Is Johathan a drunk? this is the most stupid video i have ever seen.
When I was young I thought satanism was cool. Now it's just a fat gay guy in heels and a thong :(
You completely misrepresented what "do what thou wilt" is saying, as well as "Luciferianism."
You also contradicted the very foundation of the United States, unironically.
'Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law'. No wonder so many narcissists are drawn in.
No its deeper. Narcissism is now a breed more or less. Virtue is no longer a term anyone is familiar with when theyve been conned into the instant gratitude of sin....
Yep, they see it as "why would a wolf concern itself with the issues of sheep." Some even take it beyond that and it's "I'm a wolf, you are a sheep, I'm supposed to prey upon you." But then, there's a level that's even darker and it's legit union with dark forces, in a religious, ceremonial/ritual way.
This is a worldview inspired by the french Satanist author Rabelais
Satanism is simply the worship of a separate self. It's the ego's religion.
yeah and people don't get why that's bad
We have all lost sight of who we are as God created us, or else we wouldn't be here. The ego thinks the body is its home. As long as we identify with our ego, we will dream the dream of separation from God. @brettpid6416
Interesting 🤔. I think that's a good definition.
Which is what Lucifer/ Satan did he refused to serve God
Exactly
Well said Jonathan, you speak clearly of the Deceiver, what it represents and the world to come if that entity had all the control it seeks. Know thy enemy, its desperate for your attention, do more than just say No, ACT IN OPPOSITION TO SIN, dismantle it’s traps, give hand to all those you can who are also in the process of recovering from this evil which effects us all. Together, we will overcome this abomination, we will do it because we all so loved our world, that we would never sit by and just let it rot away. Stand together.
Oh, I see the part that annoyed some of the people in the comments. He pointed out that rebellion is only step one of the devils plan. Followed by taking control and being evil to people.
What is interesting, as we think about big movie hits, how there has been a more common theme of the "bad boy", the rule breaker, the rebel being the hero. And of course, there are plenty of examples of movie hero's being on the side of the rule of law, there are smash hits like Pirates of the Caribbean where the pirate Jack Sparrow, rule breaker, thumbing his nose at all authority, is the clear favorite. Just one of many steps breaking down in childrens minds that the being "bad" is fun and exciting. Growing up in the 70's the theme "sex, drugs and rock and roll" was practically the anthem of American teenagers.
I live in a small College town. Saw a girl walking up my street wearing devil-horns. They weren't clip-ons, they were expertly fixed to her forehead.( just last week, I might add/ no Halloween) I see these kind of things a lot around here. Being "normalized" now.
People its best time to support creative society !!!
The problem is fake Christians, they say the words "I believe" but their actions do not manifest this statement. They know the scripture, know about God, but do not know God... Keep seeking 🙏
Yes, as Jonathan once put it: it is the disjunction between heaven and earth, in other words between meaning and a fact. The ultimate example of it are pharisees in the times of Jesus.
thats a problem for sure
Jesus is freedom
What Satanism looks like in modern society is what it looks like in every age - except with gadgets - because man has not changed. Jesus said to Peter "Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art an offence unto me: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but those that be of men." Peter said to Jesus, with the best intentions, after hearing Jesus first mention his coming passion, that his enterprise will be successful, that he won't experience that suffering! In Peter's mind he was trying to be encouraging but Jesus could see that he was encouraging Jesus not to succeed but to imitate his own desire for success. The very act of mimicking the desires of other men is a satanic act. It is a usurping act aimed at God's place and power and even if it is small and seemingly of good intentions it is a seed for more mindless imitation of desire that can multiply down the road. Whether it is the desire of Peter or Mr Pageau or Mr Jordan Peterson or the goofy modern satanist down the road, mimicking any of their desires are all acts of satanic practice. To think that the satanic only reveals itself through the behaviour of our current goofy degenerates would be a folly of pride in my estimation.
Mr Pageau stresses above that satanists identify themselves as God, which I understood as 'prime movers', or 'self actuating', their will and power they believe comes from within themselves, they are independent beings, so to speak. Funnily enough this is also the perspective of romantic literature (read Ayn Rand protagonists) which Mr J Peterson likes to promulgate (romanticism that is, not Rand) in the form of 'myths' and 'legends' - "Go slay your dragon!". The perspectives are similar in that they reject the third party to all human endeavours, the model for ones behaviour (for the Christian the model is Jesus, or God). Myths and legends, like satanism, reject the Other in favour of a simpler equation - Subject/Object - which is a lie. There is only the Object and my desire for it the romantics insist. The truth, as shown in the Bible, or in the great novels (Dostoyevsky, Proust, Shakespeare, etc), is that the subject's desire comes from someone else. This truth of tripartite existence for humans must be acknowledged in order to understand and move on beyond our current dilemmas. I only mention this here to clarify that Pageau's definition for satanist given above is not clear, at least to me, and also to illuminate the lie of romantic self actualisation as I have come to understand it.
