THE TRUTH ABOUT SATANIC CULTS
One
of the delusions that we will clear up at the outset of this expose is the lie
that leading Satanist’s do not believe in or truly worship the devil. First of all it should be understood that
Anton LaVey, the founder of the Church of Satan viewed Satan as a true entity
that he truly worshipped before his death.
Anton LaVey deceived a lot of people who joined the Church of Satan by
claiming that Satan only represented the repressed forces of nature but was not
a real entity. In my interviews with
former Charles Manson family member Susan Atkins, who is still in prison after
being convicted of eight murders, Atkins blew the lid off of Anton’s lie. As a former associate of Anton LaVey’s, who
danced for him and spent personal time with him before joining the Manson
family, Atkins was privy to conversations with LaVey before he became
popular. Atkins told me repeatedly that
while LaVey promotes a watered down, palatable form of Satanism to the ignorant
masses which he is deceiving, he acknowledged the exact opposite to her and to
his inner core of Satanist in the church of Satan. Susan Atkins told me that LaVey told her emphatically while she
was in his home that they truly worshipped Satan as a real entity and as the
one who began the initial rebellion against God. Atkins also stated:
“Anton told me that as a Satanist he does
believe in the God of the bible but he refused to worship him and made a
conscious decision to worship Satan instead.” (Personal interview with
Susan Atkins)
We
have pictures of Atkins with LaVey in his ritual chamber when she associated
with the Church of Satan. LaVey was
aware that few people were ignorant enough to truly turn their lives over to
Satan, knowing that they would not only be allowing themselves to be deceived
by their worst enemy but that they would spend eternity in the fiery torments
of hell. LaVey therefore presented a
seeker sensitive, user-friendly form of Satanism in the hope that it might
appeal to the masses he was seeking to deceive. LaVey sought to put a spin on
Satanism as a kinder and gentler form of Devil worship claiming that Satan
merely represents a force in nature and that rather than Satanist’s sacrificing
animals and little children they are animal activist who love children. All of this was done to garner unwitting
recruits. For starters, one should
never trust a Satanist. Satanist’s view
lying to be among their highest virtues as do true Christians truth. LaVey and other Satanist serve the one who
Jesus repudiated as “The father of lies”. (John
8:44) It would be just like the father
of lies to cloak his religion in non-reality.
Satan has long been about deception and has successfully deceived many
recruits into believing that they are simply worshipping a symbol rather than a
reality. Satan relishes in such
ignorance. Atkins’ testimony that LaVey
was deliberately duping Satanists in the outer circle is corroborated by evidence
from LaVey’s own admissions. LaVey let
his guard down when responding to other Satanist that considered him, “not
extreme enough”. LaVey, while in a
defensive mode, admitted that the image that he presented publicly was
deceptive, declaring:
“If they’re at all intelligent [other true
Satanist] …they’ll realize that there’s only so much I can say publicly…I will
not advance things in print which make my position untenable…How long would the
Church of Satan have lasted if I hadn’t appeased and outraged in just the right
combination? It required a certain
amount of discretion and diplomacy to balance the outrage.” (Lucifer
Rising, p. 133)
Purposeful
deception is needed among leading Satanist to enslave those who they recruit as
unscrupulous and unsuspecting pawns who feel more comfortable believing Satan
is a symbol for force. Few Satanists
realize the evil intentions among the inner core of Satanists and how they view
lower initiates as mere puppets to be used and later discarded. Those in the higher echelon of the movement
are often aware of the nature of Satan and the demonic realm that they
serve. Notwithstanding they are often
bound and blinded on another level because they have become addicted to the
power that Satan deceptively promises.
