*SUPERSTITION

**Our mission is to preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ absolutely free. We do not want donation. We only want you to know the truth.
Palestinians say they don't know what they have done wrong:
1. Palestinians are wrong to occupy the Jewish land. 2. Palestinians are wrong to have the terrorists Hamas rule over them. 3. Palestinians are wrong not to go to Arab lands to build a Palestinian state. 4. Palestinians are wrong to live on charity, believe and practice a false ...
An authoritative definition of a state or nation is that it must have a territory, a population, and sovereignty. For example, Taiwan is a province of China where China has sovereignty; for that reason Taiwan could never become a state or nation. Palestine can never become a state or nation because it has no territory and no sovereignty. However, if Palestinians establish itself in a land of Arabs with its own territory and sovereignty, then Palestine can be a state or nation. UN is so useless it must be reformed.
This is the truth. Gaza, West Bank, Golan Heights, Holy Mount, etc. all belong to the Jewish land. Palestinians do not own one inch of the Promised Land. Palestinians are Arabs who have no part or portion, who do not have resettlement right in the Jewish land. No Arab-Islamic nations welcome more than one million Palestinians. They would rather beg for charity than work.
Many do not know that Iran and Syria support terrorists Hamas, Hezbollah and Houthis and provide rockets, missiles, and weapons to the terrorists.I
All the troubles and problems of Palestinians are self-inflicted. They have garbage because they created garbage. Pompous and provocative Palestinians say they do not know what to do. Yes, they could and should go to the lands of Arabs. Palestinians are Arabs and they could and should go to lands of Arabs. Palestinians have no resettlement right in the Jewish land, no part or portion. There is no future to be part of terrorists Hamas, Hezbollah and Houthis. The only way of peace is for Palestinians to go to the lands of Arabs, there to establish a Palestinian state and build lives for themselves. Something is new and strange in 2024. The UN, WHO, EU and Arab-Islamic nations recognize and support terrorists HAMAS, HEZBOLLAH, and HOUTHIS. Palestinians, UN, EU, WHO, all Arab-Muslim nations do not want to talk about who support terrorists with rockets, missiles and weapons for Hamas, Hezbollah and Houthis.a

The true madness is the Ukraine war supported by US, EU, and NATO, it should be ended at once unconditionally. Ukraine should immediately surrender and renounce the former goal of joining NATO.
Hamas and Palestinians do not have homeland in Israel. The sooner they realize it the better. Who is stopping Palestinians to establish a Palestinian state in an Arab land? Arabs go to Arab’s land is most reasonable. Palestinians and Arabs are unworthy. Hamas, Hezbollah and Houthis are wicked terrorists deserved to be destroyed for good.
The whole world believes in a lie.
Two-state solution will work if Palestinians establish a Palestinian state in an Arab land. It will not work if they establish a Palestinian state in the Jewish land. Isn’t is STRANGE that UN, EU, all Arab and Muslim states support the terrorists Hamas to rule in a Palestinian state? The world believes in a lie. Arab-Muslim nations rally in support of Palestinians. Strangest indeed, none welcomes to take in Palestinians. The British Empire (United Kingdom) must come out to tell the truth: Palestinians and Hamas were Arabs who illegally occupied the Jewish land. Israel needs a big map that describes what God gave the Promised Land to Abraham and his descendants some 4,000 years ago. It is a new thing under the sun that UN, WHO, and terrorists are in bed and they speak in a new tongue of humanitarian?! Terrorists become humanitarians?!
No one asks the real question? Where do Hamas and Hezbollah terrorists get their rockets, missiles, and weapons from? Since when terrorists stop killing the people? To give humanitarian aid to Palestinians is to support the terrorists. Palestinians (Arabs) must evacuate from Gaza, West Bank, etc. from Israel. Arab nations must accept Palestinians (Arabs) from the Jewish land. Palestinians (Arabs) must establish a Palestinian state in an Arab land. Israel must destroy Hamas and Hezbollah terrorists once and for all. Then conflict and crisis are ended.
Palestinians (Arabs) are displaced in Israel. Palestinians are free to go. Those who did not evacuate died in vain. Arab nations are hypocrites, not one welcomes to take in Palestinians (Arabs). Arab nations are actually causing humanitarian crisis. To demand Gaza Ceasefire is to help Hams terrorists. GAZA CRISIS was created by terrorists Hamas. Lebanon shall be destroyed for harboring terrorists Hezbollah. UN and WTO protect terrorists in the name of schools and hospitals, those died in vain. Only Egypt accepts a few Palestinians, no Arab nation is willing to taken in Gaza Palestinians (Arabs). It is high time for the British government to tell the truth to Palestinians (Arabs, Hamas) that they have no right to stay in the Jewish land. Palestinians are free to go to the Arab lands, the sooner the better.
