The Law.
The whole of the law is love.
Rock stars and celebrities who have sold their souls to the devil have done so on the basis of received knowledge.
This knowledge has been told them by religious authorities and they have made their decision on that basis.
The religious authorities concerned believe that God is harsh and judgmental, that He does not approve of sex, and that homosexuality is an abomination. They also believe that there is a devil who is constantly tempting us with a view to getting us into hell.
On the basis of this knowledge, plus the belief that God does not approve of wealth, the stars have rebelled.
They believe that if God does not approve of sex and wealth then the devil can deliver these things if they sell their souls.
They have made their decision based on false information.
The religious authorities involved have a false image of God which has been handed down from generation to generation through fear and violence.
It is not Jesus' image of God.
There is no devil, neither is there a hell.
Satanism is the inverse of traditional Christianity. And traditional Christianity, as formed under Constantine and Augustine, is false theology.
If there is no devil he cannot deliver wealth and sex.
If there is no hell they cannot get us into it.
Most of their beliefs and practices come from traditional Christianity backwards.
But these beliefs are false.
That is why I can feel some compassion for them. They have been misinformed.
Talent and transits (astrological) account for their success. Failures are ignored. The same things happen to stars who do not sell their souls = sex and wealth. There is no need of Satan.
So God will not blame them.
It is a gigantic misunderstanding.
Neither will God blame the religious authorities who informed them. Their beliefs came from fear that was handed down for generations.
So love your enemies, understand them and understand God.
God is our father. He does not punish His children when they act out of ignorance. Ignorance of the law is an excuse. The law in any case is love.
Do sex and wealth bring happiness?
What brings happiness is our relationships. And our relationships are the love in our lives.
God is love.
The whole of the law is love.
So those who have turned to the devil can be reconciled like the prodigal son.
And those who misinformed them can be illumined. Their fear can be overcome once they see it for what it is - man-made.
Then perhaps we can love God and love our neighbor.
