so kid what was Azusa Street ???
I need to be careful here as I don’t want to start a critical debate by identifying specific groups. So instead, allow me to identify the criteria I have found in the “false” situations. I have traveled and visited many services of many denominations just to observe first hand the process involved.
This process is also used in Black Theology such as Reverend Jeremiah Wright. It takes away the logical ability to discern truth from non-truth and causes a person to surrender to the group mentality.
I share this for information purposes only to help people discern. If anyone uses it to manipulate or control other people in a harmful way, they are responsible to God for their actions.
Step one: Shout and then whisper. The purpose of this is to get people to lock onto your voice and focus. It’s the same reason a hypnotist has a person focus on an object.
Step two: Tell a very sad story and then a happy story. This is easy to do with testimonials. Music will also amplify this process. The purpose is to destabilize a person’s consciousness so they are more emotional and horizontally dependent upon the group leader. It’s the reason a hypnotist swings the pendulum often used in an induction.
Step three: Induce guilt, fear, or anger. This is very easy to do in a religious setting. What you are doing is to knock the person totally off balance by extreme movement of the destabilization you started in step two. this is why the Democratic party kept demonizing G W Bush. This also why Hitler created the Jews as an enemy of the people to pull them together.
Step four: The “I have your only solution” stage. You are causing the destabilized person to lock onto you for stability. They actually surrender to you. The people follow you blindly and experience whatever you say, even to the point of creating a placebo effect of healing or miracle appearance events in you.
I am a trained stage hypnotist, although I will never use the training. I took the training just to learn how religious leaders use the techniques.
People who are subject to the above steps will speak in tongues, pass out, appear drunk with the spirit, and will swear on a Bible they are filled with the spirit and born again. It is totally fake and has nothing to do with the real experience.
When I first observed this process, an evangelist was speaking to a group of about 80 well educated Christians at a Christian Businessman’s Association Meeting where I was a guest. They fell for it hook, line, and sinker. Observing this process made me physically sick.
As I left the event I ask in prayer why I was led to see such an atrocity and I heard the answer from above: “This is how the anti-messiah will mislead the people.
Needless to say, it was quite sickening to see our president use these same techniques during the primary and general election.
DO NOT ALLOW MY DESCRIPTION OF THE FALSE PROCESS TO IN ANY WAY DISCOUNT THE REAL PROCESS WHICH IS VERY SIMILAR WHEN EXPERIENCED.