Kenneth Anger, who was a cofounder of the Church of Satan with Anton LaVey, used a similar spin on Satanism,
as did LaVey. Kenneth Anger stated in
the 1960’s, in his film, Lucifer Rising,
that, “Lucifer is the light god, not the
devil,” (From the jacket of the film Lucifer Rising). This delusion that Lucifer is really the
God of light and not Satan should not surprise us as God’s word warns that
Satan himself “masquerades” as an “angel of light” to draw the
unsuspecting into his evil web and that his agents do the same:
And no wonder,
for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light. It is not surprising, then,
if his servants masquerade as servants of righteousness. Their end will be what
their actions deserve.” (2 Corinthians 11:13-15)
Years
later, after Kenneth Anger had deceived multitudes of people into thinking they
were worshipping the supposed “light god”,
an entity that was not really Satan, Anger “confessed” that Lucifer whom he worships had always been the
historical “Satan.” (Lucifer Rising,
p. 47) It was too late though for many
Satanists who had been deceived and long before died in their sin and are in
hell right now. It is too late for the
multitudes that are now cursing Satan, Anton LaVey and Kenneth Anger from the
place of indescribable and horrific eternal torment. It is not to late though for the reader who may have been
deceived by the same lie and yet still has a small window time to turn from
Satan to Christ and be saved. It
appears that Marilyn Manson is merely playing the same mind game with his fans
as did LaVey and Anger. Besides
following LaVey who deceived his followers, Manson admitted, “I’ve taken a lot of my inspiration from Kenneth Anger.” Sadly, while the leaders among Satanists
realize that Satan is for real, many who swell the ranks of their churches have
been duped into believing that they are in some nature religion. They are taught that either a real Satan
does not exist or that hell will not be all that hot. This of coarse is sheer non-sense! Anton LaVey himself was severely deceived as he stated in his Satanic Bible that he would reign with
Satan in hell. Anton now realizes he
was the most deceived of all. The
Scriptures are clear that Hell was created as
a place of torment for Satan and his angels. (Matt 25:40-43) Moreover God’s Word declares that Satan
will be stripped of his power and rendered “weak” and “covered with
worms”. Satan will be rendered one
of the weakest and most pathetic beings is the universe, an object of ridicule
and scorn by those who were deceived by him.
Those who have been deceived by him will marvel that this once powerful
fallen angel has been rendered powerless and will mock him as a “carcass trodden under foot” in their
torment. (Isaiah 14:9-19) So even
leaders in the church of Satan who are deceiving their initiates are themselves
deceived, believing that they will have some place of power in Hell. As the apostle Paul prophesied:
“Evil men and impostors will go from bad to worse, deceiving and being
deceived.” (2 Timothy 3:13)
Richard
Ramirez, known as the night Stalker, was deceived by Anton LaVey’s assertion in
the satanic bible that Satanists could reign in hell. Ramirez believed that his human sacrifices to Satan would earn
him a place of rulership in hell next to Jack the Ripper and other serial
killers. (See our article on
Ramirez) Further evidence of what
leading Satanists really believe is proven by in admissions by Lieutenant
Colonel Michael Aquino of the United States Army. Aquino was a leader in Anton LaVey’s Church of Satan and said to
be LaVey’s “second-in-command”
before he broke off to begin his own satanic order called The Temple of Set. Aquino ended up taking several of LaVey’s
followers with him. The Temple of Set
would eventually attract the likes of Anton LaVey’s daughter Zeena LaVey. So rabid a Satanist is Aquino that he had
the number 666 tatooed on his scalp.
The Temple of Set proclaims
that Set, another name for Satan, is a real entity and is a name for, “The oldest known form of the Prince of
Darkness.” Aquino seems to have
been under the conviction that society had become so jaded that many of those
in the outer circle of Satanism were ready to worship Satan as a real
entity. Aquino believed it was time for
Satan to come out of the closet in all of his naked deformity. Aquino even took the more up front view of
Satanism to the television airways where he virtually admitted that Satan is a
real entity and that many are in the dark as to whom they are really
worshipping, including millions of New Agers.
