Now for all this good conversation!
Do You Need to be Saved to Go to Heaven?
I was saved about 25 years ago, and now I'm into witchcraft but falling away from Christianity as I'm not attending church and really not feeling or seeing any benefit from the religion. My question is, do you see it mandatory to be "saved" in order to go to heaven? Like when I said the words and got dunked, is this really needed? I'd like your opinion on this. Thanks 🙏🏼—Amy
Hi, Amy!
I won't lie, this question perplexes me—mostly because if you're going away from Christianity, it makes me wonder why you're putting any stock in the concept of salvation or getting into heaven to begin with. If the religion isn't for you, that's fine, but why are you still holding onto old fears and worries about it if you're no longer finding that this religion is for you?
Outside of that, though, I gotta give credit to my friend Father Kyle, who put it in a much more succinct way for us both: who does the saving? Us, by our actions and our faith, as a process we have to go through and "earn"? If so, again, why bother with a system you are finding that you no longer believe in?
Or is it God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit that save, regardless of whether we see ourselves as worthy of it or whether we fall away or not? If it's Them that does it, then They're doing it no matter what, and there's not really anything to worry about.
All in all, though, it would really help to ask yourself why you're still concerned with this if you're not trying to be a part of the faith anymore. What's holding you back from fully letting go?
How Did God Drag You Out of Your Old Day Job?
In a recent social media post, you mention that God led you out of a past career, to your current career of education, writing, and social media. I am interested in hearing more about how God led you through that journey, as I have recently been surprised with a similar request from God and I would love to hear another Christian witch's experience. Thank you! —Anonymous
Hi, there!
Boy, this is a story and a half, and I'm not even sure where to start telling it. However, what I can tell you is this: it was a hard lesson learned. I'll have to leave a lot of stuff vague and confidential for safety reasons, but I'll give you the gist of it.
Basically, way back in the day, I decided pretty early on that I wanted to be a writer. I would not compromise on that, even as everyone told me that it wasn't the most "secure" for getting a job (which... as we see the economy we're in now, nothing is secure, so I do feel I made the right choice in saying fuck it and just doing what I wanted from the jump). As I was getting my bachelor's, my dad put in a good word for me at his agency, where I started freelancing blogs here and there. It was literally like, maybe 5-10 hours a week, for like 11 bucks an hour, but it was technically "writing as a job," so it was something.
By time I graduated, I'd managed to work hard enough and build enough rapport with the department I was working with to turn it into a full time social media management job. It was stable, provided benefits, and it was for a good cause since the agency was in human services. I was pretty happy for a while, especially since I was able to still live at home while I worked and got my MFA. This job paid for my entire MFA since I didn't have any real bills yet, which made getting an apartment after the MFA that much easier. And my MFA itself felt like something I was divinely guided to, because it was at Emerson: a place I only knew about because my dad wanted to go there for music management once upon a time. When I opened the Emerson College page and saw that beautiful shade of purple (my favorite color, and an important liturgical color), as well as the most perfect program (Popular Fiction and Publishing), I knew I was going to Emerson. There was nowhere else I wanted to go.
And for a while, things were fine! Granted COVID-19 made a mess at everyone's job, and I had my hands full with basically both social media management and a quasi-PR situation for our clients, families, etc., but for the most part, the work was alright, and it gave me plenty of time to do my writing and live my life. It wasn't until I started querying my debut novel, The Glass Witch, that things started getting crazy, and that's because I was encouraged by an agent who was interested in my work (and later ghosted me) to start my own author social media. I did at the end of 2021, and since then, I've been applying what I learned at my old job to this one to make it work and build my online presence. I also discovered the wide open niche for Christian Witchcraft, and that a lot of people wanted to know more about what I knew, so it seemed like I had the perfect opportunity to build myself up in this space and offer insight and ideas.
What kicked my ass, and where God kicked my ass double, was in the workload, though.
In that transitional period between doing my 9 to 5 job and building up my social media presence, I had essentially taken on like, three jobs, with only one of them paying: the social media 9 to 5, my own social media, and writing/producing my books (as eventually I also decided to just self publish since these agents were continuously awful to work with). I was burning the candle from, like, three ends, and it just wasn't looking good. However, I wasn't really making any good income on my books, nor was my Patreon or any other social media actually holding up the way it is now, and my fiance was still looking for work thanks to the COVID-19 economic bust. I was the only one bringing any money in, so I couldn't just up and leave that job, even though I could feel myself getting more and more disenchanted with it the more I was trying to build up the work I was actually passionate about doing.
