    I had like 24 month period of fighting a demon without knowing. As an agnostic. I was getting scratch marks in my sleep, so i cut my finger nails off all the way, it continued. When i was alone w animals they would gather around me and bark and cry, this happened in a few different homes. I was also starting to experience sleep paralysis along w extremely disturbing night terrors, didnt see any demons while paralyzed but i did feel an extreme amount of fear like i was in danger. I also felt completely drained no matter how much rest i got or how much i ate or worked out. Everything so far i kept brushing off being a man of logic and not superstitious at all. That all changed the night i took 3 tabs with some friends, the night ended early and i ended up home alone tripping. I went to the bathroom and when i came out thats where i saw it crouched directly across from me like a small gargoyle on my coat rack. He had a big wide grin with rows of shark like teeth and big black beating eyes, His head was bigger than his body, His body was tiny and weak with large feet and large sharp black claw toes. It had little and big horns on his big lightbulb shaped head. Now keep in mind you do not hallucinate this hard off 3 tabs, especially at the end of the trip. You would think off cid i would be freaking out but i was completely calm. I just starred and it starred back, after a few moments i had a flash flood of memories of all my disturbing dreams and he was watching me in the distance in all of them. I starred awhile longer before deciding to go outside for fresh air and a blunt. The next day i realized what i had seen and i decided not to tell anyone at first, i just brushed it off. I ended up telling my gf abt my sleep paralysis and she jokingly said Mexicans believe that means theres a demon on ur chest. Thats when everything hit me like a brick. Could it really be a demon? Luckily for me i had a good relationship with an older religious man. I decided to tell him everything that has been happening. He gives me simple advice, he said next time pray. As an AGNOSTIC i said to myself thats the best advice you got😂 fast forward and everything has gotten much worse and i felt i was loosing it, it went from disturbing dreams to disturbing thoughts. So on this one night i get sleep paralysis and its extra bad, felt like my ears were about to bleed and my teeth were going to break and out of desperation like a last resort i pray to God and instantaneously i feel everything lift off me. I will never forget what God did for me even when i abandoned him. This is obviously extremely condensed but the moral remains the same. Demons are real, Trust in God

      I had a ton of these experiences without ever doing any psychedelics except weed and amphetamines which are very mild psychedelics if at all.
      Yeah it's all real but I didn't pray to God for years unlike you and was tormented as a result.
      It came to a point of having 7-10 sleep paralyses a night and much worse than this, it's 2 am so I won't go into detail.
      Since turning to Jesus it's gotten much better, even if it happens I fear not, I just pray and feel rush of positive emotion even if I am still paralized.

    I've been clean from opiates and meth for almost 6 years but haven't ever really been able to kick the depression completely. I became obsessed with finding a way to be happy. I knew I did t want to go back to hard drugs but this past year found myself addicted to Kratom, exercise, vitamins, cutting out carbs, cutting out meat, and recently started listening to new age beliefs about frequencies, then started micro dosing mushrooms a few months ago, all the while sinking deeper into depression. I became angry with God and got deep enough into the new age to the point that 4 days ago I actually was saying out loud the Christianity was a scam and believing all the Christ Conciusness stuff. God is so merciful because it was like in one instant my eyes were just opened to how far I had come from the truth and I felt Jesus love all over again. I also found this channel at the same time and have been binge watching every video I can find.

The Lord is celebrating, and all the angels in heaven are as well. Dont stop going towards him . Get baptized in the name of jesus' and receive the Holy Spirit. Hes amazing and well guide your path.

All of it is fleeting, as in it's not long lasting. God however, His Holy Spirit provides so much joy, liberty, and the desire to live a fruitful life. You're on the right path friend, Christ is the Way, Truth, and the Life.

