Add Part V ch02–ch03 (demonology), expand Testimony, capitalize entities
Part V Demonology: - ch02 The Enemy's Doorways & Discernment: taxonomy (ranks Peon→Foot Soldier→Soldier→General; the rule of ownership), three phases (Infestation→Oppression→Possession, corroborated by Ed Warren / Amorth), doorways (occult, objects, places=history, trauma, generational sin, sin/metanoia, sound), ranked signs, corroboration discernment, authority. - ch03 Possession: body-not-spark; three stages (obsession rejected); documented + witnessed signs; subtypes (classic/pact/transient); deliverance built on ch01 + rule of ownership; aftercare. Dr. Richard Gallagher verified (CNN/WaPo) and corrected (Catholic layman, not clergy). Part III Testimony: new accounts #16 The Girl in the Bedroom, #17 The Stranger at Walmart, #18 The Possessed Man (appended to preserve 1–15 numbering and cross-refs). Book-wide: hostile entities now capitalized (Demon/the Enemy/Legion/ranks); adjective "demonic" stays lowercase. Retroactive sweep of Part I ch01/ch03/ ch04, Part II ch02, Part III, Part V ch01. Docs: OUTLINE, GLOSSARY, STYLE-GUIDE updated. Input seeds (part5-ch02/ch03) and research folders (generational_sin, sin, stages_of_posession_research) plus daily_prayer.md and additional_testimony.md added.

| the Christ (vs. Jesus) | The Revealer | part1-doctrine/ch01 (§7) | In our teaching, the spirit of the Christ descended into the man Jesus; the Revealer who brings gnosis. Calling his name activates the divine spark. |
|

| the Oneness | The divine destination | part1-doctrine/ch01 (§6) | What our activated power flows to, through Jesus; our term for return/union with the Fullness. |
|

| reincarnation (the loop) | Doctrine | part1-doctrine/ch01 (§10) | The trap that forces the soul to fight the Demiurge and Archons across lifetimes; memory wiped between lives. The "return" breaks the loop. |

|

| Legion | Hostile entity / name | part3-testimony/ch01 (#3) | The name returned through the static when pressed; the demon-name Jesus also drew out (Mark 5:9). **In our reading: not a name or entity but a lie** — the Enemy claiming greater numbers than exist, to instill fear (Part V ch02 §1). |
|
||||
| the Enemy | Collective title | part5-demonology/ch02 (§1) | Our collective term for the hostile powers — Demons and the lower spirits we contend with. Capitalized. |
|
||||
| Peon / Foot Soldier / Soldier / General | Ranks of the enemy | part5-demonology/ch02 (§2) | The family's rank-taxonomy by power/presence: Peon (least, first to infest) → Foot Soldier (lays groundwork for oppression) → Soldier (strong presence; strikes, moves objects) → General (extraordinary power; rarely faced). |
|
||||
| rule of ownership | Doctrine / tactics | part5-demonology/ch02 (§2) | You must own the ground outright (not rent, not mortgaged) to truly cleanse it; otherwise you lack lasting dominion and the Enemy can return. Governs the Part VI cleansing rites. |
|
||||
| Infestation / Oppression / Possession | The three phases | part5-demonology/ch02 (§3) | The Enemy's campaign: many gather (infestation) → wear down and break body+psyche (oppression) → inhabit the person (possession, the goal). Documented record (Ed Warren) names the same three; Catholic/Amorth adds "obsession" between oppression and possession — we fold it into oppression. |
|
||||
| possession (body, not spark) | Doctrine | part5-demonology/ch03 (§1) | The Enemy takes the *body/vessel*, not the divine spark (which is God's, inviolable); free will is severely compromised, not erased — which is why anyone can be delivered. *(Author confirmation pending.)* |
|
||||
| possession subtypes (classic / partial / transient) | Documented record | part5-demonology/ch03 (§4) | Three roads into possession: classic (through the stages) · partial (by a pact) · transient (by a curse / rights given by others). Mapped to our doorways. |
|
||||
| doorway / gateway | Concept | part5-demonology/ch02 (§4) | Any opening through which the Enemy enters; most trace to *attention* (invitation, seeking, objects carried home, cracks left open). A literal door is not itself the danger — what crosses it is. |
|
||||
| generational sin | Doctrine | part5-demonology/ch02 (§4) | Inherited vulnerability (not a transferred curse): a Demon that knew an ancestor returns for the children, and weakness is carried in generational memory/DNA. Honest biblical tension (Ex 20:5 vs. Ezek 18:20). |
|
||||
| metanoia ("repent") | Concept | part5-demonology/ch02 (§4) | Greek *meta* + *noia* = "change your mind." In our reading, "repent" = change your way and learn, **not** shame/guilt; sins are teaching moments. |
|
||||
| phasing | Concept | part1-doctrine/ch04 (§1) | How spirits move: shifting their own frequency to cross between dimensions of differing vibration (rather than travelling through space) — hence fleeing shadows, moving objects, and the "speed of thought." |
|
||||
| speed of thought | Concept | part1-doctrine/ch04 (§2) | Because they phase rather than travel, distance is nothing to these beings; help (or harm) can arrive in the instant — the comfort being that a call for aid has no distance to come. |
