Perhaps but they probably will not go away... Satanism is not exactly a book club or a passing fad.
whats up with the Nun in hot pants? Also, “this is my body, this is my blood” IIRC is something Jesus is supposed to have said. Looks like they are openly mocking God and Christianity to me, not just devil worshiping........just my 2 cent.
May God grant them the grace of repentance and conversion.
>> I would imagine with a little love and attention they would come to know Christ just the same...
That’s what I’ll pray for.
“Satanists ... Will Stage Exorcism”
Great!!
For Jesus says:
And if Satan is casting out Satan, he is divided and fighting against himself. His own kingdom will not survive.
Mt. 12:26
Just like at the DNC convention in Charlotte when the rebel brought his circus to town.
The petition was a waste of time, as this is a first amendment issue and it only served to give this group far more free publicity than they could have gotten otherwise.
Don't count on it.
good point!
I find this very sad, especially looking at the picture because they all seem so young. I find it more reprehensible that the City Parks Department would even allow this. God have mercy on all of them as I’m afraid they will need it.

“Forgive them Father for they know not what they do” is what I think Jesus would say about them and their actions
Operative word being “stage”.
A most perverted and quite satanic aim: “A satanic exorcism intended to draw the Holy Spirit from a follower’s body will wrap up the event, an inversion of Roman Catholic exorcism believed to expel the devil from a person.”
I wonder if and or all of them are prepared to receive any demons that will be attacted to this evil ceremony? Actually the answer is that they probably don’t believe in demons, thus won’t be expecting or realising they are just advertising that their bodies and souls are open for enemey occupation.
This sure is a sign of the times!!!
A prayerful blessing to an evil person is like placing hot coals upon heir heads.
Let love be genuine; hate what is evil, hold fast to what is good; 10 love one another with mutual affection; outdo one another in showing honor. 11 Do not lag in zeal, be ardent in spirit, serve the Lord.
12 Rejoice in hope, be patient in suffering, persevere in prayer. 13 Contribute to the needs of the saints; extend hospitality to strangers.
14 Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse them. 15 Rejoice with those who rejoice, weep with those who weep. 16 Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly; do not claim to be wiser than you are.
17 Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all. 18 If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all. 19 Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave room for the wrath of God;[g] for it is written, Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord.
20 No, if your enemies are hungry, feed them; if they are thirsty, give them something to drink; for by doing this you will heap burning coals on their heads. 21 Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
This is the first time I have heard of a “satanic exorcism.”
It seems unlikely that they will find the Holy Spirit in any of their followers.
Lightning magnet!
They mostly look like a bunch of college students who decided to dress up to go to Satanicon. (No idea if there’s an actual Satanic fan convention, let alone by that name. It seems like such a logical extension of the idea that I’d be surprised if there weren’t.)
Remember, kiddos, it’s all fun and games until one of you starts acting like Regan McNeil...and you all realize it’s not acting.
Excellent point.
How does anyone really know if the host is consecrated or not?
