We Landover Baptist's have about as much use for the Presbyterians, with their borrowed deranged writings of John Calvin, and all the "ecumenicism" crap they share with other "protestant" denominations, as we have for Satan himself.

We could say this is a case of we told you so - Harry Potter brings a resurgence of witchcraft, but it's also a case of chasing the demons out of one place and they wind up finding another home. Just look at a once good Christian woman like Taylor Swift - now endorsing socialist Democrats.

The fires of Hell are being stoked - and the only good thing you could say is it's probably keeping us from sinking into the next ice age.

Witches Outnumber Presbyterians in the US; Wicca, Paganism Growing 'Astronomically'
By Brandon Showalter, CP Reporter | Oct 10, 2018 8:27 AM

The population of self-identified witches has risen dramatically in the United States in recent decades, as interest in astrology and witchcraft practices have become increasingly mainstreamed.

While data is sparse, Quartz noted, the practice of witchcraft has grown significantly in recent decades; those who identify as witches has risen concurrently with the rise of the "witch aesthetic."

"While the U.S. government doesn't regularly collect detailed religious data, because of concerns that it may violate the separation of church and state, several organizations have tried to fill the data gap," Quartz reported.

"From 1990 to 2008, Trinity College in Connecticut ran three large, detailed religion surveys. Those have shown that Wicca grew tremendously over this period. From an estimated 8,000 Wiccans in 1990, they found there were about 340,000 practitioners in 2008. They also estimated there were around 340,000 Pagans in 2008."

Pew Research Center studied the issue in 2014, discovering that 0.4 percent of Americans, approximately 1 to 1.5 million people, identify as Wicca or Pagan, meaning their communities continue to experience significant growth.

. . .

"It makes sense that witchcraft and the occult would rise as society becomes increasingly postmodern. The rejection of Christianity has left a void that people, as inherently spiritual beings, will seek to fill," said author Julie Roys, formerly of Moody Radio, in comments emailed to The Christian Post Tuesday.

"Plus, Wicca has effectively repackaged witchcraft for millennial consumption. No longer is witchcraft and paganism satanic and demonic," she said, "it's a 'pre-Christian tradition' that promotes 'free thought' and 'understanding of earth and nature.'"

. . .

"As mainline Protestantism continues its devolution, the U.S. witch population is rising astronomically. There may now be more Americans who identify as practicing witches, 1.5 mil, than there are members of mainline Presbyterianism (PCUSA) 1.4 mil," she said Tuesday.

. . .

"The sad thing is that these millennials who are exploring the dark side of the supernatural have more faith and belief than most Christians. Because they are open and spiritually hungry, the spirit realm responds. The biggest hindrance to understanding the realities of the Spirit realm is unbelief," she emphasized.

Perhaps most infamously, months after the presidential inauguration a May 2017 editorial in the Los Angeles Times written by novelist Diana Wagman openly spoke of putting a curse on the president and encouraged others to cast similar spells in order to #BindTrump.

The Ladies of Landover have been praying against Satan and his patrons of the dark spirits for years, but it's true we need more prayer warriors. We need people like Karen Pence who is the Official Prayer Warrior of the Executive Branch of the United States Government, and people like Marguerite Perrin who can spot dark spirits a mile and a week away:

Witches Outnumber Presbyterians in the US; Wicca, Paganism Growing 'Astronomically'

And if some godless, liberal website had said that, they would have been laughed out of court!

How could it be in a country like the USA that Satan and His Minions could take such a hold of the people?

I put it to you that this is a sign of the End of Times! Like the wolves hunt the buffalo herd - first the weak and feeble, and then strengthen by that flesh, the wolves of liberal thought attack and feed upon the middle ranks (Pentecostals, Methodists, Anglicans) until all that stands between extinction of Christ's Message on earth will be the Citadel of Landover on the fields of Armageddon!

Surrounded by Demonic armies of the Storm Troopers of the Prince of Darkness, the Citadel of Landover will shine with diamonds and gold over the wastelands around. A few Jehovah's Witnesses will refuse to fight and their souls will be ripped from their bodies before the eyes of their loved ones! Mormons will defecate in their magic underwear! Quakers will attempt to "interpose themselves in a non-threatening manner" before countless numbers of Satan's advancing Brutes and will be consumed by Hellish Fires and the tramp of clawed feet! Their souls were always forfeit to Lucifer and now they are paying!

Across the desolation, arrayed on Seven Hills, the pope and cardinals will be watching with glee. Their yellow teeth will grin not only because of the flowing wine and chiorboys, their skeletal frames debauched by excess and corruption will shake with laughter as the innocent are destroyed. Like buzzards they sit and await the downfall of Christ's Church.

Meanwhile, in the Citadel, the congregation of Landover will not falter - steadfast in Faith and the Promise of Salvation, even women and children will show no doubt in their blue eyes and no fear will cross their fair faces.

The skies darken... the marching army's footfall shakes the land around. A growing, growling song of hate and abomination is heard...

It is now, at this last moment, like John Wayne and the Seventh Cavalry in that movie I saw, a trump will sound, the enemy will pause, uncertain... and Jesus will lead the Host of Heaven from the clouds and straight into battle with the dismayed foe!

His victory will be total! Eternity, for the Faithful, is assured! The Gates of the City will open to welcome Jesus in. Palm leaves will be strewn and this time there will be no shadow of Death in our Joy!







PS, That reminds me. I mentioned "gates" above: if you are having trouble opening the gates on the main parking lot, please phone a Pastor on Landover 3348.

I recall a Presbyterian church just a mile or so away from my home before I moved to Godless NYC. I rode my bike past it once and found a couple of weeks' worship programs outside on the ground. Both weeks were essentially the same, with the exception of hymns, which were changed. Variety is the spice of Presbyterianism, I suppose.


As I recall, the program went something like this:


DOXOLOGY
Hymn 293 "Great is Thy Faithfulness"
APOSTLE'S CREED
THE LORD'S PRAYER
Hymn 138 "Revive Us Again"
Collection of Offering
SERMON
BENEDICTION


Sounds like a rousing service. Why not just let the Holy Spirit lead?


It will be interesting to get a recount of Presbies vs. Witches after the witch hunt this year. I'm voting the population of Presbies will increase dramatically. Unless some are in both groups. It's possible.

As i heard, Witches are also outnumbering the White Catholics and the majority of Catholics now consists in Latino immigrants. At least true Christianity will survive somehow, even though i don't get why insted of praying to a Saint such as Saint Francis...





...they pray to statues of real Gods invented by Gerardo Giardiniere.

First off, I am proud that you are in the D.A.D.D.D. Anyways, kill the witches and LET THEM NO LONGER RISE. Shoot them without thinking. HALLOWEEN = HELLOWEEN.
