Pentagram is a thing to be feared damn it, don't you know how difficult it is to draw free hand and be perfect? it's almost as difficult as a perfect circle... wait, maybe the circle should be just as feared.

A Pentacle and the Pentagram are two completely different symbols. When the star ⭐️ is pointing upwards inside of a ⭕️ that is a protection symbol. When the point is at bottom and upside down that is a pentagram.
Jesus said: "My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me. I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one will snatch them out of my hand. My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all; no one can snatch them out of my Father’s hand. I and the Father are one." John 10:27-30 (NIV):
Thomas said to him, “Lord, we don’t know where you are going, so how can we know the way?” Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." (John 14:5-6)
The inverted pentagram (upside down) is a symbol to represent invoking energies from the divine realm into the magicians body, so the 2 points facing upwards are like someone's arms outstretched invoking energy from the higher realms into their body
Good video! I think it's really important to educate oneself on symbols, etc. I'm Christian myself and so many Christians can be stubborn and not actually look into this symbol. It has history. Also, do you have links to the sources you used?
Thank You! I appreciate your open mindedness and willingness to learn from a religious standpoint. This is hugely exciting for me to read your comment 💜🙏🏼 Wishing you all the best 🙏🏼😇
Our only symbol should be the True Cross. "May I never boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world." (Galatians 6:14)
How did you fail to mention the reason the pentagram is associated with Venus is because of the orbit of the planet in relationship to our planet. All metaphysical principles usually come from astrology/astronomy. Also, the duality of its symbolism, the point upwards represents masculinity, the point downwards represents femininity. As above, so below.
@@kimeraclan3135 The mythological deities come after the cosmological formations, not the other way around. Venus, Inana, Isthar, Aphrodite, Diana all represent the same thing, Femininity. Women come from Venus and Man from Mars... sounds familiar, uh? If you think of planets as giant rocks it doesn't make sense, but we know the planet atmosphere has a specific resonance, so do other celestial bodies, if they all vibrate at different frequencies they have different effects in relation to other bodies, stars, and galaxies... n_n is always funny how people gravitate towards the narrative but never learn why things represent what they do.
@@Nairod2 While I do agree to the latter portion of your comment, regarding significance and cultural context of myth and deity, I should rectify my earlier words.

That is why the mythos repeat on isolated cultures through the world.

Templars never worshiped Baphomet. They worshiped the Christian God. If history is correct, they were created by the Roman Cathilic Church. Last I checked, they don't worship Baphomet.
Nah, they didn't believe in old Yaldabaoth. True, though, they didn't really worship Baphomet, as the symbolism is really just a representation of harmonious balance... Naturally the French Catholics had something to say about potential idol worship when encountering this illustration, but mostly because it suited the king to dispose of the moneylenders rather than owe them (and this iconography is too easy to intentionally correlate with devilry).
Templars that were tortured and interrogated admitted to worshipping a deity by the same name. But there was different descriptions of Baphoment, nor did they worship Eliphas Levi's depiction.

But that's the rub, the connotation is set in stone. As an avid history buff AND a filmmaker, I understand the frustration to shoehorning in the ol' "Satanic" iconography and ouija boards, but it's not due to a lack of understanding, its just so engrained in the visual medium, a shorthand for evil entities and the sort, thus it feels almost weird when such aspects aren't present. This especially is the case with specific locations and sound FX in film, there's such a strong link in how audiences perceive these elements that the film loses that immediate link because general audiences are so conditioned to react a specific way. When I was an editor, I'd go for realism, layering audio cues up on audio cues, and it didn't have the same effect as those traditional cues. It's a fascinating bit of psychology.
this is a good point, but it's also silly to not understand that good art CREATES connotation. needing to use 'traditional' sounds means your art is not good enough on its own, no?
@Ethan Ross Sure, but you're discounting the fact that, like all art, there's AESTHETIC CRITERIA. Intuitive process and pure creation have their role, I mean, that's art for ya, but you're effectively saying there's no rules or existing psychology in visual storytelling. Psychological underpinnings won't magically change just because we go avant-garde. There's still tried and true methods and ways to communicate with the audience. These underpinnings extend beyond art. That's a big part of the puzzle, curbing an audience whilst also not pushing them away and getting the desired emotion and effects. Of course, I'm not saying it can't be done, but it's requires a changing perception on religious, cultural, and social levels as well as filmic.
@@almightytallestred Yeah you could say that, could also give the same meaning to the Batman symbol in the sky etc, although in the batman universe it means help, but being a symbol by itself is useless, unless it's giving a meaning, even with meaning doesn't actually mean the symbol does anything, like Nintendo, Xbox, PlayStation etc, those symbols are a meaning of, come here (this is our product)/trademark, by itself nobody would know what it is without someone explaining it.

