Speaker 1 (00:00):
Wake Up Radio Network a rational voice in a world
of conspiracy. Jim Duke Perspective, there is an intriguing topic
about how Luciferianism is making its way. It's becoming mainstream.
(00:24):
The enlightenment and esotericism it is now in the mainstream.
So we're gonna look at what this spiritual enlightenment and
self improvement fanaticism is about. My website is Jim Duke

(00:48):
keep this keep this in your mind when you're sharing,
so that you can share people the articles or the
topics that we cover. If they have any questions, you
may be able to hook them with it. So we're
wondering about what if this enlightenment everybody seems to be chasing,
(01:11):
this divine enlightenment and has become something that is replaced
spiritualism or biblical spiritualism, because spirit biblical spiritualism is set
tend to be closed minded, narrowed, specific and exclusive, so
it's reached out even in Christianity in circles as such
(01:34):
is to include or at least entertain or appease the
occult teachings by leaving open the possibility of past to
self empowerment and spiritual awakening. That mimics Christianity and uses
the concept of Jesus as a form of virtue and light,
(01:57):
but not actually reflecting on him, relying on him as
the source of that light in which people that are
Christian are supposed to have a relationship with the person,
not with the idea. So actually, I believe that the
Enlightenment is Luciferianism in disguise. So we'll explore how ancient
(02:20):
occult teachings, once hidden in secret societies, are now becoming
marketed as paths of self improvement, self empowerment, spiritual awaking, awakening,
and even even Christian enlightenment. I mean, I believe the
rese Secrutions were one group that were a mix of
(02:42):
mystic and Christian principles, but they don't use Christ's principles.
They use Christian principles. There's a difference. You've probably seen it.
New age practices, mysticism, self help gurus pushing ideas sound
good on the surface, but they have much darker implications.
(03:05):
They're basically spirituality without divinity of Christ. But more than that,
when they do reflect on divinity, to tap into divinity,
to tap into God. It's actually teaching you that tapping
into God is just a personification of tapping into yourself
(03:25):
as divine. So what's really behind this rebranding of ancient
occult teachings. Well, first to understand what is Luciferianism. This
gets this gets really controversial because Luciferianism tends to be
(03:47):
differentiated between Satanism. Satanism is the idea of worshiping Satan
as an entity and believing in Satan and occult practices
and rituals of Satanism, including the human sacrifices that are noted.
So it's become like the dark Side, but Luciferianism tends
(04:12):
to be more lighter. Encouragement enlightenment may basically philosophies that
are incorporating some of Christianity even but to give you
a humanistic approach. And one thing that people don't realize
is Luciferianism is philosophical, but it's also a religious belief
(04:36):
system that often idolizes or idolizes Lucifer, viewing him as
the symbol of enlightenment or individuality and a rebellion against tyranny.
But unlike traditional views of Lucifer as the fallen angel,
Luciferians see him as the bringer of light, which is
(04:58):
what Lucifer means, the light, the light bearer. It's a
symbol of human progress and self discovery. However, Lucifer has
even mentioned in Isaiah fourteen about Lucifer being Oh son
of the Morning. It's not the same as the morning star.
(05:18):
It's the sun of the dawn, of the light of dawn.
It's a different Many people say morning stars son of
the do't what's the difference, Well, there's is a difference.
Morning star and light of the dawn or son of
the Dawn is a different reference. Ones like more associated
with Venus and light bearer, which is what Lucifer means.
(05:39):
And when you see the all seeing eye, that's what
you see, the light bearer. Some people say that that's
a reflection of the eye of Providence, God overlooking us.
And of course some say Lucifer is equated with God
and that it's God looking over us, the light bearer.
That's not the Lucifer we're talking about. Some people want
to differentiate it between Satan, but see Satan isn't really
(06:03):
