Zombie Apocalypse — Rise of Demonic Possession

Rudy Eugene, left, the cannibal who attacked Ronald Poppo, right, has become the face of the “Zombie Apocalypse” craze.

In just a two week span, there has been a disturbing outbreak of brutal attacks that involve actual cannibalism. While some point to Illuminati programming or the new designer drug “bath salts”, and  there is some evidence of this – these attacks also  have a sinister spiritual origin. The increasing tide of depraved, sadistic behavior can also be tied to the increased sinfulness in humanity prophesied in the Bible with the approaching of the end times and the rise in demon possession as more people open themselves up to evil spiritual influence.

Rudy Eugene – The Miami Zombie

The macabre scene unfolded about 2 p.m. Saturday on the MacArthur Causeway’s off-ramp to Biscayne Boulevard. A Road Ranger spotted the men and shouted on his loudspeaker for the naked attacker to back away. A woman also saw what was happening and flagged down an officer.
One witness said he was riding his bicycle on the MacArthur when he saw a man tearing off pieces of the victim’s flesh with his mouth. After an officer approached, Larry Vega told WSVN-FOX7, “The guy just stood, his head up like that, with pieces of flesh in his mouth. And he growled.”
The officer fired, striking the attacker, but the man kept chewing, Vega said. The officer fired again, hitting him several more times, eventually killing him. (source)

Rudy Eugene, whose attack and cannibalism sent shock waves through national media showed all the signs of someone who had gone insane. In the middle of the day, Eugene was naked, on a highway eating the flesh off of another man. However, from statements from his girlfriend and mother, he was a mild mannered man, who was attempting to get his life together. He often carried a Bible with him and watched Prosperity Gospel Apostate Preacher Creflo Dollar on TV. But what did Eugene do that could have led to this event? Drugs. He was known for smoking marijuana and new sites are alleging that he possibly used the new designer drug “bath salts” a hallucinogenic that has led to similar gruesome, animatistic behavior in other people.
Bath Salts – The Latest Drug Craze

Bath salts have become the latest drug craze.

“Bath Salts” is the slang term for drugs which combine the chemical synthetic stimulants mephedrone, Methylenedioxypyrovalerone (MDPV), and methylone, along with other chemicals. They serve as a psychoactive, hallucinogenic drug that resembles powdered sugar. It can be smoked, snorted or injected. Because of the difficulty in identifying and regulating MDPV, Bath Salts are still not illegal in all states and cab be found in smoke shops, gas stations, sex shops and newsstands. The manufacturers constantly change the name and mix of the products in order to evade law enforcement. These drugs have a slew of side effects in addition to hallucinations, including nausea, psychotic delusions and suicidal thoughts:

In each instance drugs have been suspected in playing a major role, especially bath salts, an LSD-type designer drug that causes hallucinations. Following an incident in which a naked man was shot repetitively and killed for biting off the face of a homeless man on a Miami Highway, three more disturbing cases have appeared including that of Wayne Carter, of Hackensack, NJ.Carter’s case is a bit gorier as he was reported by the Examiner to stab himself over 50 times in the abdomen while simultaneously throwing pieces of his exposed flesh and intestines at police.

According to News One, police went through two cans of pepper spray before a SWAT team was called to subdue Carter. As if flesh-throwing cannibals weren’t enough to deal with, Jarrod Wyatt of California was discovered Tuesday naked, covered in blood, and surrounded by scattered body parts. The Examiner explained that Wyatt began hallucinating from a mushroom tea, and found himself, ripping out the heart, tongue, and face of his cage-fighting partner whom appeared as a possessed demon.

Later that day, Jarrod Kinyua of Baltimore called police to report finding a human head and hands in his basement sink. According to the Baltimore Sun, Jarrod’s brother Alexander Kinyua admitted to killing his roommate when police arrived.   The 21-year-old Morgan State University student was reasoned to be high on bath salts when he killed 37-year-old Kujoe Bonsafo Agyei-Kodie. Alexander confessed to killing Agyei-Kodie with a knife and eating pieces of his brain and entire heart in the process. (source)

Cannibal killer Alexander Kinyua is also alleged to have been using bath salts.

