Infinite Diversity Infinite Combinations

For the past 2 or 3 weeks, the Christian Internet/Social Media has been abuzz with chatter about the Gubbmit revealing that space aliens exist & are demons. First of all, this all comes across as yet another conspiracy theory working its way through some quarters of American Evangelicalism.     Second, why would space aliens be demons.      Maybe some are & some aren’t.    So what if some of them are.     Demons are still beings who left their positions of power & authority (Jude).   Most importantly why is a challenge for our faith as Christians?     According to the Bible, the purpose of the created order is to testify to God’s existence, attributes, & authority (Romans 1:18 - 32).    God is not tribal, territorial spirit.     God is universal.     He created everyone & everything every-when-&-where.      That means that if extr...

Apostasy both comprises & embraces 4 evils: moral declension, moral stupidity, moral rebellion, & ultimately moral death.  


Moral Declension presents itself/manifests itself as that which glories in the rise & fall of moral empire’s imperial structures (Principles of Faith & Practice).  Its Aesthetic (defining characteristic) is the enfeeblement of moral 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 redefine & conquer them. (Romans 7 & 8)


Moral Stupidity presents itself/manifests itself as that which glories in  conflict & conflict resolution that more often than not theologically, philosophically, &/or ethically destroys in order to either pave the way for the new imperial order or glory in destruction for its own sake.   Moral Stupidity 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 — and — supplant these relationships &/or the Imago Dei with any number of alternatives all of which result in (false) devotion to God, &/or any number of moral/ethical principles, & /or any number of pagan pseudodeities. (Romans 1:18 - 32),


Its aesthetic (ie defining characteristic) centers on (false) devotion.  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. 


Moral Rebellion presents/manifests itself as that which glories in moral & material gluttony (licentiousness) & poverty (legalism),  resulting in moral sickness/infirmity.  Its aesthetic (defining characteristic) is plague.      The Bible describes apostasy as the road to destruction plagued with a lack of morally righteous theological, philosophical, & moral/ethical knowledge.   (Romans 1:18 - 32)


Moral Death - Reliance on Works Righteousness, like Apocalypse, encompasses all of these evils & centers on works righteousness, resulting in Death.  Its aesthetic is expiration insofar as works righteousness is sorcery’s answer to the Gospel of Grace & faith, and works righteousness results in Death.   In sorcery/Satanic witchcraft, the Enemy seeks to parody what it perceives as a source &/o the  source of righteousness & redemption.  (Romans 6:23, Romans 9:30 - 33)