even the name of the entity. It's not like, hey, Satan,
even though it's been addressed Satan. You know, get behind me, Satan.
What the word is, it's it's small case Satan. It's
the Hasatan. When they said it that in the scriptures,
it's saying, get behind me, you adversary. That's what Satan means,
(06:27):
the adversary. Lucifer is a personification of emphasis of the
light bearer, and in scripture it talks about the false light,
the light that's actually darkness, and it even says if
if Satan himself can transform himself into an angel of
light and his ministers ministers of righteousness, they can personify goodness,
(06:50):
but their end is death. Their end is to sway
you from God. So this Lucifer we're talking about is
the same personaification of the Hacitan, the Satan. It's just
not included as the same entity because one's dark, one's light,
and you have to have both in unity to be
or you have to both in diversity duality to be
(07:14):
in unity, because the unity forms of energetic magic also
in itself. I'm not going to get into that at
this time, but so Lucifer may not be an entity
even as someuce symbolized an ideology treat to its entity,
it could be a concept, the philosophical concept of enlightenment.
(07:37):
And if you want to really look at the essence
of Lucifer or Satan, the adversary, it's the adversary against
God is what it actually refers to. And Satanism, despite
what people say, is not the belief in a pitchforked, horned,
(07:58):
red skinned demon Lucifer or Satan. Satanism is actually defined
by looking at the characteristics of what was offered in
the Garden of Eden Genesis three. You shall know good
and evil, you shall not surely die, and you could
(08:20):
be as gods. In essence, that was the the serpent
in the in the garden, and in Revelation tells us
the serpent and the dragon are Satan, the adversary. It's
the same entity. So Satanism isn't doing human sacrifices and
worshiping the devil. Satanism is a higher self, a path
(08:46):
to the higher self without God, reaching divinity without God.
You shall know good and evil, that's an esoteric language,
that's uh gnosticism. You shall not surely die, that's divinity
of reincarnation. And then you shall be as gods. You
(09:09):
don't need God, you're divine yourself. That's the essence of Satanism,
and actually Luciferianism mimicses but it's in an esoteric sense. Now,
what's esotericism. It's the same as occult. It means hidden,
that's all it means. Exoterism is the external persona of it.
(09:33):
The esoteric is the hidden knowledge that's typically accessible only
to the small initiated group or enlightened group. And these
focus on inner workings of the universe, spirituality and occult wisdom,
and relates to alchemy, astrology, mysticism, and the occult. And honestly,
(09:55):
there's a fascination in it. Everybody likes to be in
the know. This is common within secret societies on how
to draw people, and secret societies like the Freemasons are
well known, but they're also only invited by initiation, not
by membership. You don't just join, You have to be
(10:18):
invited to be in the inner circles. And then in
that you're either brought up in the light path where
you're just basically involved in the humanitarian benefits, or you're
in the dark path, where you actually conduct the rituals
and get involved in the esoteric secrets of the symbolism
called degrees. And it's ironic that people say it's humanitarian effort.
(10:42):
I saw a definition of humanism the other day. Humanism
is actually secular. It's a belief of the world through
a worldview that there is no God. It's actually anti
God to be humanitarian. So Freemasons to tell me they're
Christians and their humanitarians, it's a it's a oxymoron. You
(11:03):
can't be freemason and believe in Luciferianism and believe in
esotericism of occult hidden stuffs, working in secret and be
humanitarian and and worship Jesus because humanitarianism is a obstacle
(11:26):
to Christ. It's a it's a it's a disbelief of
Christ to award the earth, award the world, award human efforts,
not a word God's efforts through you Luciferian off. Luciferianism
often is considered esoteric. It combines the idea of light
(11:47):
bearer light bringing knowledge with mysticism, mystical teachings achieving a
higher consciousness or spiritual power. Now rebranding Luciferianism, which is
