Ping!
Does it look a lot like Amerika under mr. mulato?
great book - a group of demons explained that Hell is a miserable place that is cold dark and where one stands next to a millions others reliving their regrets for all time...
...has nothing to do with burning and being worked 24/7 by a wipe carrying horned master
I can a test to that same cold in Iraq one nite during my service...insurgents surrounded our location and were going to attack...prayers returned the heat and reality!

Did you ping Pope Francis?
Barf Alert!
Yes, and sadly it still works pretty well despite all the evidence to the contrary.
The closer we get to the end of his free reign to cause humanity mahem, the nastier Satan will get.
An interesting article on “Rome’s Chief Exorcist.”
Thank you for sharing this. satan is on the move right now and the number of attachments I have observed have been increasing. (I never capitalize that name even when it is the first word in a sentence)
I have a hard time with the idea that Satan or demons can create. Counterfeit or twist the Lord’s creation, sure.
I find it more than coincidence that Fox News is running a feature story on Charles Manson right now!!!

“I have a hard time with the idea that Satan or demons can create.”
They create fear. And lots of it. Fear is their greatest tool. But always remember, “God’s perfect Love casts out fear.” It is their fear of God’s Light that is their great weakness. The lie that God’s Love will kill you, when in fact it sets you free.
The dark forces use your anger, fear, jealousy and guilt to make you feel unworthy and afraid of God’s Love. As long as you hold onto these attributes you will feel the need to run from God as His Love will be like hot coals upon your head.
If you allow God’s Love within you, satan cannot come close to you.
Interesting about creation of hell.
While there is, I believe, solid mathematical and physical evidence for God behind the universe, there is absolutely no such evidence for Satan until humankind abstracts that information from its own mind. It seems an invention to which no form of evil is exclusively of human origin, but is rather attached in some way to this agency.
I’m an OT believer who sees the Serpent as God Himself. Any detachment from this view seems to me to undermine monotheism.
We see Nature constantly reduced to ever simpler terms. Although many of the ways into those terms still seem cloudily elusive, others have oft time been rendered with breathtaking clarity. Such it is, I believe with God, Who made His universe that way too.
Thanks for the ping. For sure, this world needs more exorcists.
I am speaking to a large group on this subject next month. My sense is that it will become very interesting.
Awareness on how satan works and an awareness of him is his greatest fear. His strength comes from people not believing in his existence.
Matthew 13 where Jesus speaks of the end times as the weeds in the wheat field are happening now. There is “Global Warming” but it’s due to the increased presence of the Holy Spirit in these tumultuous times.
Wonder what would happen if we did a remote exorcism on Obama!!!!!
((((Hugs))))
