  • How did Jesus end the influence of dark spirits in the past?

    Jesus is identified as the force that ended the influence of dark spirits in the past, particularly in biblical times. His teachings, miracles, and ultimate sacrifice on the cross are believed to have triumphed over the powers of darkness, offering salvation and deliverance to those oppressed by spiritual forces.

  • What is the concept of a "dark Trinity" and its implications?

    The concept of a "dark Trinity" consists of Baal as the first spirit influencing apostasy and paganization, symbolizing the removal of God from society. This dark force is associated with the bronze molten bull, reflecting actions similar to those of Baal in biblical times. The progression from worshipping Baal to Ashtor signifies a shift towards the sexual revolution of the 1960s, overturning traditional biblical morality on sexuality, family, and marriage. Understanding this "dark Trinity" sheds light on the historical and cultural implications of rejecting God's authority, leading to moral decay, societal unrest, and the erosion of foundational values.

Ashtor's priesthood included men dressing as women, performing in her temples, and even undergoing surgical transitions, reflecting her impact on gender identity and sexuality. By understanding Ashtor's historical influence, one can grasp the complexities of societal norms and gender roles shaped by spiritual entities, highlighting the importance of upholding biblical values and principles in the face of cultural challenges.