Here is a video from 2011 of a man arrested by the police who was high on bath salts. The police took this video while the man was in the back of the squad car.  When the police found the man he was blindfolded and swinging a butcher knife. The Bay County Police Sheriff released the video to show the damaging effects of bath salts.

While all this seems to be a case of dangerous drug abuse, the Bible points to the ultimate cause behind these types of events: demon possession. In fact the Bible describes a man who was very similar to the Miami murderer Rudy Eugene.

Demon Possession In the Bible

And they came over unto the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gadarenes. And when he was come out of the ship, immediately there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit,  Who had his dwelling among the tombs; and no man could bind him, no, not with chains: 4 Because that he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been plucked asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces: neither could any man tame him.  And always, night and day, he was in the mountains, and in the tombs, crying, and cutting himself with stones.  But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshipped him, And cried with a loud voice, and said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of the most high God? I adjure thee by God, that thou torment me not.  For he said unto him, Come out of the man, thou unclean spirit. And he asked him, What is thy name? And he answered, saying, My name is Legion: for we are many. — Mark 5:1-9

Take note of the behavior of the demon-possessed man from the Gardarenes. First and foremost, the demons recognized Jesus and worshiped Him.  In their possession, they made the man they were in so wild and violent that he had to be chained and bound to keep him from hurting others. His strength was so great that he started breaking the chains that were holding him, so the people banished him to the graveyards where no one would be around him. He also seemed impervious to pain because he would cut himself, which is eerily similar to Wayne Carter, who also in the same 2-week span, who in front of police, stabbed himself, cut out his own intestines and threw them at the officers. The officers then pepper sprayed Carter, which they said “had no effect.”
In Luke’s account of this event, we are told that the man “wore no clothes.” Like Rudy Eugene, the demons in this man turned him into a naked, violent, raging, madman. The Book of Luke also details that the demons that possessed this man were not there all the time but would periodically, “catch him” and take over his mind to turn him into a monster.

The Bible shows many examples of people being possessed by “unclean spirits” or “demons”, evil spiritual beings who have the ability to inhabit the body of a human being and take them over. And they are our enemies. Scripture is clear that the true enemies of all people are from the spiritual realm:

For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. – Ephesians 6:12

Evil Angelic forces, demons, Satan and all of his minions are the enemies of humanity whose goal is to destroy us, turn us in rebellion from God and ultimately led us to hell. And operating out of sight from humanity, with thousands of years of experiencing living on Earth, they have a decided advantage over the average person who may not be a believer in Jesus Christ, has no knowledge of the dangers of the spiritual world and can thus be attacked by them. These beings are have powers that are supernatural, but they are not all-powerful. They still act under God’s authority and often times it takes the actions of the individual to do something that gives the demon permission and license to attack them. In the occult, this is called “opening a portal” – performing an act or ritual that will change the consciousness and invite demonic spiritual activity.

Contacting the Spirit World Through Drug Use

Since ancient times, drugs have been used for spiritual interaction.

Most, but not all [shamans], contact their mystical beings while in an altered state of consciousness brought on by smoking, taking drugs, rhythmic drumming, chanting, or monotonous dancing. While in the trance, the shaman becomes a medium or spokesperson for one or more mystical beings, a feature of shamanism in non-Western societies which finds parallels in the activities of professional channelers in the United States and western Europe who also speak on behalf of mystical beings for their paid clients. (source)

From ancient times, hallucinogenic herbs, plants and drugs have been used as mean to contact the spirit world. Shamans, medicine men, “healers” and diviners (fortune tellers) were some of the most prominent people in their communities for their supernatural powers and abilities to interact with the spirit world. And all through the use of drugs. Aleister Crowley, one of the most infamous and influential Satanists of the 20th century, was in regular communication with the spirit world and advocated using drugs as a way to maximize spiritual contact and ritual. Even today, many rock and roll or hip hop artists will make songs that celebrate the mild-altering “creativity” they feel from smoking marijuana. However, this is a satanic deception. While people may think they are contacting dead relatives or friends, dead celebrities or helping a lost soul “find their way home” they are actually contacting demons.

