He Who Deceives the Whole World.

Satan or the devil has been called "He who deceives the whole world." (Revelation 12:9)

And it is true that Satanists in rock music, sports, and entertainment deceive everyone.

Since the 1960s, and before, rock musicians have secretly practised Satanism in their music.

This hidden influence pushes sex and hedonism and encourages drug taking and sin.

This results in untold suffering.

But their ultimate purpose of death* and damnation is hidden in their music.

"Dead Roses", "Sympathy for the Devil", "Their Satanic Majesties Request". "Maxwell's Silver Hammer", "Carry that Weight", "A Friend of the Devil is a Friend of Mine", "Crime of the Century", "We are the Dead", "Ashes to Ashes".....

All these and more curse us and sabotage us.

And it is not just these.

It continues today with rock stars and sportsmen.

Literature is riddled with dark themes:

Night, darkness, shadows, witchcraft, violence, demons, and evil.....

All these things betray their purpose.  

They empower the dark side.

And they turn us to evil.

This is not just some dark fantasy.

It is a deliberate attempt to damn your soul.

So be discerning in your watching and listening,

We have been betrayed.

(*Death to God - St. Paul.)

(NB: I do not believe in a literal devil but I do believe that there are those who do.)

Life and Death.

In Astrology the sign of Scorpio is said to represent sex and death.

This unfortunate anomaly reinforces the negative image of the body and sex in the writings of St. Paul.

And this association forms the basis of black magic and Satanism.

But sex does not bring death.

Sex brings life.

A new life is born from the union of two adults.

So perhaps it is better to associate sex with transformation and rebirth.

Sex brings new life!

Then death is nothing.

The Church.

When we were young the Church was part of the Conservative Establishment and as such it claimed authority and demanded obedience.

The Church taught that God would judge us and punish us with eternal damnation if we disobeyed.

Their attitude to sex was extremely negative and induced guilt and shame.

Homosexuality was never mentioned.

So it is little wonder that an educated generation rejected the Church outright.

The revelations of child sexual abuse were just the last straw.

But after closer scrutiny of the scriptures it has become evident that this traditional Church is not representative of Jesus or God at all.

It is in fact the equivalent of the Priests and Pharisees in the New Testament and as such they are "blind guides". (Matthew 15:14)

God is merciful, forgiving, and gracious.

He does not judge us.

And He does not punish us.

God loves us like our mother.

Only better.

So do not reject God or Jesus because of the teachings of the Church.

"But whenever you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you."  Matthew 6:6 (NRSV)

No Weapons.

If you Google Male Angels you will invariably get images of musclebound angels wearing armor and brandishing swords - ready to fight against the devil.

But evil is not overcome by violence or force.

Evil is overcome by the sheer power of love.

Love is the most powerful force in the universe.

And Love is the inmost nature of God.

So when you image male angels make sure that they have no weapons.

Because it is not weapons that will save us but love.

Holy.

The opposite of evil is not merely good but Holy.

This is a method of understanding the Holiness of the Divine.

It is not some cold, rarified, distant paragon.

It is the pure and perfect refinement of Love.

Homophobia.

The world has become poisoned with homophobia.

Right-wing political forces are attempting to roll back advances made to protect homosexuals.

Countries in Africa and elsewhere are passing laws that criminalize homsexuality.

Some are even introducing the death penalty.

This fuels prejudice and hate.

And the fear that followed AIDS.

But AIDS is cured!

So religious and social objections are invalid.

Homosexuality is acceptable to God.

And gay people go to Heaven.

Brutality.

"Football is brutal."

It is violent and merciless.

And it is the home of the Beast.

Players make the sign of the horns.

And the presentation is riddled with flames.

The commentators use violent language.

And the advertisements are dubious.

So don't put your faith in sports or entertainment.

It is poisoned with Satanism.
