[font="Arial Black"]i have a pretty crazy one i guess. when i tell people they look down on my then rather be happy that i'm for christ now. lets see what you do?

when i was 14 i had this really abusive bf(physically and emotionally) and he didn't love me but i refused to believe it. he would call me ugly and cheat on me to my face. i was really mad and wanted so desperately to be called beautiful so i posted suggestive pictures of me on a website and had hundreds of creepy men hoop and haller at me. i hated it and loved it at the same time. my mind was full of lust and i was losing all morals. but i still didn't get my bf to love me at all. i was also angry at Christ for selfish reasons, that my bf didn't love. later my bf broke up with me after trying to rape me. i still couldn't stop loving him and when i was 15 i turned to Satan for help, knowing he would help. i didn't know it came with a price. i joined a very goth website and got very involved in a cult of the devil. i cut myself more then i did before. i was changing rapidly and was becoming very dark. i told everyone who knew me i was fine and that the clothes and make-up i was wearing was "just my style". everyone believed me and never saw through my mask.
i had sevrel demon encounters and i was terrified and intrigued everytime they came. it wasn't till i was in my bathroom in the dark with a candle lit i realized something was wrong with me. i said in evil words that didn't seam to be mine- i put my hands toward the candle and said "what can you do for me, now?" i quickly snapped out of it and blew out the candle and started tearing up.
my mom was making me go to a bible study at the time, and that week my leader started talking about the devil and i instantly felt a stabbing pain in my chest. i screamed and started bawling and everyone laid their hands on me and prayed. my two best friends couldn't breath and everyone else felt something to. it was crazy! they prayed over me for 2 hours and i finally started calming down.
from there on i devoted myself to Christ knowing he would love me more then anyone in this world.[/font]
[color="Red"][font="Arial Black"]i hate you, i hate you, i hate you. so i guess that means i love you with every beat of my heart <3[/font][/color]

Whoa, that's some testimony!

wow. Thank God that He placed people in your path to pull you out of the grip of Satan. Messing with the occult is never a good thing and it sounds like you were headed for something really destructive!

Well, I am also sorry that people have looked down on you... Some people like to act as though they have never sinned, or that their sin isn't a "bad" as yours. The truth is that we have ALL sinned and come short of the glory of God.

Welcome!

Why look down at you when they should look up at your for inspiration?

Glad you made it out ^^

Holy crap mate, praise be to God! You're an awesome witness to his majesty and power. And a great kick up the butt to us believers who sometimes take God's grace for granted.
So proud of you mate.
God Bless!
I'll be praying for you.

That's a rather frightening testimony there. Praise God that he got you out of that. Thank you for sharing this with us!

P.S. From what vantage point can any saved sinner look down upon the testimony of another?

Wow.

I was raised in a Christian home, asked Jesus into my life at a very young age (whether or not I was really capable of understanding what I was really asking is questionable though) and recently rededicated my life to Him. I've been raised in a church atmosphere like all my life and haven't dabbled in the occult so to hear a story like yours is both terrifying and inspirational. I am not too sheltered but I don't tend to cross the "lines" that have been set so I don't have experience with demons, etc. myself, but I am very interested in the accounts of them because so many people claim that this world is merely physical and will tell you "It's superstition" or "People made that up to futher their Christian cause". I have an evolutionist friend who swears that demons do not exist; I have no personal experience with them but I am assured that they can and do take hold of humans.

Like others said, you are now an incredible witness for Christ. You and those around you have experienced something very physical. I want to encourage you to get out there and spread your testimony as much as you possibly can, because for people who don't believe in God and believe that they are merely highly evolved mammals with no spiritual self, the eyewitness testimony of the existance of some kind of spirit, whether good or evil, could be a wakeup call that there really is more to this world than we can sense all the time.

I'm so glad that you found Christ and can begin a new life in Him. : )
I hope you will one day find a boyfriend who loves and cherishes you as the valuable person you are!
