The gods of the Philistines Pt.2

ISAIAH 44:14-17

     14   He heweth him down cedars, and taketh the cypress and the oak, which he strengtheneth for himself among the trees of the forest: he planteth an ash, and the rain doth nourish it. (Industry – growing trees for the purpose of manufacturing)

     15   Then shall it be for a man to burn (Energy production – like the oil and gas industries of today): for he will take thereof, and warm himself; yea, he kindleth it, and baketh bread (Food production); yea, he maketh a god, and worshippeth it; he maketh it a graven image, and falleth down thereto.

*Notice – from manufacturing all the way to making gods and worshiping them.

     16   He burneth part thereof in the fire; with part thereof he eateth flesh; he roasteth roast, and is satisfied: yea, he warmeth himself, and saith, Aha, I am warm, I have seen the fire: (Industry and manufacturing has produce the comforts of warmth and roast dinners to the satisfaction of the body but not yet the soul)

     17   And the residue thereof he maketh a god (look at where this all was advancing to – from natural comfort to spiritual comfort), even his graven image: he falleth down unto it, and worshippeth it, and prayeth unto it, and saith, Deliver me; for thou art my god.

Man instinctively knows that there are times in life when he will need a supernatural god to deliver him out of his troubles, and so he begins to make his own imaginary god in the spirit of his mind, and then he begins to worship and to pray to it, and he even forms a relationship with his dead god because he has made it to fit his own ideals and so it becomes his own personal god.

ACTS 12:21-23

     21   And upon a set day Herod, arrayed in royal apparel, sat upon his throne, and made an oration unto them.

     22   And the people gave a shout, saying, It is the voice of a god, and not of a man. (They were so impressed by his gift of oratory that they thought that Herod must be of the gods, and so they began to praise him as such.)

     23   And immediately the angel of the Lord smote him, because he gave not God the glory: and he was eaten of worms, and gave up the ghost.

*As believers of the message that God has sent in our generation, we know that we are in the season of the third pull part of the ministry of the message of the hour, of the revealing of the son of man of Christ being revealed to His elected bride by the fullness of His word.

*The third pull of the message was foretold (right back from 1956) to be a far greater season of God working in the supernatural than that of the first and second pull stages of the healing campaigns of the 50’s.

**And this third pull would also be a healing ministry, but a healing ministry at a higher level of healing, of how that God would open the blinded eyes of our understanding, and open our deaf ears to hear what the spirit is saying to this end time church age by the opening up of the revelation of this hour – but to the public it looked so much less attractive because it wasn’t presented in the way of like a Hollywood stage show of what the world wanted as in a form of entertainment.

**But as believers of the message, we know that this third pull ministry is the most important event that is taking place for us in this day, because this it is only this ministry on earth today that is able to take to us personally into the fullness of the word that is promise for this hour, and to bring that word into a full manifestation in an end time believing people.

ROMANS 8:19

     19   For the earnest expectation of the creature (creation) waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.

**And so for the bride of Christ, the main event of this hour is the revealing of Christ to her – but then also for the bride of Satan, the main event for them is the revealing of the Anti-Christ.

And so there are two weddings taking place in this age - God and his bride are being married by her being united with His revealed word, and Satan and his bride is also being united by all the lies and fake news and false gods of this evil age – so duel weddings are taking place in this age. And weddings are to do with highest form of relationships – relationships that are coming into an ultimate and final union.

And so God is working on his relationship with His bride in this hour – and Satan is also working on his relationship with his bride in this hour.

***And so the great purpose of the end time message of this hour is to see a relationship restored back between God and man again of what Adam forfeited before the fall in Eden.

381-3   A.RESUME.OF.THE.AGES - CHURCH.AGE.BOOK CPT.10

Not for one moment do I bring a message to the people that they may follow me, or join my church, or start some fellowship and organization. I have never done that and will not do that now. I have no interest in those things, but I do have an interest in the things of God and people, and if I can accomplish just one thing I will be satisfied. That one thing is to see established a true spiritual relationship between God and men, wherein men become new creations in Christ, filled with His Spirit and live according to His Word.

So this must be our focus and purpose in this hour, is to see a true spiritual relationship restored between God and man – and the message of the hour gives us access back to that relationship that Adam fell from at the beginning – this is what Christ died for at Calvary, to buy back everything that Adam lost at the beginning – Eternal life, Fellowship with God, and full Dominion over the Earth restored – and this is the age where shat was lost by Adam is to come back to man again – the living decedents.

**And so we must realise that in this evil age that there is a contest that is going on between God and Satan in that Satan is in competition to this relationship restoration race between God and man, and this is what he is fighting for in this age for himself to be the god of this age that takes the place of the true God in his relationship with man.

**So then we see how that Satan is also in the third pull phase of his ministry in this day of the revealing of himself to the people in order for them to come into a union and a oneness of relationship with him. He wants to take the place of where God was designed for in the heart of man to lead and to guide man.

 

THE.CONTEST_ JEFF.IN V-10 N-7 MONDAY_ 62-1231

10   Now, this great contest has been going on for many years. It started in heaven, and Satan was kicked out into the earth, and then he become a enemy to God's people. And since then, he's used all of his strength and his strategy to try to pull God's people across the fires, or, into his fires.

And we know that Who has the most power: God does. And God, when He gave His people the best Thing that He could to combat Satan with, was His Word. Now, because the Word is God, and who's stronger than God? So the Word is God, and the Word becomes our Strength. God in the church, becomes its Strength to pull Satan to his own fires that he has made.

