Ned, like most others, posesses an internal psy-creature.
When he reads about god and develops a closer relationship with god, he is affirming and impowering the psy-creature [word-god].
His psy-creature knows nothing other then what Ned already knows, but the way that the psy-creature uses Ned’s body/knowledge is different then the way that Ned would use his body/knowledge.
Ideas of submission to the wordgod, combined with things like asking for forgiveness–have nothing to do with the true essense of the Christ. From my experience, the tyrany was added by human leaders & never existed within the essense of the will of Christ. Still, the guilt and submission issues of the moral code can cause you some real problems in the future! The: “I am peaceful-never-fight-hippy-food-source” gets a person heavily exploited, whilst the dreams of heaven lead to possible suicidal attitudes about your mortal human existence, Ned.
Things that happened in the bible accounts, such as god’s prophet holding the staff above the battle and the Isrealites winning the war [but when the staff was not up, the Isrealites started loosing]–this is what I call ChaosModulation. If the Isrealite God was all-mighty, “he” would not need a human puppet, and would not fail when the human puppet was failing, but more likely–this prophet/puppet was a host for a not-all-mighty being, trying to channel its power and will into the prophet/puppet.
These Isrealite prophets that “god sent” aren’t around anymore, but, for example, a very powerful wisard/shaman at another forum that I have read about–could do things such as control the outcome of a football game. [National football, yeah!] When he lost focus, the football scores started to go “natural” again. This is the same kind of mass ChaosModulation that the Isrealite prophet had used during a battle/war.
Each of these people were intermediaries for non-physical beings. Each one of them was posessed, but each by a different force. It still happens today, but it is rare.
Many Christians don’t realize just what kinds of origins Isrealite religion had, and it was just a new form of magick/spiritism/diety worship that arose baring vast similarities to Paganism and Egyptian religion.
Things such as the massia dieing on the cross, a creator, jugdment of the dead, these were all previously Pagan and Egyptian. These are just a few of a thousand examples that anyone could research if they found the right resources.
God never lived up to his image, because he is not his image.
Original Jewish religion was a form of magick.
“Faith” is needed for prayers to work, because faith is a form of magick that can become very powerful and alter reality. Things like faith and piety are the main forces used in Christian magick.
But in the modern age, realism, materialism and atheism have “switched off” a person’s “crazey ideas”, and along with it, human “crazey abilities” have also been sort of “switched off”. Instead of casting magick and reprogramming matter/energy with his belief and bias, the realist and the atheist supress magick and fuel realism with their bias. Even though atheists and realists have no belief in supernatural power, have no faith, and have no magick power–the atheis and realists ARE FAR MORE RESISTENT TO MAGICK. This is because their powers are diverted into making everything “normal”.
Also, some faithful Christians are more suseptable to magick and astral beings, because they do not have their realist anti-magick barrier up.
All religion originated from magick and deathist obsession. It then mixed with state and society, gaining social order and becoming more of a control device/business.
Even if most people don’t know jack-shit about anything, doesn’t mean I have to. I have studied the subject for a long time, and I am beginning to understand the exact way that subatomic quantu is reprogrammed, but this will take much time to learn.
Disbelief in me, and belief in someting else instead, will only result in a different state of being which will have a different effect upon general principals of magick.
Chaotens atleast realized that world view and belief are tools that change reality, therefor they can paradigm shift from realism to superstition, do evoke or repress magick. Most people just are stick with one paradigm/belief and that’s it.
As usual and forever, I am mostly correct.
