Satanic Church Co-founder And Leader Resigns After Experiencing The Love Of Christ.

 

"I have never known unconditional love in my whole life" - Riaan Swiegelaar

Riaan Swiegelaar, now former Reverend and co-founder of South African Satanic Church (SASC) withdrew from the satanic church body and dissolved his membership with the organization as a result of the immense love of Jesus he experienced. Though this surprising incident took place in May 2022, Swiegelaar shares his story more recently on Facebook, which has gained over 200,O00 views currently. He expresses how he received countless requests demanding why he left SASC, "To be very honest, I initially thought I would slip out the back door quietly and I didn't really think that people would be this interested in why I am doing what I'm doing."

Swiegelaar claimed to be once involved in christian ministry for 20 years before deciding he was an atheist. Completely broken, he got caught up in Satanism four years ago, "I got involved with Satanism because, at the time, it resonated with me, being very broken and sad without realizing it. I think the reason a lot of people resonate with Satanism is they come from a very broken place," he shared. "I have met thousands of Satanists over the last three years, and I'm not saying the intentions are bad; they are extremely broken and extremely hurt ... that's the one thing we all have in common."

Speaking about his choices and experience, Swiegelaar explained that he turned away from Satanism after experiencing unconditional Christian love. He spoke "I've never known unconditional love in my whole life and up to today, there's only four Christians in my whole life that have shown me what unconditional love is. I want to thank those four people. Words cannot express what you have done for me.

To show someone love is everything. It is not a simple thing. You have shown me everything. You have shown me the love of Christ. I have seen it in you," Swiegelaar said.

In May, Riaan Swiegelaar was invited on the CapeTalk Radio Station to give an interview on behalf of the SASC. During this interview, he had boldly declared that he didn't believe in Jesus nor that Jesus existed. After the interview, Riaan was approached by the interviewer who hugged him and held him in a way he had never been before "That's all she did. She just said it was nice to meet me in person."

Sweigelaar later found out through her status that she was a Christian, " I've never had a Christian do that, I've never experienced a Christian show that much love and acceptance unconditionally ... After I said the things I said, she did that. That stayed with me." 

A week after the interview, he was performing a Satanic ritual when he had an encounter with Jesus. He explained "He flooded me with the most beautiful love and energy and I recognized it immediately because that woman at the radio station showed it to me. That's how I recognized the love of Christ."

Due to his lifestyle decisions and homosexuality, Swiegelaar stated that he did not believe he was worth God's love. After his memorable encounter, he now has real conversations with God. He explained that the Kingdom of God is not a gated community, it is open to everybody.

Swiegelaar promised to share materials that he's written recently about his connection with Christ.
