Shadow Beings

inAll, Awakening, Spirituality

Shadow beings are a kind of elemental being that tends to watch us, frighten children etc. But yes, they can attack you if they think you are getting too spiritually connected. But they are not too difficult to sort out. At least, I found it pretty easy to turn them.

inAll, Awakening, Christianity, Religion, Spirituality

If you understand that in biblical terms, the root of all sin, is lies. And that it is the lies we tell ourselves, and act on as if they were true, which causes sinful behaviour. And that a huge lie a number of people tell themselves, is that they are normal, which means they are conforming to some standard of normality that they have adopted from external influences.

Gratitude in the moment

Matthew 4 – Satan tempts Jesus, reinterpreted

inAll, Christianity, Religion, Spirituality

The story of the temptation of Christ, is a merging of three different visits by the devil, and the very last thing that happened was the testing for 40 days and 40 nights. I’ve tried to word it more accurately, but I too have distorted the truth, somewhat, to do that. To make it more understandable in the context of the original summarisation.