@@Joseph_R._Azevedo the video os made by someone who has no real idea as to what is truly hidden behind the scenes. Right now the luciferian agenda is to pass of everything evil as good or to blur the lines between the two. They are doing it through mainstream media such as these videos and through the entertainment industry, they are indoncrinating you into believing that these symbols are harmless. They will never tell you the truth until you are in over your head. It is the same with white witchcraft which masquerades as "good" magic. There is no witchcraft that is good, it all comes from the same source and by the time you come to realise that you are already in to deep and getting out becomes a horrific journey, nothing good comes from dabbling with thse things, no human weilds power, what moves things are the disembodies spirits (demonic enttities) behind the spells you think you are using to help. Remember that satan masquerades as an angel of light and he is the father of lies, the great deceiver, once you enter you become their prisoner. Anton lavey died after a spiritual battle with people of God, he was pursuing a teen who was raised in his cult after she witnessed satanic rituals being done on babies and chose to leave them. You have no idea that these things are all connected and once you dabble in the occult you open doorways to these demonic entoties to enter your life and to begin to affect things, nothing good comes from using this symbol, it is evil, do not buy into the medias agenda to view witchcraft and such symbols as harmless, they are not, these symbols act as doorways to let these unclean things into your lives. Look at Hollywood, do you know almost all these actors andd actresses engage in such and then wonder why they later on have such a miserable ending (drugs, suicide, diet issues?), they are infested with these entities who won't let them rest in peace once they opened these doorways using the same symbols. When will you wake up to the spiritual battle being waged around you? You will learn too late.
@Top Hat not always, i mean theyve tracked down animal abusers and people that have commited crimes against children, but generally thats tge exception. Otherwise, yes, they live to create chaos. Lol
The inverted pentagram represents man’s basic instinct. Facing downward, it means to follow base, instinctual desires. Doesn’t mean evil…means following natural desires rather than spiritual
Interesting vid, a neighbor of mine is a neo pagan I guess. I always thought she was just some creepy Halloween enthusiast. At least I know she's not trying to summon some demon, well... to my knowledge, I'd hate to have to put on some crusader armor if I didn't have to.
It's not that the pentagram means evil, but I represents the control of the 4 traditional elements (the 4 points below the top point) over the top point being the soul. When you have the top point going down, it represents the elements in control of the spirit. This is man giving into his most carnal and bestial nature, being controlled be what is outside of the soul and basically rejecting the divinity with himself. This can also be seen as giving into materialistic and superficial urges. The top point being at the top (the pentacle being in it's "proper" position) represents the soul in control of the elements: being able to determine your own destiny and.being one with the divinity within. This is NOT being influenced by the carnal and the superficial, seeing through the illusions and self destructive outcomes they represent. It also represents Magickal power (using the spelling Aliester Crowley used to distinguish true "Magick" from slight of hand "Magic"), since the soul and the divine are.wjwre Magickal power are supposed to have their source. There's more I could go into, but that is why Levi said the upsidedown version it represents "evil": its the rejection of the higher self and the indulgence of the more base and destructive aspects of human nature. Hope that gives a little more perspective on the "evil version" of the 5 pointed star.

