Study Spiritual Matters and Simultaneously Fight against Satan

The Gospels present some psychic phenomena as critical events showing power of the God and Christ Jesus in addition to miracles by Christ Jesus.

Sometimes the God's voices were heard by people around Christ Jesus.  Satan challenged Christ Jesus in the wilderness.  The spirits of Moses and Elias appeared in a mountain.  Devils got out of a certain mad man and eve from many swine.  The spirit of Christ Jesus appeared to some followers after His death on the cross and finally ascended to Heaven while His followers were watching.  And, the voice of Christ Jesus fell on St. Paul, which made him repent and convert to Christianity.

From the beginning, Christ Jesus was born by Mary who had become pregnant due to holy spirit.  And, after His death on the cross and ascension to Heaven, Christ Jesus as a spirit guided St. Paul, St. Peter, etc., while holy sprits came down to His followers hiding in Jerusalem so as to make them speak and praise the glory of the God in foreign languages other than Hebrew or Aramaic.

Indeed, without admitting existence of holy spirits, the Gospels cannot be understood.  Elisabeth Kübler-Ross (1926 - 2004) and Raymond A. Moody, Jr. (1944 -), medical scientists who contributed to the modern study on near-death-experiences and the afterlife, also reported that they had seen and communicated with some spirits of dead men.  Due to their works, the general public has somewhat come to acknowledge the existence of the spirit world and the life after death, which is revolutionary in a sense.

Looking back to the history, Emanuel Swedenborg who reported his communications with spirits in Heaven was born in 1688 when Sir Isaac Newton (1643-1727) whose major secret interest was study on the Bible was alive and active.  So, the great modern scholar in the spiritual domain and the great modern science pioneer shared the same period of history.  Or immediately before the age of scientific and industrial revolution, the God sent a great spiritual scholar to the human world.

What's more, as Albert Einstein was born in 1879 and died in 1955, Kübler-Ros and Moody shared some period of time with Einstein who had opened a new era of the modern science to override theories of Newton.

Therefore, when the human kind opened a new era with development of science and looked like forgetting sooner or later spiritual matters, the God sent some holy spirts to some scientists such as Swedenborg, Kübler-Ros and Moody, since they seemed to have some faith in the God or Christ Jesus.

Finally, we should remind ourselves that the Western civilization, including the modern science, in these 2000 years has been based on Christianity, which is based on teachings of Christ Jesus, and the Gospels reporting works of Christ Jesus are based on recognition of existence of spirits and the spirit world.

Put simply, this material world is under the spirit world controlled by the God who is said in the Bible to be also Spirit that governs other spiritual entities.  And, when men die, they leave their bodies in this world to enter into the spirit world, although evil men fall into the hell to be finally destroyed by the God.

Therefore, the God has been giving warnings to the mankind being absorbed in material wealth so as for them not to forget the spiritual matters and the spiritual meaning of the Gospels: Men can survive death in this world to live in the spirit world but only poor and faithful men can enter into Heaven.

However, there is one important issue: Satan also lives in the spirit world.  So, only faithful scientists who study spiritual matters and at the same time fight against Satan can be trusted.

Matthew 8, King James Version
8 When he was come down from the mountain, great multitudes followed him.
2 And, behold, there came a leper and worshipped him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.
3 And Jesus put forth his hand, and touched him, saying, I will; be thou clean. And immediately his leprosy was cleansed.
4 And Jesus saith unto him, See thou tell no man; but go thy way, shew thyself to the priest, and offer the gift that Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them.
