The following report is by ABC 15 News:
Christmas decorations are back in the Capitol Rotunda in Springfield, Illinois for the holiday season.
The Satanic Temple of Illinois showcased a satanic display at the Capitol Rotunda on Monday.
It was set up next to a Christmas tree, Nativity scene, and a menorah.
This year’s display has a crocheted snake wrapped around apples and a book.
It was set up next to a Nativity scene and a menorah.
In years past, the Satanic Temple’s Illinois has displayed a hand holding an apple with a serpent wrapped around the wrist, and the deity Baphomet as a baby.
The goal of the display was to bring attention to the controversy of banned books this year.
The organization also spoke about being proud of its religion.
More importantly, being comfortable with being who we are as ourselves no matter who we are we all come from diverse backgrounds and many of us are ostracized just for being ourselves being a satanist is declaring yeah we are and we are happy about who we are.
Minister Adam, co-congregation head of the Satanic Temple of Illinois, said
This is the third year they have put up a display.

The sacrifice of the wicked is abomination: how much more, when he bringeth it with a wicked mind?
Proverbs 21:27
Wow, what a ‘profound’ statement they have made (sarcasm).
Once again these types of nefarious acts, as childish and adolescent as they may be, represent how far this country has fallen to the point where the people are totally willing to tolerate it.
[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).

It has almost become a crime to hurt other people’s feelings it seems…
Because the wicked want to defend other wicked. I bet if I was there with a King James Bible speaking out against this after I learn more scripture, Springfield PD would be there in minutes and I’d be arrested, booked, and thrown in a cell until the next morning.
The scary part is that when they release/throw me out of jail, the guard will throw by Bible at me with contempt and say “don’t forget this!”
Well, I don’t care what those satanists’ do. We as saved children of God should know that their attempt (feeble at best) is made to Christians mad and to show outrage. Just ignore them, you are telling them we could care less because we know the Truth, the more you push back at them, makes them happy, soooo don’t even iKnowledge them.
David A. Is ignoring a growing problem going to make it go away, or be of lesser effect??
I remember reading about the Prophet Jeremiah speaking up against the abominations in Judah, & after the King of Babylon had invaded & conquered Judah, what happened to Jeremiah?
Read Jeremiah 39:11-12