what's going on is Luciferian is a symbol of rebellion
and light, and in traditional Christianity, Lucifer is seen as
(12:09):
the enemy of God, the source of evil. But with
the rebranding Lucifer and Luciferianism has become spiritual modernistics using
it to benefit the world, to make a symbol of
personal freedom, empowerment and human potential and self help gurus
(12:32):
tell you how you can benefit yourself. It's also the
basis of theosophy. You've got to remember Helena Blovatsky in
the Theosophical Society started to popularize the idea of occult
knowledge with spiritual enlightenment, fusing all the different beliefs Kabbalism
with Resicrusianism with Eastern Mysticism, to bettysm and even Christianity.
(13:01):
And then you have the group of Lucius Trust. As
I mentioned Lucifer Publishing. I don't know if I mentioned
as a podcast or last podcast uh Luciferian Lucifer Uh.
Luci's Trust is Lucifer Publishing. It's a theosophical Luciferian group
that incorporated a higher consciousness of Christianity, and they're branding
(13:26):
the New Age movement that's the New Age movement, which
is branded as a force of good rather than evil.
So it's the narratives just basically focused on a different aspect,
not the dark path, but the light path. We got
modern rebranding examples like an entertainment and pop culture. Today,
(13:46):
the entertainment industry plays a massive role in rebranding celebrities
in many Many influencers are frequently seen promoting occult symbols
and Luciferian themes asoteric philosophies in their fashion, in their music,
and even in their stage. We've seen it with artists
(14:07):
like Beyonce, Rihanna, Lil Nassex using Luciferian imagy, even Katie
Perry with her Dark Horse Grammy Frightening Grammy appearance, presenting
these symbols in ways that appear empowering and liberating. And
(14:31):
then the self help movement spiritual teachers teaching you the
potential of yourself, Luciferian ideas awakening to awakenedness and self deification,
of becoming your own God and achieving divinity through your
own power, and this ties into Luciferian philosophy, presenting a
way to break free from the limited beliefs into a
higher consciousness. But then you have the Christian gurus like
(14:55):
Joel Ostein that promotes you have the power of I
Am in you weaken the faith to act in your
life for success, folks. That's Luciferian. And then esoteric symbolism
and New Age practices. You see these symbols everywhere, from
(15:17):
terat cards to crystals to astrology, apps and wellness retreats
and practices that were once hidden are now mainstream. You
see all Sni pentagrams every place, and now it's in
symbolism of stage performances and now it's applauded. But it's
(15:38):
all being presented as part of spiritual awakening journey. And
why is esotericism so mainstream now Because there's an increasing
search in the secular world for meaning. People are looking
for deeper meaning and purpose and religion, let's say traditional
(16:01):
religion like Christianity is replacing is being replaced with New
Age philosophies, the promise to offer hidden knowledge and more
personalized experience spiritual. It's classified as spiritual. I'm taking a
(16:21):
couple pauses in between, by the way, just because usually
I have Darren to interlude when I take a drink
of water. But I don't have him with me because
I'm doing these episodes spontaneously for lack of time while
during my move of my studio. So let's continue. The
(16:45):
role of Internet and social media also plays a role
in promoting Luciferianism. Social media, like Instagram, TikTok you two,
has allowed occult teachings that spread rapidly to market and
bring historical context that links them to Luciferianism. It's allowed
(17:07):
targeted messages where ideas that once seemed controversial are now
normalized and even celebrated, even applauded. And one theory gaining
traction is that the elite, those that are in power
behind the scenes, are behind the mainstreaming of these philosophies.
(17:29):
Why are they exposing their own secret philosophies. Well, because
they're pushing it to a larger agenda to control the
masses by promoting the positive avenue of it, the individuality,
self deification, rejection of the stifling traditional morality. That's why
(17:50):
they're opening up homosexuality and pedophilia and all this other stuff,
