Hey, I feel like a total hypocrite, hehe, I gave my heart to Christ a few months ago at a local charismatic church...I never wanted to go because at the time I was Wiccan and really despised most Christians and God. But because a really close friend invited me I went. I remember looking around me and hating them because they were so damn ignorant, dancing around and talking in tongues (I actually laughed out loud when they started praying in tongues) but that day something happened, Im not sure why but I listened to Ps At talking about how people portray Jesus as a wuss when in reality he is so powerful and strong. In truth only one line stuck with me "Jesus is not some guy with long hair dancing around with the butterflies, he is a warrior" so when they asked people to give their hearts to Jesus I found myself going to the front. It went great for a month, I felt peaceful and loved and all that but then things went screwy. God started working in my life, trying to heal me so that he can actually use me but I didn't want to get healed, it was just to painful...so I started to backslide into my old lifestyle. And now I'm here, I would really like for you to pray for me...I want God in my life and I know I have to allow him to heal me so...pray that I wont back out again because I'm scared, pray that he will give me strength...please.

Hi, My name is Jeremy and I'm from Kokomo, IN and this is my testimony of how I came to know my Lord & Savior Jesus Christ. I took my first venture into liking music when I was 16 years old I bought my first Marilyn Manson cds I eventually got all of them. I worshipped him and was under his evil trance I even met him and his band in 2000. I continued down my road of darkness when in 2000 I graduated high school and my mother bought me my first guitar for a graduation present of course I learned every Marilyn Manson song there was. It only took me about a year and then I moved to Indianapolis, IN where I met with another like minded musician and we formed a band and drank and did drugs daily.

I eventually met up with this woman that was way older than I and started a relationship with her and I quit the band I was in and then we moved in together and moved to Kokomo, IN and we eventually broke up and I got my own place in the winter. I got a roomate and a job at wal- mart . My roommate and his girlfriend eventually introduced me to somebody else that worked at wal- mart and that was my soon to be wife Jennifer. We started dating and by the summer of 2004 we moved in together. She and her friends started witnessing to me and I even started going to church to try it out I was hearing God's word on a daily basis. She knew I was into heavy music so she started introducing me to groups like Skillet, Thousand Foot Krutch, DC Talk, & the one that became my favorite Demon Hunter.

One day she did a search for Goth Christians and the godscare website popped up and she told me to check it out. I did i started talking to all these cool people on the forums and I saw the sinners prayer on the message board. By this time God had been trying to sway me towards his direction for awhile. Finally one winter morning before Church I printed off the sinners prayer from the godscare site from my computer and went to church. Right in the middle of the sermon I got up and walked out to my wifes car in the snow I talked to God for atleast 40 minutes I asked him to forgive me of my past sins and then I pulled out the paper and read the sinners prayer out loud. And I was saved it was the most wonderful feeling I have ever had knowing that I'm going to Heaven and that God loves me.

Friends I must tell you that if you don't have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ you are missing out . Please get saved, get a Bible, & Go to Church. If it was not for these wonderful people and this website I would not be where I am today and I want to personally thank the Godscare staff from the bottom of my heart. Today I'm a happily married Christian Man with a wife and two beautiful children. If any of the lost are reading this I am praying for you make the right decision in your heart to follow Jesus Christ it's so easy. Just look inside your heart he's already there. Remember he died for our sins up on a cross in pain and agony and you know what if there was only one person in this world Jesus would've said it was worth it. Remember God Loves you and The Only Route is Christ.

Sincerely,
Your Friend
Jeremy

I need to rededicate myself to the Lord and let go of a few sinful situations in my life before they totaly destroy me. I WANT/NEED to be back stronger in God's will than ever before. I can't live like this anymore. I want to be a clean/healthy vessel that the Lord could use. Please help me. I need prayer support. I also need to lose 35pounds due to health reasons, and I had started smoking cigaretts, and drinking while divorced and involved with this soul tie..I need prayer support, and all good biblical advice...Thankyou, and God Bless

Hello my name is Ruth and i am from Australia. I am glad i found this site i am able to be who i am and not have to hide who i am which i feel i have to do a lot of the time. I know i am not perfect and will never be but i try to be more like Jesus every day which i find really hard too do.
In my past i have tried Weegie board while i was in high school that was back in 1997, i also tried seeking a fortune tellers advice which i seem to keep doing from time to time . I know it is wrong to do and i know i should not do it. I have Jesus as my Lord and Saviour But i feel like i am always in a dark place. NOT being able to trust people especially those in my family as i have been hurt a lot by them. which makes me hate myself even more as no matter what i have been through in life i am suppose to forget and forgive those that have harmed me but i still keep getting emotionally abused by people. I had it at school, with family and with friends which has stopped me to trust in people I 100% trust in Jesus and my husband and a few other people in my family but as for most of them i would not trust them i do not feel that i can they keep doing this stuff to me and do not even know they do it or do not care they do it. to them its fun and games i do not know what to think of my family but i know a few people who are suppose to love me and be truthful to me are not. they pretend to be something they are not and hide behind a mask which they do not show to other members. anyways i need prayer for healing and aslo to be able to find a job for traineeship in administration and for my life to go according to Gods plans not my own. I feel that due to what i have been through i am limiting God and his plans for my life. I do not want to do that. i could ad so much more in here but that will do for now. THANK U AND GOD BLESS U.

