Unveiling the Truth About Schizophrenia and Prophecy

Schizophrenic patients often experience what has been defined as delusions by the mental health industry, with beliefs that vastly differ from societal perceptions of reality, particularly involving fears of mind control or surveillance through technology. Many believe they have a chip implanted in their brain, using brain-computer interface technology, which they believe enables the government to manipulate their thoughts and actions. This belief causes considerable distress, anxiety, and feelings of persecution, making them feel targeted. It significantly affects their daily lives, relationships, and overall mental health.

The phenomenon of "targeted individuals" extends beyond discussions of mental health or advancements in technology—it touches on the realm of spiritual warfare. While activist groups advocate for their rights and skeptics dismiss their experiences as paranoia, the stories shared by targeted individuals suggest something far deeper at play. This is not merely about government conspiracies; it reflects a broader spiritual struggle—a calculated effort by Satan to mislead humanity, as suggested in scripture. Alternatively, these experiences could serve as a divine warning from the Spirit of Christ.

What does it mean to question your reality? To feel pushed to extremes, whether by faith, circumstance, or something difficult to articulate? For centuries, Genesis 22:2 has sparked debate over its language and meaning. The Wycliffe Bible of 1382 uses the term "land of vision", a stark contrast to the more common "region of Moriah" seen in modern translations. But why the difference? Could this shift in language tell us something deeper—not only about divine encounters but also the human psyche?

The distinction between mental illness and demonic possession has been a subject of intense debate throughout history. In ancient times, civilizations such as the Neolithic Peruvians and various African and Oceanic tribes turned to trepanation—a surgical procedure involving the drilling of holes into the skull—to address mental disturbances. This practice was rooted in the belief that such openings could release the malevolent spirits believed to be tormenting the individual. For centuries, this idea shaped both religious rituals and medical approaches, leaving a profound mark on the intersection of spirituality and early medicine.

Have you ever wondered why ancient humans claimed to hear voices from gods or spirits? How do these experiences connect to modern mental health conditions like schizophrenia? Julian Jaynes, a distinguished psychologist, introduced the intriguing concept of the bicameral mind in his seminal 1976 work, The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind. Jaynes posited that our ancestors, even as recently as ancient Greeks, attributed emotions and desires not to their own minds but to the influence of external gods. This mental functioning was widespread about 3,000 years ago during the Bronze Age. Jaynes suggested that ancient humans perceived their thoughts as auditory hallucinations, where one part of the brain "spoke" and the other obeyed, much like prophets in the Bible followed divine commands.

In the Bible, The Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit is a SINGULAR SPIRIST. He is Christ, and He uses symbolic messaging, also known in our world today as subliminal messaging, to speak to us. Some of these subliminal messages are found in the story of Noah and The Ark - baptism from Sin, The Tabernacle - a dwelling place and Egypt - a source for evil. Christians everywhere, including myself do not believe Satan, the False God, the God of this world, (2 Corinthians 4:4) can or even would speak to us like this. Christ, the Eternal God does this, because He wants us to find the TRUTH. In order for us to find this TRUTH, He has given us hints and clues to a treasure hunt. So that we can find His treasure, ETERNAL LIFE. Christ - THE TRUE LIGHT - THE LIGHT THAT ENLIGHTENS EVERYONE- ILLUMINATI. (John 1:9 WYC 1382) Throughout scripture these hints and clues begin in the Old Testament by pointing us to Jesus. (Genesis 3:15, Exodus 12:21, Leviticus 16:21-22, Luke 24:27) These hints and clues teach us to LOOK TO JESUS for our answers. Where Jesus leads us to the TRUTH. He shows us Who Christ is, The Word of God! 

In Part Three of this series, we continue our exploration of the spiritual dimensions of mental health. By diving into scripture, we uncover that the struggles faced by those who experience voices and visions today resonate with the spiritual experiences of major prophets. This segment invites us to look beyond clinical definitions of mental illness and consider the spiritual realities that intersect with our mental and emotional challenges. Join me as we reveal hidden truths within the Bible that challenge conventional Christian views, offering hope and understanding to those navigating the complex journey of spiritual and mental distress, and addressing questions that lead many to doubt the existence of God.

In the first part of this three-part series, I shared my deeply personal experience with psychosis, revealing the intense spiritual battles I faced and the biblical parallels that helped me understand my experience. Moving into Part Two, we will continue to explore the relationship between mental health and spirituality. Examining how modern biblical translations have shaped our understanding of key passages, obscuring the true essence of spiritual warfare and mental afflictions. My goal is to challenge conventional Christian views and illuminate the misunderstood experiences of those who, as I once did, are wrestling with the demonic forces at play in our world.

Today, I had a conversation of faith and madness with an old friend who had witnessed my behavior during my psychosis experience. This was an opportunity for me to explain that what he saw was more than just a mental health issue—it was an intense spiritual experience. We sat down together, and I read him some biblical passages that paralleled what I went through. Through these scriptures, I aimed to bridge the gap between spiritual and mental realms. By drawing these connections, I hoped to illustrate how my experiences align with those described in the Bible, offering a deeper understanding of the spiritual dimensions of what I went through. This conversation not only clarified my past experiences for him but also inspired a three-part blog series. I hope that through these posts, my readers gain insight and understanding into the deeper spiritual aspects of such experiences.

In this blog we will unveil schizophrenia by bridging spirituality, and ancient texts. Schizophrenia is typically labeled and defined as a complex "MENTAL HEALTH CONDITION." It has intrigued humanity since it was first diagnosed and labeled in 1939. However, the symptoms have been present for centuries. As we dive into the mysteries of schizophrenia, we’ll explore biblical perspectives in order to shed light on the TRUTH of what schizophrenia really is.