This is where that whole leap of faith concept really comes in. I was scared. I knew God was telling me (based on my readings and the general vibe I kept feeling hang over my head) that it was time to close a chapter out, and I even told Him I would leave the job at the end of 2022 (especially because my work environment had started getting really toxic anyway a la my department's leadership), but then I convinced myself if I just went under different management, I could stay burning that candle from three ends instead.
Nope. The change in management ended up putting me in an even worse department with even more micro management and office politics and bullshit. For going back on that promise with God, I ended up absolutely crippled emotionally and mentally. Managed to make it to the beginning of March before I couldn't handle it anymore and had to go on TDI for stress leave. Burned every bridge I ever built at that old job, too, and learned just how replaceable I really was (especially since they started using AI to write posts and blogs after feeding it all my work). It was a point where a lot of the ways I'd defined my self worth came crashing down, and I sat there in the shitter big time. Where I thought I could easily take all the time I then had to focus on my social media, I just found myself in bed for a good few weeks.
All I could do was trust that God was going to help my fiance and I out, and that we weren't going to crash and burn for this. We were sitting there on one very cobbled-together income of like, Patreon and tarot readings, and there was no end in sight to the job hunt on my fiance's side. It was probably the scariest time I've ever been in financially, and somehow, we managed to tighen our belts and pull through, with the help of God. He really said give me the wheel and let me drive, man, I'll tell ya.
And sure enough, once I gave up on trying to do things my way and finally called it quits, opportunities started opening up that I never expected: I met Mimi, my co-writer for Discovering Christian Witchcraft, I had the idea to turn my interviews with different spirits into a memoir of its own with Where the Gods Left Off, and my good friend from my bachelor's degree reached out with an opportunity for me as an adjunct professor: a part time, very laissez-faire job that became one of the most rewarding and fun things I've ever done, and that still gave me plenty of room to do my other social media and writing projects throughout the year (as well as changed schedule every semester, so I never got bored or felt stuffed into the same routine). And my fiance got a job in his field, too! Yay!
Now, listen, do I still work like hell? Absolutely. But it's work that I love, even when it gets heavy and stressful; it's work that makes me so excited, because I get to study, read, and write for a living—for real this time. Like, with the type of writing that makes me feel alive. (Granted, my fiction could always use a little more attention, but y'know.) I'm doing good things for people, I'm finding that thing I really want to commit my life to, and I've got God to thank for it: for showing me what I can do when I just let go and trust Him to open those doors for me. It's been such an incredible ride, really, and I can already feel it shifting again, as Mimi, Hannah (spirituali.tea), Lina (linathejesuswitch), and I all work together to create a proper, official ministry by and for Christian Witches.
Something is in the works again. God is pushing us all forward again. Where to, I don't know—and finally, I don't think I need to know. I just need to be ready to jump when He says jump.
Can I Work With [Deity] and God?
Can I work with god, Hekate and Oschun? —Ashley
Hey, Ashley!
As always, I'll tell you this: I'm not an authority on who you can work with. The only one that has the answers you seek are the gods themselves. Ask God. Ask Hekate. See about initiation and worship of Oschun. I've got nothing to do with this.
Who is the Holy Spirit?
Hi Sara! Opal here with another question. I experienced my first ever Pentecost celebration at Church last week and it was amazing. Following this and learning the story of Pentecost, my question is about the Holy Spirit: I have seen the description commonly to be "the third divine Person of the Trinity" and I feel so lost! I understand the aspect of Trinity itself, and I understand who God and Jesus are within that and how they are separated while still being the same. But who is the third "person" here? I feel like all the research and reading I am doing is just taking me in circles, and I am so confused! Thank you so much! :) —Opal
Hi, Opal!
This is a great question! I know I've had this discussion myself, because at first glance, it doesn't seem to entirely make sense, does it? God sends His Spirit... wouldn't His Spirit just be Him? Why is it separate?