I was willing to waste my time and effort to make a comprehensive plan to change and save America because I am an American citizen. I am not willing to waste my time and effort on United Nations because it is nothing to me. I wrote some good suggestion for China because China is the land of my ancestors. I have a few point to warn the world. 1). UN chief and some high-paid officials are good for nothing, they must be replaced. 2). UN, WHO and ICC are protecting the terrorists. 3). UN must move out of New York. 4). UN needs a new charter and requires all member states to have a NEW CONSTITUTION. The New Constitution must stipulate the majority of citizens (51%) can change government, remove any elected or appointed official instantly, and power to change government and decide any issue through the National Referendum.
What AFRICA needs most is SELF-SUFFICIENCY in everything; not useless general elections, not modernization, not deluded democracy, not new corruption replacing old corruption, not fat people who sing and dance and drink beer and produce children they cannot support, not foreign aid of any kind to deal with natural disasters and man-made disasters. African nations and citizens need a NEW CONSTITUTION with majority (51%) through National Referendum to instantly remove unwanted leaders or politicians, to execute the junta of any military coups d'etat for any reason, and to change government or direction. Nations and peoples who habitually are corrupt, unmotivated, unproductive, with abilities to eat and drink beer, to sing and dance, to have sex and produce children they cannot support; unable to solve their own problems and perennial in shortages of money and basic necessities; -- who have no reason to exist should not receive any humanitarian aid.
China is right and smart to diversify its portfolio by adding more gold reserves. Even EURO is not good. However, the gold must be stored at home safer than Fort Knox.
According to https://research.stlouisfed.org/publications/page1-econ/2.019/11/01/making-sense-of-the-national-debt “Governments (and their economies) do not retire, and governments do not die (or don't intend to).”
I hold if America continues financing high deficits and debts, and foreign wars BY printing money, America is committing suicide intending or not. The day of reckoning is near.
QUAD (USA,Japan,Australia,India) and AUKUS (Australia, U.K. and U.S.) cohabit and conspire to target China. China does not have quarrel with India. China-India border conflict was a result of the British empire made the Indian map bigger by misappropriated and illegally incorporated large Chinese territories into the Indian map. The fraudulent British officials deliberately fail to tell the truth to the Indian government. Since QUAD & AUKUS are incompatible with BRICKS. India for ulterior motive has violated BRICKS, it should withdraw or be expelled. Indonesia is fit to replace India in BRICKS perfect.
There are many poor and backward nations in the world like leeches who suck the blood of China. I cannot list those nations who have no reason to exist, lest I will be the target. If this bloodsucking activity is not stopped, China will be sucked dry and poor again. China must not set a bad precedent in giving loan to any nation. A nation does not have enough money should not start a project. A nation can go to IMF, World Bank, and Asia Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) for a loan, or a nation can sell its assets to pay for projects.
Useless and violent Sudan holds the world as hostage and acts with contempt because world leaders are stupid. What to do with Sudan? NOTHING. ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!!! Sudanese glorify and pride themselves in killing its own Black people. Let them do it! Never negotiate; never give aid; never interfere! Let Sudan alone and in a year or so Sudan will vanish from the world! The world should make Sudan a pariah nation, a bad example.
American rising debt is not only a measure of Washington’s profligacy which has nothing to do with income distortion, it is completely due to the evil national policy of American imperialism and world domination -- I always hold this leads to American suicide. There is no confused thinking. China should never follow America in rising debt and deficits.
War in Ukraine: Lives and livelihoods, lost and disrupted. No one to blame except the stupid Ukrainians themselves and its nincompoop leader who is obedient running dog of the West and wants to prolong the proxy war indefinitely with billions of dollars, cluster bombs and F-16. In spite of corruption, US, EU and NATO support Ukraine.
It is vital for China to provide free prenatal care, free delivery of baby (including hospitalization), free one-year nursing supply of baby formula and baby diaper to increase birth rate.
1,500 is deductible from income tax per family per child. The mother has the right to be off from work for 3 months with pay and job guaranteed when return to work. China needs to cut foreign aid in order to aid China’s poor first.
Since Ukraine has admitted the terrorist acts of blasting substantial damages to Crimean Bridge, ICC must issue a warrant to arrest the nincompoop of Ukraine and execute him to stop the war. The UN must identify the terrorists who blew up Nord Stream pipelines and execute them without further delay.
The UN must condemn any nation that uses cluster ammunitions or bombs in Ukraine or anywhere.
BRICKS was established to weaken American hegemony and circumvent the Western domination. India would be in conflict of interest to be used by America in QUAD.
BRICKS would be a mistake in developing a new global currency. The strong and reliable Chinese yuan (
) can compete or even displace the US dollar. Each member state should strengthen its finance and economy.
More than 100 nations should be welcome to join BRICKS at once.
Under US protection, the war crime nation Japan has never fulfilled its agreement as an unconditional surrendered nation. Japan has never paid one penny for killing 35 million Chinese, making millions of slave workers, and hundred thousands of sex slaves which Japanese military conveniently called “comfort women.” The US has re-militarized Japan as its running dog in Asia; now it boldly violates international law by deliberately dumping nuclear contaminated waste water into the Pacific to harm the whole world, in spite of being opposed strongly by overwhelming majority of Japanese citizens, opposed by its neighbors and island nations. Among other measures, the international community must rise up to ban and boycott the imported food and goods from Japan.
