Christians Always Under Attack!

The Satanic Temple was issued a permit to set a public display inside the rotunda of the Iowa State Capitol.  This is their right under the under the first amendment. They complied with Iowa's Laws and submitted for the permit and was approved for the display with a few changes, they wanted to use a real rams head. From their website and Facebook pages this is a few of their agenda for society; A satanic Abortion clinic, A Child/student rights card to protect them for punishment under religious beliefs even a after school Satan Club for kids, Advocate for Satanic Representation on College campus's. Reported by Daily Mail

Let's Pray for their Soul!

 Heavenly Father, I come to you in the name of Jesus Christ, your Son and my Lord and Savior. I lift up to you all who is involved in satanism. I ask you to have mercy on them and to save them from the power of darkness and the snare of the devil. I ask you to open their eyes, ears, and heart to the truth of the gospel and to the love of Christ. I ask you to break any chains, curses, or strongholds that may bind them to satanism. I ask you to send your angels, your servants, and your resources to help him/her to escape from the enemy’s grip and to find salvation and freedom in Christ. I ask you to heal them from any wounds, hurts, or traumas that may have led them to satanism. I ask you to restore them to your image and likeness, and to give them a new identity, purpose, and destiny in you. I ask you to fill them with your Holy Spirit and to transform them into a new creation in Christ. I ask you to make them a child of God, a member of your family, and a citizen of your kingdom. I ask you to use them for your glory and for the advancement of your kingdom. I ask all these things in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

What and Whom is the Satanic Temple: 

This organization is against the Christian way of life here in America. Of course! their headquarters is located in Salem MA, inside an old Funeral Parlor. Per their website, The Satanic Temple is a non-theistic religious organization that uses Satanic imagery to promote civil rights, secularism, and social justice. It does not believe in a supernatural Satan, but rather in the literary Satan as a symbol of rebellion and autonomy. It follows seven tenets that emphasize compassion, reason, freedom, and justice. They are primarily based in the United States, with additional congregations in Australia, Canada, Finland, Germany, and the United Kingdom. My opinion, it was created by Satan through Men to deceive and destroy all. We can express our concerns and let them our feeling as Christians at the following links: Contact Them , Their Facebook Page (picture from their website)
