesh, but want to see, enter and experience the spiritual realm, many believers have opened themselves for the occult and have allowed evil spirits to enter their lives.

They don’t experience the fruit of the spirit, they don’t experience kagalakan, kapayapaan, at buhay, but they are worried, DECKEDED, hindi maligaya, hindi nasisiyahan, Overstrained, nalulumbay, and experience insomnia, pagkabalisa, takot na takot, panic attacks, stress na stress, atbp.. That’s because they entered the spiritual realm out of their flesh on the basis of occult information, mga pamamaraan, mga technics, at mga diskarte

Sa Mga Gawa 19:19, we read about those, who practiced magical arts and nagsisi na. Their actions followed their repentance, because they immediately destroyed all their valuable books with occult wisdom, kaalaman, mga pamamaraan, at mga diskarte.

Sa kanilang mga kilos, they said farewell to their former life, including all of their knowledge, karunungan, mga pamamaraan, at mga diskarte.

They wholeheartedly repented and gave their lives to Jesus Christ and Sinundan siya.

When you repent of your sin and your sinful nature, it means that you have chosen to sundin si Jesus and that you do not walk according to your former life anymore.

You have given up everything for Jesus. Your former life is over and has no value, kasi ang laman mo (lumang buhay) has been crucified with Jesus Christ and buried through the binyag sa tubig. Ang iyong espiritu, sino ba ang patay, has become alive.

In the spirit, Ikaw ay nakaupo kay Jesucristo in the Heavenly Places and that’s why you should not apply carnal methods and strategies and use natural means anymore.

Ngayon na, that you have a new position in Jesus Christ, you ought to walk in this new dominion bilang anak ng Diyos.