Many celebrities, like Wiz Khalifa, work to portray drug use as cool and fashionable.

This is why the Bible strictly prohibits any type of occult spiritual activity:

When thou art come into the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee, thou shalt not learn to do after the abominations of those nations. There shall not be found among you any one that maketh his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, or that useth divination, or an observer of times, or an enchanter, or a witch.  Or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a necromancer.  For all that do these things are an abomination unto the LORD: and because of these abominations the LORD thy God doth drive them out from before thee. – Deuteronomy 18:9-12

All these practices contact Satanic forces. The dead cannot communicate with the living. However, a “familiar spirit” who follows around a person while they are alive, can impersonate that person once dead if a family member or friend attempts to contact them via séance, ritual or other forms of witchcraft. This is an incredibly dangerous practice. And the use of drugs, even when one is not trying to contact a spirit, provides a state of “altered consciousness” which opens a door to allow demonic attack. This was well-known in ancient times. psychedelic mushrooms, which can give a drug-like high and alter one’s consciousness were called “food of the gods.” Pharmakeia, the term for sorcery in Greek, is where the English word ‘pharmacy’ originates from. In ancient times, the connection between drugs and the spirit world was well-known. And demonic activity can get people to do all sorts of depraved acts. Most recently a New York woman high on bath salts died of cardiac arrest after police discovered her beating and choking her 3-year old child and tasered her.

Demons are disembodied spirits who desperately seek to inhabit a creature. Look at how Jesus describes their ability to possess.

When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest, and findeth none.  Then he saith, I will return into my house from whence I came out; and when he is come, he findeth it empty, swept, and garnished.  Then goeth he, and taketh with himself seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter in and dwell there: and the last state of that man is worse than the first. Even so shall it be also unto this wicked generation. – Matthew 12:43-45

Notice that demons see human beings as homes and dwellings. And that even when they leave a person they can return with more power, evil demons and re-enter. Drug use, sexual perversion, dabbling in magic and the occult, drunkenness and incantations (i.e., chanting, singing songs that have dark, occult meanings, over and over again), can all invite possession. And it does not have to manifest in violence like the case of Rudy Eugene. Some demons can take over a person in a much more subtle way. An example is found in 1 Kings 22, when the prophet Michaiah details the vision and prophecy he received from God regarding the wicked King Ahab:

And he said, Hear thou therefore the word of the LORD: I saw the LORD sitting on his throne, and all the host of heaven standing by him on his right hand and on his left. 20 And the LORD said, Who shall persuade Ahab, that he may go up and fall at Ramothgilead? And one said on this manner, and another said on that manner. 21 And there came forth a spirit, and stood before the LORD, and said, I will persuade him. 22 And the LORD said unto him, Wherewith? And he said, I will go forth, and I will be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets. And he said, Thou shalt persuade him, and prevail also: go forth, and do so. —1 Kings 22:19-22

King Ahab ruled over Israel in age of high evil. He worshiped pagan gods, rejected God’s instruction and his wife, Jezebel, killed God’s prophets and installed her own pagan, Satanic priesthood. In the passage above, The Lord was prepared to punish Ahab for his rampant sin and spoke at an assembly of all of the angels and spirits or the “host of heaven.” There He sought a spirit being to “persuade” Ahab to fight a battle at Ramothgilead where he would die. Notice God did not specify how the persuasion would be done. A spirit being volunteers and explains that it would be a “lying spirit” in the mouths of Ahab’s pagan prophets, making them tell the King he would be victorious in battle when in actuality he would be defeated. God then gives the spirit permission to do this and be successful.
This passage provides an amazing insight into the workings of the spiritual world. As sinful rebellion against God increases in a nation or an individual person’s life, it opens the door for demonic spirits to enter and wreak havoc. The demon that possessed King Ahab’s 400 prophets did not make them act violent or insane. It just made them tell a lie about one specific issue. So a person can have a demon doing just one thing in their lives and have no inclination they are under its influence.

