I'm not EFFIN kidding! Satan is real. He can lie and tell the truth at the same time. Lies and Truth. Good and Evil. Fire and Light. Yin and Yang. Contemplate. A mysterious platonist. Did anyone ever notice that the Universe could be easily described as an Abyss? Children do NOT read this. I'm not EFFIN kidding! Satan is real. He can lie and tell the truth at the same time.

A mysterious platonist.

Did anyone ever notice that the Universe could be easily described as an Abyss?

This started out as a reasonable thread but, wow, there are some real nutters out there. Satanism has rather declined in my area. We used to get together and sacrifice a virgin or two, innocent stuff, nowadays you can't a virgin for love nor money. We did import some from eastern Europe but, alas, the supply has dried up. Its not easy worshipping the prince of darkness these days... Incredible. This started out as a reasonable thread but, wow, there are some real nutters out there.

Amazing really... All the different things people chose to believe in, or not to believe in. ?? I personally don't believe in Satan... but, then again, I also don't believe in God - so, this makes perfect sense to me. Sure, I believe in there is "good" and "evil"... but, I don't think it's because of God or Satan. What I don't understand is how people CAN belive in God, and NOT believe in Satan. ?? If there's a Heaven... isn't there a Hell? And, who would it be "running" Hell, then if you don't believe in Satan? Unless, you also don't believe in Hell.. which, makes me wonder how you can believe in Heaven? I guess I don't get how people can pick and chose the parts of the bible they believe in... ?? As for not hearing Satan talked about at church? I was raised baptist, then pentecostal, and we went to a few different churches over the years. I remember lots of sermons about the terrors of hell... and the threats of Satan impacting our lives... and even the casting out of "evil spirits" and demons from people. And, I live in the Northeast US.... I guess, times.... they are a-changin!... LOL To which, all I can say is GOOD...and NOT fast enough! =) ~smj I found this whole thread pretty interesting.

We either believe what He said -- or we don't. I can assure you, MANY people have direct experience of the enemy. Talk to folks bound in chains by the enemy who are having a hard time getting free because they can't find enough faithful Christians who stand on God's Word to deliver them or who are too afraid to enter that arena due to lack of knowledge or understanding... or FAITH! "This kind goes out by prayer and fasting," is what the Lord said. And it takes continual and fervent prayer. The Lord wants us to press into the darkness to bring in His Kingdom. That's what He's called us to do as His children, to be bold, not "giving way to fear." There are so many people who need our help, our prayers, who are crying out to be released from bondage. The enemy is VERY deceptive in the ways that he keeps these people in complete fear. Poke around the following website and you'll find authentic stories of people... MANY people have been set free, but there are many who are in bondage because they are DECEIVED, told lies that "Once you contract with the devil, he owns you," and lies like that. I know of someone who actually said that to me. To which I replied: "The devil doesn't own anybody. The Blood of Jesus cancels all contracts!" But the deception is actually MUCH more powerful than that!!! Dear brothers and sisters, arm yourselves with His Word, sitting at His Precious Feet, and begin to pray for the release of those who are held captive. <a href="http://www.christian-faith.com/forjesus/out-of-occult-witchcraft" rel="nofollow">http://www.christian-faith.com/forjesus/out-of-oc...</a> We either are with Jesus — or not.
