This form of self-transformation is also referred to as self-righteousness ( Romans 10-3), while in truth you follow after a image of a false god and a false Christ ( Matthew 24:24; Mark 13:22; Gal. 4:8; Rev. 12:9). This is how Satan has transformed himself into an angel of light ( 2 Cor. 11:13-15) and deceived the whole world ( Rev. 12:9), as people by nature are in fact children of the devil ( Acts 13:10).

Gal. 1:11,12. The gospel which was preached of me is not after man. For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ ( Daniel 12:4,9; Amos 3:7; Matthew 16:17; Luke 2:26; Romans 16:25; 1 Cor. 2:10; Gal. 1:16; Eph. 3:3,5; Rev. 1:1).

The Word of God is God ( John 1:1) and the scriptural references we use serve as confirmation that it is not us that speak, but the Spirit of our Father that speaketh in us ( 2 Samuel 23:2; Matthew 10:20; Acts 4:8; 6:10).

Narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it ( Matthew 7:14).

Seek, and ye shall find ( Matthew 7:7).

Hello again Fred, just did an internet search on this and it is common to ancient Egypt religious thought, Hindu and Buddhist thought, the occult and New Age. So, in my opinion, referring to or encouraging that anyone should indulge their interest in the third eye is against God's holy ways. It is.. in essence, witchcraft and sorcery, of which we are told again and again to not participate in.

Thank you for bringing this up. I have not read a post on this in the last year or so that I have been on here, so it is good to speak to ideas that are "floating" around in the secular world and among believers, too. We need to be wise about these things, but remain innocent in refusing to participate in them in any way.

Hi Fred, From my understanding, the "third eye" is an occultic idea. I don't think I have ever read about it in the Scriptures.

Idolatry comes in many sizes and places

Understanding the love of God toward man will require a oness with the Father. We believe we have access through His Son Jesus into the things to those who believe. How we reach others who believe otherwise will take God's language

I will remove it for that reason.

Thank you Fred, and God bless you. there are so many ideas out there and we should test them. It is wise not to test them alone but within the community of believers according to the word of God.