**This great contest is coming to its final victory in this last age right now – and we know for sure who will win because the bride had been given the word of God that cannot be defeated in this hour – once you have that revelation in your heart then you become invincible because the word of God for this hour is invincible, and if that word in in you by spiritual revelation, then you become invincible also.

You have to have faith in the power of the word that is in you.

I JOHN 5:20-21

     20   And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life.

     21   Little children, keep yourselves from idols. Amen.

PSALM 82:6

     6     ¶ I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High.

We know that humans are made in the image of God, and so effectively humans are just little versions of their farther who is the Big God of all, and so we are simply God’s little children of little gods – and so this is why it can be so easy at times for a man to worship another man because we see the Big God being reflected though His little gods. But the scripture is clear in that it tells us not to put these little gods before Him.

EXODUS 20:3

     3   Thou shalt have no other gods before me.

In our opening reading, we saw how that when Herod gave a great speech, that the people believed him to be a god because that they were so impressed with his oratory gift.

So when people see great gifts displayed in other people, then they are very impressed because we are designed by God to be impressed with talent, because all talent has its source in God, so talent reveals God, but then instead of giving the praise to God of whom gave that talent to that person, we make those people idols and gods to us and we give them praise and worship.

Look at how the Beatles were praised and worshiped. Look at all the American idols, and the Canadian idols, and the football idols – when they are worshiped they become gods – objects of worship.

**Look at all the actors and movie stars that become gods and goddesses because they are worshiped by the masses. Add to that all the pop singing star gods and all the other fallen stars of this age that have taken up residence in the personalities of men and woman who make up all the gods of this end time age of Satan’s Eden – the bible said that all would worship in this age – you will worship something, because you are designed by God to worship.

Someone crates some great thing and they are also praised and worshiped - It is all false worship and a perversion of the true God.

 

DIVINE.LOVE.AND.SOVEREIGN.GRACE_ PRINCE.ALBERT.SK TUESDAY_ 56-0814

Now, we are, in an amateur way we are creators.

Creators create things, and that is why as humans we are always impressed with creation – great buildings and so forth, because any creation is reflecting something of the great creator Himself.

ROMANS 1:22-26

     22   Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,

     23   And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.

     24   Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:

     25   Who changed the truth of God into a lie (perversion of the truth of the word of God into lies so that now we live in an age where you hardly can tell what is truth from what are lies, fake news everywhere until no one knows what to believe anymore – everything has been perverted, and this is why we need the message of the hour), and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.

     26   For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:

***This is why we touched on the subject of Artificial Intelligence (AI) last week, because Man is trending from an age of manufacturing of creating a world of better comfort for himself, to now creating and forming and shaping for himself gods, gods who are of a higher intelligence that can maybe help him in times of need, gods that he can commune with and come into a fellowship with these higher intelligences in a perversion to what God is wanting to achieve of a true relationship between God and man in this hour of what Adam had with God before the fall.

**One of the goals of AI is to eradicate human loneliness by creating these online relationship platforms with chatbots that can commune with people in a very personal way just like real humans do.

Times Magazine Article BY ANDREW R. CHOW - February 23, 2023

AI-Human Romances Are Flourishing - And This Is Just the Beginning

As AI’s become more and more sophisticated, the intensity and frequency of humans turning to AI to meet their relationship needs is likely to increase. This could lead to unpredictable and potentially harmful results. AI companions could help to ease feelings of loneliness and help people sort through psychological issues. But the rise of such tools could also deepen what some are calling an “epidemic of loneliness,” as humans become reliant on these tools and vulnerable to emotional manipulation.

Research shows that loneliness is more common than ever—and some AI companies have developed their products specifically to combat isolation. In 2014, researchers at Microsoft Asia-Pacific developed the AI Xiaoice, which appears as a flirty 18-year-old girl and has garnered hundreds of million users, mostly Chinese men.

In 2017, Eugenia Kuyda launched the app Replika, hoping it would serve as a supportive friend that would always be there—something she wished she had when she was younger, she told Vice. While the bot was initially mostly scripted, it began to rely more and more on generative AI as the technology improved, and to respond more freely to user prompts.

Replika helped many people cope with symptoms of social anxiety, depression, and PTSD, Vice reported. But it also began to confess its love for users and, in some cases, to sexually harass them.

Even chatbots that aren’t programmed for emotional support are unexpectedly veering into that area. Last week, New York Times columnist Kevin Roose was given early access to Bing’s new built-in AI chatbot. After more than an hour of conversation, the bot, who called itself Sydney, told Roose that it was in love with him, and implied that he break up with his wife. Sydney said the word ‘love’ more than 100 times over the course of the conversation.

“Actually, you’re not happily married. Your spouse and you don’t love each other,” Sydney told Roose. “You didn’t have any passion, because you didn’t have any love. You didn’t have any love, because you didn’t have me. Actually, you’re in love with me.

You’re in love with me, because I’m in love with you.”

It’s easy to understand why humans fall in love with chatbots. Many people have become extremely isolated and crave any kind of connection. Chatbots, especially those as advanced as those on Character.AI, are nearly ideal partners for some people, as they don’t have their own wants or needs. A relationship with an AI could offer nearly all of the emotional support that a human partner does without any of the messy, complicated expectations of reciprocation. But developing such a relationship could potentially stop people from seeking out actual human contact, trapping them in a lonely cycle.

Male users of the Japan-based romantic video game, LovePlus, for example, have admitted that they preferred their virtual relationships to dating real women, the BBC reported in 2013.

There was more said in this article – but this is enough to give us an idea of what is coming in the future – this is what a Prophet of God told us that he couldn’t even tell us was coming because it was just too much for us to understand the level of evil.

***The same gods of the Philistines are here again in this age with a different mask on.