Ukraine is an evil the world must get rid of promptly: The Ukrainian nincompoop must be executed at once as a war criminal; knowingly or unknowingly, Putin has fallen into the Western trap. Led by US, EU, NATO, etc. blindly promote and prolong the most meaningless war.
Russia needs to declare a clear policy: Whenever and wherever Russia is being attacked by NATO, with absolute certainty Russia will respond with nuclear weapons.
Ukraine will collapse in one day if US, Canada, EU, G-7, NATO, UK, etc. stop giving financial and military aid, and the Ukrainian war criminal is executed at once. The war will end and there will be peace.
Most Americans do not understand the consequences of US Debt Limit. American leaders and politicians of both parties have mismanaged the country with negligence and neglect. Even with the highest debt, they sent billions and billions of borrowed money and weapons to corrupt Ukraine to prolong the war. By spending spree they commit America to suicide. Reform will not save America, America needs Revolution as suggested by founding fathers. America needs to ditch phony democracy by a New Constitution that stipulates national sovereignty lies in the hands of American citizens. With a majority (51%) of American citizens through a National Referendum, Americans have power to remove instantly any elected or appointed official without impeachment to change the government.
Jesus Christ is coming again!
The world must finally wake up to the dark evil forces and face an aggressive, belligerent, irrational, hegemonic and bad-faith superpower who seeks its monopoly on global power and is the greatest source of instability, chaos, inflation, injustice, trouble and conflict in the world -- which is seeking to contain Russia and China, and strategically crush them at all costs. The West has wronged China since the infamous Opium Wars to the present. Not only there will be no peace, these hostile activities and militant mind-set will inevitably leads to a coming nuclear war to destroy the whole world.
According to https://unherd.com/thepost/who-really-blew-up-the-nord-stream-2-pipeline/
- JEFFREY SACHS
America’s history of interference abroad is well-documented, but did other countries not have a motive too? Other likely suspects could feasibly include Ukraine, but also Russia itself — chaotic, irrational behaviour is not an uncommon characteristic of Putin’s Russia. Besides, was it not a slight stretch of the imagination to claim that the US would order the destruction of a piece of public infrastructure that partly belongs to a NATO ally?
Sachs dismissed these questions as as “absurd” and declared that those who didn’t believe America would act against allies in pursuit of its own interests “don’t really know the US.” He believes that decades of antagonistic relations with Russia culminated in the Nord Stream attack, which American foreign policymakers have long viewed as a threat.
According to Sachs, the America neoconservative view of Russia and the war has now become mainstream. Where Europe’s acquisition of cheap Russian gas was once viewed as ‘trade’, it is now seen as a dependency. That said, the small detail of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine may have played a part in that.”
The only way to have WORLD PEACE is to abolish NATO, G-7 and EU; abandon American imperialism, capitalism, hegemony,warmongering and sanctions; and leave corrupt Ukraine desolate and unsupported economically, financially and militarily. The Ukraine war criminal eyes victory is an illusion and delusion; the reality is Ukraine destroyed and desolate.
The Philippines has taken the WRONG side of America, China must act accordingly. AID to such a useless nation would be a big WASTE!!!

The fake claim and biggest black lie is black Jews. Abraham was not a Negro, the twelve tribes of Israel were not Negroes. David was not a Negro. Jesus was born a Jew, not a Negro. There are no black Jews. Merriam Webster defines Negro as a person of Black African ancestry. The Biblical Jews are neither black nor African.
The two-state proposal is not the two-state solution. For God gave the Promised Land to Abraham and his descendants some 4,000 years ago. The Chosen People rebelled against God and they were scattered all over the world. During the British colonial rule, the Holy Land was known as Palestine, illegal Arabs moved in to occupy the Holy Land without payment. The illegal Arabs were latter known as Palestinians. Palestinians, Arabs and Hamas have no claim to the Holy Land and no resettlement right in the Holy Land. They do not own one inch of the Jewish land, they now illegally occupied the Promised Land; Palestinians, Arabs and Hamas must at once leave the Jewish land for good. The leaders of the United Kingdom could tell them so. Palestinians could never establish a Palestinian state in the Holy Land. The United Nations or any agency has no authority to give the Jewish land to Palestinians, Arabs and Hamas. Jerusalem is forever the capital of the great King David. It is high time for Palestinians, Arabs and Hamas to get out of the Holy Land in peace; or they will be evicted by force. God will fight for Jerusalem, for God is the Protector of Israel. Palestine only existed in British colonial rule, so Palestinians are not free in Israel; they must be expelled from Jerusalem and the Jewish land, from the Jordan River to the Mediterranean Sea. They are free to go to Arab nations. Palestinians and Hamas must withdraw from the Jewish land that God gave to Abraham and his descendants without delay. Any strategy to bargain away the Jewish land is wrong.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This article is written to let you know what superstition is and Christians must reject all of them.
Act 25:19, “But had certain questions against him of their own superstition, and of one Jesus, which was dead, whom Paul affirmed to be alive.”
