Eric Hoffer and Self-Worship: The End Times Dragon Cult

“And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.”
–Genesis 3:4-5

Of all the lies told by the serpent in the garden of Eden, “ye shall be as gods” was surely one of the most seductive.

After all, who doesn’t want to be a god?

And that same lie is still whispered and repeated today. Being your own god is the beginning of self-worship and self-worship is the beginning of dragon (Satan) worship.

And THAT is where the serpent (Satan) was headed in the first place so very, very long ago.

ALL religions–even those who offer one’s SELF as the god–require forerunners.

ERIC HOFFER

​Eric Hoffer was sort of a satanic philosopher–which he would have to be in order to be exalted as he was by the world for his relatively meager accomplishments.

“If ye were of the world, the world would love his own:”
–John 15:19

Hoffer’s magnum opus was True Believer.

The True Believer: Thoughts on the Nature of Mass Movements (1951)

A core principle in the book is Hoffer’s assertion that mass movements are interchangeable: in the Germany of the 1920s and the 1930s, the Communists and Nazis were ostensibly enemies but routinely swapped members as they competed for the same kind of marginalized, angry people, and fanatical Communists became Nazis and vice versa.

Hoffer emphasized “SELF” (particularly self-esteem) and by doing so heralded not only the Age of Satan (which was announced April 1966 in which SELF is the proclaimed highest sort of god), but also the self-obsessed times in which we live.

It’s little wonder the “selfie” is the pinnacle of modern art in our self-compulsive civilization.

Hoffer was a forerunner for the SELF Society of our present time.

Hoffer argued that fanatical and extremist cultural movements, whether religious or political, arose under predictable circumstances: when large numbers of people come to believe that their individual lives are worthless and ruined, that the modern world is irreparably corrupt, and that hope lies only in joining a larger group that demands radical changes. Hoffer believed that self-esteem and a sense of satisfaction with one’s life was of central importance to psychological well-being.

As such, Hoffer was the forerunner for all of the self-obsessed church-goers who fill the seats in the satanic church system of the end times.

“And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast…And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations. And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.”
–Revelation 13:4,7-8

With his celebration of SELF, Eric Hoffer filled a valuable role as satanic forerunner for end times worldwide dragon worship. Dragon worship is centered primarily in the network of pagan temples known as churches. From these demonic centers–where worship of other spirits, witchcraft and SELF already flourishes–end times dragon worship has already spread across the entire world.

In the modern world in which we live, self is exalted because the time of the dragon is nearly at hand. Self-worship is but a stepping stone to the worship of the dragon–which is but a stepping stone to eternal damnation.

“And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works. And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.”
–Revelation 20:12,15

IF one is worshiping self, one is deceived.

IF one is worshiping the dragon, one is also deceived. The only difference is the level of self-deception.

There is yet a small window open through which to escape.

But time is grower shorter by the day.

“But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name.”
—John 20:31

THE GOSPEL

“Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep. After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles. And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time.”
–1 Corinthians 15:1-8

“For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.”
-–Romans 1:16

“Seest thou a man wise in his own conceit? there is more hope of a fool than of him.”
–Proverbs 26:12
