I had enough of my little brother.

My mom says she thinks he is performing rituals or something, because he keeps running off into the woods at night. He sent some evil Satanic messages. This is the one who has been suicidal. I said I wandered too but basically said Jesus leaves the 99 to find the one who is lost.

Last night I texted him (like I NEVER do) and talked to him about the gospel. He said he did not need a Heavenly father and said Christianity is slavery and he is not a dog. I sent him Galatians 5:1:

"For freedom Christ has set us free; stand firm therefore, and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery."

I said it was stupid to believe in demons who hate Christ, but not Christ, and nobody hates anything that they don't believe in. He didn't respond.

Now I've had a very bad day and I feel under attack by a suicidal spirit or something. It is very heavy and dark. I've lost things, I've been getting horrible text messages from a person* attacking me for having anemia with "lolol" at the end and degrading me for needing rest, and I've sworn multiple times ALL of the words today.

Block these numbers, or delete without reading all messages you don't know the sender's number.

Ask your brother what do you believe?
And what evidence do you have for that belief?

Apart from praying for him and living a Christian life style, intelligent conversation is all you can do with him.

So sorry Ducky. Cut those people off if they are doing that to you. They do not sound like very good companions. Get some rest and turn on some Christian music if that helps. There is a plethora on here. Drives that spirit away. Tell it to leave.

Give no place for the enemy to come into your mind and torment you....remember don't let him have any victories.
Remember how Jesus dealt with Satan in the wilderness...everytime Satan tempted Him Jesus didn't engage in conversation He simple spoke
"It is written......"
And finally He said Get behind me Satan....and declared His loyalty to God the Father....and satan left.

Remember also, your not battling flesh and blood, this is the powers of darkness at work...put on your armor....speak the Word over your brother and yourself...and take authority over the enemies attacks...
Sword: The Word of God....it slays the enemy
Shield of Faith: Faith to believe as David did in slaying Goliath....it protects you from the arrows satan shoots at you/
Helmet of Salvation: protects your head/mind from wrong thinking because you now have the mind of Christ
Breastplate of Righteousness: protects your heart...guard your heart against any impure or angry feelings and thoughts. The Holy Spirits Fruits...
Loins gird about with Truth: The Truth of God's Word...Jesus said I am the WAY, the TRUTH, and the LIFE..
Feet Shod with the preparation of the Gospel: Never go out against the enemy to attack without having your plan of action in place...in this case, study His Word, find scriptures to apply here, pray and seek the instructions of the Lord in what to do....be led of the Holy Spirit...

So many Christians see the demons as huge and scary and themselves as powerless over them...

Sorry i should have said person and not people. Small-town logging town girl and kind of rattles off the tongue like that. I will ask him what he believes. I think thats a good idea.

I am ashamed of my behavior after today. I did not give a Christian response to the texts criticising my anemia. I used a two word sentence with seven letters.

Yes and you are so right. I am trying and I have worship music. I know that you can't roll with the anger tide and theres a responsibility to fight the will of the flesh and I'll get through it if I do. I don't have any excuses for it.

It's irritating how much you just feel like you "deserve" or feel "entitled" to be in the darkness and want to sit there. That's the opposite of what we have to do.

Yep. I happens when you confront the darkness. They get very not happy with you...

Just pray through and believe through, Fluffy. And maybe listen to some music that reminds you the Lord loves you.


The good thing about demonic attacks is that they can't last forever, so you just have to weather them until the tide subsides.

Maybe send him a nice text telling him you didn't mean to offend him; you only sent it because you love him and care about him. Then leave it at that (or maybe just leave it alone). I think you did a good thing, only you also have to go easy with people whom Satan has completely conditioned to hate God. It almost requires praying the Lord can get through to him Himself, because only He may be able to get through all the mental barriers the enemy has set up in his head. But all things are possible with God.

LoL!

It happens <laughing>. Just separate yourself from it and don't worry. Draw closer to God and forget all that business. Do that, and the enemy won't be able to touch you, no matter how much he works to convince you otherwise. Just stay in prayer and draw closer to God. He knows you're human, LoL.

yes I know...trust me, I get mad at the enemy everyday and want to slap him right out of my friends and family tbat he deceived....yes ma'am slap him so hard he ends up in a galaxy far, far, far away....:)

but then the Holy Spirit goes....uhum...what was that? And I said ummm I mean Greater is He who is in me than He who is in the World....Jesus is my strength for when I am weak His is made strong....(is that good enough Holy Spirit?).......and he taps His foot and shakes His head....
and then I just go into prayer and let Him teach me how to deal with this situation.......:)

Another one that just came up in cycle. People think I'm too personal sharing what I'm listening to - maybe my stuff is too emotional? - I have no idea, LoL. I just do as I feel led.