    Brother Joshua...wow, I feel your pain in your story. I was a heroin addict for 13 yrs, been on methadone and suboxone for 8. Yesterday was my last day of suboxone...please pray for me. I believe the Lord is guiding me and He's my only peace, my only hope, my only true love. Hes just so good. I'm so grateful He saved you and it's people like you that give others hope and get them seeking. Oddly this wasn't really my road to Him, I had a strange path to the Lord, but it doesn't really matter how we get to Him, as long as we do. God bless and keep you my brother.

      Hey thanks for sharing this…. I never meet people who know the experience of getting off of suboxone. I was obviously a heroin fentanyl addict then I got on methadone then subs then relapsed then methadone and subs. Until I detoxed
      From suboxone about a month and a half ago. It was rough but I found Jesus when I was withdrawing alone in my apartment. I was so alone and he filled this heavy void in me that made me feel so suicidal for
      So long… I don’t feel that anymore, I’m in love with Jesus and god. I may not know much but Jesus showed me reality . I’m not living in a false reality anymore like the guy said in the interview. You won’t regret getting off of subs I promise you can do it also for
      Some reason I bought activated charcoal it helped me detox a bit faster I think . It was about 3 weeks. But I did it I know you got this you can do too and everything will be okay. You’ll feel alright soon just stay strong and feel gods love for you and pray and ask god for help I promise you got
      This !! We do recover 🙏

    Edit: what you said about "it won't clean out the cup it'll just be clean time" I was clean for 4 years before I came to Christ and I just want to say that's one of the realest things ive ever heard. Sober or high I never found the peace I was looking for till I opened my heart to God.

    5 Ods on Fent, 2x I tried to take my life on meth. First time I nearly died was at the age of 16, I took an insane dose of opiates and dextromethorphan which landed me in the ICU for 3 days. 5 Rehabs, drug court. Run ins with the law, so many situations that should've turned out one way, but turned out in the Gods favor. Depravity and death were 2 things I was familiar with, so much so that I felt it trailing me everywhere. Jesus breaks all chains n shackles. He is truly worth serving and is deserving of all the praise.

      towards the very end of my addiction, i was too on fentanyl and DXM. i was taking them together, insane amounts of DXM, i was drinking bottles of it
      that was 5 years ago now that ive been clean. from the age of 16 or 17 all the way to 31 is how long my addiction lasted.
      i became christian around the middle of that time period. after finding Jesus i found hope, and that hope carried me through the rest of my addiction. i did not get clean after finding Christ (right away) but i did find a relationship with him which led me to sobriety. and about 6 years after becoming christian after one of the worst experiences of my life, i lost all my desire, all my cravings, and all possibilities of relapse or addiction. i knew i was done. i can't explain it but somehow through Jesus, God was able to turn me from a lost addict to a sober person. cant explain it, i lost my ability to use drugs, my desire, my cravings, all gone.
      i can't explain it, but to me it is the greatest miracle i could imagine. i never had a craving since, i am 100% unable to use drugs again, and i dont even need NA or AA meetings. i know that some people find that NA and AA helps them, but personally the way God blessed me, it's almost as if i've never tried drugs in the first place.
      it is truly amazing

    Man I love this channel and specifically this video so much. I want to ask something tho. So this guy mentioned secular musicians and how they used acid to help their creativity. But I think it’s deeper than that. It really seems like these artists, whether or not they are using drugs, they’re connecting with something outside of themselves. It’s almost as if the music they write is a deity unto itself and the artists are just channeling that energy in one way or another. I hear songs like “Friends In Low Places” and “Sympathy For The Devil” by two separate VERY accomplished musical acts. It’s hard to imagine a world where those songs don’t exist almost as if the music writes itself and the performer is just the instrument. I have read so many examples of these huge award winning artists who can’t even tell you the first part about how they wrote the song. They themselves don’t even know. I think Lucifer is very much alive in music. What is secular music all about? It’s about being boastful, like in rap. They use music as a means to get the spirit of Antichrist into every home possible. It started with people like Elvis. You ever notice how the theme of secular music went from sadness/the blues, rebellion/rock & roll, then to self glorification like you see in hip hop? It’s was all sequenced in the same order as Lucifer’s timeline. He felt a sense of injustice with the way God ordained his spiritual hierarchy. Then he organized a rebellion. Then he proclaimed himself as God. Listen to modern hip hop and notice the theme is almost always the same. It’s always “I’m better than you, your girlfriend would rather be with me, I’m so wealthy, you could never do things on my level.” It’s so boastful, exactly the way scripture describes the Antichrist to be. But they make it seem like harmless art. The question I have is how do we escape the effects of anti-Christian “art” and is there a way to glorify God through art better than Lucifer? Cuz I have never heard anyone say “let’s drop acid so we can be closer to Jesus and glorify him through our music”. Not that Jesus wants anyone using drugs but the fact that Satan has people doing it all the time just shows the true reach he has on the human spirit. As a 25 plus year musician I find myself questioning “does Jesus even want us competing with Lucifer or should we just avoid art altogether.”

    My son had a horrifying experience and it happened on Juneteenth of this year. I know this is also a day that makes some people think about negative thought toward white people. Someone gave him a very strange psychedelic, something that he doesn't usually use. I didn't realize this because he seemed fine when I left to go to get my blood drawn. Then I got a call from the sheriff. I rushed back to my apartment and found him sitting on the curb with the officer surrounding him, his eyes as big as saucers. He looked very traumatized and freaked out. He said he had visual and auditory experiences that were horrifying to him. Suddenly there was a Jamaican shaman that appeared on the other side of the small apartment, in the bathroom area. He said it was terrifying as this person began to talk to him in a strange and threatening way. He says the person was scary and large. My son began to pick up everything and throw it violently toward this entity that he was envisioning. I have a large collection of beautiful plants and he was throwing all of them, it was destroying everything in my apartment, computers electronics... everything also became covered with the dirt. I came home to find the biggest disaster I have ever seen. He was on the balcony screaming for help, and all my neighbors came out. It was absolutely horrible.

    That is a powerful story and I could identify with you all the way. The only concern I have with anything you said is the comment you made about AA, I know alot of people that found Jesus through AA, I myself found a deep connection with God and an understanding of Jesus too. You are correct, tho when you said that just going to meetings won't get you sober or bring peace, but if you work a twelve step program, then you will change. AA, and NA, is not for everyone , just like born again. Church isn't for everyone, but remember this brother , God is all things to all men. Jesus said the kingdom of heaven is within us and all around us, ots everywhere.
    Thank you so much for sharing your personal experience. It has definitely encouraged me greatly, and I've shared it with others, too.
    God bless you brother and keep fighting the good fight

    You're damn right they open portals! Not everyone should do these types of things. I dealt with this firsthand and it was crazy. BUT it was because I abused their properties... and was drinking alcohol in addition. Alcohol desecrates everything. These are not things to take together or to do for fun. Because I abused these things, I opened harmful portals. Luckily, it made me go sober and I was able to get them cleared from my home. It definitely took angelic forces.

    I totally understand as I struggle with addiction to heroin and have done for over 20 years I try my best to be the best version of myself I can be I work and maintain my habit and don’t hurt anyone. I keep seeing these videos saying unless you are a perfect Christian you will end up in hell regardless and it’s really been affecting my mental health to the point I nearly turned my back on the lord but I believe Jesus Christ knows we’re not perfect especially in this cold vicious world we’re living in today we’re you can’t help but sin just to be able to live. I had a terrible upbringing but I just pray that the lord sees my heart knows what’s in it and that I am a good person that has him in my heart and try’s my best and just pray that when my time comes he will accept me see the life of pain I’ve led down here and bless me with a pain free and happy eternity as opposed to banishing me to hell for struggling with addiction or because I live with an amazing woman but we don’t aren’t married yet we love each other hugely. I’d really love to hear other thoughts on this. Stay blessed and strong.

