Read the scriptures below and follow me carefully.
Jude 1:11-25 KJV
Woe unto them! for they have gone in the way of Cain, and ran greedily after the error of Balaam for reward, and perished in the gainsaying of Core. "They have gone the way of Cain." Who?
Let's journey back to the dawn of humanity, to the story of Cain, the first son of Adam and Eve, who tragically killed his brother, Abel, as recorded in Genesis 4:1-16. Fast-forward 4000 years, and we find Jude, in his epistle (Jude 1:11), using Cain as a caution for those who had strayed from the path. But how did these individuals, so far removed from Cain's time, come to embody his character?
How do people replicate the attitude and manifest the character of men who lived 4000 years or more before their time? This article focuses on uncovering that. Remember, it is a book in the making, but I must give you a piece of the pie. "And ran greedily after the error of Balaam for reward."
We know Balaam, the first 'Profit' who masqueraded as a Prophet. You could hire Balaam to prophesy for or against anyone at any time if the pay was high. (Numbers 22). How do people in the present repeat history as the scripture says, "And run greedily after the error of Balaam for reward? "
Jezebel, as we know, was the wife of Ahab, notorious for idolatry and perversion. (1 Kings 16:31). Thousands of years later, the Lord warned about a woman he described as Jezebel in Revelation 2:20-23.
The examples are numerous throughout Scripture. The question begging for an answer is, HOW DOES NEGATIVE HISTORY REPEAT ITSELF? We must understand that the invisible world rules the visible world. Ephesians 6:10-18
The invisible world doesn't only have God and his angels at work but also Demonic spirits, principalities, powers, and rulers of darkness under the headship of Satan. Ephesians 6:10-14. These forces orchestrated, programmed, and initiated many negative historical events in individuals, families, nations, etc.
Since spirits don't die, the same spirit that moved Cain to kill his brother thousands of years in history is still alive and moving around and can move an individual to kill another out of envy or a nation to commit genocide against their flesh and blood today.
Negative history repeats itself because most people open themselves to the ancient spirits behind certain negative historical events, and the spirits move them to repeat the same actions, although on a different scale or magnitude in the present.
For instance, the same spirits behind the false teachers and prophets throughout history that inspired their false doctrines and prophecies are still alive today, inspiring some purported preachers to unconsciously spread false teachings and prophecies, thinking they are operating in deeper realms or revelations. There is nothing new under the sun. (Ecclesiastes 1:9). Since their gullible followers aren't acquainted with the church's history and the diverse false teachings and prophecies that have attempted to find their way into the church through various false teachers and prophets (Jude 1:4), they fall cheaply into their gross deceptions, thinking it is some new realm or revelation from God.
If you are acquainted with the history of false teachers and prophets, you can easily see those bearing the same spirits today.
How does one escape the pitfall of repeating negative history? You must study Biblical and contemporary history, stay close to the Lord, and, most importantly, sharpen your discernment. Remember, you have a 98% chance of repeating any history you don't know.
This is deeper than I have expounded on, but I must end here due to time constraints. May the Holy Spirit, our divine guide, grant everyone reading more understanding. Amen