And while we both understand the Son/Father dynamic, truth is, this where that whole "one God in three faces" thing gets tricky, because technically, we could say the same about Jesus. Jesus is God the Son; He's the Logos (the logic, the ration, the very basis) of God made manifest, made flesh. He's still a part of God! When it comes to the Spirit, therefore, it's a matter of applying this same logic. But when we read the mystical books, especially like Mark A. McIntosh's Mystical Theology, we see that the Holy Spirit acts less like an actual person and more of some kind of connective tissue between the Father and the Son, the one that makes all this alchemy of reconciliation possible. It's almost like the Holy Spirit, in that sense, is the mediator between them, the collective Unity made manifest.
We can also take a hint from this portion of the Nicene Creed:
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life,
who proceeds from the Father and the Son,
who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified,
who has spoken through the prophets.
(Emphasis mine on all of that.)
If I had to go off just these ideas alone, I would say that if Jesus is the Logos of God made flesh, then it almost seems like... the Holy Spirit is the pathos of God that is made flesh within us. It (she) is like the pulse of God, the one that wakes us up and brings us to life in full: the divine Life that bridges that gap between the knowledge of God and the love of God. Jesus calls the Holy Spirit our advocate, which He is to send after His death and resurrection (John 14:23-27):
23 Jesus replied, “Anyone who loves me will obey my teaching. My Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them. 24 Anyone who does not love me will not obey my teaching. These words you hear are not my own; they belong to the Father who sent me.
25 “All this I have spoken while still with you. 26 But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you. 27 Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.
It's almost like the Holy Spirit is an echo of the Logos in that way: a permanent fixture, a reminder, a cache. When one says they "have the Holy Spirit," it invokes this sense of having close not just the words of Christ, but the very essence and meaning of them, the innate recognition of their truth and their importance, like having the proper operating system for a computer to actually make everything work. This is why, in my own conversation with Her in When Angels & Demons Collude, the Holy Spirit really did feel more like the motherboard of God.
And of course, we still haven't touched on all the other places the Holy Spirit has been referenced both in early Christianity and in Judaism beforehand. Early Christians thought of the Holy Spirit as a feminine force, as Mother in the Trinity: the spiritual mother of Christ where Mary was the physical mother of Christ. Her name, Hagia Sophia (literally "Holy Wisdom"), has become a moniker known among Gnostics as her own goddess. Moreover, we see in Jewish apocrypha, in Proverbs 8, and in the Hebrew language, the way in which the Holy Spirit is almost treated like a daughter of God or the very indwelling of God. One example is in the Wisdom of Solomon, where Wisdom is described as a "kindly spirit"; another example is this bit here in Proverbs 8:22-23:
“The Lord brought me forth as the first of his works,
before his deeds of old;
I was formed long ages ago,
at the very beginning, when the world came to be.
In Judaism, the Holy Spirit isn't a person like Christianity has Her be in Trinitarian doctrine (Judaism is strictly monotheist and any concept of Trinity is in itself just incompatible with Judaism); this concept is instead translated as ruach ha-kodesh, which means something like breath of holiness; the other concept, Shekinah, is again not a person, but more the very awareness and feeling of God's presence among the people, among creation. This goes back to my connective tissue point from earlier, but frankly, it does seem that we have, in this Trinitarian mode of thinking in Christianity, essentially personified this connective tissue, this indwelling, this sense of God-among-creation, just as Jesus Himself is the very literal and physical manifestation/personification of the logic and Law of God.
That was a lot. But I do hope this gives at least a little insight.
Can I Still Worship God and Other Deities? How About Slovenian Magic Resources?
I actually have a few so bear with me here.
1) I’m pagan but grew up Serbian orthodox Christian. For along time I’ve felt disconnected to him and forged stronger connections with my deities and spirits. I have no intention of leaving my deities and spirits behind, but I do now that I’ve got a more independent understanding of Christianity outside of institution, I was wondering as a pagan could I still worship and build a connection with him?
2) I noticed you were also Slovenian and I’ve been wanting to connect with my roots and get more into cultural practices. So, if you are knowledgeable in that field and open, do you have any recommended resources or advice or things to share regarding Slovenian folk practices? —Karma
Ay, pozdrav, Karma!
