To whom it may concern,
I have gone through many of the various topics and threads in this forum, and as I have done so I have noticed a fairly common theme among many of the entries. I think this might be tough medicine for some of you to swallow, but please hear me out. Prior to my own experience with what you all know as Morgellons, I was involved in various aspects of the occult; such as, numerology, astrology, New Age beliefs and interests, and more. Specifically, I was very interested in the "end-times," and the more I involved myself in the occult and end-times pursuits, the greater compulsion I had for more of the same. (Are any of you identifying with any of this?)
As my compulsions drove me further, I began having interests in UFOs, and regrettably, I eventually became certain that God Himself was a creature from a distant planet. I thought that He would probably return sometime around the end of the Mayan calendar to sweep the Christians away in His squadron of spaceships. You see, the information I researched on the internet genuinely seemed to support these beliefs. Everything (the web, alternative news sites, etc) was amazingly lining up to prove my miraculous discovery. But naturally, this belief contradicts what is said in the Bible about God. John 4:24 says, "God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth." Please keep in mind that during this period I was faithfully serving in a large Christian church.
It was also during this time, that I began having my first bouts of "Morgellons." As stated in a previous entry, I began feeling things pinch and sting me. I was having burning sensations on various parts of my body. I felt things moving through my hair, scalp, nose, ears, and across my eyes. Light-bulbs began clicking and often blinking on & off around me. I had sensations of pins & needles affecting me. As much as I have already shared, this is a mere portion of what I went though for well over a year.
Having stated all of this, the Bible makes clear how God views the practices for which I had participated. He considers them "abominations." Abomination is defined as: A cause of abhorrence or disgust.
To support this, please read the King James Version of the following passage from Deuteronomy 18:9-14:
9When thou art come into the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee, thou shalt not learn to do after the abominations of those nations.
10There shall not be found among you any one that maketh his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, or that useth divination (astrology, psychics), or an observer of times, or an enchanter, or a witch.
11Or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a necromancer (consulting dead).
12For all that do these things are an abomination unto the LORD: and because of these abominations the LORD thy God doth drive them out from before thee.
13Thou shalt be perfect with the LORD thy God.
14For these nations, which thou shalt possess, hearkened unto observers of times, and unto diviners: but as for thee, the LORD thy God hath not suffered thee so to do.
As stated in earlier posts, I eventually discovered the true nature of my affliction. The cause of my suffering is really nothing new. This cause has been around since the beginning of creation and it's all plainly revealed throughout God's word. Put bluntly, the cause of my incredible suffering was spiritual evil that I received on account of my participation in sinful activities. Please don't believe that this result is limited to occult participation. You can also be affected by spirits on account of bitterness, perversions, unholy books, movies, and music, and even more. However, the occult and sexual immorality, of which are prevalent in our nation, are significant ports of entry for the evil spiritual realm.
You might ask, "Can this be proven?" I sincerely believe that it can. Begin forgiving everyone you are holding any grudge against, start practicing love, kindness, and humility, and repent of any sinful practices that you are engaged in, and finally start praising God for the sacrifice of His Son on the cross for your sins - and do all of this while listening to songs about the blood of Jesus. Also, confess to God your past sins and begin diligently seeking Him in prayer. If you do these things, I'm confident that many of you will discover the root of your problems - and as difficult as that knowledge might be, you will at least have a clear direction for which to focus all of your energies. And isn't that what you want (besides healing) - simply to know what the heck is causing these truly awful problems? Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or comments. God bless you all.
In Christ Jesus,
Greg
