I will confess to you, that I too have bowed before those other gods...... That is... until I realized that there was no good in me following after the customs and traditions of fools who have no part in the truth......
I crossed my heart among flags and bowed before wooden crosses, that is .... until I realized that they went against the commandments of God.....
It is written that anything that is made with man's hands... in the likeness of anything in the heavens... anything in the water beneath the heavens.... and anything in the firmaments above the waters.... Is idolatry......
That covers every imagination of the mind....... and every place the imagination can venture.....
If the heart is drawn to honor it in any way.... there is idolatry.....
One can look and say, "oh that's nice".... But to be drawn to it.... so that the heart is inclined to honor that thing.... is idolatry......
Be ashamed for a while.... confess that you know it's wrong.... Free yourself of that shame..... and know not to do it again......
your sister,
Ginger

Evidently you are searching, congratulations.
I am a Christian, and I do believe that if you ask for the truth God will answer you. At some point, you will have to repent of worshiping other gods, but the truth is you are a seeker, and God is a good God who will forgive you for making some poor judgements along the way. I did very similar things, but I sincerely wanted to know the truth. The bible says this, the truth will set you free.

Ask the one true God, "creator of the universe and everything" to be real to you. Ask what name to use, if you like.
Remember if a deity looks fine and feels foul it's foul. The meanest evilest person that ever lived is a sweet-heart compared to Lucifer. He keeps trying to play on my sympathies too, but he really doesn't give a hoot about anybody but himself and he's got this revenge thing going on, getting back at God by picking on God's creations.
If you want to talk about the Bible, then remember that in Genesis God created angels to be His servants. Through Christ, we are God's children. Therefore the gods/angels of sky, water, earth, plants, etc. are just your Father's servants. Or they could be a servant that rebelled, one of Lucifer's buddys. If you need something from one of your Dad/creator's servants, go to their boss, your Dad, they'll listen to Him. There are a bunch of translations to choose from at http://www.biblegateway.com/
Once God is real to you, you will feel real truth in your heart and you'll no longer wonder what to do. For me Christianity was the path. I'm not perfect, I've screwed up (sinned), bad karma and all that. Trying to get perfect so I can go to a perfect place, a.k.a. heaven, is like glueing broken porcelin back together and expecting it to be perfect, it will always be flawed and so will I. Except that God has that sin-erasing plan that He worked out via salvation through Jesus. I'm glad that God gave me the freedom to choose. Maybe it's a path that will work for you too. (Sorry if some self rightious folks have tried to bother you today.)

You have had a unique experience to broaden your horizons that most of us don't get. And as a result, you have learned that even Lucifer is part of God. What you feel in your heart is what you feel. Take the time to build a personal relationship with the God of your personal understanding. Ask the God of your personal understading to reveal itself to you. No one can really tell you what is "true". You need to see what "truth " is for you......

Listen to me young human. You live in a would that is created and formed by and experienced through your beliefs. This is a playground where you are to learn that your thoughts and beliefs about you and the physical world that you experience are en masse, the psychological tools you use to create the world that you know. Change your beliefs at the core, and watch how your so-called official reality changes along with them., and you. Read this once per day for 21 days, take two cookies in the morning, and for gods sake and yours,...Fix this planet! Now is the time!...............Human

The Bible tells us in Deuteronomy 18:10-13; "There shall not be found among you anyone who makes his son or his daughter pass through the fire, or one who practices witchcraft, or a soothsayer, or one who interprets omens, or a sorcerer, or one who conjures spells, or a medium, or a spiritist, or one who calls up the dead. For all who do these things are an abomination to the LORD, and because of these abominations the LORD your God drives them out from before you. You shall be blameless before the LORD your God."

What ur doing is wrong, as there is only 1 ONE God worthy of worship. All other deities are false. The satan is MISLEADING u, but if u truly believe in the Bible then u should have the knowledge of there being only 1 ONE God.

Dear friend you are innocent because you don't know what you are doing. Try to find a quiet moment and sincerely ask the God of peace and love to inspire you where to go.
Then go there and stay.
Peace

Follow what's in your heart, no one here can tell you who the true God is, they can ONLY tell you who they THINK the real God is, if you feel strongest about a belief, then follow it, and don't let anyone try to convert you into their walks of life, since they do not know for sure if they are even right.

If you do these things with a good heart, then it is good, if you do things by thinking from your head and not heart, it could be bad. If you pray for good and prepare yourself with sage for example and ask the high power for protection, it sounds just fine. I really do not think God, would harm people for following their heart and doing what is good. That is, not harming yourself or others. Yes, I feel sorry for Beelzebub, dang Angel loved God so much and is so filled with Jealousy and throwing tantrums, that is must be hell for him.