Have you read "Sir Gawain and the Green Knight"? When Sir Gawain embarks on his quest, his shield is explicitly stated to have a five-pointed star emblazoned upon it. I always thought that a fascinating choice, considering how these were Christian knights. I suppose the girdle mentioned later on could be the "circle" of the pentacle. I'm not sure about that one.
There are many pentagrams on Gothic Era Christian churches. It's funny that Christianity has become so fearful of everything as 'demonic' like, dudes, yall beat the devil in your own book, what you afraid of? 😂
Acts 7:43 NKJV You also took up the tabernacle of Moloch, And the star of your god Remphan, Images which you made to worship; And I will carry you away beyond Babylon.’
Man crazy stuff, i just did a post using a similar Pentagram on one of my linked in posts and said very similar stuff! Crazy how the universe works 😂. I'm positive you didn't happen across it and copy me, hence why it's a crazy coincidence. Also, you made it way before me 😂😂😂😂
I think the five-pointed star is actually a constellation as the stars move. Something with the advent of the Age of Aquarius. I think it's already happened, so the constellation isnt in that shape anymore. I was looking into this years ago and i cant really remember it all fully anymore, but these constellation changes are kind of like a change in the world around us too. There's other symbols that appear in the constellation too a since the stars are moving around a circle. They also seemed to be linked to signs of different genders, not just male or female but others as well. I think the Star of David appeared in the constellation a long time ago. So they seem to signify the changing of an era, or at the very least serve as an indication of time for someone to begin certain events that change the world
You are so lost in devil's lies... he is the father of lies. he's lying now to you as he lied to Eve, depiction of what you can see on The Devil Tarot Card. There is no duality with God. There is no sin in God, because God is holy. What are you choosing? Holiness or so-called duality? Who do you wanna be with? God or satan? For I am the Lord your God. Consecrate yourselves therefore, and be holy, for I am holy. And you shall not make yourselves unclean with any of the swarming things that swarm on the earth (Leviticus 11:44) As obedient children, do not conform to the evil desires you had when you lived in ignorance. But just as He who called you is holy, so be holy in all you do; for it is written: “Be holy, because I am holy. (1 Peter 1:14-16, an apostle of Jesus Christ) He has saved us and called us to a holy life-not because of anything we have done but because of his own purpose and grace.” (2 Timothy 1:9) when you heard about Christ and were taught in him in accordance with the truth that is in Jesus. Put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness (Ephesians 4:21-24) Jesus Christ is the perfect example of one who walked in holiness. If we look at how He lived and exemplified holiness, we see a life committed to honoring God, showing love, honoring parents, serving others, and keeping the body holy. Jesus stood up and said to her, “Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?” She said, “No one, Lord.” And Jesus said, “Neither do I condemn you; go, and from now on sin no more.” John (8:10-11)
Acts 7:43 You also took up the tabernacle of Moloch, And the star of your god Remphan, Images which you made to worship; And I will carry you away beyond Babylon.’

A freemason told me the pentagram on the freemasons signs and womens buildings called the eastern star, represented the star of Bethlehem that led the wise men to the virgin birth of our lord and savior Jesus Christ. Then i asked him about the pentagram in DC designed into the streets by freemasons just north of the whitehouse pointing directly to it......he freaked out.
I consider myself Christian. An admittedly rather heathen-istic one but none the less. I still love the Baphomet emblazoned pentagram for its sheer ability to offend. The metaphorical clutching of pearls if you will at its mere sight. It’s great. 🤘🏻😏
I think it’s sad. Fiction messed up a lot of witchcraft and spiritual symbols. The pentagram / pentacle is a well known symbol for many witchcraft practitioners. But we can’t tell people otherwise, because everyone* is arrogant these days or say that god is the only thing to believe in… sigh
I'm sorry. I had to like this video, changing the like count from 999 to 1k. As everyone knows, 999 is the REAL number of evil... You thought 666 was bad, putting it upside down makes it even worse!
Let it be that the symbol of the star be representative of heaven for it like it so represents light and everything good for when it is inverse it represents all evil
@Strong Believer of the Holy Bible you see theres a thing called history. In this history you can judge approximately when something occurred or if something occured based upon the arrival of the idea in the writings and documents of contemporaries. In this case, we credit year 1 Ce (or AD to non academics) as the year of jesus birth with 33ish being the time of the crucifixion. 2000 years is an rounded off # to cover any errors made in the establishment of the timeline. Interestingly enough its not until about 35-40 years later that the story of jesus begins to pick up in popularity with the first canonized gospels being written around 80 or 90 CE.
@@NotA-Lizard I just wanna know why and how these folks find these occult subjects and are so keen to talk about them, especially when they are supposed to be verboten according to their creed.
The pentagram goes all the way back to Babylon so does they all sing I stretches all the way into Babylonian history Sumerianp they're getting what you think is truth but it's coming from gnosticism
The pentagram is the symbol of many ancient cultures as it's the petals of the flower of Venus. The points of the petals of the path it traces across the sky once every 8 years. It's how they used to determine when the Olympic games were set!!!! P.s. nevermind read the rest the comments!!! Hahaha excellent poitns people!!! Also amazing video!!!!! But as a "Pagan" in the loosest sense of the word. We don't like Wicca. It's a poor imitation of the craft itself
Is it upside down or simply begin to roll over in a certain direction. If it rolls which way will it be when at a complete stop? Who knows, I personally don't buy into things like that. Heck, even the Nazi symbol I still view it as a Buddhist symbol and strongly dislike how it's gotten a bad rap.
The pentagram is linked to Ishtar, a goddess who is also connected to Aphrodite, essentially representing the same deity. Aphrodite, one of whose symbols is Venus, is associated with Satan because Venus is referred to as the morning star, a celestial object worshipped :D But wait Jesus calls himself the morning star as well. What does that all mean? MUHAHAHAHAHAHA Work it out
I enjoy your videos but when it comes to biblical understanding they leave a huge opening in one’s mind. The star has always represented Satan. Angels are considered Stars. Satan is the fallen star. The same star was used in ISREAL and still is today. These symbols have original origins and involve the Bible in some fashion. I’m sure most people would want that book destroyed but I am thankful it hasn’t.
Many churches that spread a gospel of condemnation and teachings about Satan could also be called Churches of Satan in Christ's name as told in Revelations, because that is the focus of the minister's of Satan.

