Active Christian since age 7, enjoyed a personal relationship with Christ. During mid-20s hung out at a community cultural center led by a gifted artist and "guru" of religious "truths", biblical prophecy, astrology, meditation. Came home one night and immediately felt intense pressure around me, a living, seething, overwhelming sense of PURE evil - supremely malevolent, angry, oppresive. Called friend who prayed with me, advised me to open my bible. Twenty minutes later everything lifted. Has never reoccured, but I'll never, ever forget it. Discontinued center visits which I believe opened me up to a spiritually unhealthy realm. Horrible as it was, Christ's presence in my life is as beautiful - a million times over! |
