Two small arrays were implanted into Oskam’s skull on each side above the motor cortex, the part of the brain that controls movement.
The electrodes detect signature electrical patterns in the motor cortex that mark when Oskam decides to stand or walk. The electrodes transmit the signals wirelessly to a notebook computer that has been programmed to recognize the transmissions. Oskam wears the computer in a backpack.
The computer then sends the actions to a receiver wired to his spine cord below the injury point. The signals enter the spine and his extremities react as if the directions came directly from his mind rather than having been rerouted through an electronic circuit.
Oskam has been through 40 training sessions and can now get in and out of his car, climb stairs, and once again stand a bar and drink a beer.
The researchers still plan to conduct more tests and the company plans to eventually streamline the technology, and someday develop an identical system for individuals with spinal injuries higher up their backs.
AUTHOR COMMENTARY
[22] Then Jesus answering said unto them, Go your way, and tell John what things ye have seen and heard; how that the blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, to the poor the gospel is preached. [23] And blessed is he, whosoever shall not be offended in me. Luke 7:22-23
The farther the world gets away from Jesus Christ and his word, the more and more the masses seek a miracle outside of God manifest in the flesh; an antichrist if you will that can replicate all of Jesus’ sign gifts, within reason. But right now there are many antichrists and many of them are thinking that the concept of God is foolish when they think they can become their own god.
While what scientists can do is impressive, the underlying motives of most of them – those working on Neuralink and Synchron – have more darker motives in mind.
Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time.
1 John 2:18
[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).

my first thought was these “doctors” are so wicked to withhold the cure from this man but then i stopped and remembered my Lord’s words to the lame man at the pool of bethesda, who couldnt walk for 38 years, Jesus came up to him and said “wilt thou be made whole?” and then the lame man walked and Jesus met up with him at the temple and these next words of my Lord run chills all over my body …. Jesus said to the lame man he just healed ” Behold, thou art made whole: sin no more, lest a worse thing come unto thee.”
and there! thats it! thats the reason this man was lame for 38 years! it was due to sin in his life and Jesus doesnt make known his sin but we all know what sin is, as it’s made very clear in the New and Old Testaments. John 5 KJV 1611
This german man will go back to being lame as soon as that computer turns off. that’s giving him false hope, delusion, deceptive and extremely dangerous if his computer system/program gets hijacked or gets a virus.
I am a wicked vile sinner saved by the grace of God through his finished work on the cross and not of my own works, until the day he shall call me up to meet him in the air and then he will give me new body, a celestial body, a uncorruptable body. Praise the LORD!
