The Road to Hell

[Jarlaxle]

Oh,m fer fuck's sake...

Considering there is also a song about a stairway to heaven, I think that says something about the expected traffic loads in both directions!

Job did see angels coming and going on that ladder and Jesus did in fact tell the disciples that they would be as the angels. Going out and coming in are spoke of throughout in the Bible, indeed there is a two way traffic zone.

I believe he is referring to Led Zepplin's song, Stairway to heaven which is not a Christian song. Jimmy Page bought Aleister Crowley's manor house, Boleskine and for a time Kenneth Anger (another Satanist) lived at the same residence with him until there was a conflict between the two. This resulted in a warfare in which Kenneth Anger allegedly cursed the band and from that curse / spell that was put against the band members there was a great fall out. The only person who was not harmed was the band member Jones and that was credited to the account that he was the only one that didn't sign some sort of oath with an occult sign on their albums.

I would have to find the news article about it to explain it as I am probably not stating exactly what it was that Jones didn't want to sign and refused. I only know that it had to do with something specific about the occult and all who signed on with Page had disasters come upon them according to the article - including deaths, tragedies and the split up of their band. The story gives a very good picture of the type of battles that go on between people involved in witchcraft and also the dangers of it for those who delve into it. I will trying to find the news article about that story, God willing.

Concerning songs, singers and such I see things in a way that you apparently do not at this time. The earth and all of the fullness thereof belongs to the Lord and all who dwell therein. When Ethan is contemplating Ethan also admits, The heavens are Yours, the earth also is Yours; The world and all its fullness, You have founded them.

No, the occult is the occult and what belongs to the Lord belongs to the Lord but we do not offer occult things to the LORD in the matter of worship, music, false doctrines as that would be a blasphemous thing to do.

The music by Led Zepplin should not be listened to by any Christian nor should some of their songs such as Stairway to Heaven be construed as a song Christians should listen to or sing. God forbid. GOD FORBID. We cannot drink from the cup of demons and the cup of the LORD, Rod. It's one or the other.

I found the story that I was looking for. Here it is:

Aleister Crowley, Jimmy Page and the Curse of Led Zeppelin-When Myth, Magick and Weird Facts Collide

The curse of Led Zeppelin. People started to whisper about this in the late seventies. Nobody had any particular facts. But when Zeppelin drummer John Bonham died in September 1980, things started to pick up. So—is there anything to this so called Led Zeppelin “curse”? Nonsense, right? Let’s see…



Most of the curse talk is centered around the little understood late 19th century magician, Aleister Crowley. To say the word magician in the 21st century conjures up images of David Blaine or David Copperfield working illusions. In the late 1800’s, there existed a different kind of magician. These guys were serious-unlocking dimensions, communication with extra terrestial intelligences, communication with the dead, thought teleportation, spirit photography-spooky stuff, and grounded in science. The spiritualist movement was huge at this time, and though many charlatans inhabited the terrain, making the public think this was all some tomfoolery, others knew better. (Read up on the influence of Helena Blavatsky in the spiritual movement and Theosophy). Much of this work was centered in England around the Golden Dawn Society. Founded by Samuel Liddell MacGregor Mathers in the late 1880’s, it was a secret society based loosely on Freemasonry, and like the Masons, had access to ancient secret Egyptian knowledge…supposedly. Their intent wasn’t evil or underhanded, they knew that humans had unlimited potential, and had vast untapped reservoirs waiting to be discovered. In short, they wanted mankind to rise up to a higher level of consciousness and awareness, not bad aspirations. They attracted high society intellectuals (William Butler Yeats was an early member), but infighting for control of the group, and a new member, Aleister Crowley, caused rifts that tore the group apart. . By the early 1900’s, the group had splintered into several sects and Crowley was off on his own.

The salacious aspects of Crowley are the easiest to locate in books and internet articles: copious use of drugs and sex. Lots and lots of sex. And sex while on drugs. Lots and lots of drugs. You get the idea. His life is far too much to cover here, but suffice it to say, Crowley continued on an esoteric magical path that continued to confound and mystify-and push the boundaries of understanding of the unseen further than anyone in the last 200 years. (he is indirectly responsible for Scientology, but was long dead when L Ron Hubbard foisted that scam onto the public). He became known as the master magician of the early 20th century-part devil incarnate or part receptacle of interdimensional knowledge? It was easy to find both opinions.