Thanks for writing that. Yes, the gnostic fallacy of being a Neo of the matrix. We are small and weak, we ONLY come to the Father through his Son Jesus - not by our efforts; outside our surrender. For it shows the miracle of the Almighty. If it were something we could do through works, then it would not show testimony to the Living Glory of the One True God
I have never in 20 years of delving into this subject heard it explained like that. This is extremely illuminating. How did you come to this remarkable conclusion? If you could point me in the right direction, I’d love to know more
10/10 insightful well written reply.
I'm going to re-read this a couple of times. I appreciate you helping me to further my understanding of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ ❤️☦️
Very well said 🎯!
Excellent comment ❤❤❤
3:59
_”If I can subjugate my desires to something better, then even those desires will be more fulfilled”_
The path of Satan is to become a spiritual wendigo. The more you consume, the bigger your stomach gets, in such a disproportionate way that eating only makes you hungrier, in an infinite loop.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe writing of Faust, is very much the endless hunger you speak of.
Totally agree with this: the Arnie documentary on Netflix is a perfect example of a consuming ego 🔥
Can you, please, tell who you were quoting? I very much would like to know. Thank you.
@@bernadettesalkowska5894 im pretty sure the guy in the video at or around 3 59 in the video. hope that helps. its his view on the take of Satanism.
@@lawfulandlegal Thank you very much.
Very insightful. Satanism is a thing that says a lot about human nature, an archetype.
Could you explain to the audience about what happened to the Cathars and the Gnostics?
They went away. The end.
@@BastardX13 such a friendly way to say they were massacred by the catholic church
Mark Passio has the best info on the Dark Occult and Satanism.
Jesus- save this culture
There is no culture. It's not going to happen. That is why Orthodoxy never entered the modern world.
He will when we all allow Him to personally save us
He can't save us if we reject him, like our poisoned modern culture tries to encourage. We must love him and accept him as the messiah that he is. You must truly believe that in your heart.
The culture belongs to Satan already. You shouldn’t want to be part of it.
Remember John 15: 18-20 “If the world hates you, know that it has hated me before it hated you. [19] If you were of the world, the world would love its own; but because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you.”
This culture is doomed, we have to go back to Orthodoxy, that’s the culture God gave us.
Christianity is Obedience to God's cause.
Satanism is rebellion without a cause.
CORRECTION: Christianity is obedience to God's cause. Satanism is obedience to Satan's cause.
Nah it’s just mythology, none of it real, u guys just can’t cope with death so u pretend there is an after life.
Maybe not explicitly Satan but one's own cause. Like the snake tales Eve YOU will be like God.
@AbyssicBlackMetal666 Maybe not atheistic Satanists, but theistic Satanists absolutely worship the Biblical Satan and denounce Biblical God.
“My kingdom is not of this world”
Very well explained sir.
Western culture has strayed too far from Christianity and is suffering for it. We need a return to Christianity.
Good explanation. Makes it more clear.
Christianity is beautiful
@FreedomPact Kuddos to Joseph, I learned nothing about your host because did the key action of simply Listening to what was being said, I don’t think I ever saw his face, i never heard an interruption, sometimes the best thing we can do, especially when drinking from a fountain of truth, the best we can do is just be quiet, listen, observe, take it in. Good job, Great guest and a great topic that needs to be spoken about. It’s so blatant, one method used death to rule, the oppressed opposition Creates because it LOVES. Understand this fundamental TEST, this is a PASS or FAIL test for humanity. For all time it turns out. Right now. ❤
Like father Spyridon says the "Road to Jesus or the world of christianity is full of thorns" the road outside through comfort or being sainter than saints (pride and arrogance) is the path of evil.
3:30 - 7:15 is a fantastic description 🤯
Yes. Satan thought he was better than God and was not subject to God’s will. Look how we now celebrate a Pride month. Satan must be very happy.
Realizing how much the illuminati et al PUSH the new age, but have bashed mocked and scoffed Christianity is what brought me to Christ.
In context "Do as thou wilt shall be the whole of the law" doesn't mean what it appears to. In Crowley's work your "will" is your purpose, what you are meant to do.