because it's seen as steps towards creating their new world
order where spiritual chaos range and everyone is enlightened to
do what they believe is truth apart from divine truth,
and it's a rejection of traditional religious values. It's more
(18:12):
people turn away from organized religion. They're seeking out alternative
philosophies to feel important, to satisfy the fulfillment of reaching divinity,
and to empower and promote self worship. It's attractive and
(18:34):
it's a it's a two. It's an option to get
away from the disillusioned church religious institutions. Now, I agree
the religious institutions have become confining, modernized, stifling, and limited,
and that's turned a lot of people away. But if
(18:55):
you got into real truth of Christianity, of from the
early Church, you'll find that it isn't the same as
what we have today. The institutions, the hierarchies that wasn't
supposed to be prevalent. Back then. You still listen to
leaders and those that were the elders, but not in
(19:17):
a way where they control you, lorded over you make
you come and do the bidding of the church and
the maintenance to keep the business going. It wasn't like that.
So this has turned a lot of people off. But
instead of turning towards more intimate fellowships. They've turned away
from Christianity. Now, whether there's spiritual dangers of Luciferianism besides
(19:41):
what I just told, Well, Lucifer's original rebellion against God
in the Bible is a story of pride, but it's
also a story of rebellion and deification. Like I said,
self worship, seeking knowledge, you shall no good and evil
(20:06):
forever living, you know immortality, you shall not die. Because
they believe in reincarnation. For the most part, it's a
false promise of enlightenment as a Terroriism, while it gives
you a sense of enlightenment, actually is spiritual deception. It's
possible that modern teachings of self empowerment are leading people
(20:29):
away from God into a false doctrine. And it's also
bringing people to the mark of the Beast. Whether you
believe that the mark of the Beast is something future
or it's something that is a mark, spiritually, it's still
a danger and it still leads into the mark of
the beast. If you believe in Lucifer, you've turned from God,
(20:54):
and when you come to God you receive his mark.
But when you turn from God, you're given a different seal,
different and that mark is the mark of those that
are dependent on the beast, and you're you're referring and
leaning on Lusafarian ideas. This is part of the deception.
(21:14):
It's a form of spirituality that denies Christ. So in essence,
it's being rebranded as a good thing enlightenment and empowerment.
But true la enlightenment comes from Christ alone, not from
false promises and false self deification or occult practices. Bible says,
(21:38):
don't do things under a basket, don't hide your light,
show it out. Luciferianism says there's a light that's concealed
and you have to be elite or in the no
to gain. It's trying to make it mainstream, but it
is mainstream. I mean, that's what this whole thing is about.
Enlightenment to the public. But you still have an inside
(22:00):
knowledge to gain, and it's a secret knowledge that come
out in the occult practices. As you are exposed to
the deeper secrets, that's more intriguing to you, right, so
you're more apt to gain something that nobody else knows.
People love secrecy, So it's spiritual deception of our time.
(22:23):
They sound appealing and liberating and sometimes even they sound plausible,
but they're not Christianity, and it's in opposition to Christianity.
Don't get you know, don't be wrong about this. So
I'm saying, watch yourself in subsiding to these practices. If
(22:48):
I guess, if you're Luciferian and you don't know Christ
and you don't care about God, then that's up to
you for those that want to seek truth in Jesus
Christ and lean by his light and come to Jesus.
Those of you that are Christians that are also incorporating
(23:09):
this enlightenment in your philosophies with self improvement, self deification,
the I am you know for success, Well, I guess
you're the ones in danger too. So all I'm saying
is be uh, be alert and have discernment and know
what you're getting into. All right, That's all we're gonna
do for this episode. My website Jimdukeperspective dot com and

