Memoirs of Madness

Just spitballing here, but you internalized a very spiritually abusive family’s values when you identified as the black sheep to the point of considering yourself someone people think is Satan. The way to avoid being so suggestible is to know the truth. Learn so much about their own religion that you can correct them and lead them back to it— or away from it, if you deem it to still be as horrible as what they taught you. If they are receptive (and alive), of course.

It’s very interesting that you had no memory of how you got there. I wonder who drove that car when you were “gone”?

You go from praying for guidance, to being Lucifer. We know that the passage and your parents were fresh in your mind. Let’s revisit this part:

Since we already saw that the message was not from God—the abortion statement is evil, for one—and you noted a reread of a passage corrected one misunderstanding about Michael— …Can you see how knowing the truth about what the Bible actually says may have served as a preventative against your off-roading adventure?

Hold every “imagined vision” captive …

“We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.”

2 Corinthians 10:5

You didn’t wanna be the antichrist—is that still true after you understand what it means?I’m presuming yes. God is not going to ask you to do something you do not want to do that is evil.

For example, in the case of Pharaoh and Judas, he merely confirmed their wills. Just as he does when he allows our evil choices because he will not violate consent.

I’m not going to reference anything anymore at this point (this morning, at least). Read the entire Bible 500 bajillion times or until you understand it and all the other people’s (at least 3 major ones) commentaries.

I’m ready for more story :slight_smile:
