Satanism: Reverse Christians
built 614 days ago
Satanism, the worship of Satan, developed from the religious doctrine that there are two supreme beings - one good, the other evil. It involves black magic, sorcery, and the invocation of demons and the forces of darkness, who are propitiated by blood sacrifices and similar rites. In Christian cultures these ceremonies include the Black Mass, a mockery of the Christian rite.

Satanism has been linked to certain oppresive heavy matal rock bands and teenage suicides and murders. Some troubled teens apparently turn to Satanism when they feel powerless and abandoned by thier families, the world and the christian god. They join cults that encourage, or require, them to carry out acts of violence to prove thier homage to Satan. Drug abuse is common. The ritual violence gives them a sence of power.

Some of you reading this have been in Satanism and the Occult in the past but are now christians. Since you are a christian now, you belong to God and Satan has no right to rule over you anymore, cause you are a child of God. <Colossians 1:12, John 1:12> No matter the past you are now a new creation that belongs to God.< 2 Corintians 5:17> The past has nothing to do with you anymore! However, Satan may still try to take you back into darkness, but when he does just tell him to leave in Jesus name and he will have to flee from you. <James 4:7>
