Lost money in a bet tempts me to try worshipping Satan-would I be able to get my run of luck back?

Question

After losing a substantial amount of money in a card game I've been considering Satanism as a way of making some money back.

I have a number of children, a wife, and a lover. All these cost money,even though I try not to spend much on the kids my wife always buys expensive food for them, and insists the kids have useless crap bought them like books and stuff.

Would trying to sell my soul to Satan, or at the very least try and ask him for help extract me from my precarious financial situation, or would I be better just talking with my bank manager?

Any advice would be welcome-thanks.

Answer 1

Don't be another superstitious drone. "Satan" is a figment of mythology's imagination -- a Judeo-Christian mythology, in particular.

Answer 2

I used to think that a Bank Manager had a lot in common with Satan. That was until I:
1. met my Bank Manager, who really is a very nice man, and;
2. realised that Satan doesn't exist.

Your bank will offer a much better interest rate than a non-existent demon, which is nice.

If your bank is unwilling to lend you the money, you might politely suggest that you will start looking for another bank.

Above all, you have to have a plan of how you will safely earn that money back. Your bank is within its rights to refuse a loan if you cannot clearly demonstrate that you will be able to pay it back.

First... very few people successfully sell their souls. The Enemy rarely buys formally that which is already His. So formally proclaiming your allegiance to the Dark Lord carries no guarantee of his actually granting you aid.


Second, remember those who did it before you : Your station in this world may increase (if He feels like helping you), but you're forfeiting any hopes of redemption for the Next...


And remember, even if the Lord can be very forgiving, it still takes True Repentance and will to be Reconciled to gain it... and Repentance comes harder to those who have closed their hearts and souls to the Lord...

So, now, the choice is yours. If you truly feels that this world is the only one that counts, go ahead, the worst you'll be in for is probably performing ridiculous rites... Then again, if you believe in the Devil, you probably also believe in God, and turning away from the Lord is generally not a good idea.

In ancient Jewish tradition Satan is simply an angel doing the work that God assigned to Satan to do.

The word Satan means challenger. With the idea of Satan challenging us, or tempting if you will. This description sees Satan as the angel who is the embodiment of man's challenges. This idea of Satan works closely with God as an integral part of Gods plan for us. His job is to make choosing good over evil enough of a challenge so that it becomes clear to us that there can be only one meaningful or logical choice.

Contrast this to Christianity, which sees Satan as God's opponent. In Jewish thought, the idea that there exists anything capable of setting itself up as God's opponent would be considered polytheistic or setting up the devil to be an equally powerful polarity to god or a demigod.

Oddly, proof for The Christian satan/devil mythology is supposedly found in the ancient Jewish texts that were borrowed to create the bible. One can’t help but wonder how Christians came up with such a fantastically different interpretation of Gods assistant Satan in their theology.

Other hints about Satan’s role in human relations can be seen if you look at the name Lucifer. It’s meaning in the original tongue translates as Light bearer or light bringer. Essentially the bringer of enlightenment. The temptations of the Satan idea bring all of us eventually into Gods light. Hardly the Evil entity of Christian mythology.

can you not realize now that what you are actually doing now are the temptation from Satan? engaging on a gambling game either card game or whatever it is one of the devils work or Satan's work, maintaining a lover which is adulterous is evil thing, then your attempt to sell your soul to Satan . Anyway on the things I have stated therein which came from your very own words, it seems you have loaned ;your soul already. repent and ask forgiveness to God and do not commit sin anymore.

Answer 6

I really hope you are joking but if not....
You are already worshiping Satan, and apparently it is not working for you. Try worshiping God, lose the lover, quit gambling, spend time with the kids, and see how quickly your money increases.

Answer 7

Please! You must be joking! You don't really think one of the most evil, heartless entities in existence would actually help, do you?

Don't sign anything from the bank manager. You will be signing your life away. That scum has one goal: to strip anything you value from you.

Go talk to Satan. He's got a bad reputation, but he's really a cool dude. Anything he will take from you, you don't really need anyway. Trust me, you'll win out.

Answer 8

Satan may very well give you wealth, but when he is finished with you, he will spit you out and kill you if he can.

Selling your soul to Satan is no light matter, and has serious consequences. Terry Bukler was a Christian, and turned away from God to bars and alcohol. The more he gave in to Satan, the better life got. Payrises, poker machines, etc, he was doing very well...until an evil angel met him in the bar.

His friend sighted a great shot on the pool table, and said, Terry, did you see that? (Terry was looking the opposite direction). He said, yes I did. His friend said. You can't have! Alright, tell me the next three shots. And Terry did. Exactly as they were played. Things got spooky with that, and his friend took off out the door. Terry then saw a being appear over the serving bar. The eyes were brilliant, and the being said, Terry, your job, car, house, gambling success, I have given it all to you. But I can't do for you what I want to because you haven't given me your soul yet. Not completely.

Terry knew this was the Devil or one of his angels, and he remembered his mother's prayers, and the faith in Christ. He thought to Himself, 'I wonder if I would dive to me knees, would God save me from this Demon?'

He made his decision not to sell his soul to the Devil, and lept for the ground. He didn't make it to the ground...I a second the angel had grabbed him in mid air and was beating him to a pulp. Eyewitnesses said it was clearly something beating him up. After a while they saw him jump like a frog, straight through a thick, high security door. Later he woke up next to his car, battered, but still alive. He had given himself to the Devil enough that he could rough him up a bit, but God saved him, and he spent the next three weeks memorizing scripture, and committing his life to God. After that he started to help other people improve their lives, and sharing how they could find Christ, and find peace, being kind and thoughtful to their children and wives, not cheating on them, and leading others to find Christ and His great salvation.

Answer 9

You look more like a witch doctor to me. Try sighning up for voodoo lessons. Satan will only get you so far in life and then you will die and go to hell.

Answer 10

You'll probably get your run of luck back but you'll have to trade in your life, spirit, soul and body. With satan, everything comes really high priced.

Answer 11

Satan was an invention by christianity to label pagans
Mother goose is probably valid as any other religion