Cannibalism in the Bible

Luke Magnota, the Canadian Cannibal Killer.

 And thou shalt eat the fruit of thine own body, the flesh of thy sons and of thy daughters, which the Lord thy God hath given thee, in the siege, and in the straitness, wherewith thine enemies shall distress thee:  So that the man that is tender among you, and very delicate, his eye shall be evil toward his brother, and toward the wife of his bosom, and toward the remnant of his children which he shall leave: So that he will not give to any of them of the flesh of his children whom he shall eat: because he hath nothing left him in the siege, and in the straitness, wherewith thine enemies shall distress thee in all thy gates. — Deuteronomy 28:53-55

If the Bible verse above sounds disturbing to you, it should. God was pronouncing a prophecy to the ancient Israelites nation that would be the result if they continued in their rampant sin and their idolatry – the worship of fallen angels and demons. They would become so disconnected from God, so far gone into sin, that they would even resort to being cannibals. This is no different today. Romans 2 states: “For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves: Which shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another;” What this means is that whether someone has read the Bible or not – heard of Jesus Christ or not, everyone knows God exists in their heart because God has given all people a conscience. The word conscience literally means “with knowledge” deriving its meaning in that when a person does something wrong, she knows it is evil naturally. However, when someone continues in sin, that conscience becomes “seared” and the person no longer cares about God knowing what they are doing and even revels in evil behavior. Such was the case with Luke Magnotta, another cannibal in the Zombie Apocalypse.

We showed cops sick film of a live KITTEN fed to a snake and an email warning: “Once you kill and taste blood it’s impossible to stop.” Luka Magnotta, 29, fled after his male partner – a missing Chinese student – was chopped up and eaten in Canada. Last night the twisted gay porn star was being hunted across the world after a severed hand and a foot were mailed to the offices of two political parties in Canada. Last night the baby-faced weirdo was placed on the FBI and Interpol “Most Wanted” lists — as police discovered a grisly video thought to be live footage of the murder. The ten-minute film shows the victim being stabbed in a frenzy with an ICE-PICK, before being dismembered, sexually abused and his flesh EATEN with a knife and fork. We investigated bisexual Magnotta, 29, when he was in Britain last December after the vile kitten video was posted on the internet. (source).

Magnotta, a homosexual porn star, was arrested during the “Cannibal Spree” for the gruesome crime above. The Bible also deals with the sin of cannibalism, which was prevalent among pagan religions. When Noah and his family emerged from the ark, notice the first thing The Lord says to them:

Every moving thing that liveth shall be meat for you; even as the green herb have I given you all things. But flesh with the life thereof, which is the blood thereof, shall ye not eat. And surely your blood of your lives will I require; at the hand of every beast will I require it, and at the hand of man; at the hand of every man’s brother will I require the life of man. Whoso sheddeth man’s blood, by man shall his blood be shed: for in the image of God made he man. (Genesis 9:3-5)

God allowed animals to be eaten for food but commands them not to eat the flesh of humans. People were made in the image of God and are above animals. God also stated that in His divine creation of humanity, he put “life in the blood.” Our blood carries life-giving power to our bodies and is very special in the eyes of God. Thus consuming blood or cannibalism was strongly prohibited. but why would this be the first thing God warns Noah and his sons about after destroying the rest of the world in the flood? Is it possible that cannibalism was happening before the flood? The Bible provides some indications that may have been the case.

