Revelation 18:23

Revelation 18:23 says “And the light of a candle shall shine no more at all in thee; and the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride shall be heard no more at all in thee: for thy merchants were the great men of the earth; for by thy sorceries were all nations deceived.”

The Greek word for sorceries in this verse is pharmakeia.

"Pharmakeia” according to Strong's Concordance is "the use of medicine, drugs, or spells." Thayer's Greek Lexicon includes "poisoning" here. Holy balls of fire, that's interesting given recent events! There are poisons deliberately being used in our water, food, medicine, clothing, beds, homes, vehicles.....

So just for kicks, let's do a little word substitution here:

“For by thy pharmakeia were ALL nations deceived."

"For by thy use of medicine, drugs, spells, or poisons were ALL nations deceived."

Are you following me here?

We know that in the end times good will be called bad and bad will be called good, according to Isaiah 5:20. What are seeing these days? We are seeing constant persecution for those who truly care about the health of themselves and others- people such as myself who are almost obsessively (*cough cough*) reading studies and finding that more than 50% of them qualify as absolute junk science. Yet these are the studies that are being upheld as proof that one should have the right to medical freedom taken away. If there is anything we know, it's that we have been lied to. We've been lied to about asbestos, mercury, DDT, tobacco, sugar, fat, cholesterol, Vioxx, fluoride, aspartame, glyphosate- the list just goes on and on!"
