"and which have not known the depths of Satan" - Introduce Full Democracy into China and Russia

Introduce Full Democracy into China and Russia

Russia finally invaded Ukraine today.  The Japanese Government is to follow the G7 agreement to impose economic sanctions on Russia.  The world's media are busy reporting situations in Ukraine.

This is the largest military operation by a major country since the U.S invasion into Iraq in 2003 in erroneous response to the 9/11 terror attack.  Or, 31 years after the collapse of the Soviet Union, Russians have finally exercised their military power to secure their influential power.  However, this Russian invasion is more dangerous than various international conflicts in the last decades since the end of WWII in 1945 or the Cuban crisis in 1962 where the U.S. and the Soviet Union were close to a nuclear warfare. 

If you believe the prediction by Issac Newton, the world is now rapidly proceeding to the era of the "start of the end of the world" to be started in 2060.  Newton is an 18th-century scientist well known even today for his study in physics, but he also studied the Bible to know the mystery of the God.  And, after decades of his secret study, he concluded that the end of the world would not start before 2060, which matches the prediction in Swedenborg's book written in the 18th century about the Final Judgement of the Mankind that the Swedish psychic Swedenborg felt in the spirit world coming to the human world. 

Looking back to the days before and after the year 2000, it seems that the 20th century ended with the Chernobyl nuclear disaster in 1986, the deaths of Princess Diana and Mother Teresa in 1997, and the death of JFK Jr. in 1999 in addition to some tragedies in Japan: the great earthquake in Kobe and the sarin gas attack by a cult in Tokyo in 1995.

Then, with the 9/11 Terror Attack in 2001, the global financial crisis starting from Wall Street in 2008, and the worsened relationship since 2010s between the US and China under vulgar Trump's presidency and the undemocratic Chinese Communist Party, the 21st century is all the more accelerating its steps toward the "start of the end of the world" predicted to come around 2060.           

Put simply, the world is rapidly proceeding to the start of the end of the world around 2060 with the current and future ominous pandemics and the fatal tensions between democratic countries led by G7 and the autocratic countries such as China and Russia.  In the worst case, the next 40 years should see another global pandemic and military ventures launched by China, Russia, etc.  And, finally the end of the world should start around 2060.  As a consequence, none will be able to happily go into the 22nd century.

However, there is a Japanese psychic who was assessed as more talented than notable Uri Geller and saw the future of the mankind.  She said that people look very different 10 thousands years later from how they look today.  The history of the mankind seems to continue somehow over the 22nd century despite various crises. 

Anyway, I hope and pray that the mankind can struggle through this critical 21st century relying on their faith in Christ Jesus and the God.

The predictions by Newton and Swedenborg should be modified or recanted by introducing full democracy into China and Russia.

Revelation 2, King James Version

22 Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation, except they repent of their deeds.
23 And I will kill her children with death; and all the churches shall know that I am he which searcheth the reins and hearts: and I will give unto every one of you according to your works.
24 But unto you I say, and unto the rest in Thyatira, as many as have not this doctrine, and which have not known the depths of Satan, as they speak; I will put upon you none other burden.
25 But that which ye have already hold fast till I come.
26 And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations:

"he spake of the temple of his body" - Except a Man be Born of Water and of the Spirit

Except a Man be Born of Water and of the Spirit

Some Japanese psychics think that divine nature is in a human mind.  To achieve enlightenment and obtain salvation, they argue, men must think of themselves to find divinity in the bottoms of their minds.

These psychics can see some spiritual phenomena and even spirits coming from the afterlife to this world, so that they believe existence of spirits of the God, Christ Jesus, the Buddha, etc.  But, as they become so proud of their spiritual ability and enjoy reputation or popularity, they sometimes put too much faith in themselves.  Put extremely, they sometimes regard themselves as peers of Christ Jesus, the Buddha, etc.  So, they believe that there is divinity in their minds and other people.  

In some cases, they finally call themselves a kind of god.  And, interestingly, after they show a tendency of acting like a god or talking like a god, they mysteriously die of some diseases or earlier than average lifetime.

Indeed, no matter how much spiritual ability one has, he is not a man coming from Heaven as long as he was born as a man in this world. 

Christ Jesus made clear the distinction between men born in this world and other men with spirits coming from Heaven:

John 3, King James Version

3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.

4 Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born?

5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.

6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.

8 The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.

Therefor whether or not a man has spiritual power, a man born in this world must be born again through water and the holy spirit in order to be accepted in the kingdom of God and Heaven.

However, a man with spiritual ability to see spirits of deceased men and to know the future of others sometimes becomes a leader of a sect.  Indeed, the spiritual ability is not ordinary and common ability.  A man or a woman who was born with such ability or who acquired it through a near-death experience, other rare events or ascetic training would be proud of his or her ability and might establish a sect or his or her own religion.  But, Satan will surely find a chance to lead such a guru to a hell.

Satan and its evil spirits should give such men with spiritual ability an illusion of their sitting with Christ Jesus or the Buddha in the spirit world and would convince them that they deserve such a position.  They will eventually become arrogant and foolish, harming true followers of the God and Christ Jesus.  Therefore, it is reasonable that the God should interfere with fates of such men.  Any such cults or sects established by them would be suppressed and disappear in time.  Such work by Satan to delude people and give an idea of blasphemy is reported by Swedenborg in his book about the spirit world.

In this context, if a certain spirit haunting a spirit medium delivers any spiritual or religious teachings, we had better think why the strange or foreign spirit but not the spirit of Christ Jesus has come to this world though the spirit medium.  Indeed, there are many reports of such a case where a certain spirit possesses a spirit medium and delivers some spiritual or religious teachings.  If their teachings are similar to those of Christ Jesus, people around the spirit medium should all the more ask the spirit of Christ Jesus to directly come to them.             

To be followers of Christ Jesus, men have to be born again through baptism of water or the holy spirit, but they cannot become followers of Christ Jesus by listening to words of a psychic acting as a guru or some mysterious spirits through spirit mediums.  If a psychic or a spirit medium has ability to invoke a spirit in the spirit world, the spirit of Christ Jesus should be called up.     

Finally, men with spirit ability are not necessarily holy men, and spirits invoked by them from the spirit world are not necessarily as holy as the spirit of Christ Jesus.

Yet, it is regret that the Pope of the Vatican does not or cannot invoke the spirit of Christ Jesus, now in the spirit world, on every occasion when His teaching, instruction, or opinion is needed.

John 2, King James Version

19 Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.
20 Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days?
21 But he spake of the temple of his body.
22 When therefore he was risen from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this unto them; and they believed the scripture, and the word which Jesus had said.