LeVey and others are using the literal means and Crowley's many failings to justify their acts.
smart guy .. great explanation
God gave me gracious free will, i chose that free will to follow, love, fear and worship that provider of that free will, Almighty God is real and all powerfull and Jesus is King and saviour, Satan rules the hearts of those who deny Almighty God, Thats why are we are in so much shit.
I think there are like two separate beliefs that "I am God". Yes I can agree on satanic one "Do what thy will", but from my feeling and understanding "I am God" (part of him).
God is everything, and you accept his blessing by leaving your ego. But it's ego indulging to believe that you are the God.
Tried to sum that up in short terms.
Satan operates through the physical world and symbols. You don't praise him by praying to him, you praise him by praying attention to his realm, his symbols. You dont have to worship Satan to worship Satan and he prefers the covertness.
How about a balance of contending with the universe and giving it what it desires from us. “Nature musnt win but she also musnt lose” - Jung
The universe isn't alive, it has no desires.
Jung 😂
Yeah he gets on my nerves.@@TheLincolnrailsplitt
@@loulasher nature is the objective psyche and evolution runs through it. Has goals. Can’t just repress every instinct and expect to have control of your being
@@vincentorozco9020 If you really want to define nature as "the objective psyche" you should be willing to explain what that is and how you came to that conclusion. I don't think it's real. I have no reason to accept that definition, and have no idea: 1) what "the" "objective" "psyche" means, 2) why it is singular, 3) what's objective about it, or 4) what psyche refers to outside of the narrow field of psychology. I just don't think you're priotizing making sense in any of that.
Why do these types always misunderstand Crowley's Law of Thelema? It has nothing to do with imposing your will on others and, in fact, expressly forbids it. Everyone has the right to Do Their Will and no one has the right to interfere unless that Will is to control others. Its not just a matter of doing your own Will but of respecting the Will of everyone else. A Thelemite cannot casually murder someone, as so many seem to think, unless they can find someone whose Will it is to be murdered by them. If a child expresses a desire to be an Artist its parents cannot force it into another occupation. If a child wishes to be an accountant or a truck driver they are left to follow that goal. The core idea is that if everyone was free to live that they chose, to Do Their Will, the world would be a happier, more balanced place. Crowley was a complex character and if he were to knock on my door I'd pretend to be not at home but this idea is not entirely without merit.
oh they understand, you don't.
You didn't think it through properly or you can't because you lack the value framework necessary.
It's the same with communists and marxists, you can only think it's a good idea if you didn't really understand it or if you're morally lacking. (with very few notable exceptions on the marxist side)
😂 I understand what your saying. The end was funny, thank you. I just think based on the fact that Crowley claims that he was called by Horus the son of Osiris to bring back the golden age is directly against Christ, who is God, which is Jesus of Nazareth. The only Will that is worth anything is the Fathers will. The reason why you can track back his ideas is because in his biography (I forget the specifics) he simply left God and was eager to serve his new master. That implies to me that he was well aware of what it meant to use your own will to “help” the world by not controlling. His own will and others like minded even disturbed Mussolini himself, who kicked him out of Italy. Anyways that my opinion, God bless you
2:14 You can create a play within a play. This is popular trick: Itchy & Scratchy, Hamlet...
Anything Anti-Christ is of the self or egos desire to get to heaven without the way, the truth and the Life of the creator Father Gods will in our lives..anything you believe yourself to be like I heal, I create, I Love, I manifest myself..Your self is nothing without Christ..this is the source of our suffering to believe the self can do SELF without the Father, the Son the Holy Ghost who Created you to Glorify him as his highest being in all of Creation..
Ok. I found it my duty to like this video for two reasons: it’s beautiful, and two bring the amount of likes to 667. Whoa! Nice one, God.
What is the Devil doing?
The Devil is seeking worship based on doctrinal lies and corruptions that sound religious, pious, and spiritual, but are contrary to the righteousness of God which is by faith in the gospel of the grace of God (Gal 1:8-9, 2 Cor 11:3-4).
He sits in church every Sunday, he reads the Bible (before he twists it), he does charity work. People love him because he is amiable.
They think he is God and that their god is better than the God of judgment that worries so much about religious differences and doctrines.
They have not made a god from their imaginations. Their god is real. He exists. He has power. He intervenes in the world. He is a bearer of light and minister of righteousness.
They are right. They are worshiping someone real, but he is not the true God.
Their false god is not imaginary because they have made the Devil out to be god (John 8:44), and believed a lie that the Devil does not exist.
