The four Gospels report a number of miracles that Jesus performed when with his disciples. Certain scholars point to these miracles as evidence against the Gospels having historical information. Did Jesus really heal blind and lame people and cast out demons from possessed individuals?According to Dr. Craig Keener, we should not exclude such reports that come from “eyewitness material,” from contemporaries who experienced Jesus as an exorcist and healer of various ailments
Last month (November, 2023), I wrote an article where I identified the name of the head demon I believed represented the USA today, which is "Columbia", a female deity that also goes by "Lady Liberty" or "Freedom" in modern times since the USA was founded in 1776. In ancient times she has been known by other names, such as “Ashtoreth”, a female fertility "god" known in Old Testament times, or "Artemis", the name she was given in the New Testament times under the rule of the ancient Roman empire. Another manifestation of this demon of the United States of America is in the "Statute of Freedom" which stands tall on top of the U.S. Capitol dome in Washington D.C., where members of the U.S. Congress meet in the legislative branch of the U.S. government. Latin was the language of the former Roman Empire, and the District of Columbia in the United States is full of these Latin phrases, as well as Roman architecture. Is there really any doubt that the United States is the "revived Roman Empire" which many believe is prophesied in the Bible to be the "Great Prostitute", or that Washington D.C. is at the seat of Freemasonry and Satanism in the world today? If so, what does biblical prophecy say is going to happen to this "Beast" and the "Great Prostitute" in the "last days"?

Perhaps Huxley and Jagger are prophets with the same message. A quote often attributed to G. K. Chesterton captures it well: “Meaninglessness does not come from being weary of pain, but it comes from being weary of pleasure.”
