In
vol 8 No 4, we discussed New Agers’ description of their mission as
“externalizing the Hierarchy” . They
believe that a group of invisible entities known as the “Hierarchy” has been in
charge of affairs on planet earth for eons, and that those folks have now
determined that the time is ripe for them to manifest themselves as direct
players in the field of government, business, education and other spheres of
human existence on the planet.. The
climax of such “externalization”, according to ardent new agers, will be the
coming of a messianic Mr Fix-it-all guy
, adoringly called the “Coming One”
Of
course Christians understand that this so-called “Hierarchy” is nothing but a
cheap conclave of demons who are getting more desperate to
partake in activities on this planet as
they discern the imminent coming of their ultimate nightmare - the Lord Jesus
Christ! (Rev 12:12). And the “Coming One” new agers are frantically preparing
the ground for is none else but the antichrist, the man of sin.
Adopting
similar terminology, we may describe current developments in the area of
science and technology as attempts to “ regularize the arcane.” Strenuous efforts are being made to translate
to regular everyday technology, what used to pass for arcane or occult
knowledge not too long ago. This not
only makes such knowledge more easily available and deployable, it also makes
it more acceptable in many cases.
For
example, concepts such as thought control. hypnosis, teleportation and
telekinesis, zombiesm, etc have been around for probably as long as man has
been on this planet. All these are well
established in both the Bible and occult sources; and they are recognized as
“spiritual exercises” (though most are really operations in the realm of the
human soul, rather than the spirit). Now
as mankind approaches the climax of the soulish pathway it chose when Adam and
Eve bit into the forbidden fruit of the tree of knowledge, it would seem no one
needs to be “spiritual” anymore before accessing these previously esoteric
dimensions. With the right apps, the
arcane is now becoming available in a regular, scientific manner. As we have
written before, the bio-implantable microchip seems to be the key product
providing this link between the arcane and regular technology.
To
cut the story short, it can be surmised that all the key developments in
science and technology have been such to develop the bio-implantable microchip
into an indispensable product for living here on earth in the near future. For now, the chip which gets more
miniaturized month after month -
allowing it to accommodate more functions,
is providing solutions in
identity management, commerce, access control, wireless telecommunication (as in Google
Glass ), etc. These and many others are described in our
previous articles (e.g. vol 9 no 4, vol 9 no 5 and vol 10 no 3).
The
new trend now, which is taking the implantable microchip to a new level is in
the combination of these previous
applications with new applications in the area of human health. What began as applications in monitoring of
health status of some vulnerable population
(e.g. elderly, infirm, infants, etc) and automatic wireless
communication of such status to some experts in case of emergency, has now
spread to the rest of the
population. The clear direction is to be
able to use the implantable microchip to automically dispense internally needed
therapy and medication. Who can argue
against such applications
We
are currently at the point of deploying implanted microchip arrays to deliver
various health products including vaccines for family planning, and for emerging diseases with potentials of
becoming pandemic (think for instance about ebola or SARS). This latest initiative, driven by none else
than Mr Bill Gates, is described in an article at http://www.cnet.com/news/remote-controlled-chip-implant-could-be-the-future-of-contraceptives/
. It is capable of keeping a woman
sterilized for up to 16 years..
As
usual, after glamorizing the potential benefits of this kind of development,
the real core problems are glossed over.
Describing a particular product being developed at MicroCHIPS in
Lexington, Massachusetts, the article concludes with the following words:
“While the chip has demonstrated a variety of uses, encrypting it to protect
against a data breach is still a problem that needs resolving as the team hopes
to move forward to FDA approval and an eventual market
launch by 2018.“ A recent article in
Prophecy News Watch catalogues ways in which microchip implants are becoming
literally indispensable in modern society.
It concludes that microchip implants are in fact going to be “Not
Optional” in matter of time. (www.prophecynewswatch.com/2014/April28/281.html
What is being casually glossed over here is the big
problem of other parties remotely accessing and controlling the implanted chip
– and therefore the implanted person.
While the world is made to think of this problem in terms of hackers and
purveyors of malwares and viruses, the real problem , according to the Bible,
is actually the people who developed and will manage the technology! Especially
when one understands that the whole point about most of our technology today is
about regularizing the arcane so as to hasten the externalization of the
Hierarchy! With so many apps already
linked with the implanted microchip, what is there to stop some government
institution, (even if not now, sometime in the future), from remotely accessing
the microchip thereby turning it into a
tool for mass control of the population?
The Bible suggests that this scenario will certainly play out at some
stage on this planet!
Christians of course can continue to participate both
in the development and use of even this line of technology (short of receiving
implants, of course!) But we must be
soundly aware where it will all lead eventually, while jealously and diligently
guarding our hearts! For instance,
availability of GIS-devices and remote traffic monitor should not lead to the
neglect of prayer and seeking of guidance from the Holy Spirit. Indeed with all the known and yet unknown
hazards associated with most of modern technology, the best access to sound
health still remains via the stripes of the Lord Jesus Christ and not some
nice-looking latest gadget. Emerging technology
may multiply knowledge and make it more readily available, but there is still
no other source for wisdom than via the fear of God (Psalm 111:10; Prov.1:7, 2:5,)
. Spirit-minded Christians must prefer the tree of Life to that of Knowledge.
(Rom 8:1-6).