Please pray for me if so led thank you
Right on
This is just one guy's opinion. Listen to people who have had NDE's. Once you hear enough of them you hear basically the same story. They actually met God when they died. Love and acceptance of ourselves and others is what God wants from us. Not more dogma and rules from other humans. This guy is talking dogmatically.
4:40 "Do thy will is the first of the law." You screwing that up so bad made me laugh.
Mr Pageau, you perfectly describe the world we have to live in... Homo Deus, as the World Economic Forum says (Harari's book)
""Questioning is bad." No its not- we need to constantly question- there's nothing wrong with critical thinking- doesn't matter if its a promulgation from the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith or a Satanic Bible verse.
Satanists say they dont believe in the devil or god its an archetype they use
They follow the father of lies, so they do the same, they say they don't follow anything just to gain more sympathy.
@@LionMob we have to remember that too
Who cares what they say? We can see what they do. And its not flattering.
@@wilder11 well for one a person who is interested in them would care what they say. 2 a person studying them they would by intention care about what they say. Alot of them probably live a peaceful life and are intitled to. Like atheism alot of those ppl i would take before reljgious pll. Probably before you. Your exactly the problem with the world the type that would go to war in a second
He say's...with a hex... black cube next to his heart 'pfft'
Satan has to become the hero, the saviour. the underdog who saves those who just want freedom to be themselves, instead of what is right and good for them.
In a world beyond time I wonder if divinity has already wandered down these paths in order to become Love, right and good. In a world beyond time I wonder if it is we, the divine within us, that is somehow doing the timeless wandering, the divine exploration necessary to determine what is right and good...
An interesting thought, but God has already told us that everything he says and makes is good before it is/was corrupted by Sin. God as our creator omnipresent and outside of time can see better than we can what's best for us. He is our light in the darkness. Rebellion happened because of lack of faith in that fact.@@peterfrance702
@@peterfrance702how are you defining divine? Is it a creator? Since the video is about satanism in the world, satan in this or any reasonable context is both not the creator and not serving the creator's intentions but instead either serving it's own or telling others to serve their own desires which then are be definition not the Creator's. The big distinction is between creatures in creation and the Creator outside creation. Once we see ourselves as created, we can easily see we may try to serve the end our Creator created for us, or rebel against that purpose and pursue our own ends. Just as the phrase "art for art's sake" is a lie, since art is meant to communicate something, me for my sake is a lie. We shouldn't pursue our own pleasures as if they are our purpose no matter how much our senses tell us we enjoy it because we were created for a purpose and we are not our own purpose.
@@loulasher I cannot define 'God' or 'divine' or 'source', or 'creator' etc. I use the terms more or synonymously to point to something beyond definition but that includes ALL. Satan is not the creator just as I am not the creator, but both I and Satan are creations of the divine. The suggestion that the creator is somehow outside creation is a notion that does not sit comfortably with me.
A world without good and bad would be banal to the point of being meaningless would it not? Somehow through suffering there is spiritual or emotional growth.
I probably haven't answered your question and we don't seem to even be on the same page... but there you have it.
@@peterfrance702 I want to talk about 3 of your sentences there.
"The suggestion that the creator is somehow outside creation is a notion that does not sit comfortably with me." A creator outside creation seems to me to be the only kind of creator there can be. Mozart was not in any of his compositions, Stradivarius was not a violin, and no United Auto Worker comes with the car you buy. The UAW member can enter and exit the car, but the UAW member is not "within" the car. Even when in a car, the UAW member is in the air within the car, on but not of the seats. Creation is made up of "creatures" who at best can rearrange things already created. This doesn't exclude the creator from entering and acting within creation in some manner, but it doesn't change that when we 'create' we are refashioning more than creating.
"A world without good and bad would be banal to the point of being meaningless would it not?" How would either of us know? I enjoyed my time in college, I enjoy practicing guitar and chess and all sorts of things. There's no bad in those things, and there more to learn and explore in all of them the more I delve into them. They are inexhaustible and good, no harm comes from studying or working on any of them. A rollercoaster is fun, safe generally, and not bad even though the thrill of danger is the fun. It's not bad even though it feels like a care-free manner of hurling towards a violent death. No actual Freddy Kruger is needed to make it less banal. "Bad" need not apply for any gig.
"Somehow through suffering there is spiritual or emotional growth." Learning from our mistakes is what this sounds like. But we can learn other ways too. Suffering we go through is often not just our own suffering directly but realizing when we may have harmed others. For me those are worse than stupid things I did to myself. I can laugh about stupid things I did to myself.
