Default ex-Satanist back in the flock

Hello everyone…

I’m an ex-Satanist who recently had a profound faith experience and have since renounced my belief that I am my own God. I was touched in a dream and have decided to reach out to others through the relative safety of the internet. I’m in the process of rebuilding my faith and my relationship with God and I’m hoping that with reflection, prayer, and this community, I can begin the long journey back into God’s grace. I’m glad to be here, and hope I am welcome.

Welcome and we are glad that you found our 'family' here. Your revelation is not unique, for it happens many countless times each day. God's power is infinite and His plan for each of us comes about in His own time and in His own way. We just have to be savvy enough to recognize His help and to join with Him and His son, Jesus Christ, on the path to salvation and His Kingdom. The path can be dark and filled with potholes and boulders, but as we accept God and Christ, His Light shines within us and His Light illuminates that path and we begin to clearly see what is ahead.

Blessings to you...

Yes, welcome!

One question: What do you mean by back in the flock?
Were you in the flock one time before??

Waslost all heaven is throwing a party over you now:

Luk 15:7 I say unto you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just persons, which need no repentance.
I'm telling you brother the Father, Son and Holy Ghost have been having meetings, making plans and preparing a celebration over the return of thier lost son. I cannot tell you the joy this is bringing my heart, I am really excited over your decision and I can't wait to see what the Lord is going to do in your life!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Welcome! I believe we were all "satanists" before our conversions, we just wouldn't admit it.

I was baptized Christian, and practiced my faith and religion as a Christian until my early 20's. It was through my studies of world religion, history, the supernatural, and eventually the occult that led me to the specific sect of Satanism I practiced with.

Well, praise God you'r back, there was a seed planted earlier in your life and Jesus kept an eye on you while you were in darkness.
