Wir werden dich kontrollieren!

“We will control you, Br. Mendenhall!”

To say I was in shock would be an understatement. This comment had come along with his fist pounding on the Stake President’s desk. It was the 2nd counselor that had threatened such, but he was backed up by the Stake President and the other counselor. I told them that “control” was the other guys program, you know, Old Scratch (Satan). Our Lord Jesus Christ doesn’t do control. If you are a Priesthood leader or a Religious leader and don’t understand this concept, please read real slowly Section 121 of the D&C. You know, where it mentions control, compulsion, and unrighteous dominion along with the dire consequences of exercising them. Two weeks later these men would deny ever saying such a thing, even calling my wife and me liars. Though as I now think about it, the counselor was most likely possessed and actually didn’t realize what he was demanding. Demons will do that to you.

Later I would be told that if I didn’t do what they told me they’d take my temple recommend away. More control. I gave it back to them, realizing that when I did, they had lost their “supposed” power over me, other than my membership in the club which was becoming less desirable by the day.

Why do men and women love to control others?

I mentioned in the last blog about the returned Sister missionary and the controls that had been placed on her. It is quite interesting to see what they did to her, so let’s take a look.

This is all spiritual weaponry, but it does cause problems with the physical, mental, spiritual, and emotional bodies.

When I first laid hands on her head I didn’t know what it was I was seeing, it was so strange. My sighted friend said it was a habit, like some nuns wear. She was right, it did look like that, only different somehow. Below is a photo from the TV series The Flying Nun with the ladies wearing a habit similar to what I saw:

The difference was the “wings” on the side went downward, made of metal, and were rusty. I asked my sighted friend and she confirmed it “was a habit, only the ‘wings’ went downward and it was indeed rusty metal.” Why would this have been put on her?

Could it be because the doctrine she was to teach is watered down? Was it that what was going to be taught wasn’t worth much and it helped the sister missionary to think certain ways? It was removed. After, my sighted friend’s warrior guardian suggested the doctrine had rusted and that is why the habit was misshapen and rusted.

She had a caul which has been discussed on this blog before. That is to prevent revelation from coming down from the Light and entering into her crown chakra. It is like a filter. Typically a caul will have tentacles coming down off it into the brain with tendrils coming off of the tentacles. This is also about control.

Many individuals will have software in the brain area along with an entity that has been taught how to operate it in order to control the mortal.

There was a collar around her neck that was dainty and went down the front of her chest. This is where a leash can be attached, you know like a dog, in order to control it. It was made to look pretty so it will be accepted easier by the slave, I mean person.

She had a yoke on her shoulders. This is to make her burden heavy, unlike the Savior whose yoke is easy and burden is light. You get it, there is the opposite in all things. The yoke was connected to mesh that went down her arms to her fingers. This was also meant to control her and her actions.

On her hips down to her toes was chicken wire. This was to prevent her from doing her own walk. She was to go where they told her to go, only in certain areas and wasn’t allowed to go outside that boundary.

Of course there were other things on her, but this will give you a real good idea of what a Religion that seeks to control its members can put on or in one of them. After all, she did sign a contract, well, several of them if you think about it. One accepting the call and all its stipulations and a temple recommend with all its stipulations and who knows what else.

There are probably many that think all of this control is a good thing.

None of this is meant to disparage missionaries. I was one once, as were my three boys. I’m grateful they went out and grew as men. Though I never thought what might have been put on them by a Religion that knows how to control its members. This is isn’t just about my church. I believe ALL Religions seek to control. The Lord Jesus Christ does not.

By the way, the title is in German and says, “We will control you!”