I once moved a terracotta planter for a friend while we were trying to get at an ant colony in his yard. I was swarmed by bees and stung 5 times before I knew what was going on. I was stung maybe 12 times before I could actually act on that knowing. My friend was spraying me down with garden hose to get the bees off me. I had so many beestings, they were stacked 3 high in some places. I laughed for maybe a half hour or more. But I've done things and let people down in ways I could never laugh about.
There's this idea of a "rightly formed mind" and it ties into the religious, well Christian or Catholic, idea of the "Logos". Logos is often translated as the Word, but it implies more the ordering of things or the grammar of reality. A rightly formed mind would have mastery over the senses that gives it information, and mastery over the range of information it gains through any means. It's how, for my own example, I very quickly "got" equilibrium in chemical reactions in school after having already learned aout equilibrium in stream orders in geomorphology even though the latter is much more abstract and the 2 concepts are not directly related at all. We pick up patterns and see if we can makes sense of things based on patterns we've already understood. Learning isn't all trial and error, mess up and make up and learn from it, because we have minds that can multiply what we learn from experiences.
We may or may not be on the same page, but if we're honestly pursuing truth and trying to match our behaviors to what is true we will probably end up on the same page or at least the same set of books. I mean I can study music and never look at Fux's counterpoint but it is in that set of books I can study.
Satanism is pure and simple narcissism. The devil was a cherub angel and therefore one of the highest ranking. He fell from grace due to narcissism. He was unable able to love God wholly and others as himself, a violation of what Christ calls the greatest commandments, Mk12:29 "What are the greatest commandments."
Therefore, his followers, if you can call them that, since they're narcissists, would be in his image and speaking his language, lies.
There’s going to be an awful lot forced to get in line to get into hell then after this epoch as those who positively cherish the Christ consciousness rise higher and leave them behind to their fate
But the jump from metal using "satanic" directions to modern pop artists (that often dont overtly sing about similar themes either) feels like a more nefarious and calculated action which is coming from above...I mean the metal bands was using this in many ways by themselves for a public that saught after it....These modern pop stars dont have that audience (more like unexpecting victimes one could call them) and dont have "it" intertwined in its art naturally from the start.
they were still in show business and if the devil likes what you do, well...
i dont think all the dark culture going on is not due to satanism, but due to sabbateanism / Frankism... redemption through Sin... fro them the messiah will come when everyone is virtuous or when everyone is sinner... so the later is a easier solution than the former...
Would Jesus would have approved of communism?
Considering what communism is? No, duh.
No, communism is anti God and anti Catholic/Christian. Wherever it is instituted, communism outlaws freedom of religion and all other forms of freedom as well including freedom of thought.
Good question. Certainly not in a marxist way, but maybe in the way people like the amish are practicing it.
Maybe communist adjacent but yes it’s a discussion to be had
Jesus was apolitical His kingdom is not of this world. He was for helping other but also personal accountability.
Mark 12:17: New International Version, "Then Jesus said to them, “Give back to Caesar what is Caesar’s and to God what is God’s.” And they were amazed at him."
1. Jonathan states he receives goodness from heaven. Er, Jesus says: "Give ... to God what is God's." So think he's got the taking and receiving the wrong way around.
2. "Give back to Caesar what is Caesar's" So if Satan does take over, shouldn't Christians just give in to them?
3. If Christians are going to fight this 'new Satanism', isn't that an act of rebellion and therefore an act of Satan - er, in accordance to Jonathan?
In summary - biblical Satanism, not this 'freedom/rebellion' recent man made ideology which stems from 'Paradise Lost', Milton, is getting human beings to turn away from God.
As Jesus says: Matthew 6:6, New International Version, "But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you." So a) You give your prayer to God. b) You do it in secret - why? c) Because your relationship with God is personal. It's just you and God. No war, no rebellion, just you freely giving to God.
You can also read the story of Job in the Bible - where Satan brings great suffering to Job to... To do what... Rebel? Or turn away from God? So the one place in the bible where Satan actually appears and somehow all he wants to do is get Job to turn away from God, not start a war or rebel or anything else...
Think poor old Jonathan is getting lost in modern day interpretations. Think he needs to read the bible again so he can get his relationship with God back on track.
Self absorbed and selfish people that need to repent and humble themselves.
To join satanism, Judaism or islam only required to take oath to deny jesus as messiah.
looks like the letter J
You hit on some key concept here. I was going to share the video with my daughter, but then you started talking about castration, and I thought better of it. Pity.
people afraid of the devil have never been given or shown the tools to defeat them. the christian faith and all religion has failed you
"They want power"?
They already HAVE POWER. Are you blind? They own every major brand of everything.