Enter Rock n Roll. From Beatle-esque good times to the psychedelic movement was a scant three years. Fans and bands were looking for something further. LSD and a rainbow of other drugs gave the insight that there actually was something further out there. Bands started to get weird and fans got weirder as the sixties shifted into 1970. It was around this time that Jimmy Page began to have a large fixation with Aleister Crowley. His bookstore he financed, The Equinox, was named after a Crowley journal, and it stocked some seriously rare and pricey occult books. This is the time when supposedly Page asked the band to perform a magical ritual with him, a ritual that would bring the band power unimaginable and something akin to everlasting life. Now for anyone who has heard or talked to people “in the know”, this kind of magic is nothing to fool with. It supposedly involves forces with powers beyond any human imagination, and is not to be trifled with by anyone not steeped in mountains of experience, certainly not for novice magi or stoned guitarists.(The oracle at Delphi giving mixed prophecies is a good ancient example). Blame hubris, blame drugs, but Page allegedly got the band, minus one, to join in this solemn and ancient ceremony. Jon Paul Jones was either skeptical enough or learned enough to stay far away.



The first evidence of this pact showed up on Led Zeppelin III. It was years before I discovered its exixtence. Between the end of the last song and the paper label is the outro groove. (this is where matrix numbers used by the pressing plant are usually located). Written into the vinyl (carved with a stylus into the test pressing acetate more correctly) was So Mote it Be on one side and Do What Thou Wilt on the other. These are basic stock phrases that are in the core of Crowley’s belief system, and are familiar to most who are aware of him. The magical significance of a Crowley power phrase spinning simultaneously on thousands of turntables across the world could not have escaped Page’s notice. (colleagues of this era say he most certainly was a member of the O.T.O. at this point)



It was on Led Zeppelin IV that the symbolism became more overt. No band name or title graced the cover or spine. Inside, a haunting painting of the hermit, a powerful tarot card symbol, was the sole image. On the innersleeve-more esoterica. Four symbols boldy across the sleeve. From left to right, these represent Page, Jones, Bonham and Plant. Page has said in interviews that most of these were taken Rudolf Koch’s 1955 Book of Signs, a collection of ancient and magical symbols from across the world. Plant’s is the easiest to decipher, the feather of truth from the Egyptian goddess Ma’at. Plant brought the truth and spoke it. Bonhams’s is the least esoteric-depending on who you believe it is either a symbol for a drumkit, the family unit, or the Ballantine Beer logo. Wise pundits refer to the latter as most likely. Jon Paul Jones’ logo, likely chosen by Page, is an ancient Celtic symbol with differing meanings and was co-opted by the early Christian church as a meaning for Trinity. The famed Zoso symbol is harder to pin down. Page famously has said he will never tell anyone what it means, but that it has obvious magical and occult significance. Robert Plant once said that in a quietly guarded moment, Page revealed the full meaning of all four signs, including a lengthy discussion of what Zoso meant. Unfortunately for the rock world, Plant said “I was a bit wasted at the time, and by the next morning I had forgotten. I asked him the next day to tell me again and he said he couldn’t/wouldn’t”



Even Sandy Denny of Fairport Convention, the ethereal voice on Battle of Evermore got her own symbol (cue foreshadowing music here) in the credits. Her symbol is related to both godhead and the power of the female.

Honestly...it looks related more to the haz-mat symbol for radioactivity to me.

Page at Boleskine, Crowley’s mansion



Page with Miss Pamela
That is a lot of esoteric ballyhoo, but where is the curse? According to Pamela des Barres, groupie extraordinaire and main squeeze of Page during this era, Jimmy got very deep into the Crowley myth, tasking her to scour San Francisco and Los Angeles for Crowleyania. She managed to come up with some impressive artifacts, manuscripts and even the magical robes Crowley wore. Then Page dropped a large chunk of change to acquire Crowley’s mansion, Boleskine, located on Loch Ness. Page said that the house had a history of suicides, which was true. This was now a serious obsession, but he managed to keep it fairly quiet above boards. Visitors to Boleskine said that at dusk, the outdoor patio was awash with shadows-phantoms and ghostly shapes, residue of decades of conjuring and whatnot. Whatever you believe, maids and servants were a quick turnover in employment, as all agreed the place was haunted to the point of being uninhabitable and beyond creepy.



