Did he, or any else, ever hear us pretend to own another Light, then in the Phrases, and from the Scriptures before mentioned? I am assured they did not: And though I deny his Imputation, yet what if I, or any Quaker on Earth, or all of them, had acted injuriously to him, or any man; must that blessed Light, we say is given of God and more then pretend we are guided by be villified for our Failings? Nor is it less then wretched Blasphemy, for any to say, That because S. If I understand him, or his words, this is the genuine and true construction of them.
But trouble and remorse of spirit ever was, and ever will be the Portion of such as rebel against it.

Jon was released to a halfway house after he had served his sentence. In so doing, he knowingly broke the law. He only had a few weeks to go but apparently could not wait to leave and had no intention of adhering to any probation rules. He managed, with his resourcefulness, to obtain a canister of potassium cyanide, a highly poisonous substance. A few weeks later, the police found out where he was staying, and attempted to arrest him.
Rather than go back to jail, he ingested some of the poison, dying almost instantly, his body falling down the stairs. Unbeknownst to me, that was the purpose of the poison. He was depressed before he was incarcerated, but his years in jail greatly magnified it. His body was taken to a hospital and hooked up to various medical apparatuses intended to keep his body alive. Gradually, the shock wore off, replaced by the full weight of grief and fierce rage over his tragic death. Resuming my occultic activities with a vengeance i. Ouija boards, seances, channeling demons, demonology, reading occult literature, demonic manifestations and phenomena , I funneled my energies into a deeper exploration of the demonic realm in order to achieve a cathartic release through supernaturally punishing and destroying those I hated, especially Christians.
In order access my demonic powers, and even though I was grief-stricken, I rarely resorted to alcohol to relieve some of the intense emotional pressure churning within.
There were only a few healings due to the fact that those I knew did not feel comfortable with me doing so. Once, I contracted food poisoning after mistakenly eating spoiled meat, and after doing so, was on the verge of vomiting, but instantly healed myself and suffered no ill effects thereafter. Also, I was very skilled with the Ouija board, and could often discern what the spirit was going to say before it was said. I chose to use it often, even though I could telepathically communicate with any spirit that I so chose.
The first few times, before I became confident, it was necessary for me to use it with one of my friends. In one of those instances my friend gave me a black light bulb to insert in my lamp. With the black light the only source of illumination in the room, I contacted a particular demon and, during our conversation, the spirit turned out the light. That was the real beginning of my success with the Ouija board, all other attempts when I was younger failed.
Jason, my best friend, and ironically a Christian, participated in seances in which I would call up the demon of my choosing to manifest through me and speak to him and answer his questions.

He forcefully, and with a great surge of power, entered my body. My lust for power was causing me to stand on ever-thinning ice. There was a lot of demonic activity in my apartment. This included such things as cold spots, gentle breezes with windows closed, temperature drops, shadowy apparitions and various odors. Also, we were bitten, pinched and touched by unseen spirits at times. My place became a haven for many demons of various kinds arriving from the surrounding areas and beyond; usually exuding their evil presence at night.
It turned out that Jason met a woman online from Canada who he ended up marrying. That was one reason, though certainly not the only, that he turned his back on me, permanently ending our friendship. My other friend, who had participated in a lot of my occult activities and experienced a number of supernatural manifestations with me, suddenly cut off with me too.
That, in conjunction with my brothers death, through me into a major mental and emotional tailspin. It took a large amount of energy to keep myself in check. I made the decision to purchase a gun and go on a murderous rampage, killing as many as possible before being killed. I attempted to buy a handgun through the legal route, but was unsuccessful due to my FBI record. I was guilty on all counts but the charges were summarily dropped and was never convicted due to the loving providence of God, otherwise I would be rotting in a federal penitentiary right now.
Wanting to glorify Satan in my killing spree, I received two tattoos from a professional tattoo artist.

One was of an inverted pentagram on the palm of my left hand. The second one is a picture of Baphomet, a widely used Satanic symbol by Eliphas Levi, who is considered one of the master occultists of all time.

