Just wanna add that the devil although powerful is very limited in his abilities. he can only be in one place at a time. he cannot read your mind. So if satan is on limited time. Why would he waste his time trying to corrupt a very small man such as your boyfriend whom seemingly has a deluded sense of reality as it is.. I think your guy is childish and looking for attention. Move on.. He is thwarted in his thinking. Christians do not stay with satan worshippers. Unless of course they really aren't christian..

No one can physically see the devil. However, we 'see' this being via his work. The New Testament Koine Greek word for him is diablos which is translated into English as slanderer. To 'slander' is to misrepresent someone. We hear it everyday and probably are not even aware of it...we may even approve of it.

Jessica get rid of this guy. He is living a life of utter rebellion against God. For you to stay with someone like this makes me wonder if you truly are saved. You are 23 yrs old. Grow up and move on. This guy is dangerous..

Yes, of course. I'm truly saved. I'm a nice clean pure girl. I'm already so tied up with him now, falling in love. What is someone to do if they already fell in love with someone like this? This is difficult.

My boy friend isn't a Satan worshipper. He saw something though, but it doesn't mean that he worships the Devil. He told me he doesn't. Yes, I am really a Christian and a really good one.

Why do you have to be so mean about this?

Be careful, you do not want to be unequally yoked with him and get dragged down by his dealings with the occult. I would ask the Lord if he approves of you being in this type of relationship

I know what you mean, but now I'm already too far into the relationship to want to end it. So I've decided that I just can't do it. I just don't want it to be a sin thats all. I will always do my best to stay right with the Lord even if my boy friend is Wiccan. How do you even ask the Lord if he approves of me being in this relationship?

I do not like how he blames the Lord for all the bad things that have happened to him in his life. Its not right to love someone like this is it? But why should I break up with my boy friend? I would still be in love with him even if we broke up. So if you love someone how is it going to be so easy to just break up with them like that?

Anyway I was hoping that I would be able to save him if I took him to church with me one day. He said he'd go. Do you think that this will help?

Very mean if you ask me. Totally uncalled for. Very judgmental statement.

Please everyone be nice. I was just concerned about what my boy friend said he saw and was seeing if anyone could help relieve my mind, because I'm really worried about my boy friend. I was also just asking for opinions on weather or not I should continue my relationship with him and what should I do, you know? Like how would God feel about this, but explain it in a nice, non judgmental way. It hurts my feelings. Now I don't think at this point in time I could possibly end my relationship with my boy friend or maybe even never. I was just seeing what everyone else would say about it. I'm a good clean, pure Christian girl and I'm very careful about all of the moves and steps that I take in life. I've always been that way. I'm not like a lot of these other bad girls you see around every day and my boy friend isn't even like a lot of guy's you'll ever see either. He may be Wiccan, but I feel that he has a good heart and sweet soul about him. He's just lost and needs to find his way back to God. He never condemns or harasses me about being a Christian. At least not like the last guy I was with anyway. He made fun of me and tried to convince me to believe that God wasn't the light. My now boy friend isn't that way and he did agree to go to church with me when I asked him.

Him agreeing to go to church is a good step in the right direction. As a former wiccan myself, the first step to where I am with the Lord now, was walking into a church.

BUT...Boyfriend needs to go not only for you, but for himself as well. he needs to go in with an open mind. (Keep in mind, he's not thinking he's going for God...If he turns out anything like Me, God will replace all else in time)
Before he walks into the church though. re-introduce him to the Bible (You said he used to attend church in his younger days). Maybe something or someone in his past turn him off of Christianity. Show him such passages as the parable of the Good Samaritan...Or how God Uses Non-Christians such as the Pharoah in Joseph's Story or even Pontius Pilate. Basicly Show him what You find so appealing about Christianity.

And be prepared to answer some questions for him!

Good luck!

Right, and my advice to you is not to end the relationship. Leaving him is not going to make matters better for him. Your influence could be what causes him to ultimately end up in God's kingdom. You have more influence now, as you would have if you are no longer his girlfriend. If you were deciding whether or not to go into a relationship with him, then I would say not to. This situation is different and you have the opportunity to help in the salvvation of the one you love. Try your best and by God's grace it will happen.

