Satanic Temple Unveils One-Ton Statute In Detroit As Supporters Chant "Hail Satan" -

Excerpt from this article:
"A Satanic organization unveiled a controversial bronze Baphomet
sculpture in Detroit just before midnight on Saturday, after trying in
vain to have it installed near a 10 Commandments monument in Oklahoma. Due to planned demonstrations, the group, which is opposed to
Bible-themed displays on government land, kept the location of the
unveiling of its 9-foot-tall monument secret until the last moment, when
it emailed the information to ticket holders."

The Bible Says:
"And
I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and
strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for
the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our
God day and night. And
they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their
testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death. Therefore rejoice, ye
heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth
and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath,
because he knoweth that he hath but a short time."
The Devil knows that he has only a short time until he is cast into the lake of fire.
Revelation 20:10 says:
"And
the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and
brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be
tormented day and night for ever and ever."
I'm
sure the Devil knows a lot of other things, but the knowledge that he
will soon be forever cast into hell must weigh heavily upon him.
But the Devil isn't the only one who has to be concerned about the lake of fire. The Demons also know that is what the future holds for them. James 2:19 says:
"Thou believest that their is one God. Thou doest well. The Devils also believe, and tremble!"
And
that lake of fire is the future dwelling place of every man and woman
who rejects Jesus Christ. Either our Lord Jesus paid for your sin on the
cross, or you are going to pay for your sin forever in hell!
"It's as if the sinner should say to the Lord in the day of judgment, 'Lord have mercy upon us.'
"It's as if the sinner should say to the Lord in the Day of Judgment, 'Have mercy on me.'
'Have
mercy upon you?' says God. 'No, I will have no mercy upon you. There
was a time when you might have had mercy without judgment, but now you
shall have judgment without mercy. Depart! Depart!'
If they should then beg and say, 'Lord, if we must depart, let it be from Thy throne of judgment, but not from Thee.'
'No,' says the Lord. 'Depart from me. Depart form my presence, which is joy. Depart, and go to hell!'
'Lord,' they say, 'seeing we must be gone, bless us before we go, that Thy blessing may be upon us.'
'Oh no,' says God, 'Go with a curse. Depart ye cursed.'
'Oh
Lord, if we must go from Thee, let us not go into the place of torment,
but appoint a place, if not of pleasure, then of ease.'
'No, depart into fire, burning and tormenting flames.'
'Oh Lord, if into fire, let it be only for a little while. For who can dwell in everlasting burning?'
'No! Neither you nor the fire shall know an end. Be gone into everlasting fire.'
'Lord, then let it be long before we go there.'
'No, depart immediately. The sentence shall be immediately put into execution.'
'Oh Lord, let us at least have good company who will pity us, though they cannot help us.'
'No,
you shall have none but the tormenting devils. Those whom you obeyed
when they were your tempters shall be with you as tormentors.'
What misery sin has brought on man to bring him to hear this dreadful doom."