the concept of Jesus as a form of virtue and light,
(01:57):
but not actually reflecting on him, relying on him as
the source of that light in which people that are
Christian are supposed to have a relationship with the person,
not with the idea. So actually, I believe that the
Enlightenment is Luciferianism in disguise. So we'll explore how ancient
(02:20):
occult teachings, once hidden in secret societies, are now becoming
marketed as paths of self improvement, self empowerment, spiritual awaking, awakening,
and even even Christian enlightenment. I mean, I believe the
rese Secrutions were one group that were a mix of

They use Christian principles. There's a difference. You've probably seen it.

good on the surface, but they have much darker implications.
(03:05):
They're basically spirituality without divinity of Christ. But more than that,
when they do reflect on divinity, to tap into divinity,
to tap into God. It's actually teaching you that tapping
into God is just a personification of tapping into yourself
(03:25):
as divine. So what's really behind this rebranding of ancient
occult teachings. Well, first to understand what is Luciferianism. This
gets this gets really controversial because Luciferianism tends to be
(03:47):
differentiated between Satanism. Satanism is the idea of worshiping Satan
as an entity and believing in Satan and occult practices
and rituals of Satanism, including the human sacrifices that are noted.
So it's become like the dark Side, but Luciferianism tends
(04:12):
to be more lighter. Encouragement enlightenment may basically philosophies that
are incorporating some of Christianity even but to give you
a humanistic approach. And one thing that people don't realize
is Luciferianism is philosophical, but it's also a religious belief
(04:36):
system that often idolizes or idolizes Lucifer, viewing him as
the symbol of enlightenment or individuality and a rebellion against tyranny.
But unlike traditional views of Lucifer as the fallen angel,
Luciferians see him as the bringer of light, which is
(04:58):
what Lucifer means, the light, the light bearer. It's a
symbol of human progress and self discovery. However, Lucifer has
even mentioned in Isaiah fourteen about Lucifer being Oh son
of the Morning. It's not the same as the morning star.
(05:18):
It's the sun of the dawn, of the light of dawn.
It's a different Many people say morning stars son of
the do't what's the difference, Well, there's is a difference.
Morning star and light of the dawn or son of
the Dawn is a different reference. Ones like more associated
with Venus and light bearer, which is what Lucifer means.
(05:39):
And when you see the all seeing eye, that's what
you see, the light bearer. Some people say that that's
a reflection of the eye of Providence, God overlooking us.
And of course some say Lucifer is equated with God
and that it's God looking over us, the light bearer.
That's not the Lucifer we're talking about. Some people want
to differentiate it between Satan, but see Satan isn't really
(06:03):
even the name of the entity. It's not like, hey, Satan,
even though it's been addressed Satan. You know, get behind me, Satan.
What the word is, it's it's small case Satan. It's
the Hasatan. When they said it that in the scriptures,
it's saying, get behind me, you adversary. That's what Satan means,
(06:27):
the adversary. Lucifer is a personification of emphasis of the
light bearer, and in scripture it talks about the false light,
the light that's actually darkness, and it even says if
if Satan himself can transform himself into an angel of
light and his ministers ministers of righteousness, they can personify goodness,
(06:50):
but their end is death. Their end is to sway
you from God. So this Lucifer we're talking about is
the same personaification of the Hacitan, the Satan. It's just
not included as the same entity because one's dark, one's light,
and you have to have both in unity to be
or you have to both in diversity duality to be
(07:14):
in unity, because the unity forms of energetic magic also
in itself. I'm not going to get into that at
this time, but so Lucifer may not be an entity
even as someuce symbolized an ideology treat to its entity,
it could be a concept, the philosophical concept of enlightenment.
(07:37):
And if you want to really look at the essence
of Lucifer or Satan, the adversary, it's the adversary against
God is what it actually refers to. And Satanism, despite
what people say, is not the belief in a pitchforked, horned,
(07:58):
red skinned demon Lucifer or Satan. Satanism is actually defined
by looking at the characteristics of what was offered in
the Garden of Eden Genesis three. You shall know good