You people need to understand something... it was never "satan vs. God". Satan wanted power, God gave him a kingdom. That simple. God is how things work. Satan is things working in ways you may or may not like.
Was "doubting Thomas" a Satanist?
Humility vs pride. Same old story.
Absolutely x
Genesis 3:3
Yup...
On the one hand, you’re talking about, people wanna control other people as if that’s a bad thing, and then the other hand you talking about people not being able to choose their own pronouns.
It seems to me that there are thousands of different examples, you could’ve chosen the fact that you choose pronouns shows that you are basically embedding your own political biases into your interpretation.
Jesus was a bit of a Satanist in his own era if you think about it, he rebelled against the religious authority of his time, suggested that he himself was God. He ticked the boxes there.
You know nothing about Jesus Christ nor Satan, be quiet.
That's cute.
But you're missing the part where he died for the sins of the world. Where he allowed himself to be tortured, maimed and humiliated to prove his point.
No matter how much you try, rebellion itself is not a Satanic trait. This is the maneuver of a narcissist, to equate his sins with good examples, so that his depravity can be obscured. Rebellion for rebellion's sake, for pride's sake, THAT is satanic.
But standing up to wrongdoing and untruth? There's nothing satanic about that. Not even remotely. What truth was Satan standing for when he rebelled against God?
@@wilder11 There's definitely some common ground between the philosophy of the (modern version of) Satanism and the Christian depiction of Jesus Christ to be had there. Not that I believe Jesus ever literally existed in any physical historical sense, there's no contemporary evidence for that. There was however an early heretical sect of actual Christians who would have completely agreed with me on that one, which is quite interesting.
'Docetism, (from Greek dokein, “to seem”), Christian heresy and one of the earliest Christian sectarian doctrines, affirming that Christ did not have a real or natural body during his life on earth but only an apparent or phantom one.'
I would take what they believed to be something like though he didn't exist in any Earthly corporeal sense he was still real in some mystical experience for the people who in some way personally encountered God in a human form. It could have been the equivalent of a Native American 'vision quest' by people who had attained some greater level of spiritual attainment. The Roman Empire had a lot of these Mystery Cults such as Mithraism, Osiris-Dionysus and the Greek Zalmoxis. Jesus may have been the Jewish equivalent of those Greek and Roman/Greek Mystery cults as his story and teachings follow a very similar pattern or template.
As for Satan himself and the nature of his rebellion against God you could give the Yazhidi makeover to make something a bit more spiritually inspiring. To give you gist of that idea with that.
'Furthermore, the Yazidi story regarding Tawûsê Melek's rise to favor with God is almost identical to the story of the jinn Iblis in Islam, except that Yazidis revere Tawûsê Melek for refusing to submit to Adam, while Muslims believe that Iblis' refusal to submit caused him to fall out of Grace with God, and to later become Satan himself.
Tawûsê Melek is often identified by Muslims and Christians with Shaitan (Satan). Yazidis, however, believe Tawûsê Melek is not a source of evil or wickedness. They consider him to be the leader of the archangels, not a fallen angel. They are forbidden from speaking the name Shaitan. They also hold that the source of evil is in the heart and spirit of humans themselves, not in Tawûsê Melek.
You can keep him as the 'god of this world' but the world as a creation of God is 'very good' and a good God wouldn't really put an evil entity to rule over and torment us no good reason. The evil in the world you can put squarely on humans and their actions of their own freedom of will instead. Satan can represent the oneness of nature and the joy of life which can be seen as a gift rather than an ordeal or a punishment before 'going somewhere better'.
'Another important facet of the Yezidi faith is their belief in the oneness with nature. They worship the Sun God , three to five times each day. When Yezidis pray they face the sun. The Sun represents the source of energy or ultimate truth. It is sacred and seen as the emanation of God.'
You can give the version of Satan snake in the book of Genesis the Gnostic spin where the fall of Adam and Eve was the gift of knowledge and freewill. Separation from God to become a self determined individual being made in Gods mental image came with a heavy price of death but you can/should still see it as a gift. Jesus comes along later as the gift of the knowledge or 'Gnosis' of God and you can attain Enlightenment/Salvation through Christ but you still have your own individual free will that is separate from God that Satan originally gave us as humans, very different to other animals that lack this higher awareness of self. There's Yin Yang kind of mystical duality to that. So this could definitely work as a really good fusion IMO, it does have some historical precedent and equivalents.
Satanists just love to take the piss. They are trolling people who are very easily trolled.
Who was jesus if not a rebel?
In modern society, it looks like socialism.