As I said to our other friend earlier, it's really not my place to tell you what you can and can't do with other gods in your practice. Since you're coming from a more pagan lens, as well, rather than subscribing to standard Christian ethics ("no other gods before Me," all that), it's even more up in the air. What I can tell you from others' experiences as pagans who encounter and incorporate God the Son (Jesus) is that Jesus is really chill and will happily stand by all who need Him, whether or not they're Christian officially. God the Father (the one we all call God) is a little less popular to engage with in this way, but it can be done, from what I know. God the Son, though, is likely your best bet; historically, Jesus was the one always lumped in with a pagan culture's household gods before any widescale conversion happened. He's got experience with that kind of set-up lol.
As for sources, I sure do! My biggest tip is to check out the ethnographers of your chosen area. Whether Slovenian, Serbian, or really any ethnicity, there's bound to be university departments dedicated to ethnography (the study of all things that make up a people, like folklore, folk belief, etc.). In Slovenian ethnography, some big names I know are Mirjam Mencej and Saša Babič, who have written some really good books and papers on these kinds of things (like Styrian Witches in European Perspective for Mencej and "Charms in Slovenian Culture" for Babič). Other good sources are things like Vlasta Mlakar's Sacred Plants in Folk Medicine and Rituals. These are some really good specifically Slovenian sources that have such rich information on Slovenian folk magic (especially of the Catholic variety). F.S. Copeland's 1949 article, "Some Aspects of Slovene Folklore," also has good stuff more about mythology than anything, which, by the way—definitely read folktales. Folktales are where all the old pre-Chrisitan stuff hid and where you can glean some interesting tidbits from.
Can Christians Contact the Dead?
What is your opinion to contacting deceased people, for example, with the help of a medium or even yourself if you have the ability? The Bible states that this, like many other things, is something you should never do or is bad, but I personally never saw the harm. What do you think? —Anonymous
Hi, there!
Honestly, here's where people need to remember that the Bible is a broad book that stitches together the holy texts of two entirely separate religions. The "Old Testament" as Christians know it is actually the Jewish Bible, and Judaism has some specific prohibitons against contacting the dead for obvious reasons:
The dead were thought to be sleeping in the Jewish underworld, Sheol, as they waited for the Messiah and shouldn't be bothered (hence why the prophet Samuel is so annoyed when Saul has the Witch of En Dor drag his spirit up to chat)
The dead weren't any more knowledgeable about a topic than God, so you might as well just ask God. It's like asking WebMD for a diagnosis on a medical topic instead of just going to your doctor, y'know? Lots of people were trying to bother the dead for help on topics that they didn't know any more about than the people asking.
The methods of contacting the dead were often Canaanite practices like ov & yidoni, which were both super unsanitary and also pagan practices that the Israelites were meant to stop doing to make themselves a distinct people from those around them.
With all that said, again, this is the issue that lies within Judaism. Within Christianity, there's a little something that happens that makes Christianity pretty distinct from Judaism: the whole Death and Resurrection of Christ™ thing. In this situation, what happens is that Jesus actually defeats death; after His death, we see a bunch of prophets just rise from their tombs to go preach in the streets, and after His resurrection, that's it; the shackles of Death are broken. Nobody is dead anymore; all are alive in Christ.
This is a big deal. It's what makes the concept of "intercession of Saints" in Catholicism, Orthodoxy, Episcopal doctrine, etc. viable: if nobody is dead, then you can't "contact the dead." So your family that passed on are not dead; they're just in a different state of being, in a dimension and realm we cannot perceive with our physical eyes. You can still talk to them just like you would if you went to grandma's house for coffee. You can still pray for them, and ask them to pray for you. Anyone who wants to talk about necromancy and mediumship in the first place, in my opinion, is just outright missing the entire point of Jesus's death and resurrection.
How Do I Research Christian Witchcraft and Speak to Spirits?
How would I go about doing in depth research on Christian witchcraft and speak to these deities like you do? —Anonymous
Hello!
Is [Insert Other Study Bible] a Good One? Messianic Judaism Concerns?
Hi Sara! CT writing in again.
I kinda just have a simple question, and just want your opinion. I know you very often recommend the Jewish Study Bible & Jewish Annotated New Testament by the Oxford press, for very good reason!
