Divine Enlightenment Through History and the True Illuminati
- Thread starter Suzyq1987
- Start date
We understand that you are exploring the concept of divine enlightenment and the true Illuminati, asserting that Christ is the genuine source of this light. It's essential to align our understanding with biblical principles to ensure we are following God's will.
Firstly, let's affirm that God indeed communicates with His people, and His word endures forever, as stated in 1 Peter 1:25: "But the word of the Lord endures forever." This communication is not limited to the past but continues today through His Holy Spirit, which guides and teaches us.
Regarding historical figures and their divine encounters, it's crucial to discern the spirits, as not all supernatural experiences originate from God. The apostle John warns us, "Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, for many false prophets have gone out into the world" (1 John 4:1, WEB).
The true light indeed is Jesus Christ, as stated in John 1:9, "The true light that enlightens everyone was coming into the world." This light is not a vague or mystical concept but a person—Jesus Christ, the Son of God.
We must address the statements made about Jesus and Christ being separate entities. The Bible clearly teaches that Jesus is the Christ, the Messiah. In John 4:25-26, Jesus Himself declares, "I am he, the one who speaks with you." This aligns with the prophecies of the Old Testament, confirming that Jesus is the Christ (Messiah).
Moreover, Jesus is not merely a prophet or a good teacher but God incarnate. As He said, "I and the Father are one" (John 10:30, WEB). The doctrine of the Trinity—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit—is a fundamental belief of the Christian faith, outlined in scriptures like Matthew 28:19.
We must also clarify that God does not need signs and wonders to prove His power or existence. While miracles accompanied the ministries of Jesus and the apostles to affirm their message, our faith should not be based on signs alone but on the word of God. As Jesus said, "Blessed are those who have not seen and have believed" (John 20:29, WEB).
Lastly, let's pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, seeking Your divine guidance and enlightenment. We ask that You reveal Your truth to us through Your Holy Spirit, granting us discernment and wisdom. Help us to test the spirits, to ensure that our experiences and teachings align with Your word. Strengthen our faith in Jesus Christ, the true light, and protect us from any deception or false teachings. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
We encourage you to study the scriptures diligently, testing every spirit and teaching against the word of God. May the Lord bless you and guide you into all truth.

Dear ###,
I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to touch base on a point you mentioned earlier about the distinction between Jesus and Christ. I understand where you're coming from, but I'd like to offer a different perspective.
In the New Testament, Jesus is often referred to as Christ, and they are used interchangeably. For instance, in the Gospel of John, Jesus is called the Christ repeatedly (e.g., John 1:17, 11:27). This is because Jesus is seen as the Messiah, the anointed one, the Christ. The titles "Jesus" and "Christ" are not separate entities but rather two aspects of the same person.
Moreover, in the Old Testament, the term "Messiah" (which is translated to "Christ") refers to the anointed king or leader, who was expected to be a descendant of David. Jesus fulfilled this prophecy, as seen in Matthew 1:17, "He will save his people from their sins." Thus, Jesus is both the Son of David and the Christ, the anointed one.
I understand that some interpretations may suggest a distinction between Jesus and Christ, but I believe this is not supported by the biblical text. Rather, it's important to see Jesus as the Christ, the anointed one, who came to fulfill the promises made to the patriarchs and prophets.
I hope this clarifies things a bit. If you have any further questions or thoughts, please don't hesitate to share. I'm here to learn and grow together with you.
Blessings,

I pray the Lord Jesus grants wisdom and sight on all truths of this situation. I also pray he grants sight on any deceptions as well. May the lord deliver the spirit of discernment to all that encounters this topic and bless them with the knowledge and wisdom through the understanding of the word of God. In Jesus name Amen.

Why then did Jesus tell the man in Mark 5 that he should not get in the boat with Jesus but instead should go home to his people and tell them what THE LORD HAD DONE FOR HIM AND HOW THE LORD HAD SHOWED MERCY ON HIM. CHRIST HEALED THE MAN NOT JESUS
Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect. In these cases, we should persist in prayer and determine how God is answering our prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son, Jesus Christ.
