You are living proof that satanists do attend church. The other day I talked about their secrecy and only had thumbs down. Either way, the Lord is working in your heart. I praise Him for that. Telling the people at the church you attend will be good for you. I don't know what they're response will be, that depends on how mature they are as Christians. I would hope they show forgiveness and embrace you and pray with you. It will probably be a big relief, because you have been amongst them in a deceptive way. God loves you. If you have given your life to Satan, He will not let you go easily. Knowing you will want to reveal yourself will be great opportunity for him to do whatever he can to stop you. Be aware of that, and boldly step forward in faith. Even Satan acknowledged that God is the only all powerful being. He knows what he's up against but relies on us sinners to work in his favor. In the end, he will lose.

What's the point? Shock value? If that's the path you have chosen, then there shouldn't be a need to rub it in other people's faces. Doing so would make you no better than Christians.
BTW, of course they're nice! The Hale-Bopp comet weirdos all drank the Kool-Aid with smiles on THEIR faces, too! Even if you're a Satanist, you still FOLLOW instead of being in control of your own life.

Just like life... Be careful who you speak with you can get hurt and I would prefer you to continue to go. From experience I would call and make an appointment with the pastor and his wife and leave it there until you have been there while you grow spiritually. Some denominations just don't understand your position.
I would say I've heard and seen it all, but I learn something new everyday. I will be praying for you. No matter what just keep on keeping on,and God bless you.

I would not dare do that if I were you, I can't even confess that I smoke Marijuana. You would be waving a red flag in front of them. Do you know what they would do, they would chuck you out of their church or they will lay hands on you and do some hocus pocus like trying to cast Demons out of you.
Please do me a favor and email me, I am interested in studying what you believe, I have never spoken to a self confessed Satanist before.
I study all religions and I seriously don't judge.
I am in the process of writing a novel and it would be great to have the opinions of the real deal.
Please don't expect me to follow your teachings, I am doing this to satisfy my curiosity.

they should accept your right to be a person no matter what, that is what they preach right?, forgiveness. You respect them because they "teach people all kinds of stuff" and feel "theyre all pretty nice", they should extend you the same courtesy. So the answer to your question is yes, they will either accept your right to differ in opinions or not in which case they are hypocrites.

Yes of course. Being a Satanist or a Christian doesn't excuse a liar. To lie is wrong no matter what you are. Satanism and Christianity are both fairy tale religions dependent on one another. Tit for tat. Why don't you tell them your gay while your at it whether you are or not. See how that flies just to see how forgiving they are. Quit believing in fairytales and you won't have to explain yourself to anyone.

Man cannot serve two masters! Choose one! God or Satan! If you want out of the Satanism then tell your Christian church group they can help you. If your choice is Satan then leave the christian church as your truth lies elsewhere! Don't listen to people who will tell you that the Christians will not pray for you.

I would just stop going to church. You cant go to church while everyone is preaching and say, "Hey, by the way I dont believe in the big man upstairs" That will not fly well with them.

Yes tell them. I'm sure they have not had a good stoning in years and would relish the act of throwing the rocks at you.