Nephilim Giants — Were they cannibals?

The flood of Noah’s day was brought on because of fallen angels who had intimate relations with human women, leading to fallen angelic-human hybrids known as the Nephilim giants. These evil, super-human beings than took over the world in sinful rampage, dominating humanity and bringing so much sin the Bible states: “And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart. And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them.” (Genesis 6:5-7). After the flood, giants re-emerged and were once again, enemies of God and His people. When the Israelites were set to enter the Promised Land after the exodus out of Egypt, they sent 12 spies to scout the land. 10 of the spies came back frightened of what they saw and offered this report:

And Moses sent them to spy out the land of Canaan, and said unto them, Get you up this way southward, and go up into the mountain:  And see the land, what it is, and the people that dwelleth therein, whether they be strong or weak, few or many; And what the land is that they dwell in, whether it be good or bad; and what cities they be that they dwell in, whether in tents, or in strong holds… But the men that went up with him said, We be not able to go up against the people; for they are stronger than we.  And they brought up an evil report of the land which they had searched unto the children of Israel, saying, The land, through which we have gone to search it, is a land that eateth up the inhabitants thereof; and all the people that we saw in it are men of a great stature.  And there we saw the giants, the sons of Anak, which come of the giants: and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight. (Numbers 13 17-19; 31-33).

The Promised Land was full of satanic giants who were trying to thwart God’s plan of bringing the Israelites to inhabit it. And notice the spies says the land “eateth up the inhabitants thereof.” In Psalm 14, which is referencing the usurpers in the land of Canaan the Bible describes again the downward spiral of sinful rebellion that can lead to this behavior:

The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good. The LORD looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, and seek God. They are all gone aside, they are all together become filthy: there is none that doeth good, no, not one. Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge? who eat up my people as they eat bread, and call not upon the LORD.

Once again we see that sin against God is process. The more someone sins with no repentance or acknowledgement of God, the less their conscience can protect them. Soon that person will deny the existence of God outright and do any sort of vile, evil act. And the people in Canaan, steeped in the occult and worship of demons (as still done in some pagan religions today),  were eating people in the same manner they are bread. Rejection of God can lead people down dark roads and inviting demonic influence will only make it that much quicker. Fornication, which is any sexual relation outside of marriage (heterosexual, homosexual otherwise) is described as a unique sin:

Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them the members of an harlot? God forbid. What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh. But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit. Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body. — 1 Corinthians 6:15-18

Fornication is against one’s own body and invited evil spiritual influence. Satanist Aleister Crowley touted homosexual ritual as a key to maximizing satanic magical power. And to no surprise, society at large and the mass media seek to break down every sexual boundary possible, bombarding the public with sexual images, encouraging “sexual liberation” and a rejection of any biblical values or principles of intimacy. Do not be deceived.
Predictive Programming in Pop Culture

The film American Psycho was a major inspiration for Luke Magnotta.

To no surprise, movies and videos have provided a great deal of imagery and stories that have predicted this behavior and potentially inspired it. American Psycho, a movie starring Christian Bale, appears to have influenced Luke Magnotta:

The music playing in the background of the horrific Montreal murder video — easily viewable online as recently as this week — is from the 2000 serial killer movie American Psycho.  In the film, a wealthy New York banker, played by Hollywood A-lister Christian Bale, hides his alternate psychopathic ego from co-workers and friends as he acts out gratuitous fantasies.  They climax in a notorious scene in which Bale’s character uses an axe in the frenzied slaughter of a colleague, set to the Huey Lewis and the News song It’s Hip to be Square.
In the video, Magnotta appears to be filming himself on the night of May 24-25 killing Lin with an [ice pick], to a soundtrack of New Order’s True Faith, which plays over the opening credits of American Psycho.  One of the videos of Magnotta which has surfaced since the slaying became public is entitled Luka Magnotta Official Theme Song, and is set the tune of True Faith. (source)

One of the many shots in the film American Psycho which celebrate murder and blood.