in the in the garden, and in Revelation tells us
the serpent and the dragon are Satan, the adversary. It's
the same entity. So Satanism isn't doing human sacrifices and
worshiping the devil. Satanism is a higher self, a path
(08:46):
to the higher self without God, reaching divinity without God.
You shall know good and evil, that's an esoteric language,
that's uh gnosticism. You shall not surely die, that's divinity
of reincarnation. And then you shall be as gods. You
(09:09):
don't need God, you're divine yourself. That's the essence of Satanism,
and actually Luciferianism mimicses but it's in an esoteric sense. Now,
what's esotericism. It's the same as occult. It means hidden,
that's all it means. Exoterism is the external persona of it.
(09:33):
The esoteric is the hidden knowledge that's typically accessible only
to the small initiated group or enlightened group. And these
focus on inner workings of the universe, spirituality and occult wisdom,
and relates to alchemy, astrology, mysticism, and the occult. And honestly,
(09:55):
there's a fascination in it. Everybody likes to be in
the know. This is common within secret societies on how
to draw people, and secret societies like the Freemasons are
well known, but they're also only invited by initiation, not
by membership. You don't just join, You have to be
(10:18):
invited to be in the inner circles. And then in
that you're either brought up in the light path where
you're just basically involved in the humanitarian benefits, or you're
in the dark path, where you actually conduct the rituals
and get involved in the esoteric secrets of the symbolism
called degrees. And it's ironic that people say it's humanitarian effort.
(10:42):
I saw a definition of humanism the other day. Humanism
is actually secular. It's a belief of the world through
a worldview that there is no God. It's actually anti
God to be humanitarian. So Freemasons to tell me they're
Christians and their humanitarians, it's a it's a oxymoron. You
(11:03):
can't be freemason and believe in Luciferianism and believe in
esotericism of occult hidden stuffs, working in secret and be
humanitarian and and worship Jesus because humanitarianism is a obstacle
(11:26):
to Christ. It's a it's a it's a disbelief of
Christ to award the earth, award the world, award human efforts,
not a word God's efforts through you Luciferian off. Luciferianism
often is considered esoteric. It combines the idea of light

the enemy of God, the source of evil. But with
the rebranding Lucifer and Luciferianism has become spiritual modernistics using
it to benefit the world, to make a symbol of
personal freedom, empowerment and human potential and self help gurus
(12:32):

(13:01):
And then you have the group of Lucius Trust. As
I mentioned Lucifer Publishing. I don't know if I mentioned
as a podcast or last podcast uh Luciferian Lucifer Uh.
Luci's Trust is Lucifer Publishing. It's a theosophical Luciferian group
that incorporated a higher consciousness of Christianity, and they're branding
(13:26):
the New Age movement that's the New Age movement, which
is branded as a force of good rather than evil.
So it's the narratives just basically focused on a different aspect,
not the dark path, but the light path. We got
modern rebranding examples like an entertainment and pop culture. Today,

then the self help movement spiritual teachers teaching you the

of becoming your own God and achieving divinity through your
own power, and this ties into Luciferian philosophy, presenting a
way to break free from the limited beliefs into a

