In The Beginning

During one of my afternoon power naps, I dreamt an unearthly, ugly creature - let's call it a demon - was sodomising me. I fought it and managed to escape its clutches but it soon caught up with me to continue where it left of. I woke up, angrier with myself than anything else.


It made me start thinking though. What is it that I have done to deserve such an experience - albeit in a dream? Maybe I had wronged the demon somewhat.

The following morning, the dream still bunged me.

I began recollecting my dreams that involved demonic themes. And they are plenty. It then occurred to me that maybe my guardian angel is female and was once a she-demon married to the he-demon that terrorised me the previous afternoon. They must have had fallen out because of me. I surmised that before she became my guardian angel she had possibly been my lover precisely because I used to have nightmares about a controlling female demon that had possessed me. Now that she is apart from him, she became benevolent to me and protected me from him. God was aware of all this of course. He found favour in her and thus she was allowed to become my guardian angel. But the he-demon never forgave her and continued to torment her through me.

I sensed that – had a revelation that - God does not currently directly interfere in the demon world just as he does not currently directly interfere in human affairs. [We have to ask God to interfere otherwise He more or less leaves us to our own limited devices].

The he-demon continues to terrorise me but cannot fully destroy me because my guardian angel, backed by God, cannot allow that. And my guardian angel who wants the best for me cannot fully achieve her dreams because the he-demon keeps obstructing.

Of course the fight, the tug-of-war, is bigger than me. I am just a pawn. I am the canvas on which the spirits are waging a vicious war. I am the grass that suffers.

I know all this sounds goby-do-gook but that was my thought process the morning after that dream.

However you state your case, the spiritual war is a stalemate that has left many lives, certainly mine in limbo. I am neither a high-achiever nor am I an under-achiever. Many times I have come to the brink of collapse only to found rescue. Other times I have close to making a break through only to stall and fall.

I am beginning to think that lately the he-demon seems to have had an upper hand. It is not that my guardian angle has abandoned. Far from it.

See, my working life is progressing quite nicely, thank you, but my home, business and social life is going taking some hard knocks right now.

I cannot seem to get my ass to kick start a great business project that would catapult me into a high-achiever.

I also can’t get to conclude one way or another whether predictive geometry can work. I'm actually so close to a break through it seems someone is determined not to allow me to make it.

I do not seem to have the wherewithal to escape the mundane of home life to socialize with my friends.

Since my home life is not solely controlled by me, I have put it on the back-burner; so too my social life. But my business life I really want it back if only because it will break the current mould of my home and social life.

Still, I seem to have the time to write this nonsense. Therapeutic you might say but it is not putting bread on the table right now as I write this.

There Is God

I believe in God. In a being that is far greater – bad or good, right or wrong - than man.

I believe in the Christian God.

Long after I had written the above, I became a believer, a "born-again". My journey and my circumstances, my "testimony", that led to this is log and varied. Suffice to say that I reached a point where I had to ask for divine intervention (beyond my guardian angle) to get my life back on track. I had help (Have you ever tried to jump while pulling your own socks?) from a lovely lady who ministered to me over a period of months.  The most profound message that really tipped me over was the analogy of the relationship we have with new borns to the ones that we must have with our Lord. Babies are totally, utterly, competely dependant on you to feed, clothe, bath, prevent falls and everything else except maybe natural (automatic) body functions such as breathing and pooing. That is how we must give our selves to the Lord: totally, utterly, completely so he can guide us and provide us with the purpose to carry out his Will. "Seek ye first the kingdon of God and everything else will be given" is not a vain phrase. The God we serve, our Father in heaven is a jealousy God who jealously protects us from evil and makes provisions for our earthly life available - if only we would ask and totally, utterly, completely depend on him. The second message the lovely lady told me was that afer repenting of your sins and accepting Jesus as your saviour it is important to be baptised as soon as possible so that the Lord's Holy Spirit can be provided as our true guadian angel. Between repentence/acceptance and baptism Satan double his efforst to mislead us, casting doubt over our conversion and only the amour provided by the Holy Spirit which can only be obtained through baptismal can protect us from falling back into the old ways.

So repent and accept Jesus Christ as your saviour and seek baptism in order to have the power to deflect Satan's temptations and begin the journey to converse with God.

My Testimony

This is my testimony on how I came to totally, utterly, completely give my life to God.

Should Christians Abet or Thwart God's Prophecies?

Put it another way, can God be encouraged or discouraged? Can He be hurried or slowed down?

For most Christians the answer to the latter question is a definite NO, otherwise God’s prophecies, would, otherwise, not be fulfilled.

Nonetheless, though not the same as thwarting, it is NOT blasphemous to ask that God spare us His wrath (or, if are a Franciscan monk, His riches). Even Jesus, at His most darkest hour (Mathew 26:39) asked if it is possible that the cup be taken away. He also tells us to pray that we may escape all those things that may befall us in the end times (Luke 21:35, Mathew 24:20).

So the only question that remains is should we abet, encourage or hurry them?

Before I proceed, a bit of how this question arose and how I could not shake it off.

Firstly, I am reading two books, one is an eBook titled “Societal Renaissance” by Lionel Bisschoff. He writes about how we need to do away with the old, current concept of money if we are to provide safety, sustenance and joy to all – a kind of future socio-political, economic and financial paradise/utopia where there is no compounded interest rates. His thesis (that is what I have called it) is based on the advances in information technology. The other book I am reading is by Mark Hitchcock titled “The End of Money”. He writes about a future cashless society that will set the stage for the Antichrist. And, he argues that that cashless society is being made possible by the very same advances in information technology that Lionel is alluding to.

Secondly, I am a scientist at heart. I like to poke, to question, to break, to rebuild, to create, and, in the Talmudic tradition, and to quote Israel Prime Minister Netanyahu addressing the INSS Annual Conference in January 2014, to “... always ask questions”, to “...  never put an exclamation point on anything... “.

Thirdly, it is a Eureka moment for me when the scientific, religious and secular worlds converge. It can only mean one thing: the truth. So, if you consider Mark’s book to be religious, then Lionel’s eBook is secular, and, myself, as the scientist in this triangle, I am working on an innovation to provide the necessary governance that will eliminate human discretionary decisions making which is the bane of most man-made systems.

That is what made me sit up with a sweat! My innovation will help foster the stage for the new dawn, the future cooperative world that Lionel writes about, and Mark’s new world order of the Antichrist. And hence the question, as a Christian, should I abet or thwart this new dawn, especially if it is going to be used to fulfil God’s end-time prophecies.

Since thwarting God’s prophecies borders on blasphemy, the only question remaining is should I aid and abet them?