They are doing it through mainstream media such as these videos and through the entertainment industry, they are indoncrinating you into believing that these symbols are harmless. They will never tell you the truth until you are in over your head. It is the same with white witchcraft which masquerades as "good" magic. There is no witchcraft that is good, it all comes from the same source and by the time you come to realise that you are already in to deep and getting out becomes a horrific journey, nothing good comes from dabbling with thse things, no human weilds power, what moves things are the disembodies spirits (demonic enttities) behind the spells you think you are using to help. Remember that satan masquerades as an angel of light and he is the father of lies, the great deceiver, once you enter you become their prisoner. Anton lavey died after a spiritual battle with people of God, he was pursuing a teen who was raised in his cult after she witnessed satanic rituals being done on babies and chose to leave them. You have no idea that these things are all connected and once you dabble in the occult you open doorways to these demonic entoties to enter your life and to begin to affect things, nothing good comes from using this symbol, it is evil, do not buy into the medias agenda to view witchcraft and such symbols as harmless, they are not, these symbols act as doorways to let these unclean things into your lives. Look at Hollywood, do you know almost all these actors andd actresses engage in such and then wonder why they later on have such a miserable ending (drugs, suicide, diet issues?), they are infested with these entities who won't let them rest in peace once they opened these doorways using the same symbols. When will you wake up to the spiritual battle being waged around you? You will learn too late.

No penta- except "penta-cost" is bad .......this is the most recondite definition "Abracadabra" has 5 A's and 6 constenents representing penta-/Hexa-

The inverted pentagram represents man’s basic instinct. Facing downward, it means to follow base, instinctual desires. Doesn’t mean evil…means following natural desires rather than spiritual
That’s literally the definition of evil. We aren’t animals. We have consciousness and know better than following our bodies urges.
Haha I love the Halloween town Reference
Interesting vid, a neighbor of mine is a neo pagan I guess. I always thought she was just some creepy Halloween enthusiast. At least I know she's not trying to summon some demon, well... to my knowledge, I'd hate to have to put on some crusader armor if I didn't have to.
God created demons and they are all subservient to him.