Enter Kenneth Anger, Crowley disciple and filmaker. He was a noted underground filmmaker, drug taker and subversive. When Abbie Hoffman and Jerry Rubin hatched a plan to exorcise and levitate the Pentagon in 1967, people took it as a Yippie lark, a stage show. However, Anger was ensconced under a truck, busily drawing magic circles, burning incense and chanting spells in Enochian-truly and seriously trying to do a real ritual exorcism. When plans for his film Lucifer Rising began to go astray-the lead actor was Bobby Beausoleil, later convicted of murder as a Manson family member, had to quit; Anton Lavey of the Church of Satan had a cameo; he had an off and on relation with the Rolling Stones for soundtrack work, (oddly right before the Altamont tragedy); rough cuts and cameras were stolen. In stepped Jimmy Page to do the soundtrack. This was the start of a love/hate relationship between Anger and Page. The music Page produced was genuinely creepy (some showed up on In Through the Out Door as the intro to In the Evening.) Anger moved into Boleskine and they shared their love of Crowley memorabilia. Anger was eventually asked to leave Page’s house where he had been living as the relationship degenerated and Page pulled out in 1975. Anger did a major flame job in the media publicly, but privately said he had cursed Page and Zep with one monster of a spell, the hugest psychic whammy he could conjure, replete with the worst Crowleyisms he could muster. This is where shit really started to go south.

First Robert Plant was in a horrific car crash, plunging off a cliff in Greece in 1975, nearly killing himself, his wife and child Karac. This forced a cancellation of the remainder of the Physical Graffiti tour, and postponed the recording of Presence, which Plant was forced to record in a wheelchair. The make up tour was then plagued by a plethora of highly negative events. A sudden case of laryngitis for Plant after the band had shipped all of their equipment and instruments to the States meant zero rehearsing was possible. Ticketless fans in Cincinnati rioted and stormed the gates (oddly the site of the infamous trampling incident at the Who two years later that killed eleven), In San Francisco, manager Peter Grant and John Bonham roughed up Bill Graham and nearly beat a Bill Graham employee to death-Bonham and Grant narrowly escaped serious charges and incarceration. Then Karac got sick. the best physicians money and private jets could buy all had the same answer-‘we have no idea what is wrong’. He passed away in 1977 right after the Graham incident, and as the band arrived in New Orleans, they got the news. The tour was immediately canceled. Plant quit the band and music in response to Page and Jones not showing up to his son’s funeral. Zeppelin truly seemed cursed.

Bullshit. Karac Plant died of an aggressive stomach infection. (Led Zeppelin song I Believe and solo release All My Love are songs about him.)

Things continued to implode. Page was nearly comatose on a daily basis from a crippling heroin addiction. Bonham’s alcoholism raged out of control, and he became increasingly violent and unpredictable. In 1978, Sandy Denny, the goddess of Battle of Evermore plunged drunkenly down a flight of stairs and broke her neck and died.

Actually, no, she died of a brain hemorrhage.

Finally, in September 1980, John Bonham was sent home blisteringly drunk from a band rehearsal. Handlers tucked him in bed, he’d only drank 40 or so shots, he would be fine. Incorrect. He died in his sleep, and so did Zeppelin. The curse had cut a swath through the band in under five years. Only Jon Paul Jones, the only one not to sign the supposed pact, remained unscathed.

When all is said and done, it is pretty easy to chalk all of the above up to circumstance and chance. Eerie circumstances, but nevertheless, a round of odd coincidences. Page had said several times in interviews that he was ‘using a system that worked’ when asked about Crowley. Clearly occult practices were genuinely involved on some level, and some creepy and frightening personages dance in the background of the story. Personally? I am not so sure. Things started to backfire just as the band became the worldwide legends they had tried to magically invoke. Perhaps Page had violated the fourth pillar of O.T.O. commandments ‘To Be Silent’ by dropping some larger hints as to what he was into in his 1970’s interviews, which drew some commensurate magickal actions. But this is the thing that gets me–when so called ‘black magicians’ mess with this stuff, they usually do a protective spell on themselves for extra safety. Because black-ish magic is notorious for either backfiring or not working in the way it was supposed to.