(14:55):
Joel Ostein that promotes you have the power of I

and New Age practices. You see these symbols everywhere, from

see all Sni pentagrams every place, and now it's in

(15:38):
all being presented as part of spiritual awakening journey. And
why is esotericism so mainstream now Because there's an increasing
search in the secular world for meaning. People are looking
for deeper meaning and purpose and religion, let's say traditional
(16:01):
religion like Christianity is replacing is being replaced with New
Age philosophies, the promise to offer hidden knowledge and more
personalized experience spiritual. It's classified as spiritual. I'm taking a
(16:21):
couple pauses in between, by the way, just because usually
I have Darren to interlude when I take a drink
of water. But I don't have him with me because
I'm doing these episodes spontaneously for lack of time while
during my move of my studio. So let's continue. The
(16:45):
role of Internet and social media also plays a role
in promoting Luciferianism. Social media, like Instagram, TikTok you two,
has allowed occult teachings that spread rapidly to market and
bring historical context that links them to Luciferianism. It's allowed
(17:07):
targeted messages where ideas that once seemed controversial are now
normalized and even celebrated, even applauded. And one theory gaining
traction is that the elite, those that are in power
behind the scenes, are behind the mainstreaming of these philosophies.
(17:29):
Why are they exposing their own secret philosophies. Well, because
they're pushing it to a larger agenda to control the
masses by promoting the positive avenue of it, the individuality,
self deification, rejection of the stifling traditional morality. That's why
(17:50):
they're opening up homosexuality and pedophilia and all this other stuff,
because it's seen as steps towards creating their new world
order where spiritual chaos range and everyone is enlightened to
do what they believe is truth apart from divine truth,
and it's a rejection of traditional religious values. It's more
(18:12):
people turn away from organized religion. They're seeking out alternative
philosophies to feel important, to satisfy the fulfillment of reaching divinity,
and to empower and promote self worship. It's attractive and
(18:34):
it's a it's a two. It's an option to get
away from the disillusioned church religious institutions. Now, I agree
the religious institutions have become confining, modernized, stifling, and limited,
and that's turned a lot of people away. But if
(18:55):
you got into real truth of Christianity, of from the
early Church, you'll find that it isn't the same as
what we have today. The institutions, the hierarchies that wasn't
supposed to be prevalent. Back then. You still listen to
leaders and those that were the elders, but not in
(19:17):
a way where they control you, lorded over you make
you come and do the bidding of the church and
the maintenance to keep the business going. It wasn't like that.
So this has turned a lot of people off. But
instead of turning towards more intimate fellowships. They've turned away
from Christianity. Now, whether there's spiritual dangers of Luciferianism besides
(19:41):
what I just told, Well, Lucifer's original rebellion against God
in the Bible is a story of pride, but it's
also a story of rebellion and deification. Like I said,
self worship, seeking knowledge, you shall no good and evil
(20:06):
forever living, you know immortality, you shall not die. Because
they believe in reincarnation. For the most part, it's a
false promise of enlightenment as a Terroriism, while it gives
you a sense of enlightenment, actually is spiritual deception. It's
possible that modern teachings of self empowerment are leading people
(20:29):
away from God into a false doctrine. And it's also
bringing people to the mark of the Beast. Whether you
believe that the mark of the Beast is something future
or it's something that is a mark, spiritually, it's still
a danger and it still leads into the mark of
the beast. If you believe in Lucifer, you've turned from God,
(20:54):
and when you come to God you receive his mark.
But when you turn from God, you're given a different seal,
different and that mark is the mark of those that
are dependent on the beast, and you're you're referring and
leaning on Lusafarian ideas. This is part of the deception.
(21:14):
It's a form of spirituality that denies Christ. So in essence,
it's being rebranded as a good thing enlightenment and empowerment.
But true la enlightenment comes from Christ alone, not from
false promises and false self deification or occult practices. Bible says,
(21:38):
don't do things under a basket, don't hide your light,
show it out. Luciferianism says there's a light that's concealed
and you have to be elite or in the no
to gain. It's trying to make it mainstream, but it
is mainstream. I mean, that's what this whole thing is about.
Enlightenment to the public. But you still have an inside
(22:00):
knowledge to gain, and it's a secret knowledge that come
out in the occult practices. As you are exposed to
the deeper secrets, that's more intriguing to you, right, so
you're more apt to gain something that nobody else knows.
People love secrecy, So it's spiritual deception of our time.
(22:23):
They sound appealing and liberating and sometimes even they sound plausible,
but they're not Christianity, and it's in opposition to Christianity.
Don't get you know, don't be wrong about this. So
I'm saying, watch yourself in subsiding to these practices. If
(22:48):
I guess, if you're Luciferian and you don't know Christ
and you don't care about God, then that's up to
you for those that want to seek truth in Jesus
Christ and lean by his light and come to Jesus.
Those of you that are Christians that are also incorporating
(23:09):
this enlightenment in your philosophies with self improvement, self deification,
the I am you know for success, Well, I guess
you're the ones in danger too. So all I'm saying
is be uh, be alert and have discernment and know
what you're getting into. All right, That's all we're gonna