@@thatwolfensteinguy8954 Well, in some sense, sure. but in reality, we do. If we are pure and wise, how will a demon cause havoc?
Perfect timing 🔥
It's not that the pentagram means evil, but I represents the control of the 4 traditional elements (the 4 points below the top point) over the top point being the soul. When you have the top point going down, it represents the elements in control of the spirit. This is man giving into his most carnal and bestial nature, being controlled be what is outside of the soul and basically rejecting the divinity with himself. This can also be seen as giving into materialistic and superficial urges. The top point being at the top (the pentacle being in it's "proper" position) represents the soul in control of the elements: being able to determine your own destiny and.being one with the divinity within. This is NOT being influenced by the carnal and the superficial, seeing through the illusions and self destructive outcomes they represent. It also represents Magickal power (using the spelling Aliester Crowley used to distinguish true "Magick" from slight of hand "Magic"), since the soul and the divine are.wjwre Magickal power are supposed to have their source. There's more I could go into, but that is why Levi said the upsidedown version it represents "evil": its the rejection of the higher self and the indulgence of the more base and destructive aspects of human nature. Hope that gives a little more perspective on the "evil version" of the 5 pointed star.
Thomas said to him, “Lord, we don’t know where you are going, so how can we know the way?” Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." (John 14:5-6)
There's a church in Hanover, Germany, which bears a giant upside-down pentagram. It's also supposed to represent the 5 wounds of Christ. Lol
And in truth the pentagram and pentacle to back even farther in certain cultures
Have you read "Sir Gawain and the Green Knight"? When Sir Gawain embarks on his quest, his shield is explicitly stated to have a five-pointed star emblazoned upon it.
I always thought that a fascinating choice, considering how these were Christian knights.
I suppose the girdle mentioned later on could be the "circle" of the pentacle. I'm not sure about that one.
There are many pentagrams on Gothic Era Christian churches. It's funny that Christianity has become so fearful of everything as 'demonic'
like, dudes, yall beat the devil in your own book, what you afraid of? 😂
Actually, they had many things to challenge.
I mean, it's scary if you're younger than 12. The one that scares me more is the six pointed one
Supernatural at least tried to be different by having it trap demons instead of summon. 🤷
It also trapped Angels if on fire.
@@maccurtis730 That was more the Holy Oil than the pentagram.
we can only cast out demons in the name of Jesus
The thing with pentagram is that it's just an inverted pentacle, which as you mentioned is a symbol of modern pagan practice of Wicca.
bruh the okay symbol is NOT a white supremacy symbol lmao. that's a 4chan joke
We're sorry that the content on this channel was too much for your sensibilities.

Man crazy stuff, i just did a post using a similar Pentagram on one of my linked in posts and said very similar stuff! Crazy how the universe works 😂. I'm positive you didn't happen across it and copy me, hence why it's a crazy coincidence. Also, you made it way before me 😂😂😂😂
I think the five-pointed star is actually a constellation as the stars move. Something with the advent of the Age of Aquarius. I think it's already happened, so the constellation isnt in that shape anymore.
I was looking into this years ago and i cant really remember it all fully anymore, but these constellation changes are kind of like a change in the world around us too. There's other symbols that appear in the constellation too a since the stars are moving around a circle. They also seemed to be linked to signs of different genders, not just male or female but others as well. I think the Star of David appeared in the constellation a long time ago. So they seem to signify the changing of an era, or at the very least serve as an indication of time for someone to begin certain events that change the world
Supernatural portrays them as "demon traps" they get stuck standing inside one
Baphomet is a good symbol to me, reconciliation of opposites, life force, you know the deal. 93
You are so lost in devil's lies... he is the father of lies. he's lying now to you as he lied to Eve, depiction of what you can see on The Devil Tarot Card. There is no duality with God. There is no sin in God, because God is holy. What are you choosing? Holiness or so-called duality? Who do you wanna be with? God or satan?
For I am the Lord your God. Consecrate yourselves therefore, and be holy, for I am holy. And you shall not make yourselves unclean with any of the swarming things that swarm on the earth (Leviticus 11:44)
As obedient children, do not conform to the evil desires you had when you lived in ignorance. But just as He who called you is holy, so be holy in all you do; for it is written: “Be holy, because I am holy. (1 Peter 1:14-16, an apostle of Jesus Christ)
He has saved us and called us to a holy life-not because of anything we have done but because of his own purpose and grace.” (2 Timothy 1:9)
when you heard about Christ and were taught in him in accordance with the truth that is in Jesus.
Put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness (Ephesians 4:21-24)
Jesus Christ is the perfect example of one who walked in holiness. If we look at how He lived and exemplified holiness, we see a life committed to honoring God, showing love, honoring parents, serving others, and keeping the body holy.
Jesus stood up and said to her, “Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?” She said, “No one, Lord.” And Jesus said, “Neither do I condemn you; go, and from now on sin no more.” John (8:10-11)

What clips did you use for this video
Thank you.
Stanislas de Guiata established the Pentagram as symbol of Satan, including the hebrew letters on the circle, which the Church of Satan later adopted.
That is base in truth difference but many are pointed as hiding due to such, I agree how it just gets out of hands.
Know I initially liked the video because of the intro
Can look fitting in some places with branches and ravens, and like set, the raven and the ram, while I usually go with an ankh, or crook and flail of osiris, or statue of neith myself.