Satanism is the belief that THIS WORLD is the ultimate reality, but this is a falsehood. This is a prison.
Ca în filmul cu Denzel Fallen, când Satana se plimba și poseda de la unul la altul
East vs West
You can't say that Satan is right when they are praying on and killing innocent children evil is the deceiver Jesus Christ is Lord
This is surprisingly excellent Jonathan. Now, if only you could remove the pagan idolatry from the rest of your catholic, symbolic explanations; from your exegesis of the gospel - and more ….
It's attitudes like this that drive people away from Christianity
@@adrianmasters250 So you'd prefer people to belong to a religion whose leaders have shown themselves to be in wilful disagreement with the founder of their church (Jesus Christ) for the best part of 1800 years?
I'd say that you need to find out just what you're talking about before saying it.
Where are all the missing people??
Liberty is the spirit of Satan. we are here now
Dudes got a picture of a dragon on his wall 🙄. It looks like something you would find on a royals heraldry.
I think its a wyvern
So?
Funny that Satanism, demons, devils and the biblical Gods are the same little golden book,
You spin me right round baby right round
Like a record baby round round round round
As part of God I offer you the Truth
Now that’s there’s been time for you to discredit it with your misperceptions.
Q: How do we know if God is real?
(without trying to discredit your faith in God)
A: Because all the manipulative religions that exist as written words (and dates) against the actual God (Human label) would have had to be initial advertisements of his work, at the date that they were re-scripted.
Are you able to make the ultimate sacrifice (of sorts) and learn the bibles (religions) intended disposition of God?
Religions (relative) bibles etc are the written forms of the broadcasted Rf cycles of The Giza Pyramids, their Messiahs are praised on the same day as the Pyramid of Giza’s (actual positional) alignment to the North Star (the 25th Dec Roman calendar) and also the Saturn and Winter solstice celebrations, their forms are also the localised cycles of Saturnia (Satan to some) which could only be understood then as a recurring argument between Nature, it was presented then as Light vs Darkness, The Pyramids North alignment is also Earths relative speed of light (299,792,458 m/s)
It’s important to understand that the intellectual capacity of Mankind in its relative time, is what enabled the repositioning of the written word (and dates) that’s been purposefully misused to form submissive masses (environments) of Governed compliance that are restricted by their physical and spiritual states,
For example Mesopotamian calendar years consisted of 360 days based off the actual Solar lunar cycles, December 25th the darkness day of the year was actually the 21st to the 22nd,
New year was actually at Easter similar to orthodox Christian dates and celebrated Life and the Divine King (also the summer solstice aligned to Orion/The Hunter).
Ask yourself, If Charles Manson led a brainwashing cult, then what was it that Charles Windsor’s line bought to you?
King James versions and behaviours? Catholicism through religious submissions to Roman dates and fake Pyramid religions of cycled failure ? Etc
It should also be obvious that for the written word to be delivered as enslavement to its mass, the re-scripting of those definitive events, would have had to have been written cleverly to be a usable (but false) cohesion about acts carried out by human vessels of God.
The Pyramids were built in opposition of God (by man) and that’s why you have unknowingly worshipped the darkness and submitted to Evils Governance.
And now ask yourself do you believe God is worthy of The Truth?
Jas THAT bloodline
One God, get it right
Judaism
As Satanisim goes mainstream, it loses it's edginess & outrage effect. Frankly, I'm already bored with it.
Mid-roll ads at 1:15seconds = dislike.
I am underwhelmed by his inability to speak. I do believe he may cling to wisdom he does not understand nor can communicate. I think what he is trying to say is that there is a spiritual war and it is ratcheting up.
Watching intellectuals fumble around this content is amusing. Darth Vader costumes are still in the same game. Go within or go without!
I think it's much more amusing to watch satanists get butthurt in the comments.
Most of them are insecure narcissists after all so it feels very much like a reddit thread.
Are we sure that this is not just an extension of A mixture between paganism and a nostalgic way of Christianity rovescated? If Christianity how all other religions is mixed culturally with pagan practices and ideals, this way or rovescate the characters is really infant. People's that says I'm Agnostic but Satan is my God xd stuff like that, is just still Christianity inverted and mixed with a lot of other stuff, Hermtism, Gnosticism etc etc How Crowley have do it in his times. Antrophosophy,for example, looks very clear about that. Anyway according to this man, Satan is More like a Fidel Castro character than A Che' Guevara, xd.
Sauron does not share power
It's not satanism. It's luciferin.
Lucifer lost that name when he rebelled and got kicked out of heaven. That was his angelic name.