Superstition in Greek is deisidaimonia which means in a bad sense fear of the gods; false and irrational belief; -- which occurs 1 time in the New Testament.
The word “superstition” does not exist in the Old Testament.
In ancient time there was a hunter going out hunting, he was not careful and falling into a ditch, but at the time he saw a rabbit hopping. So the ancient hunter concluded that it was bad luck to see rabbit hopping. Out of ignorance the hunter connected the event of his falling into a ditch with a rabbit hopping.
For many cultures and peoples, superstition is a way of life.
I. WHAT IS SUPERSTITION
My definition of superstition: a false and irrational belief.
According to https://www.merriam-webster.com
Merriam Webster defines superstition: a belief or practice resulting from ignorance, fear of the unknown, trust in magic or chance, or a false conception of causation.
According to https://www.oxfordlearnersdictionaries.com/definition/english/superstition?q=superstition
* the belief that particular events happen in a way that cannot be explained by reason or science; the belief that particular events bring good or bad luck.
According to https://www.collinsdictionary.com/us/
Superstition is belief in things that are not real or possible, for example magic.
The Holy Scriptures do not condone any superstition; all superstitions listed or mentioned below should be rejected.
II. TYPES OF SUPERSTITION
Three major types of superstition, religious, cultural and personal, cover most of the superstitions.
A. RELIGIOUS
Religious superstitions usually come from animism, idol worship, myths, or witchcraft.
Some religions and cultures believe after death, a man or woman becomes a demon.
Some religion believes after death the human soul can rebirth or reincarnate into animals or plants.
Friday the thirteen brings bad luck for some.
B. CULTURAL
It is bad luck for a bride to see the bridegroom before wedding.
Wearing black in a wedding brings bad luck.
Play loud music in funeral to keep the spirits away.
Itchy palm brings good luck.
A wood cut board with the name of the deceased can become his/her spiritual seat.
The most unworthy object is the practice of superstitions as a way of carrying on traditions and preserving culture.
Most cultures are afraid and avoid bad lucks. Some activity and some event are considered bad lucks. Some activity or event are considered good lucks. Superstitious people go for good lucks and avoid bad lucks.
Someone said, “A common American superstition is knocking on wood for good luck, but there’s nothing to lose by just doing it.”
I say you are already losing by just knocking on wood for good luck, because the doing brings nothing.
Some people believe that the number 13 is unlucky; so some buildings do not have thirteen floor, and some hotels do not have room 13.
Black cats are ugly, but they cannot bring bad luck.
There is a superstition that believes picking up a penny off the street brings good luck. I say the good luck you get worth a penny.
Some religions believe in sacred animals, so they have snake-gods, sacred-cow, monkey, fish, black bear, tortoise, vulture,
crow as symbols of their gods.
The emperors of some culture proudly claimed to be the sons of the dragon not knowing the dragon is anothe name for the devil.
Some religion and culture believe in rebirth or reincarnation. It means the soul being trapped in a cycle of death and rebirth until it achieves purification. To avoid confusion, no one should equate “born again” of Christianity with the “rebirth” of certain religion. And no one should confuse the INCARNATION of Christianity with the reincarnation of certain religion. I never have interest of making analysis of comparative religion. Let it be clear, I consider all teachings of all other religions as falsehoods and heresies. It is only an attempt to mention the superstitions of some cultures and religions. I do not care what others believe, I only present the truth in Jesus Christ. Certain religion teaches that a human soul can be reborn as an animal or even a plant.
Fortune telling is a superstition accepted by many.
I used to give an insulting response when a person wants to have fortune telling about me. I would say, my face shines with glory, and yours are not. According to superstition, breaking a mirror brings bad luck. No, it does not bring you bad luck, it only costs you the price of the mirror.
According to superstition, picking up a penny off the street brings good luck. The good luck you get is one penny.
C. PERSONAL
According to https://www.britannica.com/topic/evil-eye
“Evil eye, glance believed to have the ability to cause injury or death to those on whom it falls; pregnant women, children, and animals are thought to be particularly susceptible. Belief in the evil eye is ancient and ubiquitous; it occurred in ancient Greece and Rome, in Jewish, Islamic, Buddhist, and Hindu traditions, and in indigenous, peasant, and other folk societies, and it has persisted throughout the world into modern times. Those most often accused of casting the evil eye include strangers, malformed individuals, childless women, and old women.”
I don’t believe in the “evil eye” as explained above. However, I believe in the Holy Scriptures that say about an “evil eye” below.
People who have evil eyes usually harbor bad intention. Life experience has taught me a lot about the evil eyes of people.
Pro 23:6, “Eat thou not the bread of him that hath an evil eye, neither desire thou his dainty meats:”
Pro 28:22, “He that hasteth to be rich hath an evil eye, and considereth not that poverty shall come upon him.
Mar 7:21-23, “For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders, thefts,
covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lewdness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness. All these evil things come from within and defile a man.”
