I have just been listening to Catholic Answers radio, the episode where exorcist Fr. Gary Thomas was interviewed and I was a bit worried about some of the stuff said on the show. They mentioned how dabbling in the Occult and New Age might open the door for demons to have an influence in your life even after you have stopped.
I dabbled in witchcraft, paganism, satanism for about two years in my early teens, and it even got to the point where a formal pact with the Evil One was made - renouncing God in favour of the devil.
I have not been baptised. The reason why I bring this up is because I know the Sacrament of Baptism has exorcism prayers attached to it.
What should I do? Could this have opened the door for something serious?
 
The Devil is a trickster, and is pure evil; one who should not be taken lightly - so the door that has been opened would be real, and serious. If you are serious about getting away from it all, get baptised - seek help and protection from God, Jesus and Archangel Michael.

You will be in my prayers, please help Archangel Michael.

maybe it could…but don’t panic!!!

go and see a priest and if you want to become a catholic ask about getting baptised etc and tell the priest what you did…he will know how to deal with it
 
Right, don’t stress about it, just do something about it. You’ve now turned towards Jesus, so keep going in that direction, because He is the only one who can liberate you from the past - His mercy, His power is greater than any depths of sin you have gone to. You need to pray and ask for the strength to keep going in the direction of Christ. Take the practical steps, get baptised, confess, receive Communion, Confirmation, explain everything to the priest, you will be saved from no matter what if you earnestly seek the Lord. Get going, come on, Christ is on your side so you are not alone.

PS - speaking from experience here, I was rescued from the depths of sin, the bottom of the barrel, I still am horrified at my past, but for some reason, God decided to rescue me from it and with minimal effort from myself, I have been freed.

In my early teens I have called angels ( I have heard that always are called devil angels)
That was wrong, I have confessed myself and I feel relief now.

Years ago I heard a pastor on TV who said he’d been involved in a coven when he was young. He wasn’t really serious, and his motive was simply sex. He’d been a young bloke with the corresponding sex drive, and he’d heard it was an easy way to get some. But, he said to the interviewer, “The things I saw happening there convinced me there was a devil, and if there was a devil, there was a God, and I’d better find him and quick!”

So he became a pastor, and went to the other extreme. Now I’m not advocating you do that, but I would suggest you confess to a priest if you haven’t already done so, and keep moving in the direction of the church. If you haven’t joined an RCIA program, then do so.

You’re not the first, and you won’t be the last. But it is important to do something about it.
 
Wolfpup, look to Blessed Bartolo Longo. He was an Italian who lived in the mid-1800’s and became a satanic “priest”. He eventually converted, became a Lay Dominican, and lived a very holy life. He was beatified by Pope John Paul II.
God Bless

Yes. This is one way to open oneself to Satan. I would suggest you read the book about Fr. Gary…The Rite. You will get a lot of information from it.

For a catholic, going to confession will close the door. But since you are not, my advise is to go to a priest and ask for advise.

If you read the book, there are saints that can help, and are mentioned in the book. May I cite, St. Gemma Galgani…ask for her intercession. And St. Michael the Archangel…if you have not, i suggest you learn the St. Michael prayer…memorize it and say it everyday. And then there is the human being feared most by demons…the Mother of God…the Virgin Mary. In the book, you will get to know why the rosary is an effective weapon against Satan and his minions.

Don’t worry too much about your ‘formal pact’ with the Devil. Like everything he does, it’s a lie, and he is pretty impotent now that we have the Christ. What matters is your relationship with Him. Get baptised, and rest assured that any power Satan had over you will be washed away forever.

Peace

Exactly and find a good spiritual advisor, learn the scriptures and prayers, and learn how to defend yourself on a spiritual level.

Confession and Communion cannot be understated in the CC. Theres so much protection here in a State of Grace.

Yes, the book is a wealth of information. Even the back of the book has more indepth information. Go to a priest, get baptized, and live a faithful Christian life. 🙂
 
Thank you all very much for your advice and help. Glad to hear that this is something that can be remedied by baptism and confession, now that I am commited fully to Christ.

well the important thing is, have you repented of doing this?

If you have, maybe do something like the Consecration to the Sacred Heart of Jesus… and pray to our Blessed Mother…

I would also recommend speaking with a good priest, - concerning how this kind of pact could be broken. I think it’s broken simply by repenting of it, and asking God to break it, and consecrating yourself to God, or getting baptized, etc… but I’d talk with a priest 🙂

in ANY case, God is stronger than this, and since you are no longer involved in these things, He has already brought you to Himself 🙂

God bless!

If you are to be baptized into the Catholic Church, confession will not first be necessary, as baptism takes away ALL sin, as well as the temporal punishment due to sin. In other words, baptism will truly be a clean slate!

My brother had a normal life before he messed about with this sort of stuff.

Something horrible told him our family (we all got on very well) would be destroyed.

Not only did he have nightmares about satan night after night, shortly afterwards there were a collection of rows in our family and it split badly.

20 years later and it isn’t back to what it was.

He needs to go to church and sort this out, funnily we spoke today about church and he said he hadn’t been for about 20 years.

Satan wants to destroy everything good and keep everybody away from God.
 
Wolfpup,
Code: 
     You are located in the UK, Right?    There is an Anglican Priest named  Fr. Fisher who  can help you.   He  went to the Vactican   with a woman  to testify for the process of canonzation of  St. Padre Pio.

    You need to have a priest devoted to deliverance to pray with you.  This along with confession, Holy Communion, and avoiding mortal sin will bring this controversy to an end.  

     As far as  the pact goes,  God who gave Man free will will never give Man the freedom to reject  free will.   At the moment of  true repentance, your  Soul is  restored to  Grace.   However, as a Catholic, we go to  Confession or the Sacrament of  Reconcillation because then you know for certain  your sin is forgiven.

   Seek help within the Church that is why Christ established Her.
