This post serves as a theological and psychological critique of modern culture. The contemporary world is shaped by "persuasive spells"—including slogans, narratives, and propaganda—that act as a form of "hypnosis" to control and divide people, echoing the ancient strategy of divide et impera. We use biblical references, particularly from Paul's epistles, to warn Christians about the dangers of false teaching and deceptive narratives that lead to mass psychosis and a loss of individual identity. Ultimately, the text asserts that the only way to break these cultural "enchantments" is through a renewed focus on the Gospel, which offers truth, personal sovereignty, and the "sound mind" needed for genuine obedience and wisdom, as opposed to relying on worldly accreditation or outsourced discernment.