    • @almostfalse
      @almostfalse  Місяць тому

      There is no such thing as a perfect Christian. We all struggle and every single one of us falls short of the glory of God. We are justified by faith, not by works. However, your faith should lead you to live a holier life as you grow in relationship with God. You need to put Jesus above all else, and that means to do everything you can to get away from sinning. If you truly love God you'll try to stop the addiction and not justify it. Acknowledge your guilt and turn away from it. It's not about being perfect but it's about having your heart in the right place. Also, just get married. That will fix the other problem. Anyway I hope that this is encouraging to you. Pray continually and ask God to give you the strength to quit. He will give to to you, it's a promise in scripture (1 Corinthians 10:13). If you have any more questions please reach out to me on discord and I'll be happy to talk more with you. God bless you brother

    So I’m listening to this gentleman’s testimony and I am so happy that he found Jesus, so I decide to turn to Psalm 18, to which he referred several times. Reading it, all I can think is how much the “Lord” to whom David prays sounds like Leviathan rather than The Father to whom Jesus prays. Smoke in his nostrils, fire in his mouth, thick darkness under foot, hiding in darkness… does any of this sound like the merciful, loving Father of whom Jesus preaches? To me this sounds like a demonic dragon-like lesser god.
    I do believe in Jesus, and I believe him when he tells the Pharisees they are of their father, the devil. They were then and always have worshipped an evil god, not the true God of all things who is loving and merciful.

    I did the drug thing too, but it was abuse that got me sober. I drank and drugged to tolerate it, as I knew no difference. I turned my will and life over and found myself going with a friend to a AA meeting. I was hooked, they let me stay at open meetings, as I had used, but it was the codependency causing my life problems. I did not stay in Christianity, because Christ guided me elsewhere. We don't meed religion, quite the contrary, as it is division. It is the relationship we seek, and what keeps us on the right path. Christianity is actually Anti Christ, as he never wanted us to forget his bride, or "worship" him. He doesn't like that, it interferes with the relationship.

    I gotta tell this. I had been saved a little over 2 years ago. Before that, I was lost, and mushrooms having such good online reputation as being a mental life saver was still an option of help for me. Even after being saved, I was curious. So curious, I began studying and hunting them in there season. I had collected many. None of value for "tripping" except one specie. I was hesitant to do it, because the Holy Spirit was saying no, but at that time I wasn't good at discerning the spirit from wrong. I have since learn that quiet voice is the Helper. Anyway, the video of this man "I took psychedelics as a Christian" came into my feed. See, I was praying asking if it was okay, to please tell me. God will find you where you are. Since, I wasn't listening to being clearly told it wasn't okay, I believe he gave me that video to get through my thick skull. I watch all this guys interviews since then. Thanks for bringing him on, I think he has reached countless people like me.

Sees how we cause all of our problems. Becomes responsible for his wellbeing. Learns how to be a better person. Rids himself of the shame. Becomes friends with himself and more importantly with a real higher power. And grows up along the way. Please don’t speak about a Christian program that saves lives. Until you really understand what it is. The 12 steps where created by GOD FEARING MEN TO REACH IS KNUCKLE HEADS THAT WOULD NEVER STEP INTO A CHURCH.

    I was recommended members in a group to give shrooms a try. Of course I thought this guys were out of their minds, especially after hearing the horror stories from people who had bad trips after trying out shrooms. I was already addicted to opioids and trying to find ways to grow my own poppy plants which are rue base for growing d*pe but God made sure it never worked out for me. They would reach a certain point in growth but due afterwards

    So on k2 he watched his death and crossover. On heroin, he fell out or "nodded off" n if he would've died, then he would've experienced the full and final crossover.

      yessss you are right! its “reversed” either Bufotenin (5-ho-dmt), weaker tryptamine analogue, or 5-meo-dmt, or 5-HIAA which i doubt my bet is on Bufotentin!