But I think stuff with the Spirit of Peace in it (and that's heartfelt) is just the ticket for times like this.

I think I realized what was turning my brother off from Christ. He was baptised with my dad (he lives with him but we dont share the same dad) and sometime after that mom started getting into weird false prophets on YouTube and started warning us that three days of darkness was coming and to stay inside and dont open the windows or the demons will come in.o_O so A lot of crazy sounding things might have made him hate it and go against her.

It was getting weird. But I sent him a message saying if that stuff turned him off from it I understand where he is coming from and we can talk about that. Told him i love him.

I remember rebelling and having the wrong impression, too. I remember sitting in the dark with candles waiting for the world to end at midnight during the Y2K craze, because Jack Van Impe said so.:rolleyes:

He needs spiritual milk first.

That sounds really good. Maybe leave it at that and let him think. Even if that wasn't it, it will still let him know that you understand, which is the exact opposite reaction from what those demons are probably telling him you were going to do.

:( So sorry to read you and your family are going through this. Praying for you.

How old is he?
Are you able to gain access to his room when he's out of the house?
Don't worry about violating his privacy. When he violates your and your households peace of mind, you have aright to find out why.

His remark about Christ and Christianity being slavery is so.ething that can be found in the Satanic Bible.
The original was authored by Anyone Lavay. Newer copies include the name Peter Gilmore, AL's original ghost writer for the book. Mostly, it is a plagiarized work. However, our fsitbbeing called slavery is in that bible. As is the insult against Christ. See if this comes up if you mentionour saviorto your brother. "Pallid incompetence hanging on a tree."
Church of Satan, the AL organization behind the bible , has a forum too.

Has he hurt animals? Church of Satan, and AL himself, claimed they do not commit to rites that harm innocents;children or animals.
However, the statement of the church with regard to sacrifices states they do not sacrifice non-human animals.
Church of Satan is actually a joke. Because the church avows they are atheist.
Ergo, they can't uphold Satan because they first deny God exists.

What they actually are is carnal hedonists that enjoy ritual. And flying in the face of a moral cultural ideology by upholding a counterculture of debauchery.

This does not mean however that impressionable minds miss that. And take them seriously.
The other book AL published, among many, was one that outlined Satanic rituals.

If it were me, I'd check his room. And I'd follow him when he disappears into the woods at night. Bringing my phone to record if necessary.

A lot of evil has been perpetrated by people who claim to be CoS satanists.

Hes 18 and I live in a separate state ... We are 15 years apart, but I know for a fact that he is into Satanism. I would not be surprised if he was reading the Satanic Bible. Gross.

I did tell him "Nobody hates anything they don't believe in." And he didn't have a response for that so far..

He has so many people praying for him. He does not realize how much witchcraft will destroy his mind let alone everything else. Even the seemingly little things will turn on a person eventually - unless God steps in the way.

Praying for you and him too. Would you share his first name to make the prayers more focused?
"Praying for Fluffyyellowduck's brother", seems kind of vague. ;):p

Dear Fluffy, those horrible text messages. Take them seriously. Satanists network.

You don't know where that evil texter is. Is their number visible when they text you? Contact the police and your carrier and file a complaint. Your carrier should be able to retrieve the deleted messages.
Keep any future ones. You want to build a case against that psycho.

Satanists operate in what are called, grottos. Sometimes they're called covens. Church of Satan use the term grotto. Though they claim they've done away with that system, they still gather as Satanists.

And they still perform dark rites.

There is no 411 operator for a cell phone number search. This means someone who has your cell number gave that evil texter your number.

God be with you.

Thank you @Amazed@grace FORTUNATELY.. It is not that. I know the person and that is just something they do when they are frustrated with me. I wasn't doing what they wanted right away and I was getting confused and stressed, sort of disassociating so I needed to sit, and so they sarcastically talked off to me about my needing to take naps and compared my anemia to their diagnosis and started questioning me about it. Not really out of caring, just them trying to make their point and discredit me.

Probably a boring read but basically it gets hard to function because I get confused, cant think, and have trouble getting around and taking care of things. I just go around in circles. Very foggy headed