Mar 7:22, “Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit,
lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness:”
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers
“An evil eye.—As explained by Matthew 20:15 (where see Note), the “evil eye” is that which looks askance on the good of others—i.e., envy in its most malignant form.
Is thine eye evil?—The “evil eye” was, as in Proverbs 28:22, that which looked with envy and ill will at the prosperity of others. In Mark 7:22, it appears among the “evil things” that come from the heart. Popularly, as the derivation of the word “envy” (from invidere) shows, such a glance was thought to carry with it a kind of magic power to injure, and was to be averted, in the superstitious belief which still lingers in the East and many parts of Europe, by charms and amulets.”
Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges
“an evil eye, blasphemy] Of these the first denotes concealed, the second open enmity. The evil eye is notorious in the East; here it is the description of an envious look; “invidia et de malis alienis gaudium.” Bengel.”
Lange Commentary on the Holy Scriptures
“the concealed and the open wickedness of self-gratification; whilst the evil eye and blasphemy indicate concealed and open enmity (blasphemy against God and man). Pride or self-exaltation, and foolishness (נְבָלָה), are the internal and the external side of the one ungodly and wicked nature. “The evil eye” is notorious in the East; here it is the description of an envious look.”
Mat 6:23, “But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that darkness!”
Mat 20:15, “Is it not lawful for me to do what I will with mine own? Is thine eye evil, because I am good?”
Luk 11:34, “The light of the body is the eye: therefore
when thine eye is single, thy whole body also is full of light; but when thine eye is evil, thy body also is full of darkness.”
I also find many Americans have a big superstition: it may be called a cultural superstition. Many Americans believe and practice gun for protection. This is a myth. Guns are used to kill many Americans annually. The Administration and Congress are held hostage of National Riffle Association. It is almost impossible for Americans to have guns control and ban guns completely under current Constitution.
There is another superstition believed and practiced by not a few so-called believers. These believers use the Holy Bible improperly, they regard it as a divination or guidance in time of trouble or as fortune telling. The believer randomly opens the Bible and uses finger to point to a verse. The message is deemed as a Word from God. But knowledgeable persons know that the left part of the Bible belongs to the Old Testament and while the right part of the Bible belongs to the New Testament. In the middle is most likely the Book of Psalms. Christians should stop doing this superstitious practice.
Jesus says the Holy Spirit will remind you.
Jhn 14:26, “But the Helper, the Holy Spirit whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and remind you of all that I said to you.”
I recalled once I was sent to preach at another town, my younger brother went with me. In the midst of the sermon, my brother suddenly fell ill. A verse was sent to me from Heaven,
it is written, Pro 3:25, “Do not be afraid of sudden danger,
nor of trouble from the wicked when it comes.”
That gave me strength to go on preaching, and in the end my brother was o.k. to go home with me.
III. SACRED ANIMALS
The sacred animals of some religions include snake, cow, monkey, dog, peacock, crow, antelope, black bear, black cat, buffalo, frog, squirrel, butterfly, tortoise, vulture, fish, etc.
The Chinese Zodiac, is represented by an animal each.
According to https://chinesenewyear.net/zodiac/
Chinese Zodiac Years
Since the Chinese zodiac cycle repeats every 12 years, it’s easy to figure out if it’s your year—just check if your age is a
multiple of 12! Listed below are the 12 zodiac animals in order with accompanying years:
ZODIAC SIGN | CHINESE NAME | ZODIAC YEARS |
鼠 (shǔ) | 1924, 1936, 1948, 1960, 1972, 1984, 1996, 2008, 2020 | |
牛 (niú) | 1925, 1937, 1949, 1961, 1973, 1985, 1997, 2009, 2021 | |
虎 (hǔ) | 1926, 1938, 1950, 1962, 1974, 1986, 1998, 2010, 2022 | |
兔 (tù) | 1927, 1939, 1951, 1963, 1975, 1987, 1999, 2011, 2023 | |
龙 (lóng) | 1928, 1940, 1952, 1964, 1976, 1988, 2000, 2012, 2024 | |
蛇 (shé) | 1929, 1941, 1953, 1965, 1977, 1989, 2001, 2013, 2025 | |
马 (mǎ) | 1930, 1942, 1954, 1966, 1978, 1990, 2002, 2014, 2026 | |
羊 (yang) | 1931, 1943, 1955, 1967, 1979, 1991, 2003, 2015, 2027 | |
猴 (hóu) | 1932, 1944, 1956, 1968, 1980, 1992, 2004, 2016, 2028 | |
鸡 (jī) | 1933, 1945, 1957, 1969, 1981, 1993, 2005, 2017, 2029 | |
狗 (gǒu) | 1934, 1946, 1958, 1970, 1982, 1994, 2006, 2018, 2030 | |
猪 (zhū) | 1935, 1947, 1959, 1971, 1983, 1995, 2007, 2019, 2031 |
This superstition is deep rooted in the culture, the year of Horse does not mean it will bring success for a nation and people so-called马到成功. If you were born in the year of Ox does not guarantee you are going to be diligent and hard working.
IV. NATIONS AND CULTURES OF SUPERSTITION
Superstitions of nations and cultures are encyclopedic.
