The word “occult’” means something you can’t know unless you’re initiated. You know what Eve was invited to become a part of? The occult. A secret society of knowledge that you can’t get unless you’re an initiated person, explains Richard Jordan.
Most of this traffics in the religious, spiritual background
and it’s hidden in their symbols and their allegories and their hidden meanings
behind things. They come along and try to draw you in. They invite you to
follow the secretness of it. All the cults are cults of secrecy. I don’t just
mean nobody knows it; I’m talking about you have to be “ illuminated” to get
in.
God already revealed His will; God already gave Eve clear
instructions about it. Satan says, “I know something He doesn’t want you to
know,” and you know what that does? It entices you.
*****
In the quote Satan gives to Eve, “For God doth know that in
the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye
shall be as gods, knowing good and evil,” there are 46 words and the word
“eyes” represents the 33rd word in the quote.
He’s saying, “God’s got a secret knowledge out here, Eve,
and He’s not telling you about it, but if you’re one of the initiated you’ll
know it.” Thirty-three in the Bible is a number associated with illumination,
knowing things.
Have you ever read in the occult, or heard in religion about
“the third eye”? You have two eyes and then they say you have a third eye. You
ever seen people go around with a little red dot on top of their forehead; a
little jewel up there? In some religions that’s called “the third eye” and it’s
an eye of perception that you get in the middle of your forehead.
This is the ability to see into something and have knowledge
that you couldn’t have any other way. It’s secret knowledge that you can only
have IF you are in the initiated. Where you got to go to get that?
Satan’s offering Eve the initiation: “I know something
God doesn’t want you to know, and that you can’t know unless you become one
with me. You know this and you’ll really know what’s going on.”
*****
Ultimately, when the Antichrist is manifested and the system
that brings him to the fore and puts him into power is manifested, it’s that
mystery.
There is a secret purpose, this idea of secret wisdom,
understanding and the GAIN that you can get if you get it that’s associated
with Satan all the way through the Bible. It’s associated with his LIE program.
What do you say about a lie? It can be 98% truth but it’s the 2% that isn’t that kills you. You see, it’s hidden among . . . the “tares are hidden with the wheat” kind of thing and the lie program is all this good, good, good, but there’s that secret thing in it.
Isaiah 33 is a passage dealing prophetically with the nation
Israel in the last days. Isaiah 33: 6 is a verse of scripture I used to keep
posted on my wall. It says, [6] And wisdom and knowledge shall be the
stability of thy times, and strength of salvation: the fear of the LORD is his
treasure.
Eve didn’t have the basic knowledge even straight in her
thinking, so that when Satan came along and offered her this secret knowledge,
she couldn’t say, “NO, I know what the truth is!” She’s over here dreaming up
stuff, leaving stuff out, adding stuff.
Where did she ever get that, “I can’t touch it”? She just
thought, “Well, if I can’t eat it, it must mean I can’t touch it either.” She
made that up in her imagination. She didn’t have the knowledge. That’s where
stability is, in knowing.
*****
God, talking to Moses in Deuteronomy 29:29, says, “The
secret things belong unto the LORD our God: but those things which are revealed
belong unto us and to our children for ever, that we may do all the words of
this law.”
Notice, everything you need to know to do everything God has
for them to do, He revealed to them. If there’s something they don’t know . . .
wasn’t that what Eve was told? “There’s something you don’t know, Eve, that God
knows, and if you knew it, you wouldn’t let him get away with this.” And then
her imagination starts going.
Moses says to Israel, “If there’s a secret that God hasn’t
told you, that’s His business; you don’t have to worry about it. You just worry
about what he told you. Don’t worry about the secret stuff; worry about what He
revealed to you, because what He revealed to you is what He wants you to know.”
You understand God knows things you don’t know? If God took
everything He knows and put it into your little noodle, your brain would be on
the wall.

People say science has advanced us so far. So how come you
can read about an evolutionist 700 years before the time of Christ?
In a passage directed at the unbeliever, Jeremiah 2:27 says,
“Saying to a stock, Thou art my father; and to a stone, Thou hast brought me
forth: for they have turned their back unto me, and not their face: but in the
time of their trouble they will say, Arise, and save us.”
Here are people who think their father is a piece of nature
that the earth produced; they think they evolved out of plant life and stone
life.
You see, evolution is really a religion that is an ancient
religion trying to tell you that where you came from is nature and not God, and
they’ve worked themselves into this religious frenzy of attributing their
source and origin to nature.
So evolution in our day is simply the application of “science
falsely so-called” to the philosophy of pagans that Jeremiah warned Israel
about and has existed since Genesis 11.
The saying, “There’s nothing really new under the sun,” is
really a truth and if you ever talked to someone who is an evolutionist, or
someone who says science disproves the Bible, you’re dealing with those people
back there.
You’re dealing exactly with what they dealt with. It’s a
spiritual problem, and I look at the world around us and I say, “Look at the
mess we’re in!” and when you see it, you say, “Where did it come from?” And
folks, that’s where it comes from. It comes from a spiritual issue.

Psalm 2 says, '[1] Why do the heathen rage, and the
people imagine a vain thing?
[2] The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel
together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying,
[3] Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from
us.'
There’s a conspiracy, there’s a force in the world, a
secret, behind-the-scenes spiritual movement that’s against the God of the
Bible, against the Lord Jesus Christ, against the Word of God, against the Holy
Spirit and against you.
Its purpose is to destroy your life, your family, this
church, WHATEVER that stands for what God’s doing. And they take counsel
together. And there’s an evil, wicked force out there doing it.
*****
There’s a conspiracy for wickedness and it has a name. As
Revelation 17:5 says, 5] And upon her forehead was a name written,
MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE
EARTH.
Revelation 17 says, [1] And there came one of the
seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me,
Come hither; I will shew unto thee the judgment of the great whore that sitteth
upon many waters:
[2] With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication,
and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her
fornication. [3] So he carried me away in the spirit into the
wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names
of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.
Notice she’s been around for a long time. She’s destroyed
many kingdoms in the earth. She goes all the way back to Genesis 11, so this is
not a new character in the earth.
She’s in the wilderness and that’s where you’re going to
find this woman. She’s going to be obsessed with pulling people in with
drunkenness and fornication. That’s not a physical wine; that’s getting them
intoxicated with a spiritual enticement that produces a spiritual adultery.
She’s out there in the wilderness; to find her you’ve got to
go way far away from the springs of living water. You have to go way far away,
be alone, with no bread. That’s what happens in the wilderness. You see, she’s
going to be every place that Book isn’t.
*****
You go find a church today where that Book isn’t preached
and taught, and especially taught rightly divided, you’re going to find her.
And when you get where you learn how to spot her, it’s going to scare you to
death to see her everywhere you go. But knowledge of what’s going on allows you
to have wisdom about how to handle it.
By the way, if you look at Verse 6, it says, “And I saw the
woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs
of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with great admiration.”
You know how they martyred the saints in the Book of the
Revelation? Go to chapter 6 and you see they were “beheaded under that fifth
seal.”
You watch in our day bloodthirsty people out beheading.
Where does the wickedness that would cause you to take children and teach them
to cut people’s heads off? They are “without natural affection,” where you cut
children in two and teach children to cut other people’s heads off.
Listen, there is a genetically designed implanted
understanding in every person that it’s wrong to kill. God put it there. Romans
2 tells you that. Every culture knows that.
But there’s a spirit of evil and wickedness. By the way, that crowd over there in the Middle East that calls themselves Isis, did you know that’s the name of an Egyptian fertility goddess who was married to Osiris, the Sun God, and she was the Moon God. Her symbol was a crescent moon.
