I am resting my main topic and my main points on the fact that the ''The synagogue of Satan is located in the churches—in The Church!''
And I will say again that what my post is all about is trying to put together some deeper knowledge on the very great evil happening in the Church.
With that said, I would like to expand on my point regarding hypnotism in the Church and confirm my suspicions. The quote is just informational, the author claims to be looking at this phenomena from a strictly psychological point of view, and I think that people here will find it very interesting:
The 5 Stages of Hypnosis
A typical hypnotherapy session contains five stages:
1. Introduction
2. Induction
3. Deepening
4. Suggestion and;
5. Awakening.
It is the contention of this author that the same five stages can be found within most Christian church services. The hypnotic techniques employed during church sessions have served to further entrench Christian beliefs into the minds of Christian subjects and so demonstrates the mentally manipulative religious package offered by the Christian religion.
According to professional hypnotists, the subject's mind must contain four primary criteria in order for the hypnosis to work. The acronym is known in the profession as, B.I.C.E:
1. Belief
2. Imagination
3. Conviction and;
4. Expectation
These elements are generally found in abundance in the mind of the true believing, church going Christian. Generally, those who attend church believe that their pastor or preacher is speaking the word of god, which has very powerful psychological implications and satisfies the first criteria of the list above. Further, the church goer’s imagination is engaged at almost all times throughout the service, during the singing, the sermon, the prayer and it is probably the hardest working aspect of the four criteria set out above. Next, professional hypnotists say that the subject must have conviction and the stronger the better! There is almost nothing in this world that inspires conviction, like one’s religious beliefs. The attendee is convinced that the church service is permeated by the spirit of their god, which leads to the expectation, that they will “feel the spirit.” In truth, the elation one gets from “feeling the spirit” may be little more than the pleasure and catharsis of entering a trance.
In many services, not all, but many, music will be played while the collection plate is being passed around. During which time, the preacher, pastor or minister, will be saying something like “give to god”, “give to Jesus” repeatedly. Well he did suffer immensely and die for you! The least you could do is give him a few dollars, right! The truth is, as shocking a revelation as this might be to some Christians; Jesus does not get the money! With believers already in a highly suggestible state, the peer pressure and repeated suggestion, “give to god” places both conscious and subconscious pressure on the congregant to pay the church money.
There are many denominations of Christianity each with their own slightly unique order of service, however there are commonalities between most Christian services and these commonalities are designed to mentally manipulate the participant via trance induction, so that their subjective beliefs about god and the truth never come into question.