There is superstition in some nations, it is believed that pigs bring good fortune and financial prosperity.
In some nation, fish are symbol of good luck.
In some nation, crows as well as cows are sacred.
In an ancient culture, sun was worshiped as a force.
In an ancient tribe, bear is viewed as lucky.
In a nation elephant is viewed as good luck and wealth.
In ancient cultures, the horse is viewed as the being that would bring power and fortune.
In some ancient cultures, goldfish is believed to bring good fortune.
In some culture, frog is believed to bring good fortune.
According to https://www.britannica.com/topic/superstition
“A few specific folk traditions, such as belief in the evil eye or in the efficacy of amulets, have been found in most periods of history and in most parts of the world. Others may be limited to one country, region, or village, to one family, or to one social or vocational group.”
No Christians should believe in the “evil eye” explained above,
all Christians, however, believe what the Bible says about the evil eye.
V. THE CONSEQUENCES OF SUPERSTITION
According to https://health.usnews.com/wellness/mind/articles/2016-10-26/how-superstitions-are-affecting-your-behavior
“Are you spooked by Friday the 13th, black cats crossing your path or having to walk under a ladder? Do you often knock on wood after mentioning your good fortune or throw salt over your left shoulder after spilling it to ward off bad luck? If so, you're among the legions of people who are superstitious: A 2014 Harris Interactive/Statista survey of 2,236 adults across the U.S. found that 33 percent of people believe finding and picking up a penny is good luck, and 21 percent believe knocking on wood prevents bad luck. A previous Gallup news poll found that 25 percent of people in the U.S. say they are "very" or "somewhat" superstitious in general.
Where do these beliefs come from? "Superstitions come from traditions and your upbringing – people teach you superstitions; you're not born believing in Friday the 13th or that if you step on a crack, you'll break your mother's back," says Stuart Vyse, a psychologist in Stonington, Connecticut, and author of "Believing in Magic: The Psychology of Superstition." "They also come from the uncertainty of life – if you have something you desire that you cannot make sure will happen," you might engage in superstitious behavior. That's because superstitions often provide the illusion of control.
Believe it or not, being superstitious can affect your behavior and state of mind, influencing everything from your preparation for and performance on a particular challenge to your responsiveness to placebos. In a series of studies in the March 2015 issue of Personality & Social Psychology Bulletin, researchers found that performance goals were more likely to elicit superstitious behavior – especially a penchant for lucky items – than learning goals were. As the participants' uncertainty of achieving their goals increased, their superstitious behavior also increased; by contrast, when they were assigned to use a lucky item, their confidence about achieving their performance-related goals rose significantly.
If you find that you're making important decisions based on false beliefs such as superstitions, "you might be making the wrong decisions," Risen says. If you need to have emergency surgery, and you ask to delay it because it's the 13th day of the month, that's an example of letting a superstitious belief impair your decision-making. Similarly, if you decide not to practice safe sex with a new partner or you engage in excessive gambling because you're wearing your lucky shirt, those are bad ideas, too. Research from Australia found that with problem gamblers, there's a significant relationship between their superstitious beliefs and their gambling intensity.
Generally, superstitions fall into two categories: those that are believed to court good luck (such as having a lucky charm or pre-game ritual) and those that might help you avoid bad luck (like steering clear of a black cat on the street). "People like to have the idea that they can make sense of the world and predict what will happen to them," notes social psychologist Carey Morewedge, an associate professor of marketing at Boston University. "Superstitions serve as external explanations for seemingly causal events" or as a possible way to reduce the odds that something bad will happen.”
According to https://www.webmd.com/mental-health/features/psychology-of-superstition
“Generally speaking, women are more superstitious than men, Vyse says. When was the last time you saw an astrology column in a men's magazine? Women may also experience more anxiety, or at least, more women than men seek help for anxiety problems. Although personality variables are not a strong factor in developing superstition, there is some evidence that if you are more anxious than the average person you're slightly more likely to be superstitious.”
VI. THE CURE OF SUPERSTITION -- REVELATION
Revelation of Jesus Christ as it is written in both the Old and the New Testaments are the Holy Scriptures that can cure superstition of many nations, cultures, and peoples.
The serpent
Gen 3:1-19,“Now the serpent was more cunning than any animal of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said to the woman, “Has God really said, ‘You shall not eat from any tree of the garden’?” The woman said to the serpent, “From the fruit of the trees of the garden we may eat; but from the fruit of the tree which is in the middle of the garden, God has said, ‘You shall not eat from it or touch it, or you will die.” The serpent said to the woman, “You certainly will not die! For God knows that on the day you eat from it your eyes will be opened, and you will become like God, knowing good and evil.”
When the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was a delight to the eyes, and that the tree was desirable to make one wise, she took some of its fruit and ate; and she also gave some to her husband with her, and he ate.
Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves waist coverings.
Now they heard the sound of the LORD God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and the man and his wife
hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God among the trees of the garden.
Then the LORD God called to the man, and said to him, “Where are you?” He said, “I heard the sound of You in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked; so I hid myself.”