I love the site, but I still have not navigated all of it entirely.. I've learned alot though, especially from reading the testimonies of the well know rock musicians, since I am a gothic rock fan myself..

anyways, I the jukebox on the side of the page, the interactive one that continuously plays music.. well, I know this may sound trivial but I'd like to know who sings the wonderful Cure/Faith and the Muse sounding song with the chorus "Every day I pray for better things to come" I think that's the chorus. Anyways, it's such a beautiful and ethereal sounding song.. Better yet do you have a playlist of the songs that are played on the jukebox??

Thanks, by the way this site is by far the best christian rock site on the net ever!

I was just at your site and I would like prayer. I have been reading christian books about other religions and the occult. A lot of the information was about demons and deliverance, and I've worried myself. I am a christian. But I am wondering if a christian could be possesed or oppressed by demons and not know it? And how would I know if I was or not? Would I just know if I was?

I want to thank you for your site, I appreciate people being different because I have always been different myself. I was teased in school because I didn't hang around all the accepted groups, I have always been a friend to those who were different and because of this I was shunned by most people myself. But when I got married, I married a man who looked down on different and he caused me to change and look down my nose for years. I was not the same person I was when I was a teen-ager. I became this goody-two-shoes christian. Finally, God brought me back to reality and I went back to my roots. Well, my husband couldn't take the difference so he left me, which to me was a good thing, because we didn't have a marraige anyway. I married him just to get away from my mother. When I began to seek the Lord again, because I had slipped awaw from him, I became under spiritual attack. It has gotten progressively worse. The devil does not want me to live for God so he has brought out every gun that he has. I need prayer really bad I want to know how to overcome all this evil attacks because it is affecting my life, I can't keep a job and I can't get out of debt or get my life together because of it. Please help. If you could contact me personally and talk with me about this and pray with me I would appreciate it. Sincerely, Pam Fant.

I just browsed through your entire site - it is so awesome! I love it - it's very evident that you have spent countless hours working on your site. It's wonderful. I can imagine that you have tons of people frequenting your site because it's so complete, it's interactive, and it's put together with excellence. I appreciate that you don't "Christianize" it to the point of chasing people away.

I'm a middle-aged mom, I'm not goth... but I love goths and have ministered to goths in the past. I moved away from the city and find myself in a situation that I have no outlet for ministry of that kind. I miss it. Some of my best memories of ministry are with goths. Anyway, I noticed on your links that you list MASH - that was my ministry! I'm the late founder of MASH! Thanks for supporting MASH. It's no longer, RIP. A couple of years ago God told me to "let it die", in his exact words. I fought that, and tried to find someone to pass the torch to, but God kept telling me to let it die. I finally gave in and did what he said...that's when he birthed a new ministry through me. My new ministry is called Ugly Girl. It's a ministry to cutters. I don't have my own website, but there's a link to my Ugly Girl page on www.gothpunk.org . There's a large population of cutters and S.I.'s in the goth culture. I would love if you could link my page on your site.

Thank you for doing your site and your minsitry. Your website is excellent. Very artistic and well planned.

First of all, I would like to say thank you to help find back God again. Its good to be back after three years without him its been very unpleasent. This website gave me in a real information this time round (not like a youth club i went to.) Anyway 12:48am and Im with The Lord again. I just want to say thank you for that.

I think what you are doing is a beautiful thing. I was saved when I was three. I noticed that I was goth when I went to college last year. I started to feel the need to be connected through the culture. I am in a band that is about to go fairly big. We have tons of resources that I would love to bless you with for free. However, I am in Colorado. I have several recording studios, venues for you to play, free artistry (that inclues paintings), web design, and promotions from our group. I am currently working on creating a super goth site. It will host every goth site in the world. It is very necessary with all that has been happening. I have unlimited space and unlimited viewing per page. It has a lot of stuff that I need to finish. I love what you are doing for the scene. You can visit my websites that are not working when I sent you the next email. I need to know if you are interested in getting together to use our resouces for the kingdom of God. I really am glad to see goths working for the Lord. Be careful that you do not preach on stage but only through your life to goths. It will be the only way of redemption. If you like gothic music check out http://www.godcore.com . Click on music, list all bands. Then at the top they can be sorted by category. Sort by genre. Click on Saviour Machine, Vic Mendoza. They are great goth bands that are hard at work for God. Also on Saviour Machine's website go to links. Then go to bands. Click on Vigin Black. Awesome goth band. If you really want to know the culture you can get a full report that I have done. I am currently searching all goth websites to find out about the culture that I have been studing for atleast a year now. Thank you for your existance. Covered in BLOOD!!!!!!!!!!