Does anyone actually have any sense? Do you TRULY know where you are? I saw things I can’t unsee and I think it’s true that ignorance is bliss, the truth is much darker than people are prepared for. No matter what you believe if you don’t wake up you will cry for eternity wishing you did
Even the great Saints question. Even Christ questioned. To say you are satanic to question, is really questionable!
Apparently Crowley said do what thou wilt without infringing on the will of others.
No Crowley said 'do as thou wilt'. Wiccans added 'but harm thee none' to make it more palatable.
Wiccans basically tried to impose ethics onto religions and Gods that don't really follow those ethics. So they will say for example that if a witch was to curse someone Karma will get them or the threefold law. ACTUAL pagans would just place the curse without worrying about it further. It's still practiced authentically in Africa and India, nobody there is worrying about karma when placing curses or love potions. Crowley was an actual Satanist, not just an edgelord.
I always think of him dying in his bedsit in Hastings.
Christianity doen't teach the sublimation of desires for better pleasures later...it's the labeling of said desires as evil and sinful and morally corrupt, yay even immoral and unclean...and that only through abstinence and submition to God/Jesus/Allah will one be saved from God's" Justice...burning them unsaved from their Sins eternally. Ugh.
So basicly we are fu@ked.
unless
Satan and individuation?
Want power....so the same as any religion in history lol
The part that I'm not getting is... Why is Satanism (as Pageau describes it) worse than Christianity? "Satan is a rebel who wants to control". Well, God already does this. So why is God good and Satan bad - because he's more powerful? Might makes right?
Because God is actually the maker. It is truthful thing to worship and revere your creator and source of all things.
Satan is just a created entity like you and me, though of vastly greater potency. His claim is based on lies. He is not the creator nor can he ever overthrow God. It is madness that will lead into utter ruination.
God is love. Satan hates God's creation - humans - is one way of looking at it.
God doesnt want to control. Who said that? He literally gave us free will. You choose to be by his side or not. The consequences that come from separating yourself from your creator is not a punishment from him. It's a inevitable reaction when you go down a different path. People love to blame God when they start doing dumb or evil things only to realize that there are rules to this realm. And everything you do or dont do have consequences.
@@matiasluukkanen7718 why should the maker be worshipped though? If I decide to make an ant farm and expect the ants to worship me, isn't that kinda pathetic?
"Satan's claim is based on lies" - which lies? God lied to Adam and Eve, the serpent told the truth. (And let's not open the Lilith can of worms.)
@@MegaMerdeux We don't have free will. And even if we did, holding a fiery brimstone gun to someone's head and telling them to worship you isn't what I call free - sounds more like slavery.
I agree we shouldn't blame God for our mistakes (it'd be pretty hypocritical for an atheist to do that) but that's a separate issue.
Why are you SOOOOOOOOOOOOO wrong.
sounds like elon musk
If you are going to try to malign someone elses beliefs at least know what you are talking about. So much misinformation
As a life long heavy metal listener I feel more satanism in hip hop, rap,rnb pop is way more worse and blatant
you might be in denial but it is true the focus has shifted
How has it become construed that God incarnated came and preached a radical, symbolically veiled message that the same old power dynamics can continue doing their thing forever until he arbitrarily decides to come back and blow it all up?
How are you understanding “old power dynamics” and “their thing forever” ?
@@gmk2222 That the world still rests on hierarchical power and the need to dominate others to secure privileges. It is not so in the Kingdom of God.
@@alephmale3171 How can the kingdom of God be a kingdom without hierarchy? Wouldn't that be more like "The Peoples United Republic of God"?
The same old power dynamics are not meant to keep doing their thing. We were slaves to Sin (the power that controlled the world) and that power dynamic was shattered utterly.
@@billbadson7598 How? Don’t you sin?
Jesus was a rebel
Depends on what you mean. Jesus was completely obedient to God, “ But Thy will be done, not mine.” Jesus was the new Adam and where Adam disobeyed, Jesus (and Mary), obeyed.
But from the perspective of the Pharisees, yes, perhaps. Jesus obeyed the intent of the law and not the letter, which enraged the Pharisees. Jesus also said, “Render unto Caesar, what is due Caesar and to God what is due God.” So, he was not about revolution or rebelling for the sake of rebelling. That would the territory of the enemy.
he rebelled against the rebels
To society not to God
Satanism is a "coexist" bumper sticker.
What is built right into Christianity? Human sacrifice.
No. It's God sacrificing Himself paying the punishment we do not merit to pay ourselves.
so many butthurt satanists in the comments
Did you guys think that satan and obvious God really exist?
