Where do you get that information from? The spirit of error being called Legion?
Thanks for the reply. It is something I keep on the back burner on candle simmer. It’s a little lengthy hope you can bear with my rambling.
Satan is the opposing spirit (singular) he has no DNA. He needs DNA to perform his deception .The father of lies used a serpent who at one time was the most beautiful creature in the garden by putting his lying thoughts on its forked tongue mankind was corrupted. The glory of God departed . Or Peter in Mathew 16 when the spirit of error Satan rebuked the Son of man Jesus forbiding him from doing the will of His unsen father. . again to show the spirit of error has no form or substance
That I believe can be seen in the way of describing the work of one antichrist (singular Satan) who works in many antichrists (many humans) . . a legion of lying spirits coming from one source the opposing spirit of error. Again Peter was used as one of antichrists that were there another kind of teacher in the end forbidding the Son of man, Jesus from performing the good news the gospel of our salvation.
The Holy Spirit demanded that the antichrist Satan get behind him not seen and not Peter seen . He had no faith as a desire to do the will and fled the scene. The Lord rebuked that spirit of lies . Get behind me, not Peter seen.
Reminding us to walk by faith the unsen eternal.
Note . . .
(parenthesis ) my additon as part of my offering.
1 John 2:18 Little children, it
is the
last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist
(singular) shall come, even now are there many antichrists (
legion) ; whereby we know that it is the
last time.
Peter was forgiven of his blasphemy against the Son of man seen. . it cannot be forgiven against the Holy Spirit not seen
On one occasion Jesus asked one of the antichrists his name he said legion for we are many . One name to represent many or all.
Luke 8:30 And Jesus asked him, saying, What is thy name? And he said,
Legion: because
many devils were entered into him.
He is also called the man of sin because without mankind (DNA) he has no voice. In that way no man can serve two teaching authorities as one good master and Lord, not seen.
The same spirit of error is shown as the antichrist (false teacher) working in Saul the first king of Israel as one of the legion of antichrists (another teaching master) Saul had been cut off from all manners of prophecy the one true teaching master. .
When inquiring of a Witch through necromancy the question came up. . how does the witch identify the one in a hope of communing with that which is called workers (legion) with a familiar spirit in the Bible, a legion (gods) came up? A image as a description or idol image a teraphim like the one Rachel hid from her father was needed to put a face on the legion . God sent a strong delusion so that Saul could continue to seek after the legion. In the end Saul bowed down to the dust from where he came from .
1 Samuel 28:12-14 King James Version (KJV) And when the woman saw Samuel, she cried with a loud voice: and the woman spake to Saul, saying, Why hast thou deceived me? for thou art Saul. And the king said unto her, Be not afraid: for what sawest thou? And the woman said unto Saul, I
saw gods ascending out of the earth. And he said unto her, What form is he of? And she said, An old man cometh up; and he is covered with a mantle. And Saul perceived that it was Samuel, and he stooped with his face to
the ground, and bowed himself.
The bowing of oneself to oneself.
Another example is displayed in the New Testament again of the work of what I call “the legion of gods" plural It would be trusting in the things seen as evidence (the temporal seen ) rather than that of one God doing his unseen work in mankind.
Those who have no faith as
it is written made the apostles in Acts 14 into a legion of Greek gods after the philosophies of this world and not after Christ.
There the unseen power of the gospel is preached and God moving Paul to place his hands on the person as request he might be healed .Hands equal the will in the Bible .In that way like the folding of hands or bowing down it is a pear to God. Those that witnessed falsely attributed the work of healing to the literally hands of the apostles. They created the apostles in their own Imagination or image in effect saying .the legion has come down in the likeness of humans .They di not mix faith the eternal in the gospel understanding.
Acts14 :7-12 And there they
preached the gospel.And there sat a certain man at Lystra, impotent in his feet, being a cripple from his mother's womb, who never had walked:
The same heard Paul speak: who stedfastly beholding him, and perceiving that he had faith to be healed,
Said with a loud voice,
Stand upright on thy feet. And he
leaped and walked. And when
the people saw what Paul had done, they lifted up their voices, saying in the speech of Lycaonia, The
gods (legion) are come down to us in the
likeness of men. And they called Barnabas,
Jupiter; and Paul,
Mercurius, because he was the chief speaker.
The same applies to the Ten Commandments it could read . #1 Thou shall have no legion before me. rather than other gods
2 Corinthians 5:7 (For we
walk by
faith, not by
sight
