Power and control is extremely unholy because it resembles a form of Satanic possession, without only malevolent spirit form.
The attempt to control or possess what belongs to the Lord and to desecrate the temple of the Holy Spirit constitutes sacrilege.
Committing prolonged and continuous acts of unholy power and control is inherently destructive and damning.
We must not seek to control individuals through power, nor should we attempt to possess someone like a slave. Doing so crosses into areas that belong to the Lord, leading to hindrances and desecrations of the Holy Spirit.
This behavior causes the abuser's spirit to become unholy and unclean and we must struggle against them (Ephesians 6:12).
Once the spirit becomes unclean, it will not be permitted into heaven but will be cast into hell (Matthew 5:29-30, Revelation 20:14-15, Mark 1:23-27, Matthew 5:8).
The road to hell is paved with good and definitely bad intentions. Good intentions can lead to adverse outcomes, while bad intentions will certainly result in negative consequences.
No matter the intention, when harm is done, decisive corrective action is required for true redemption to take place.
Sometimes, people are led to believe that sins are permissible and will be forgiven if you only have faith, or that the ends justify the means. However, this is simply not true.
Sins are not permitted, and the desired outcomes do not justify the means of corruption and sin. Neither you nor ministers and priests possess the moral authority to override Jesus Christ and the Lord for personal gain.
Not all individuals are sinners, just as not all are liars.
There are no excuses.
If we commit harm or sinful acts, we must confess (1 John 1:9), repent, atone, and clean and purify our souls and hearts in order to receive salvation.
Know that not all sins are forgivable. Even if the victim forgives, it does not mean that the Lord will (Matthew 12:31-32, Mark 3:28-29).
Though absolution, the forgiveness of sins, is often performed after confession by ministers and priests, the unrepentant or unclean sinner cannot receive the absolution when still imprisoned and blocked by sin.
This can be compared to an addict not yet on the wagon, and attempts at intervention will fail, because the addict has not yet admitted their addiction and fully gone through the twelve-step program to get clean.
Furthermore, the sin which Jesus has implicitly stated as unforgivable (Matthew 12:31-32, Mark 3:28-29), is not overridable by ministers or priests or even the Apostles regardless of the scriptural interpretation and translation.
We also know that Jesus will not forgive unholy, unrepentant sinners, even if those are believers for Christ clearly stated, “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.
On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’
And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness’” (Matthew 7:21-23).
It is crucial to recognize that unholy practices, such as power and control, will corrupt the abuser's spirit with grandiose sacrilege and harm. Depending on the severity of these actions, the consequences will be extremely damning and may not be forgiven by the Lord.
You need only to consult your conscience and look in the mirror or seek the guidance of holy sages for a second opinion to see if it is true.