My only issue is…they’re a little outside of my current budget lol. So when I was looking, I found The Complete Jewish Study Bible, Insights for Jews and Christians. It was more in my budget so I went with that one. (The HARDCOVER, I found for $23- imitation leather is a bit more expensive-)
It’s got the old and new testaments, and it has annotations and articles in it to try and give context to verses. And it even uses the Hebrew names for God, Jesus, the disciples, etc. The one thing I feel a little iffy about, is it’s really big in Messianic Judaism (which I refuse to comment on as a gentile- it’s not my place to open that can of worms-). I just wanna know your thoughts on this Bible in particular and if you recommend it. I did see it on Spirituali.tea’s reading list. —CT
Hi, CT!
Honestly, as long as you can verify that whoever was behind the notations of a study Bible is a proper, honest scholar and not some apologetic hack, you're good. Get a study Bible in your price point; it doesn't have to be the JSB and JANT!
However, let me say this really clearly: go ahead and comment on Messianic Judaism, because it's not Judaism. Jewish people will be the first to tell you that Messianic Judaism is just Christianity cosplaying as Judaism. The entire point of Judaism is that the Messiah is still to come, and the second you say "I'm Jewish and believe Jesus is the Messiah," guess what?
You're no longer Jewish. You are an apostate.
Christians have repeatedly done some dumbass bullshit to try and trick Jewish people into converting, from creating the Christian version of Kabbalah (Cabala) to inventing things like Messianic Judaism to confuse people (and justify Christians basically appropriating the hell out of Judaism when they have perfectly functional religious doctrine and tradition on their own).
But even then, those who want to live by Jewish law but still recognize Christ are also in trouble in Christianity, because that is an entire heresy known as "judaizing" (which sounds horrible on the surface level, because what the hell kind of term is that, but what it means is literally just encouraging especially gentile Christian converts to live according to Levitical law with circumcision and all that); Paul bit back hard at Peter and other Apostles in Galatians for trying to get Gentiles to live according to Jewish law as converts to Christianity. It's just not for us! That's their faith, their heritage, their practice—not ours! We got no business co-opting it!
Every way you slice it, "Messianic Judaism" is a sham. The last time anything like it was even remotely relevant or practiced was way back before Christians actually had a name for themselves: when the only "Christians" in any sense were the Jewish folks who followed Jesus's earthly ministry and believed in/witnessed His death and resurrection, and who were later disowned by Jewish people as, again, apostates. So if that study Bible you're looking at is heavily MJ, then... skip it, honestly.
What is the Difference Between Satan and Lucifer?
Hi Sara! I read all of your interviews with Lucifer, Satan and the Husk. But could you explain more about the difference between Lucifer and Satan? This was new knowledge for me because they are usually understand as the same being. Love the interviews, I can’t wait to get When Angels & Demons Collude. Greetings from Costa Rica! —Stephanie
Hey, Stephanie!
Solid question here. In truth, the way modern Christianity throws these terms around is a real headache, and it requires a lot of untangling to get to the bottom of. In essence, though, there's one big thing we need to know: both Lucifer and Satan are titles, not actual names.
In the case of Lucifer, this is a title that means "light bringer." It's a term that was rendered out of certain passages in the Bible, like the admonishing of Babylonian king, Nebuchadnezzar, in Isaiah 14:12:
How you have fallen from heaven,
morning star, son of the dawn!
You have been cast down to the earth,
you who once laid low the nations!
This isn't about any "devil" we now know of. It's about that Babylonian king, who was being a massive asshole to the Jewish folks that had been exiled to Babylon and was way too big for his britches in general. It's all basically prophetic poetry to describe how God is coming to bring His people out of exile and end their oppression.
Lucifer is known in several ways, therefore: as that title, meaning "light bringer," and also as a Roman personification of the planet Venus (the morning star); his Greek equivalent was Phosphorus. This planet was represented by this poetic figure/personification, usually as a young man bearing a torch, a light bearer. It also explains why Jesus is also referred to as the morning star in Revelation 22:16: Jesus is a source of light, of enlightenment.
