The prophet's dictionary guide to the supernatural

death prevails. The condemnation is more than God’s resistance to the freewill agency of humans to choose alternative sexual outlets. It is also abominable because of the mingling of human excrement, a classic ritual practice for the gods of the dead. That is the issue. Beyond being unwholesome, the act as seen by the Lord is unclean because that is what its union with waste brings about. In addition, most Mesopotamian religions required fertility copulation in honor of the union of the god or goddess with the worshipper. Female homosexuality is not especially labeled by Creator God, as the absence of seed implantation, but rather categorizes it as a vain act of women who are simply dishonoring their bodies. They are condemned for mimicking their male counterparts and submitting to sexual perversion under the inspired auspices of a deity. Historically, homosexuality flourishes whenever antiquitous pagan spirits are revived and their worship forms reinstated. Peculiarly, they track with occultism, witchcraft, sorcery, and magic. In addition to these is astrology, where the worship of the heavenly bodies further provokes such perversion. The celestial archons of creation (see Fallen Angels), being male and spirit, explains homosexuality clearly. When one adds to these the requirement for sexual copulation and the worship of these doomed deities, the logical outgrowth of men with men seems inevitable. What is to be seen from the homosexual and sexual discussions in this book is that sex is a spiritual event and appears to be tied to the celebration and worship of one’s god. See Goddess, Sappho, and Lesbos. 649. Hood—A type of head covering and headdress, hoods in prophetic experiences speak to secrecy and concealment. They are worn by those who wish to hide from their audiences and remain reclusive while they are in public settings. Hoods as customary garments of mystics generally indicate a rejection of the light of truth, gospel truth. While hoods protect from sunlight and the elements, in religious contexts, they are worn to appeal to their followers as something mysterious and therefore unattainable by ordinary humans. Mystic and ascetic religions are likely to require hoods. They also mark achievement or initiation. See Mask. 650. Horn—An object that symbolizes force, strength, virility, and combat. A warrior’s and ruler’s insignia. It was used as an instrument to call to arms and as a battle sound (Joshua 6:5). For its application of strength, see 1 Samuel 2:1. As a sign of elevation anointment, see 1 Samuel 2:10 and 16:1. The horn was used to sound the alarm. As a symbol of royal status and authority, see Psalm 132:17–