On Oprah Winfrey, Aquino acknowledged that they are following the
infernal being that orchestrated the initial rebellion against God, the creator
of the universe. Aquino admitted to
Winfrey and the television audience made up of millions that they are following
Satan who initiated the original rebellion against God:
“We believe that this quality [to oppose
God’s natural order] in the human soul that makes it different from all other
life forms…was deliberately inculcated in humanity in its distant evolutionary
past by an active agency that is acting in defiance of the universal norm
[God’s moral law]. And that agency has
been caricatured…as Lucifer, as Satan, and in the greatest antiquity by the
ancient Egyptians as Set.”
Aquino
went on to describe how they believe that they as Satanist are now becoming
god’s. This was at the heart of Satan’s
initial rebellion and now Aquino was parroting the essence of Satanism, which
is a desire to usurp the true and living God’s authority and follow Satan into
God realization. “We are not servants of some God,” declared Aquino; “we are our own god’s!” Oprah Winfrey appeared to be shocked to find
out that this was exactly what she believed as a New Ager, failing to realize
that the New Age movement has it roots in Crowleyan Satanism even as Aquino’s
Satanism. We have already proven beyond
a shadow of a doubt that Crowley was not only a confessed Satanist but that he
was the father of the Hippie movement from which popular New Age teachings
first became entrenched in Western civilization. (See our expose on Aleister Crowley) Almost gasping for air,
Winfrey declared in response to Aquino’s assertion:
“Well, the way you explain
this is very the way a lot of people who are into metaphysics now and the New
Age movement and New Age thinking, they say the very same thing. Are you saying that it’s the same?”
Aquino,
without skipping a beat, said “Yes” to Winfrey question, implying that New
Agers and Satanist are on the same wave length in their rebellion against God
and in their quest to achieve god-hood as they follow in Satan’s footsteps. He only clarified that most New Agers are
not aware that they have joined a satanic rebellion against God and that
Satanists know what’s going on. Aquino
stated:
“Yes, except that I would
say we [Satanists] have a more precise grasp…We would say that we understand
what’s actually happening a little better than many New Agers.”
Much
to Aquino’s chagrin the Temple of Set would find out that even as debauched as
the world has become most people are still smart enough not to knowingly serve
Satan and end up spending eternity in hell.
After bringing Satan out of the closet The Temple of Set failed to
enlist the large amount of recruits they apparently hoped for. In their failure to acquire more recruits
they changed their method of evangelism and returned to a formula more in
keeping with that of the Church of Satan.
Today the Temple of Set like the Church of Satan espouses a more
palatable seeker sensitive form of Satanism so as not to scare off potential
recruits. The result is that Satan is
once again cloaked in ambiguity and the song remains the same as inner circle
initiates are deceiving outer circle initiates.
Winfrey
was surprised that Aquino as a confessed Satanist would try to deny the hard
facts of the evil behind Satanism when Aquino stated that they as Satanists
have “nothing to do with evil,” she said:
“It’s just difficult for me
to understand that the devil is a good thing…that Satan isn’t evil, which is
the opposite of what everybody in this world has been taught…”
Winfrey
went on to exclaim:
“In every state of the
nation authorities are investigating some form of what they call satanic
activity…Children are telling the same stories about infants being murdered
before their eyes in strange devil rituals. The list of bizarre stories goes on and on.”
Not
surprisingly Aquino tried unsuccessfully at this point to put another typical
spin on Satanism by claiming that they are not into such things. Even as leading Satanists like to hide the
fact that they are truly worshipping Satan so it is that they seek to deny that
Satanists sacrifice humans including children.
The truth of the matter is that Aleister Crowley, whom Aquino
acknowledges, had an incredible influence on Aquino and the Temple of Set, not only taught his
followers to engage in child sacrifice but admitted to sacrificing scores of
children himself. We have fully
documented this fact in our article on Crowley. After Aquino made the false claim that Satanist don’t really
sacrifice children a law enforcement officer spoke up and stated:
“To say that there are no
bodies and that these [Satanists] are not committing crimes is the farthest
from the truth…in every case that I’ve investigated, now extending over 200, I
have found this particular book [The Satanic Bible].”
