The Enneagram: Understanding the Sinister Deception
The Enneagram, often presented as a harmless personality test, is actually a manipulative tool rooted in occultic origins. It claims to guide individuals to their true selves and diagnose their sin patterns. However, it undermines the core beliefs of Christianity by suggesting that individuals don't need to be saved from their sins. The Enneagram uses manipulative tactics such as "outs" and the "rainbow ruse" to make generalized statements that feel specific to individuals. Scientifically, it lacks validity as a personality test. Christian influencers promoting the Enneagram include Beth McCord, Ian Cron, and Elizabeth Bennett. Christians should be aware of the subtle ideas the enemy plants through the Enneagram, challenging the need for true salvation and replacing it with a self-serving spirituality. It is crucial to prioritize what is true and rely on scripture as the objective standard, guarding against deceptive teachings.
