Is it bad for Christians to use Satanic symbols?

The other day I went to a show and saw one of my favourite bands. Personally, I'm a Christian but I'm not sure if the band is even religious at all. However, on a lot of their merchandise they had a pentagram with a cat on it. I really wanted to buy something and support them so I ended up buying a shirt they had with said symbol on it. Obviously I don't want to let the shirt go to waste but I feel like it might be bad to wear it? I'd be wearing it because of the band, not the symbol

Its bad to have. Its bad to wear. What you did was not Christian-like.

Going to waste is the best thing for the shirt because nothing good can come from it.

the pentagram or pentacle is not satanic. It only be linked with it because of that selfish idiot Anton Levey who turned it upside down. The pentacle has been used by many groups in math, religion magic and even science. Christians once used it to represent the 5 wounds of christ and the 5 virtues of a knight.



Most bands use it for shock value.

When we wear clothes that advertise something it shows our support for things that God may deem to be an abomination..



Wearing something with a witchcraft symbol on it, when you are a Christian,brings demonic things with it, that you don't need, believe me.



Read James 1:5 and ask God next time whether you should be supportive of something that mocks God. So where does that leave your 'Christian faith '? If you unsure of whether you should be doing something unclean, remember that Jesus Christ goes with you wherever you go and whatever you do.

May be it is time you checked your taste in music and see how much of it is not of God ? And next time ?

... leave a donation and then it will be just between you and God...and be wise, not leaning on your own understanding, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.

Because you cannot serve both God and mammon.



psss.... the cat within the circle is also demonic, as it is meant to be..



My advice ? I would burn it and get it right out of my house, after all would you give it someone else with a curse on it ? Read Acts 19:19, for advice..

Wear something over the shirt. That way it won't be wasted. Pentagrams are used by a number of groups, not just Satanists.

when I accepted Christ I got rid of all that stuff.I listened to the music,wore the shirts and tried to live like they did.My conviction was so strong that I actually burned the tapes cd's and shirts