And He said, “Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree from which I commanded you not to eat?”
The man said, “The woman whom You gave to be with me, she gave me some of the fruit of the tree, and I ate.”
Then the LORD God said to the woman, “What is this that you have done?” And the woman said, “The serpent deceived me, and I ate.” Then the LORD God said to the serpent,
“Because you have done this, Cursed are you more than
all the livestock, and more than any animal of the field;
On your belly you shall go, and dust you shall eat
all the days of your life; and I will make enemies of you and the woman, and of your offspring and her Descendant; He shall
bruise you on the head, and you shall bruise Him on the heel.”
To the woman He said, “I will greatly multiply your pain in childbirth, in pain you shall deliver children; yet your desire
will be for your husband, and he shall rule over you.”
Then to Adam He said, “Because you have listened to the voice of your wife, and have eaten from the tree about which I commanded you, saying, ‘You shall not eat from it’;
Cursed is the ground because of you; with hard labor you shall eat from it all the days of your life.
“Both thorns and thistles it shall grow for you;
Yet you shall eat the plants of the field;
By the sweat of your face you shall eat bread,
Until you return to the ground, because from it you were taken;
for you are dust, and to dust you shall return.”
2Co 11:3, “But I am afraid that, as the serpent deceived Eve by his trickery, your minds will be led astray from sincere and pure devotion to Christ.”
Rev 12:9, “And the great dragon was thrown down, the serpent of old who is called the devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world; he was thrown down to the earth, and his angels were thrown down with him.”
The dragon
Rev 12:7-9, “And there was war in Heaven, Michael and his angels waging war with the dragon. The dragon and his angels waged war, and they did not prevail, and there was no longer a place found for them in Heaven. And the great dragon was thrown down, the serpent of old who is called the devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world; he was thrown down to the earth, and his angels were thrown down with him.”
Rev 13:2, “And the beast that I saw was like a leopard, and his feet were like those of a bear, and his mouth like the mouth of a lion. And the dragon gave him his power and his throne, and great authority.”
Rev 19:19-20, “And I saw the beast and the kings of the earth and their armies, assembled to make war against Him who sat on the horse, and against His army.
And the beast was seized, and with him the false prophet who performed the signs in his presence, by which he deceived those who had received the mark of the beast and those who worshiped his image; these two were thrown
alive into the Lake of Fire, which burns with brimstone.”
The ravens
1Ki 17:4-6, “And it shall be that you will drink from the brook, and I have commanded the ravens to provide food for you there.”
So he went and did everything according to the Word of the LORD, for he went and lived by the brook Cherith, which is east of the Jordan.
And the ravens brought him bread and meat in the morning and bread and meat in the evening, and he would drink from the brook.”
The dogs
Exo 22:31, “You shall be holy people to Me, therefore you shall not eat any flesh torn to pieces in the field; you shall throw it to the dogs.”
1Ki 21:23, “The LORD has also spoken of Jezebel, saying, ‘The dogs will eat Jezebel in the territory of Jezreel.”

And the leopard will lie down with the young goat,
And the calf and the young lion and the fattened steer will be together; and a little boy will lead them.
Also the cow and the bear will graze,
Their young will lie down together,
And the lion will eat straw like the ox.”
Hos 4:16, “Since Israel is stubborn like a
stubborn cow, will the LORD now pasture them
like a lamb in a large field?”
The bear
1Sa 17:34-37, “But David said to Saul, “Your servant was tending his father’s sheep. When a lion or a bear came and took a sheep from the flock,
I went out after it and attacked it, and rescued the sheep from its mouth; and when it rose up against me, I grabbed it by its mane and struck it and killed it.
“Your servant has killed both the lion and the bear; and this uncircumcised Philistine will be like one of them, since he has defied the armies of the living God.”
And David said, “The LORD who saved me from the paw of the lion and the paw of the bear, He will save me from the hand of this Philistine.” So Saul said to David, “Go, and may the LORD be with you.”
The horse

“I will sing to the LORD, for He is highly exalted;
The horse and its rider He has hurled into the sea.

The horse and his rider He has hurled into the sea.”

man whom the king desires to honor.'”

He does not take pleasure in the legs of a man.
Pro 21:31, “The horse is prepared for the day of battle,
But the victory belongs to the LORD.”
How the world has changed. Today the horse is not prepared for the day of battle, rockets and missiles are.
Zec 9:10, “And I will eliminate the chariot from Ephraim
And the horse from Jerusalem;
And the bow of war will be eliminated.
And He will speak peace to the nations;
And His dominion will be from sea to sea,
And from the Euphrates River to the ends of the earth.”
Rev 19:19, “And I saw the beast and the kings of the earth and their armies, assembled to make war against Him who sat on the horse, and against His army.”
Rev 19:21, “And the rest were killed with the sword which came from the mouth of Him who sat on the horse, and all the birds were filled with their flesh.”

riddle.”

will not benefit them.”
Isa 31:4, “For this is what the LORD says to me:

to devour.”
