Pious Pilgrimage

“These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off were assured of them, embraced them and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.”

Cannibalism: Pattern in Prophecy

A topic that is centuries old but is making a comeback today is cannibalism.  Cannibalism is still rightly defined by Merriam-Webster as “ritualistic eating of human flesh by a human being.”  The verb cannibalizing is used today to describe a negative effect, for  example the local news reported that building to many casinos too close to each other would be cannibalizing the  Industry.   Cannibalism is one of those things that are naturally inherently wrong.  Even in a natural survival event turning to cannibalism, like the Donner party in 1846, seems unnatural and regrettable. But cannibalism is fundamental in the occult, and in their activities and practices, and it seems to be done relating to or as a ceremony or rite.  Eating human flesh and drinking blood is very common in the occult, so common they accuse the Christian of doing the same.  Transubstantiation is the go to pro-cannibalism argument.  Transubstantiation is a whole other argument, but what we don’t see is the practice of cannibalism in the New Testament with communion.  At the last supper Christ did not cut himself, so the disciples could drink blood , they used wine, also Christ did not cut his flush off to consume, He used bread. After Christ died on the cross no one consumed His body. 

The word demon has interesting origins, Kurt Koch explains the meaning in his book, “Demonology, Past and Present”, “during my missionary travels, I have on several occasions come across the terrible customs of eating the dead.  This custom was prominent among the Pacaas Novos, a tribe of Indians living on the border between Brazil and Bolivia. There are two types of corpse eating: a ritual form and a common form. The chief, the witch doctor and the elders of the tribe participate in the ritual form. The relatives and the kinsmen of the deceased take part in the common or familiar form.   The meaning of the word demon  can be traced back to this custom which has been practiced among the heathen for thousands of years. The word demon contains the Greek root dia or daiomai meaning to divide, to tear, to portion out. People who ate their dead were therefore called demons or dividers”  

2 Kings 6:28-29

28 And the king asked her, “What is your trouble?” She answered, “This woman said to me, ‘Give your son, that we may eat him today, and we will eat my son tomorrow.’ 29 So we boiled my son and ate him. And on the next day I said to her, ‘Give your son, that we may eat him.

Moses and other prophets prophesied that, if the Israelites abandoned God, they would fall into such demonic activities like cannibalizing their own children, and this was fulfilled during the siege of Samaria during the reign of King Jehoram. Cannibalism was the physical horror which accompanied the spiritual horror of apostasy. Now fast-forward to today and you got 

New York Times, “A Taste for Cannibalism”

This is come as no surprise, we have abandon God ourselves, and history always repeats itself which is why to the Hebrew mind prophecy is a pattern.

We are to advanced and sophisticated for such barbaric activities right?

There is a San Diego based biotech company called Senomyx, in which I will let you do your own research on mainly because you would not believe me if I told you what they do.  One hint on the subject from executive Director of children of God for life, Debi Vinnedge, states, “just one of over 75 patents on file in which the aborted fetal cells are utilized, Senomyx states in US Patent number 7,297,543: “The invention provides a preferred mammalian cell lines, e.g., HEK-293 cells that stably express T1R2/T1R3 and G.sub..alpha.15 under inducible conditions. These cells are useful in cell-based assays for identifying compounds that elicit or modulate sweet taste.”

If you are surprised by the events unfolding today it may be a clear indicator of the distance in your relationship with Christ.
