Chapter 5
Satan's influence on people
Satan was, is, and likely always will be humanity's greatest enemy. He is undoubtedly the most dangerous being, surpassing in his evil anything imaginable. I have written about this in all my works. I will add one more assertion: he was and continues to be the primary source of evil in tragic events in human history. According to the essenceism system, all evil created by humans stems from him. We see this most often in the form of evil political power, because that is the most glaring. It is also visible when conflicts erupt in the form of wars, especially global wars. These greatest wrongs are accompanied by so-called lesser evils, which are not always as small as they seem. Perceiving lies, pride, and social injustice, we do not always realize that they can transform into even worse phenomena.
Satan, as the transformed guardian of the first humans, continues to exploit his position to dominate individuals. At the beginning of history, he was supposed to teach the use of love, so that it could serve as a system organizing social life. After reversing the power of love, which gave rise to the power of authority, Satan continues to "guard" important individuals to teach them to wield the power of authority on his behalf. This grants him permanent dominion over humanity. Therefore, leaders infected with the virus of power originating from Satan in various countries easily gain power. Although they may be unaware of Satan's influence on their personalities, they use it to control the minds of many people, who then submit to them and blindly follow their orders. Such individuals, with their satanic power, spread coercion, fear, and even death. We know these phenomena from the actions of leaders, often political criminals, who continue to create tyrannies and totalitarian regimes and destroy democracy.
So how does Satan control our world?
According to the essenceism system, he does this through political, financial, and religious structures directed by the people he controls. This means that because of the fallen nature inherited from him, we are constantly susceptible to his influence. According to essenceism, since the dawn of our civilization, Satan has constantly found individuals completely obedient to him. It's difficult today to fully assess the enormity of the evil they have wrought, as time has largely erased the traces of the crimes of kings, emperors, and other rulers. These individuals were able to gather a large group of followers around them, who together committed much evil, not only in their own nations but also on a broader scale. We know of figures from recent years such as Hitler, Mao-Tse-tung, Stalin, and Putin, who elevated their crimes to the highest levels. Through the power of their evil power, they subjugated large numbers of people, who together created mechanisms of genocide leading to the deaths of millions of human beings. Describing these times, one comes to the conclusion that Satan is primarily behind this mechanism of evil. This means that Satan and his demons created a model power structure upon which criminal individuals are modeled. Therefore, analyses of essenceism consistently demonstrate that Satan rules us through those in power, whether political, religious, or financial, that are subservient to him.
Therefore, the influence of various global structures controlled by Satan constantly influences our will, and therefore our fate. This mechanism is very powerful. As I wrote earlier, this primarily concerns the ability to control political leaders, who influence millions of people. Both they and those directly influenced by them almost never change their views regarding their will to dominate others. For this reason, Satan has always had at his disposal political leaders who can exert a significant influence on the fate of nations, and even all of humanity. They are most often under the control of the "master of this world," often appearing in various nations as menacing, criminal rulers. These individuals are often similar to one another. They usually have a strongly demoralized but strong personality. They are also deaf to criticism and lack objective self-assessment. Such people were the cruel, criminal rulers who tormented entire nations for thousands of years. People like them also appear in our times, and we still experience suffering because of their activities.
The leaders described above, primarily political ones, often use populism and lies to gain power. This is because their hidden master is Satan himself, whom Jesus called the father of lies. These leaders are therefore controlled by Satan, without even realizing it. Thanks to his power, Satan can largely control their personalities. This is when the mechanism for creating a totalitarian system begins to operate. Such a political leader, "haunted" by the "master of this world," gathers around himself followers who adore him. He teaches them to lie and hate, so that they can then teach these lies and hatred to other citizens. They then formulate these lies so that they appear as truth. They also proclaim that their actions are a manifestation of love for others. An additional evil is that people who follow such a leader, "haunted" by Satan, lose their moral restraints, creating evil while convinced of the righteousness of their actions. They defend their accepted views with a stubborn belief in their righteousness or with cynicism stemming from a desire to cling to power and profit from their privileged position. Sometimes, they even surpass their leader in their evil behavior, subconsciously feeling that he is responsible for everything they do. Perhaps they are following the example of fallen angels called demons or evil spirits, of which Satan has many around him. Thus, followers of a leader possessed by Satan gradually succumb to the influence of the evil spiritual world. They form a very powerful team, strengthening their power with an obedient army and police to control society. They then often resort to fear and terror. An extreme example of this mechanism was the not-so-distant reign of Adolf Hitler. This criminal leader was able, within a few years, to transform a large portion of his country's citizens into criminals who murdered millions of Europeans.
Essenceism, examining Satan's activity, also explains that there are, however, few individuals who can free themselves from his control. Hope is offered by those who, at various times and at crucial moments in history, have not succumbed to Satan's influence. Even at the cost of their lives, they have been able to oppose him and do much good for all of humanity. A remarkable example of someone who has never succumbed to the influence of Satan or any other evil being from the spiritual world is Jesus Christ. He inherited from the Father of humanity a pure personality endowed with a primordial nature. This enabled him to stand against Satan and his evil demons. Meanwhile, all other people on Earth possess two natures, both primordial and fallen, of which, unfortunately, the latter is dominant. This is why they are so susceptible to Satan's influence.
In summary, according to essenceism, only individuals led by the Son of God have the chance to restore our world to one consistent with the Creator's concept. Their method for defeating Satan often involved transferring the power of love from one individual to another. This method is somewhat reminiscent of the spread of a virus that, by passing from person to person, could take over the entire world. The COVID-19 pandemic demonstrated this, as its ability to spread was unstoppable. In its spread from person to person, it did not rely on any political, financial, or religious power structure. This method of defeating Satan—using the "virus of love"—was proposed two thousand years ago by Jesus Christ, who took upon himself the mission of fully saving the world from evil. He wanted to teach individuals to prepare them for the role of missionary globetrotters. His goal was for those "infected" by Him with the "virus of love" to spread throughout the world, imparting knowledge of the Heavenly Father and His love. They would simultaneously inspire others like themselves to further spread the "virus of love".