so, it's about 3 AM and i stumbled upon your website. i absolutely fell in love with the sound i heard from the downloads i found. i was wondering what i had to do to get a CD. that's about it, hope you guys write back.

later

Hello, this is Brian McCann of Holy Fire Design. Your site is awesome!. I love the industrial page. I came out of the industrial/goth/punk era when Ministry, Front 242, and Skinny Puppy were thriving. I'm a fan of Circle of Dust, Klank, Wedding Party and more. I was wondering if you would be interested in swapping links. Check out my site and let me know what you think. Brian

How I left Satanism. ok, This is a little bit about how I got into it and how I left it.

I got into Satanism about 6 years ago. I was a part of on and off for 6 years.
I never did quit going to church but still away from Christian people wore a satanic neacklace and read satanic books.

One day I was in a chat room and I met a woman by the name of High Priestess Tiffany Latden, she was starting her own Satanic church and asked me if I would be a High Priest in it. I said yes. The entire thing was kind of not even real to me and it soon fell apart.

Talking with Donna and seeing the tour through Hell is what made me choose to leave Satanism.

When I look back when I posted as HIGH PRIEST WISE, I think MAN WAS I dumb!

I know that demons are real and if we are not careful we open doors for them to enter our lives.
We have to understand that demons only wish to kill us. Something may seem harmless but if it is letting demons into your life and letting them get a foothold, that is VERY harmful.

Also demons will lie to us and say that we are things we are not or lead us into sins, cheating on the person we're with, or getting into the Occult or other sins! We must keep our eyes on JESUS! He will give us the power to beat the demons that torment us!!

GOD BLESS!!!

Hey I'm not sure if this is the right e-mail for Answers About Heaven, but if it is, my question is this: I heard that Jesus is coming in 2012. Is that true or was it one of those things that Jehovah's Witnesses say? -Caitlin

You're awesome!! I've been sending a lot of teens over to your site, needing help with their christian-gothiness or for them to prove to their parents that indeed there is such a thing as a christian goth....so hard these days for the youth. I have been to your site several times to do the forum thing...not sure if I'm doing it right but I signed up for it and couldn't figure it out or didn't know what to say.....I'm so lame sometimes!!! Since my dad's been visiting with me for the past couple months, I haven't been updating my site, and I'm so behind in my emails too....bad me!! Two days ago I had over a hundred emails to sort through, I'm down to 89....yey. I love your music so much. I just bought Virgin Black's Sombre Romantic and Elegant...and dying cds....I love them so much too!! Oh another thing I've been wanting to ask you. I've seen on your site that you're not into the awards thing but I was wondering if you would grace me by receiving one of my christian/goth site awards....of course there is no pressure or obligation to take it. I recently drove to Syracuse and took some really nice pics of the architecture there. I made a new christian/goth award out of one of the pics. I know you have a lot on your site so I'll understand fully if you don't really want to have an award. God bless you and your ministry. Hope you have a scrumptious and blessed Thanksgiving.

Your sis in Christ,

dani.

Hello, Under the punk rock room in the music section in godscare.net, there is a link to a band called 'The Discarded'. However, when I clicked this link, I got taken to a porn site. Can you please remove the link?

Dear Godscare,
I have been looking all over to try to find your latest CD to buy, but have not
found it. Do you know where I could buy it? Or could you please be able to sell
me one??? Hope to hear from you soon,
God bless,
Sam N.

Dear Mr. Scott -

I have just read your article on Election and Free will. I must say I respectfully disagree with you on many points. I, until resently, believed just like you. When I first heard the message of "Man doe's not have free moral agency" I too thought what a bunch of garbage. I too did not believe that God would, as you put it, choose a few while passing over the rest of humanity. I believed just like you for many years until I found out that God is not going to pass over anyone. I am sending you an article that I wrote on this subject and I pray that you read it; but then again it's God's will if you do or not.

Hey, you got a cool website!

I'm curious if you have the email to Alice Cooper? I'm trying very hard to reach him about being a part of the metal bible.

Would be VERY grateful if you could help with this in ANY way.

God Bless!

Hi,
I found you on a Christian goth site. I found a
copy of Goth Beauty magazine at work. WOW, a whole new
realm of lost souls to reach out to. I selected a band
to share Jesus with. Astrovamps. Sad band and big time
lost group of guys. Please keep them in your prayers
that they will come to know Jesus and leave Satan in
the dumpster.
Gods blessings to all of you for the holidays and on
into 2005.
Your drummin 4 Jesus bro,
Dwight
