Hey these are wonderful things and they are all symbolic of the Lord. The whole creation reflects His glory and don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.
I mean the spiritual environment over yourself, of course. Your attention has apparently been focused on evil and demons. And those should be acknowledged to exist in this fallen creation. But evil and demons are not the “stars” of God’s show. Put your trust in the Lord who made these wonderful things — trust to forgive you of sin, trust that as you exalt Him, He will honor that — and you’ll find that the demons haunting various Christian communities (and they do; they attempt to blot out God’s glory but can’t quite do that) won’t have the last say to you about what the communities are in God’s sight. That Pike, in fact, is far too pessimistic about what God has done in the communities.
God bless you, sir. Keep looking up, past evil.
I’d love it if I had lied here. I wish what I said was a lie.
>>I mean the spiritual environment over yourself, of course.
Of course, the one you’ve assumed dominion over.
>>I wish what I said was a lie.
Nobody cursed you, and as with this imaginary curse the “lids and devils” you keep ranting about originated in your own rhetoric and the way you choose to perceive the world and others.
Now you’re just making a fool of yourself and the Gospel — where you’ve also assumed dominion over the purview that belongs to the Holy Spirit.
It is He who changes hearts, not you.
>>I turn this over now to the Lord Jesus Christ
Evidently not.