Collateral damage around events associated with this behavior is well known. But Page’s extra level of spell could be simple, like “make sure nothing happens to me”. And looking back on Page’s career since 1980: his level of heroin addiction, lack of production musically (ignoring the Firm), failed Zeppelin reunions, and general dearth of accomplishments after nearly two decades of brilliance….it gives me pause. Nothing, literally nothing has happened to him. Good or bad. Just as it was phrased. And a fairly decent body count to go along with it is just enough to make you wonder. Really wonder.

Plenty of musicians have a brief superstar career, then kind of fade away...Page is hardly alone.

__________
Out of this story it is clear that some bands /band members will sell their soul to Satan in exchange for fame, power and money but even in the midst of that when they get into their own witchcraft battles with one another you can that because these people opened the door to Satan, and signed on, they can end up on the other end of those spells, hexes without any warning. Look at the deaths, the destruction and the truth is only those in hell will see the end of Jimmy Paige's story because it isn't over yet. When he dies? The judgment will be upon him. Then what? Do you see how dangerous this is and what of the many lives that have been destroyed because of those who listened to their music and were put under those spells by doing so? How many millions of lives have been destroyed because of listening to this demonic music?

Truly a very sad situation.

Please seek professional psychiatric help.

Concerning songs, singers and such I see things in a way that you apparently do not at this time. The earth and all of the fullness thereof belongs to the Lord and all who dwell therein. When Ethan is contemplating Ethan also admits, The heavens are Yours, the earth also is Yours; The world and all its fullness, You have founded them.

No, the occult is the occult and what belongs to the Lord belongs to the Lord but we do not offer occult things to the LORD in the matter of worship, music, false doctrines as that would be a blasphemous thing to do.

The music by Led Zepplin should not be listened to by any Christian nor should some of their songs such as Stairway to Heaven be construed as a song Christians should listen to or sing. God forbid. GOD FORBID. We cannot drink from the cup of demons and the cup of the LORD, Rod. It's one or the other.

I found the story that I was looking for. Here it is:

Aleister Crowley, Jimmy Page and the Curse of Led Zeppelin-When Myth, Magick and Weird Facts Collide

Do you think you can chase away their demons for them?

Every human being has a free will. Jesus Christ will not interfere with the free will of another human being to repent and be born again, Rod. Certainly no follower of Jesus Christ can do that either. What can I do as a believer? I have authority to bind the demons inside of them that are holding them captive so that they cannot operate, I have been given all power over Satan (according to Luke 10:19) to bind him from interfering in their free will choice to repent and be born again. I have authority to pray and ask the Lord to show them every wicked thing they have ever done or said and bring conviction upon their hearts that they might be saved. I can pray and ask the Lord to send laborers across their path to talk to them about being saved.

I can pray that way and when I am praying for people into the occult I can bind up the powers within them in their own soul (rendering them powerless) so that they are not able to harm any other human being but that is done in the hopes that they will repent and give their lives to Jesus Christ. Not to cause harm them.

Well I cannot compete with the power that you believe you have. Carry on and I will keep you in my prayers.

If you are a born again Christian and a believer in the KJV Holy Bible, Rod, there is no competition. I'm telling you what my God given authority is according to the Written Word of God is THE SAME authority that is given to ALL born again Believers who stand on the Word of God, the KJV Holy Bible and pray according to God's Word. If you abide in Jesus Christ and HIS WORD abides in you, you can ask what you will and it shall be done. This is one of the promises of God and God is not a man that he should lie.

Your problem is that you do not believe in Biblical Christianity. You have delved off into a false Gospel that has no power and no man can do anything apart from God. God does not conform to our beliefs. We must conform to His Word, to His Son's Commands and do what He says. Anything that isn't in the Scriptures (such as God using rock music - clearly satanic music is a tool of Satan, not God) and cannot be confirmed by the Word of God shouldn't be a part of our belief system. We cannot create a god in our own image because it is more palatable to our likes and dislikes. We are commanded to cast down every imagination that exalts itself against the knowledge of Jesus Christ.