This should be less of a problem than you are allowing your feelings to make it. Peace comes from God and order comes from God. So rebuke the distress. It is not from God. You know that this man is Wiccan. You also love this man. If the love you have for Him is from God you are then also willing to do whatever is best for this man. That means you should be able to leave this man if God calls you to. Has He? If not, stay. The Holy Spirit is not some unclear, guess which way I am going, kind of thing. If you are saved you have the Holy Spirit which can easily direct you wherever you need to go. You know, the only thing you said that set off a red flag in my mind, was nothing to do with your boyfriend but everything to do with the statement, "I could never leave." God is number one. I have had feelings for someone I love from day one, but God has other plans. I am still her friend and would be broken inside watching her get married to another guy if it weren't for the fact that I love Jesus. When it comes to being in the right relationship, even with a Christian guy, it is not about your love or your desires, it is about God. If God wants you to be together, you need to follow God. If God wants you to be separated, you will destroy yourself by holding on. I would, at my level of maturity, stay with the a girl who was doing such things, she would need me there to influence her for the good, but would we get married without her being a born again believer? No. God is very clear. This life is temporary and there are many, many people and good things you have yet to do with your life. This man may be one of them, and might one day be who you are supposed to be with, but for now, ask God, listen to God, wait for the Holy Spirit to keep telling you what is true, and when it is clear, you need to pick the right emotions over the wrong ones. It is one thing to feel love toward someone, it is another thing to actually love them. Do not for the sake of your feelings justify incorrect behavior, such as sex outside of marriage, or anything like that. In the same way, you need to analyze your feelings and separate the right ones from the wrong ones, because it is far more important to be alone than with the wrong person, the person God does not want you with. It seems the problem you are having is you are letting your heart choose, instead of letting God choose, that is why you say, "I can never leave." If God were to call you away from him today with great clarity, could you? If you couldn't you are in the wrong place and far too close to the man. You follow God first, no matter what. I am not saying break up with the man, I am simply saying these things to spark your mind to wholesome thinking. I would stay with a girl doing this because I am mature enough to handle such things without being pulled down, but if God wanted me somewhere else, and to spend time on other things, I would. It is all a part of being who I am supposed to be. You do not know if you will save him and you cannot save him apart from God. Therefor, following God and God alone, rather than your feelings, is going to be how it has to be. If you do not know how to follow the Holy Spirit, simply start spending time alone with God, and listening for Him and reading the Bible. Wisdom will come as you ask for it in your life and you will be able to sense and know what is best. Once again, being in love with someone is not a license to ignore God. If you can honestly tell yourself you are trying your best to follow God and nothing else, and if you continue to do that, I can say you can pretty much live however you want with regard to the rest. But when it comes to relationships, it has to be what God wants. "Whoever is led by the Spirit of God is a child of God." We don't follow our hearts, we follow the Spirit of God. Whether God reveals to you to stay or not, do not let this man bring you down. Allowing this man to bring you down is not love, it is lust.

Thanks for all your help everyone, but we just broke up. Other then being Wiccan and seeing the devil. He doesn't truly love me anyway and wanted to leave me for another girl. So we're through and I dumped him.

I am sorry to hear that. I will be asking God to be powerful in your life. was deeply attached to someone God had told me wasn't the person for me. It was hard but I had to go through it. I did love her. I have gone through a heart break for seven years now and God has always been with me through the pain breathing physically hot breaths of peace on my skin to comfort me and let me know the future will be very good. I wish the same goodness for you and I will say, if you want to be great in this life, seek wisdom and ask God for all spiritual wisdom. "Wisdom is supreme." It will be happy to meet in heaven. :)

Sure, everyone can see the devil, but most humans aren't emotionally or spiritually strong enough to see him/her. Anyone who looks in the mirror can see the devil. Those who are physically blind can be made to understand who the devil is by verbal teaching. The problem is, the devil's real identity is hidden from the relgious organizations who only accept the literal understanding of the Bible as legitimate, even though Jesus Himself gave us a hint in His usual symbolic language in Mark 8:33.

My boy friend says he saw the Devil and speaks really serious about it, but I kind of think he was only dreaming or hallucinating. He said he wished for immortality. He wanted it really bad. He also used to study witch craft and stuff like that, which is of course bad and it concerns me. He said he isn't that bad at it like he used to though. Anyway if its true that some people really saw God, which I've heard people have, then it must be true that people can see the Devil right? So this is starting to scare me. I do believe that spirits, angels and demons exist and he said an Angel appeared and made the Devil go away. Do you really think that he saw the Devil or that it was just a dream or hallucination?

I'm also really worried for him now. He seems to be confused about God and all. He's a really good person though. Please pray for him, because he's been going through a lot of creepy stuff like this. I asked him if he will go to church with me one day and he said he would. He doesn't have anything against me being a Christian or anything either.
By "the Devil", are you talking about Satan himself, or demons? If you are talking about demons, I'm sure you have seen pictures of them. They are also known as "grays". There are no extra-terrestrials. Those little skinny gray creatures with the small mouths and big eyes are actually demons, just like the ones who whisper in your ears. The space ships they fly are built by Satan and come out of the depths of the Earth, Their purpose - to create doubt and confusion.

urf...that's tough. Are you holding up okay?

I would recommend starting to allow yourself to feel Jesus' all abiding all encompassing love for you. Wrap yourself up in him and rest in the peace and the knowledge that you are loved by our creator, and the creator of this vast amazing universe.
