FINAL WARNING: Setting the Stage for Destruction
began “to call upon the name of the Lord.” (Gen. 4:26) Though it
doesn’t say, the implication is that the line of Cain was ungodly.The apocryphal Second Book of Adam and Eve, bluntly gives details
about this. In chapter 20:2-4, it says: “But as to this Genun (a son of
Lamech), Satan came into him in his childhood; and he made sundry
trumpets and horns, and string instruments, cymbals and psalteries,
and lyres and harps, and flutes; and he played on them at all times and
at every hour. And when he played on them, Satan came into them, so
that from among them were heard beautiful and sweet sounds, that
ravished the heart. Then he gathered companies upon companies to
play on them; and when they played, it pleased well the children of
Cain, who inflamed themselves with sin among themselves, and burnt
as with fire; while Satan inflamed their hearts, one with another, and
increased lust among them.”Although the origin and truth of this apocryphal book can never be
ascertained, and it never became part of the holy canon, it is believed
that the writings were part of an older, more ancient document that
accurately reflected upon the events of this historical period. For a
family line that has been perceived as being ungodly, they developed
musical instruments, and the expertise and ability of producing
weapons of war from metal mined out of the earth. Was the knowledge
of these things God-given? I have concluded that they were not, and
even though the evidence is circumstantial, I believe that Satan,
through demons, divulged this information.Ezekiel 28:13 relates that there were musical instruments created
within the body of Lucifer, and it has been said that every time he
moved, he played music. He led the angelic praise and worship of God.
So when he fell, he knew the importance of music, and how to use it to
his advantage. It seems likely that he would have bestowed the
knowledge of music. Primitive cultures, American Indian ceremonies,
and occult rituals are well known to have used the hypnotic and
influential properties of music to enhance their activities.And through weapons, and the means to wage war, people are
controlled.So, yes, I believe that there was some Satanic influence on the
