Classic Christianity – Book of Hebrews P20 (10-11-23)
Jesus, God in Flesh is/was the Only Truly Normal Man From God’s Perspective
~ We live in a world where man sets himself up as the final authority on all things instead of God. We ignore the word of God and go to all types of human institutions to try and figure ourselves and our children out. We pump ourselves up with pharmakeia (drugs and poisons) in order to try and change our behaviors. And even in fear we take things that quite frankly are what the word of God refers to as sorcery, pharmakeia. But most don’t believe that. They continue to trust in man instead of God. Take a close look at the details of the word pharmakeia in Greek. It’s directly where we get big pharma from, and it means exactly what it says below. Pay attention to the details.