Rev 5:5, “And one of the elders said to me, “Stop weeping; behold, the Lion that is from the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has overcome so as to be able to open the scroll and its seven seals.”
Rev 10:3, “and he cried out with a loud voice, as when a lion roars; and when he had cried out, the seven peals of thunder uttered their voices.”
The donkey
Num 22:23-33, “When the donkey saw the angel of the LORD standing in the road with his sword drawn in his hand, the donkey turned off from the road and went into the field; and Balaam struck the donkey to guide her back onto the road.”
“Then the angel of the LORD stood in a narrow path of the vineyards, with a stone wall on this side and on that side.
When the donkey saw the angel of the LORD, she pressed herself against the wall and pressed Balaam’s foot against the wall, so he struck her again.
Then the angel of the LORD went farther, and stood in a narrow place where there was no way to turn to the right or to the left. When the donkey saw the angel of the LORD, she lay down under Balaam; so Balaam was angry and struck the donkey with his staff.”
Is it possible that the donkey saw the angel of the Lord while a false prophet Balaam was blinded by greed?
“Then the LORD opened the mouth of the donkey, and she said to Balaam, “What have I done to you, that you have struck me these three times?” And Balaam said to the donkey, “It is because you have made a mockery of me! If only there had been a sword in my hand! For I would have killed you by now!” But the donkey said to Balaam, “Am I not your donkey on which you have ridden all your life to this day? Have I ever been in the habit of doing such a thing to you?” And he said, “No.” Then the LORD opened Balaam’s eyes, and he saw the angel of the LORD standing in the way with his sword drawn in his hand; and he bowed all the way to the ground. Then the angel of the LORD said to him, “Why have you struck your donkey these three times? Behold, I have come out as an adversary, because your way was reckless and contrary to me. But the donkey saw me and turned away from me these three times. If she had not turned away from me, I certainly would have killed you just now, and let her live.”
Is it possible Western leaders and politicians are so blinded by power and money that they could not see their way are reckless and contrary to the Word of God that the wrath of God may strike at them anytime now?
Mat 21:1-11, “When they had approached Jerusalem and had come to Bethphage, at the Mount of Olives, Jesus then sent
two disciples, saying to them, “Go into the village opposite
you, and immediately you will find a donkey tied there and a colt with it. Untie them and bring them to Me. And if anyone says anything to you,
you shall say, ‘The Lord needs them,’ and he will send them on immediately.”
Now this took place so that what was spoken through the prophet would be fulfilled:
“SAY TO THE DAUGHTER OF ZION,
‘BEHOLD YOUR KING IS COMING TO YOU,
HUMBLE, AND MOUNTED ON A DONKEY,
EVEN ON A COLT, THE FOAL OF A DONKEY.’”
The disciples went and did just as Jesus had instructed them,
and brought the donkey and the colt, and laid their cloaks on them; and He sat on the cloaks. Most of the crowd spread their cloaks on the road, and others were cutting branches from the trees and spreading them on the road. Now the crowds going ahead of Him, and those who followed, were shouting,
“Hosanna to the Son of David; BLESSED IS THE ONE WHO COMES IN THE NAME OF THE LORD;
Hosanna in the highest!”
When He had entered Jerusalem, all the city was stirred, saying, “Who is this?” And the crowds were saying, “This is Jesus the prophet, from Nazareth in Galilee.”
It is a surprise or not a surprise, that cat, elephant, ape, tiger,
monkey, chicken are not mentioned in the Bible.
Some ignorant and uneducated people have curious habit of cheerfully feeding wild animals like monkeys. Monkeys like to be fed to save them trouble of looking for food, and so they invade homes and schools to search for food.
CONCLUSION
Since superstition is a false or irrational belief, only the truth can cure it. What is truth? The truth in the Word of God and the truth in Christ.
“a Christian, for example, may believe that in time of trouble he will be guided by the Bible if he opens it at random and reads the text that first strikes his eye. ”
This is a superstitious practice, and all superstitions must be rejected by true Christians who follow Jesus Christ.
For Jesus says, Jhn 18:36-37,
“Jesus answered, “My Kingdom is not of this world. If My Kingdom were of this world, My servants would be fighting so that I would not be handed over to the Jews; but as it is, My Kingdom is not of this realm.”
Therefore Pilate said to Him, “So You are a king?” Jesus answered, “You say correctly that I am a King. For this purpose I have been born, and for this I have come into the world: to testify to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth listens to My voice.”
If you are of the truth, you must listen to the Voice of Jesus.
1Ti 4:7, “But stay away from worthless stories that are typical of old women. Rather, discipline yourself for the purpose of godliness.”
1Ti 4:9-10, “It is a trustworthy statement deserving full
acceptance. For it is for this we labor and strive, because we have set our hope on the living God, who is the Savior of all mankind, especially of believers.”
1Ti 1:15, “It is a trustworthy statement, deserving full acceptance, that
Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, among whom I am foremost.”
Do you want to be saved now? Come to accept and believe in Jesus Christ, the Son of God, your Lord and Savior; and you will be saved.