The novel American Psycho, which the movie was based on, was also at the center of the trial of Canadian serial killer Paul Bernardo, who was known as the “Scarborough Rapist” and the “Schoolgirl Killer.” Bernardo was alleged to have read American Psycho “as his Bible,” (Interestingly, Magnotta, then known as Eric Newman, was born in Scarborough, Ontario).

When Magnotta was on the run from authorities in Europe he used the false name “Trammel.” In the movie Basic Instinct, a highly erotic thriller, the lead character is a serial killer named Catherine Trammel, who kills her victims by stabbing them with an ice pick. For a person in sinful rebellion against God, dabbling in activities that invite demonic influence and control, these films can serve as a trigger in the subconscious for violent acts, so says Loren Cambpell, author of The Copycat Effect: How the Media and Pop Culture Trigger Mayhem in Tomorrow’s Headlines.

The film ‘I Am Legend’ featured a full scale Zombie Apocalypse.

Other movies have similarly featured people turning into cannibalistic zombies. I Am Legend, starred Will Smith, who played a military virologist who works to cure a virus that has killed 90% of humanity and left the survivors as zombie-like, cannibals.

The movie that made the cannibal killer a hero.

The Silence of the Lambs  was perhaps the first motion picture to turn a cannibal serial killer into a hero, as it introduced the character Hannibal Lechter, an incarcerated murderer who ate his victims. Lechter was portrayed as a highly intellectual, refined gentleman, who just happened to be a gruesome serial killer. The film, one of the highest grossing of all-time, won five Oscar awards in every major category. What violent movies can do is put a thought of evil into one’s head and then the sinful nature can take over.

Judas, the evil disciple who betrayed Judas, was ultimately possessed by Satan himself. However, before that possession, Satan merely sent the thought to Judas: “And supper being ended, the devil having now put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, to betray him;” (John 13:2.)

Satan will use any means possible to broadcast sinful thoughts into the minds of humanity. And if a person is already engaging in sinful behavior, especially drugs, which alter the consciousness and let someone “lose control” it opens the door for the Devil to take control. Even marijuana, which many believe to not be a “real drug” at all or even beneficial, opens the same doorways.

Are You A Zombie?

Lord willing, it is now more clear how dangerous opening oneself to demonic influence can be. There are no limits to the depravity of human behavior when someone is disconnected from any Godly influence. While the idea of a Zombie Apocalypse seems farfetched, a better question is examining your own spiritual state. The Bible says:

And you, being dead in your sins..hath he quickened [given life] together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses; 14 Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross; (Colossians 2:13-14)

Because of our sin, we are spiritually “the walking dead.” We have no relationship with God because we are guilty before Him. Thus our fate is sealed when we are judged – we will be guilty before God for our lifetime of choosing to sin and suffer eternity in Hell. But this is why, God in His love, sent Jesus Christ to die on the cross. Jesus took the punishment for all people so that those who believe in Him, could have eternal life and be declared innocent before God because our debt for our sin was paid by the blood of Christ. There is life in the blood. And in the blood that Jesus shed when He was beaten, tortured and killed, was a payment to provide atonement so that we can have eternal life in Him. Jesus said: “And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life..” (John 6:40). The first step to escaping death and gaining Godly influence is confessing sins to God.

“If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” (1 John 1:9). Jesus Christ has power over all demons, fallen angels and Satan. They will all bow to Jesus Christ at His Second Coming. And when a person puts their faith in Jesus, He indwells them and protects a Christian’s spirit forever. The world wants to downplay the importance of salvation and eternal life even though they are at the same time promoting every evil spiritual thing possible. Do not be deceived. If you are a Christian, remove the sinful influences in your life. And if you are not, pray to God for forgiveness of sins, believe in Jesus Christ and receive eternal life.
