The Infernal Gospel
This is the best book I have read so far! It is the world's first & currently only Scriptures for Theistic Satanists! These Scriptures are designed to glorify Our Dark Lord & His Demons. It has advice on Renunciation, devotion, the 3 Infernal Sins, on summoning & working with Devils, gaining favor & status with Devils, obtaining Familiars, Unholy Days, magickal events; on black magick, divination, & necromancy; and even advice on Possession Rites! Only downfall is that it does not include any info on Black Mass or the usual Satanic Rites. But I'm sure you could take what's available from other sources & form a solid foundation using this. This has helped me tremendously form a solid foundation for my Satanic Witchcraft!

Unfortunately, a very common theme surrounding Satanism is that we are all cultists, unfortunately, this stigma cannot be avoided. Moreover, this stigma is perpetuated by the uneducated that sit amongst our ranks, those of us who pray with no knowledge or background of why we do so. No knowledge of the sacrifices our Lord Satan has made to make our worship meaningful. In this weakness, derision, hate, and cults thrive and poison the very heart of our community, taking the name of Lord Satan and other denizens of Hell and turning them into a mockery. The uneducated will be a never ending scourge on our noble religion, those who use depictions of the devil to justify the pain they cause others, to satisfy their desires though they hold no true faith.
I have seen no end to the struggle surrounding the uneducated in our midst, and I can only do so much to assist in educating those who choose to walk this path, without gatekeeping the entire religion as a whole. Though my concern is less the fact that people don’t know, as much as it is those who repeatedly show themselves to be dangerous to themselves and others in the community while proclaiming themselves to be spiritual leaders. I would like to say this before I continue, I am not a spiritual leader, I am not trying to be a spiritual leader, I am merely trying to be a guide to those who need a push in the right direction. More than once on this journey I have been asked in private about whether or not I believed myself to be of any special significance to the faith, that answer is wholeheartedly no.
In my time on this platform I have seen a slew of people declaring their intentions of becoming a spiritual leader without understanding what that truly means, the dedication it comes with, and the education it requires. The blind attempting to lead the blind so to speak. With all of that said, there is a stark and notable difference between someone who is aiming to guide, and someone who is looking for power. A guide walks among you, one with the group, sharing knowledge and calling out those who are doing harm from within, the power hungry walk with a confidence they have not earned, declaring themselves to be looking into your best interest, while spewing misinformation. They will talk constantly of the people that have come to them for guidance, “a 23 year old from (here), a 19 year old from (there), ect.” I have even seen people adding prayers to the end of their messages that include their own name as an authority, “Lord Satan, in the name of (person) I bid thee enter me…” These are the ones to watch out for. The ones who will lead you down a much more dangerous path than that of Satanism. These are the want to be cult leaders that will pull you off the path of Lord Satan’s grace and into a mire of uncertainty.
No one will ever know your craft better than you. No one will ever know your thoughts and feelings better than you. It is so important that we are critical of all information given to us and the people who give it. Pay attention to their intentions and make sure to step away when you feel as though someone is attempting to lead people astray or cause harm to a community who is already dwindling. Call out the people who are doing harm, calling themselves evil doers and whatnot, as they will poison the well of information that our community can provide. Call out those who refuse to acknowledge the facts in favor of a pretty truth. But most importantly, keep yourselves safe. Most of these people do not realize the harm that they do, and that isn't an excuse to allow them to continue to do it because they “mean well.”
I have faith in you all to continue down this path in a manner that aligns you with Lord Satan. I will always be here to guide those of you who struggle, but I will never ask you for any sort of devotion to me or this page.
May Lord Satan's light guide you even in the darkest of times!
Ave Satanas!
(Just thought I'd add a quick dot point summary for accessibility/accommodation purposes)
- Common misconception: Satanists often labeled as cultists.
- Stigma perpetuated by uninformed members in the community.
- Emphasis on the importance of knowledge and meaningful worship.
- Concern about uneducated members causing harm and posing as leaders.
- Distinction between genuine spiritual/religious guides and cult leaders/power-seekers.
- Encouragement to practice critical thinking and call out harmful intentions.
- Priority on community safety while maintaining faith in Satanism's path.
So something I struggle with as a former academic on this path is craving academic, evidence based texts that help give context to the different movements, thoughts, and ideas within the Satanist milieu. Many books are without citations or are outright wrong, and have a specific goal of turning a reader towards their way of thought and only their way of thought. On the other hand, many academic texts are not sympathetic to Satanists and promote outright propaganda against the milieu. They are not worshippers themselves or think negatively of practitioners.
So I was pleased that Per Faxneld and Johan Nilsson, both prominent historians of new religious movements and in particular those associated with Satanism, published this new book.
It’s very historical so I can’t recommend going into it and expecting to learn a new practice or prayer - but it provides historical context for how Satanist thought developed through the 1840s to the present. It neither persuades you for nor against it but merely provides actual evidence for how ideas came to be and who the source of those ideas are.
I’m about 3 chapters in and excited to read more. I’ll share more thoughts and learnings when finished!