After much consideration, I decided to murder a mass of people and go out in a blaze of glory rather than expend a great amount of energy in evading the inevitable capture as others have done. Adding to that was my latent bloodlust, magnified by my fascination with vampires and vampirism. I strongly desired to shed the blood of others, not so much to ingest it. At that time, I did not realize that the spirits I talked to were really demons masquerading as departed human beings, even having the gall to imitate my brother.
Fortunately, God used all of those painful and traumatic events to penetrate my black, rebellious heart with His Truth. Over the next few weeks, I considered the fate of my eternal soul. Realizing that if I died, I would go straight to Hell and it would definitely not be enjoyable nor would I rule with Satan for the rest of eternity. Instead, I knew it would be an agony of such magnitude that it would make all of the painful experiences of my life rolled into one pale in comparison in just the first moments of an eternity of absolute and utter separation from God!

Even though those thoughts filled me with fear, I stubbornly refused to turn my life over to God. It turns out that in my attempt to acquire a gun through the black market my life was threatened at gunpoint. They were just looking for money so they could get high. That was my breaking point. Having no money, I lied and told him I would get it so that he could come back later and collect it. But, much to her credit, she stood by me. I stayed with her for a few weeks seriously contemplating Heaven and Hell and other serious spiritual issues.
In that time, God softened my heart, revealing my need to fully commit my life to Him. In His mercy, having no one else to turn to, He revealed to me that He was my only hope. After talking to him, without any prompting from him, I decided to completely surrender my life to Jesus Christ. After arriving at the condo of this Christian friend and his two roommates, I revealed my involvement in hard-core Satanism, sharing some of my occultic activities, and expressed my desire to fully commit my life to Jesus Christ.
Feeling unprepared, they brought in two reinforcements. The demons manifested in a rage, injuring one who attempted to restrain it. However, after much effort I was eventually able to say the name of Jesus Christ, asking Him to forgive all of my sins, come into my heart and make me a new creation. Both of these books balance daintily on the line. I used to be very introverted and thought negatively about myself a lot — thinking I had no friends, people hated me, etc.
Liz Kessler , author of Read Me Like A Book If I am going through a difficult time, there is one book that will always help me to put my situation into context: This book was written by a man who dictated it, literally one letter at a time, by blinking. Bauby had suffered a massive stroke and his left eyelid was the only part of his body that he could move.
When I think of, or re-read, this book, I cannot help thinking that if someone in his position could produce a piece of work as beautiful as this, nothing is really as bad as it seems. Safah, site member Louder than Words by Laura Jarratt. And one sent to me by the Guardian so thank you so much for that! Opening its pages is like sitting down to a cup of tea and a chat with Celaena.

I will not be afraid. Ellam25, site member I straight away wanted to put forward the book that has helped me through so many times when I have just felt lonely or down. Just reading bits of this book makes me realise that there are people around me who help and encourage me even without noticing, on a day that I feel alone or down.
It showed that you could write about justice in a beautiful, lyrical, mythic style. TheBookAddictedGirl, teen blogger I think there have been three books that saved my life. The first was Harry Potter, because it made my life magical. I was seven when I read the first book, already a pretty magic time, but as I got older, I continued to read the series and live in this magical world and my imagination just Harry, Ron, Hermione and Hogwarts got me through a lot — fall-outs with friends, the move to high school, going into the wheelchair, being ill, growing up, feeling alone, GCSEs And best friends are always there for you, there to save your life.
Harry Potter gave me my imagination, gave me my daydreaming power and sparked many of my ideas. And so it just keeps saving me. I also began reading Twilight about when I became wheelchair bound and the pure escapism the series provided really helped me.

I moved past Twilight a long time ago now, but I still think that it was the series that got me through a hard time and also got me hooked onto paranormal YA books. The final book that saved me was Before I Die. This was the original YA heart-breaker, before Hazel and Augustus were written down on paper and into our hearts. Before I Die remined me how precious life is and how lucky I am.
Yes, it broke my heart so badly I cried for days, but it also made me smile and laugh and love. And, really, is there any better life-saving book than that?
