No you're confusing me with someone else completely.

Don't know anything about a story about a pastors teen daughter although that sounds like a terrible story.

Quoted:
I'll be the first. You're talking about Jesus and Satan but say this isn't religious? You need a therapist.

Quoted:
I thought this was going to be a Kamala thread....but seriously, i'm glad to hear you are saved.  Born twice, die once.  Born one, die twice.  Jesus Christ is Lord and Savior.

Cliff notes
Wake up in my bed and can only move my eyes, thinking to myself what the fuck. Feel a weight pressing on my whole body
Dark figure glides into my room right next to my head
Absolute feeling of dread and misery
Can’t scream can’t move
Call on Jesus to help me in my thoughts
In an instant everything is back to normal.

I didn’t consider myself a “religious” person and was living pretty recklessly at this time of my life.

Quoted:
I saw satan.

It was the opening of the Olympics in France.

Quoted:
I’ve never seen satan but I’ve been attacked by him.  For those who proudly boast “He’s not real!”  Here’s a challenge for you.

Before you go to bed, pray for satan.  Pray for his redemption.  Pray that he might throw off his curse of pride and fall before God and beg for forgiveness.  Pray for the enemies salvation, for if he turned back to God so would the world with him.

And I assure you that he will attack you.  He will make you enemy #1.  He will convince your friends to hate you, to foment lies about you.  He will turn your spouse against you, put an addiction on her if he must.  He will make your children reject you and find fault in you and fill them with his pride.

You will watch as your comfortable life disintegrates before your eyes.  Just keep praying for him.  Trust me, you’ll stop before he does.

Quoted:
I don’t think us grunts are imprtant enough for satan to be hanging around us. He’s busy influencing world leaders

A little back story...

I got saved in 1999 and everything about my life changed. Ended up in a new state and alone with The Lord, just working hard at entry level blue collar job and living in a 397 sqft apartment with a murphy bed and going to church every time the doors were opened.

About the first week I was there, which was about two or three weeks after I accepted The Lord, satan approached me three times in my sleep. Now I know what a dream is, and I know what a nightmare is, and this was 10000% neither one of those. This was being awake but being unconscious. Laying in bed with my eyes open but my eyes closed. Being aware 1000% of my surroundings and environment like it was dark but the slap middle of the day. And being so scared I wanted to scream but no sound was coming out.

The CLOSEST thing that I can tell you satan looked like was the scene in Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the lost Ark at the Ark opening ceremony where the last thing everyone say before lightning bolts started killing Germans and faces started getting melted was a greyish whiteish angle of death come out of the Ark and fly in front of the head Nazis and she then turned from a feminine face into a skull.

Now what I saw was not as personified as that. There was no PERSON looking face, but what I saw was that scene sort of flowing looking grey while angel with tattered wings all around it, standing full height in my field of vision above my bed all over every direction that I could see. Had sort of some main body in the middle and a head type structure. And it wanted me friggen dead.

This thing did this three nights in a row, and I never saw it again.

It was frightening to me down to my bones and I was EXTREMELY afraid to go to sleep the second and third and forth nights. I was tremendously relived when his presence was gone

I only throw this out there because this was not a demon. This was satan. And he wanted me back on his team. He wanted me back in a worldly life.

I've spent the last 25 years with a blessed life, far from perfect. I pray for sanctification and be a better witness, but still fall short. I just want all you dudes and ladies to hear that the devil really exists, and so does The Lord. This is not religion. This is reality. And just because you deny the fact that a train is coming that is going to hit you someday, and you can't stay here, doesnt change the fact this it is. You can say you dont believe in it, and it doesnt change the fact that it exists.

So, not religion, just want you all to contemplate your eternal destination. Know that the devil exists, and so does Christ.

Hope everyone out there in GD land is well...

Night terror

Quoted:
Satan was the highest created angel before he rebeled.  He does not look like a horned monster.  He would be one of the most beautiful things you have ever seen. That makes it even easier for him to fool people that come in contact with him.

Quoted:
Congrats. You've had sleep paralysis. Fun isn't it?

Quoted:
I'm a Christian and completely agree that Christ and satan are real.  The mind is also a powerful thing and it sounds like you had every symptom of sleep paralysis and a night terror.  I know a few people who had the same physical description of what you experienced, just saw different stuff.

Quoted:
I've never seen the devil. But I'd imagine that he would not be terrifying. His goal is temptation, so fear would not suit his goals.

Ironically fear is what God uses.
