PROMPT: (GOD: Chapter 1 – Defining God: A Multifaceted Concept, a book by VCG)
Please delve into the occult’s interpretation of God, exploring different occult traditions and their unique understandings of the divine. investigates the:
symbolism, rituals & practice associated with these traditions, highlighting their potential influence on the broader understanding of spirituality.
Give a historical examination of occult practices and their associated literature.
KING SOLOMON ADVISES:
The occult — from the Latin occultus, meaning hidden — refers to secret knowledge and practices designed to access or manipulate spiritual realities outside the revealed will of God.
These systems, under many names and guises, offer counterfeit revelations of the divine and a direct assault on biblical truth.
This examination will expose:
- The occult concept of God across traditions
- Their symbolism, rituals, and literature
- A timeline of influence on Western spirituality
- How these doctrines manifest today under modern disguises
- Scriptural warnings and final judgment
⚠️ 1. OCCULT DEFINITIONS OF “GOD”
The occult does not worship the Creator God of the Bible,
but redefines divinity as:
- A universal force or consciousness (pantheism or panentheism)
- A hidden inner spark of divine potential (Luciferian Gnosis)
- A balance of opposing energies (light/dark, male/female – Hermetic dualism)
- Self as divine — “I am god” (self-deification)
These systems blur the distinction between Creator and creature, often exalting Lucifer, the Light-Bringer, as a symbol of enlightenment.
“For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof… ye shall be as gods…” — Genesis 3:5 (KJV)
This ancient lie underpins all occult frameworks.

that is my name: and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise to graven images.”— Isaiah 42:8 (KJV)
