An invitation to sit in the lap of Satan. What?
The Oklahoma State Capital is the site of religious controversy. Again.
A few years ago a large statue of the Ten Commandments was placed there, and now Satanists want a piece of the action. They raised $20.000 so far in their effort to erect a statue of Satan as Baphomet, a goat-headed figure with horns, wings and a long beard. On either side of this Satan, there would be children sculpted looking up at him.
Wait, there is more.
The statue would have a functional aspect to it as well. Subjects would be able to sit in the lap of Satan for a time of prayer, contemplation or perhaps selling their soul to him. This sounds funny to most people, but this concept is a physical manifestation of the forces of darkness at work in our world.
There is no doubt that at some point this will end up in the courts and the outcome may be on the side of “progress and fairness.” In this case progress and fairness may be giving center stage to the occult who celebrate the fallen nature of man.
The Church of Satan describe their theology like this:
“acceptance of Man’s true nature—that of a carnal beast, living in a cosmos that is indifferent to our existence. To us, Satan is the symbol that best suits the nature of we who are carnal by birth—people who feel no battles raging between our thoughts and feelings, we who do not embrace the concept of a soul imprisoned in a body.”
People who do not feel a sense of morality, a sense of eternal accountability, a sense of consequence of evil — these are the people who want to put their stamp in a government institution.
And who want to invite you to sit in the lap of Satan.
I would like to remind my readers that “The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the works of the devil.” 1 John 3:8
May the true God revealed in the Person of Jesus Christ rebuke this unholy effort!
Delight in Truth 
I know this topic has received national attention as I saw a report on this the other day. Hopefully, they won’t be able to raise the funds to create this evil graven image.
The Bible is clear: “Thou shalt have no other gods before me.”
There will be a huge court battle because of this I’m sure and it will be interesting to see what happens. My understanding is that, if the statue is placed at the Capital, it will be very near the statue of the Ten Commandments. How ironic would that be?
We could use a modern day Elijah.
Thanks for keeping us up to speed on the ungodly developments we see in our day.
God’s blessings…
I somehow am confident that in some way, some form, godliness will prevail here. Hopefully the courts will go with precedent and not allow just about anything to be placed in front of Capitols… will see.. I will follow the story
Reblogged this on Wings of the Wind and commented:
Gary Stearman recently reported on this as he lives near Oklahoma City. Like Delight, “I must refuse this invitation” to sit in Satan’s lap. Delight has put the facts and the picture together here so you can see the plans of some very evil people. I know this story isn’t over yet, but one of us will keep an eye on this story and will post updates.
Do not be alarmed! There is nothing new under the sun.
I think we should all pray and ask our Lord to do what He did to Dagon’s Statue in 1 Samuel 5:3,4. Maybe somebody who lives near to this supposed site would be bold enough to take a walk around this statue if it ever gets built. My thoughts are Jesus is the Arc of God, and He lives in every Christian,so just walk on by and present the Arc of God and see what happens.
Great thought, Manny. I can see the headlines… “Satan statue vandalized”
🙂
Ugh how vile! I think Manny’s idea is perfect! *laughing at the upcoming headlines*