A freemason told me the pentagram on the freemasons signs and womens buildings called the eastern star, represented the star of Bethlehem that led the wise men to the virgin birth of our lord and savior Jesus Christ. Then i asked him about the pentagram in DC designed into the streets by freemasons just north of the whitehouse pointing directly to it......he freaked out.
First thing that pops in my head is witches! And warlocks!
Thank you for that MoneyPenny
I consider myself Christian. An admittedly rather heathen-istic one but none the less. I still love the Baphomet emblazoned pentagram for its sheer ability to offend. The metaphorical clutching of pearls if you will at its mere sight. It’s great. 🤘🏻😏
Jesus had 6 wounds 2 feet , 2 hands, crown, and side (ribs) …..
I think it’s sad. Fiction messed up a lot of witchcraft and spiritual symbols. The pentagram / pentacle is a well known symbol for many witchcraft practitioners.
But we can’t tell people otherwise, because everyone* is arrogant these days or say that god is the only thing to believe in… sigh
I'm sorry. I had to like this video, changing the like count from 999 to 1k.

I tried drawing this penetegram I just can't only the cross and nothing else
Let it be that the symbol of the star be representative of heaven for it like it so represents light and everything good for when it is inverse it represents all evil

You people have been saying that for 2000 years give or take. Maybe someday youll realize that its a fairy tale
@@NotA-Lizard how do you know it’s been 2000 years ago?
@Strong Believer of the Holy Bible you see theres a thing called history. In this history you can judge approximately when something occurred or if something occured based upon the arrival of the idea in the writings and documents of contemporaries. In this case, we credit year 1 Ce (or AD to non academics) as the year of jesus birth with 33ish being the time of the crucifixion. 2000 years is an rounded off # to cover any errors made in the establishment of the timeline. Interestingly enough its not until about 35-40 years later that the story of jesus begins to pick up in popularity with the first canonized gospels being written around 80 or 90 CE.

Yeah Prince of darkness
The pentagram goes all the way back to Babylon so does they all sing I stretches all the way into Babylonian history Sumerianp they're getting what you think is truth but it's coming from gnosticism
Symbols have no power of their own. Prayers have no power of their own.
No the pentagram stretches back all the way back to Babylon
There's a sculpture of George Washington (the original G Dubya) in that Baphomet pose. The conspiracy nuts love it. 🤣
Baphomet is very similar to Baptist
The pentagram is the symbol of many ancient cultures as it's the petals of the flower of Venus. The points of the petals of the path it traces across the sky once every 8 years. It's how they used to determine when the Olympic games were set!!!! P.s. nevermind read the rest the comments!!! Hahaha excellent poitns people!!! Also amazing video!!!!! But as a "Pagan" in the loosest sense of the word. We don't like Wicca. It's a poor imitation of the craft itself
Why do I see the Pentagram associated with YHWH? Tetragramaton- tetra is 4, not 5
First to comment on the video! 😀 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Is it upside down or simply begin to roll over in a certain direction. If it rolls which way will it be when at a complete stop? Who knows, I personally don't buy into things like that. Heck, even the Nazi symbol I still view it as a Buddhist symbol and strongly dislike how it's gotten a bad rap.
The pentagram is linked to Ishtar, a goddess who is also connected to Aphrodite, essentially representing the same deity. Aphrodite, one of whose symbols is Venus, is associated with Satan because Venus is referred to as the morning star, a celestial object worshipped :D But wait Jesus calls himself the morning star as well. What does that all mean? MUHAHAHAHAHAHA Work it out
lol i have a big fucking pentagram cover my whole right hand. hail satan etc yaay
Prisoners of the law🤫
I enjoy your videos but when it comes to biblical understanding they leave a huge opening in one’s mind. The star has always represented Satan. Angels are considered Stars. Satan is the fallen star. The same star was used in ISREAL and still is today. These symbols have original origins and involve the Bible in some fashion. I’m sure most people would want that book destroyed but I am thankful it hasn’t.
Many churches that spread a gospel of condemnation and teachings about Satan could also be called Churches of Satan in Christ's name as told in Revelations, because that is the focus of the minister's of Satan.