At this point the investigator held up
a satanic bible. In the satanic bible
LaVey seeking “not advance things in
print which make my position untenable” lest he find himself behind bars,
stated that his followers were to commit human sacrifices by proxy:
“We
perform human sacrifices, by proxy you might say—the destruction of human
beings who would, let’s say, create an antagonistic situation toward us—in the
form of curse and hexes, not in actual blood rituals because certainly the
destruction of a human being physically is illegal.”
Note
that the only reason LaVey concedes that he is not publicly advocating actual
physical human sacrifice is because it is against the law, implying that if
they could get away with it they would do it.
In fact LaVey takes credit for the death of Jayne Mansfield’s and her
boy friend and Lawyer Sam Brody, stating that it was a result of a ritual curse
on Brody, and Mansfield happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong
time. LaVey also believes that he was
responsible for the Manson family murders.
Manson was heavily influenced by the satanic cult known as the
Process. The Process also acknowledged
that Satan is a real entity. Their
particular twisted spin in an effort to get unwitting recruits was not to
pretend Satan was not a true entity but to claim that Satan was actually a
Jesus loving devil. The Process claimed
that they Jesus and Satan had reconciled and that all would work out well in
the end for everyone including Satanists, because Jesus had supposedly forgiven
the devil. Ridiculous as this spin was
it proved successful in garnering more than a few recruits. The bodies have piled up and the idea that
Satanism is not behind the death of countless multitudes of innocent people is
a lie only believed by the incredibly naive.
Manson who was a confessed Satanist was responsible of up to 35 murders
if the admissions of some of his former followers are to believed. Charles
Manson, whom Marilyn Manson cites as one of his preeminent inspirations and a
brilliant philosopher, has stated, “Jesus
Christ is for real and so is that other guy [i.e. Satan].” Charles Manson knows that Satan whom he
serves is a real entity and has been more candid than has his follower Marilyn
Manson. Son of Sam who was part of a
Process coven made up of 22 Satanists and connected to several other satanic
covens also murdered several people at the direction of the coven. We show his video taped admissions in our
video They Sold Their Souls for Rock n
Roll. (full length version) Richard Ramirez who followed the satanic bible
and met with Anton LaVey before his satanic killing spree killed 20
people. Ramirez even went so far as to
torture his victims and made some “swear
to Satan.” Between Manson, Son of
Sam and Richard Ramirez alone we have dozens of murders in the name of
Satan. We could easily add to this list
case after case that could easily fill a book but we have more than
sufficiently made our case for those who will honestly look at the evidence! We
have now seen conclusive evidence that the most influential and notorious
satanic leaders have had a campaign to dupe their followers into becoming
unwitting followers of Satan himself.
We have seen not only their admissions but the deceptive web they have
spun to prey on outer circle initiates.
Dear
reader, if you have been deceived by any of the aforementioned Satanists, we
plead with you to recognize the magnitude of the deception at hand. We plead with you to recognize that which is
obvious to all of us who have eyes to see and ears to hear. Jesus Christ promised that he would not cast
away any that would come to Him. (John 6:37) Turn to him now before it is too
late. Your life is very short and Satan
is playing for keeps and your soul is his prey. Wake up and turn from these demonic parasites that prey upon your
souls and turn to the Lord Jesus Christ who loves you and died for your sins so
you would not have to go to hell. It is
not by accident that you are reading this article. God is seeking to use this article to open your eyes to a
deception that has deceived you for too long.
Do not bet your soul on Satan, he is the ultimate loser! Don’t gamble, you will surely lose! The odds are too great, the stakes are too
high and eternity is far too long. Cry
out to God right now and receive Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior. If you do He will miraculously deliver you
from demonic powers. He will deliver
you from Hell and give you a new destiny.
He will deliver you from the penalty of death and give you new
Life. Hope to see you in heaven!