In my personal UPG, the figure wearing the title Lucifer in the Infernal Divine is the angel Samael, the Poison of God who traditionally deals in the realm of God's severity in Kabalah (Geburah) and who some say is a fallen angel, others say is still an angel in heaven, all depending on what tradition and denomination you're looking at between Judaism and Christianity. Samael is already a great punisher under God's jurisdiction, but in my experience, his wearing the title Lucifer gives him more freedom to move unburdened in the infernal realms and do what he needs to do for humanity outside the constraints of the Name given to him as an angel ("Poison of God").
Now, Satan is also a title—specifically one meaning the Adversary ("ha-Shatan" in Hebrew). This also isn't any one specific angel typically; any angel can be a Satan to someone in the Bible and threaten to bring judgement down on them unless successfully defended by an opposing angel, an Advocate, to God (the ultimate Judge). However, even still, we see a specific entity being referred to as Satan in the Book of Job; it seems that eventually, one specific angel becomes the one to wear the title of Satan most often, and moreover, the concept of Satan has also become something egregoric, in that infernal practitioners will see Satan as its own entity and therefore its own god/personification/figure. In my conversation with the angel most often wearing the title Satan, I found it to be an angel named Tipherel: one of the sphere Tiferet, a sphere of beauty and balance between Geburah and Chesed (mercy), which is interesting.
Is Jesus Divine or Not?
Hi Sarah! You helped me through my initial deconstruction and setting me on this path, and I've been a Christian Witch for a couple years now. Now that I'm getting closer to God and learning more through direct experience, I'm starting to have questions about the divinity of Jesus and want to make sure my evangelical upbringing isn't clouding my judgement.
How should we interpret the gospels to best understand the nature of Jesus? Was He a prophet, powerful magician, a human like the rest of us with great wisdom, a divine being and part of the trinity, or something in between? I still feel compelled to follow His teachings and pursue a relationship with God, treating Jesus as a spiritual guide, but I'm trying to understand His place in my practice. Thank you! —Cynthia
Hey, Cynthia!
So, here's the thing: what defines a Christian for you? Because to me, holding the label Christian does mean that one believes Christ was Son of God and therefore fully divine, fully human. There isn't anything inherently evangelical about that; that's just standard Christian doctrine across all denominations since, like, forever.
My most obvious place to point, however, is the Gospel of John. It's such a mystical gospel, and it's one that makes a very interesting statement right from the jump (John 1:1-14):
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was with God in the beginning. 3 Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. 4 In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. 5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome[a] it.
6 There was a man sent from God whose name was John. 7 He came as a witness to testify concerning that light, so that through him all might believe. 8 He himself was not the light; he came only as a witness to the light.
9 The true light that gives light to everyone was coming into the world. 10 He was in the world, and though the world was made through him, the world did not recognize him. 11 He came to that which was his own, but his own did not receive him. 12 Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God— 13 children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband’s will, but born of God.
14 The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.
"The Word was with God, and was God... the Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us." In this Gospel, we find Jesus to be the very logos of God: the logic, the thought, the Word and the manifestation of the breath it was spoken with. Jesus is all God ever told us to do and be exemplified; it is through Jesus (the Word, the Logos) that all we know exists. However, that doesn't mean that we can't be like Jesus, or that His state of being is inaccessible; rather, as St. Paul goes on to describe Jesus as our "high priest" (Hebrews 5:10), and tells us that we are "co-heirs" (Romans 8:17), and especially when we cross reference just a touch with the Gnostic Gospel of Mary Magdalene, who also tells us that we are to become like Christ, then it is clear that we are to reach the status Jesus reached. We as the Church (the body of believers on earth) are His bride; and a man and bride are destined to become one in marriage. We are to reach that state of full humanity and full divinity through the grace of Christ.
Jesus is God the Son, and God the Son is an important piece of our reconciliation as humans to God the Father, through God the Spirit.
Is There an Infernal Civil War?
Is there like a type of civil war between certain infernal beings due to difference in opinions and views? This question has been on my mind for months and I would like to hear your point of view on the matter if you do not mind. —Anonymous
Hi!
This is a really fun idea for a book or a movie, but as far as I know, no. Demons don't really beef with each other like that, or with any other spirit, really (save maybe angels when the angels wanna mess with them, like Raphael with Asmodeus). Demons have their specific roles, functions, duties, and expertises, and they leave each other to their work.
