Delusion’s Ultimate Delusion of Self-Good

Delusional Trap of Missing the True Delusion of Self as Good

Delusion’s Ultimate Delusion of Self-Good;
Doing What is Right in One’s Own Eyes

Paul describes God as sending, or allowing, people to believe Satan’s strong delusion so they will believe what is not Truth; i.e., The Trinity is Truth (Jn 4:24; 14:6; 15:26; 2Th 2:9-12). But, this is not a new revelation for the Bible early on showed that people do what is right in their own eyes; that is, they do what they have decided is truth for them (De 12:8; Ju 17:6; 21:25). The Bible makes the case that to follow one’s own way as true is the mark of a fool rebelling against God (Pr 12:15; 21:20). One’s own imaginations is the mark of a child and according to Hollywood, especially Disney, adults should return to the mind of a child to embrace goodness (Ge 6:5; Pr 22:15; 1Co 13:11). In reality, this keeps one trapped in Satan’s ultimate delusion and labeling God as evil (Is 5:20; Mal 2:17; Jn 8:44). Postmodernism is not a new philosophy but an ancient lie begun with Original Sin in the Garden and continues without variance into our future (Ge 3:5).

Beheading of John the Baptist
Example of Depravity on many levels

A friend asked me to help him prepare a lesson on human corruption as demonstrated by the guests of Herod’s who did not condemn him for ordering the beheading of John the Baptist and thus became partners in his demonstration of sinful depravity (Mt 14:1-12; Mk 6:14-29).

Evolutionary Morality an Oxymoron

If Morality Arose from Humanity
Then Humanity Defines Morality

This is an example of circular reasoning, an informal logical fallacy. The conclusion arises from the cause and the cause defines the conclusion; the problem, one has not made a case for the conclusion based on provable premises. Unfortunately, this logical error occurs all too frequently in discussions, especially in the media where time is of the essence so various stereotypical images or types are substituted as proof for one’s forced dilemma conclusion (yes, another logical fallacy).

Tree of Knowledge, Death, Life

Ouroboros Triad
Dragon – Satan

Snake – Man
Tree of Knowledge

As I sat to write this final post of the Ouroboros Triad I had to step away for some reflection. The focus of many is on the tree. Was it an apple, a pomegranate, or was it something that had nothing to do with the type of tree at all?  The issue is not the tree, the issue was, and is, the knowledge of good and evil.
