Death | Works Righteousness | Parody |
In the Book of Revelation, the 4 Horsemen of the Apocalypse aren’t merely ciphers for literal conquest, war, famine & death, they are the metaphysical personification of those concepts & represent beings, forces, & institutions which are all deeply invested in who & what exercises control, authority, & presence with respect to Monarchial Dominion in, through, over, & around the very fabric of reality itself.
Conquest presents itself/manifests itself as that which glories in the rise & fall of moral empire & imperial structures (Principles of Faith & Practice). Its Aesthetic (defining characteristic) is the rise & fall of moral &/or literal empire/government. It expresses itself in Black Magick/Sorcery via the the principle of parasitism insofar as it grafts, bonds, joins, unites, &/or merges or seeks to merge or attach itself to one or more targets in order to refine & conquer them. (Daniel 7)
War presents itself/manifests itself as that which glories in conflict/conflict resolution that more often than not theologically, philosophically, ethically &/or philosophically destroys either to pave the way for the new imperial order &/or to glory in destruction for its own sake. War seeks to strategically deconstruct/destroy the correspondence/relationships relative to the simultaneous moral unity & unanimity of the created order & ultimately the Moral Imago Dei itself. In its literal mode, it centers on struggle for power between 2 or more individuals, ecclesiastical institutions, &/or governments. (Hosea 4:6)
Its aesthetic (defining characteristic) centers on destruction. It expresses itself in Black Majick/Sorcery via the principle of contagion, insofar as it seeks to erode &/or destroy the correspondence between truth & falsity, righteousness & sin/iniquity, reality & unreality in general, & that which is & that which ought to be in particular.
Famine presents/manifests itself as that which glories in moral & material gluttony and material & moral poverty resulting in moral sickness/infirmity. Its aesthetic (defining characteristic) is pestilence. The Bible describes apostasy as the road to destruction plagued with a lack of morally righteous theological, philosophical, & moral/ethical knowledge. (Hosea 9:6)
Death, like Apostasy, encompasses all of these evils & centers on works righteousness. Its aesthetic, works righteousness, kills. Works righteousness is sorcery’s answer to the Gospel of Grace & Faith. In sorcery/Satanic witchcraft the Enemy seeks to parody what it perceives as a or even
the source of righteousness & redemption via its reward system. (Romans 9:30 - 33)