It is written:
Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you. - Luke 10:19

Jeri, if you believe the word you should believe the whole not just portions and not just by the carnal precepts that have been puked out to be passed around for everyone to feed on. Psalm 1 has some good advice if you are willing to accept it.

I like John Wilcox's take...

I sold my soul to rock 'n' roll, when it didn't cost a thing
With stacks of scratched old 45's, I taught myself how to sing
What does it take to be a rock 'n' roll hero, just like the king?
Livin' your life in a blaze of glory, burnin' it up in a smoke filled club
Givin' your soul to the world

Music. Moves the heart, moves the soul. The singer has-willingly-dedicated his life to music.

Chorus:

Like a rock 'n' roll hero, a soldier of fortune in the night
Like a rock 'n' roll hero, when the white hot lights cut through the night
And the sound of the thunder starts roaring
That's when you know what you're savin' it for
And you're feeling like a rock 'n' roll hero

And that is why.

I owe it all to rock 'n' roll, and I wouldn't want to change a thing
Got this old guitar strapped round my neck, and my baby waitin' in the wings
What does it take to be a rock 'n' roll hero, just like the king
Livin' your life in a blaze of glory, a spark in your eyes
A flame in your soul, givin' it all to the world

(chorus)

Yes you're feeling like, oh you're feeling like

(chorus)

And he has no regrets.

On earth he may have no regrets but what about in hell? Hell is full of people who are begging for a second chance. There is nothing BUT regrets for those who have found themselves in hell, Jaraxle.

First Robert Plant was in a horrific car crash, plunging off a cliff in Greece in 1975, nearly killing himself, his wife and child Karac. This forced a cancellation of the remainder of the Physical Graffiti tour, and postponed the recording of Presence, which Plant was forced to record in a wheelchair. The make up tour was then plagued by a plethora of highly negative events. A sudden case of laryngitis for Plant after the band had shipped all of their equipment and instruments to the States meant zero rehearsing was possible. Ticketless fans in Cincinnati rioted and stormed the gates (oddly the site of the infamous trampling incident at the Who two years later that killed eleven), In San Francisco, manager Peter Grant and John Bonham roughed up Bill Graham and nearly beat a Bill Graham employee to death-Bonham and Grant narrowly escaped serious charges and incarceration. Then Karac got sick. the best physicians money and private jets could buy all had the same answer-‘we have no idea what is wrong’. He passed away in 1977 right after the Graham incident, and as the band arrived in New Orleans, they got the news. The tour was immediately canceled. Plant quit the band and music in response to Page and Jones not showing up to his son’s funeral. Zeppelin truly seemed cursed.

Bullshit. Karac Plant died of an aggressive stomach infection. (Led Zeppelin song I Believe and solo release All My Love are songs about him.)

Things continued to implode. Page was nearly comatose on a daily basis from a crippling heroin addiction. Bonham’s alcoholism raged out of control, and he became increasingly violent and unpredictable. In 1978, Sandy Denny, the goddess of Battle of Evermore plunged drunkenly down a flight of stairs and broke her neck and died.

Actually, no, she died of a brain hemorrhage.

Finally, in September 1980, John Bonham was sent home blisteringly drunk from a band rehearsal. Handlers tucked him in bed, he’d only drank 40 or so shots, he would be fine. Incorrect. He died in his sleep, and so did Zeppelin. The curse had cut a swath through the band in under five years. Only Jon Paul Jones, the only one not to sign the supposed pact, remained unscathed.

When all is said and done, it is pretty easy to chalk all of the above up to circumstance and chance. Eerie circumstances, but nevertheless, a round of odd coincidences. Page had said several times in interviews that he was ‘using a system that worked’ when asked about Crowley. Clearly occult practices were genuinely involved on some level, and some creepy and frightening personages dance in the background of the story. Personally? I am not so sure. Things started to backfire just as the band became the worldwide legends they had tried to magically invoke. Perhaps Page had violated the fourth pillar of O.T.O. commandments ‘To Be Silent’ by dropping some larger hints as to what he was into in his 1970’s interviews, which drew some commensurate magickal actions. But this is the thing that gets me–when so called ‘black magicians’ mess with this stuff, they usually do a protective spell on themselves for extra safety. Because black-ish magic is notorious for either backfiring or not working in the way it was supposed to.

Collateral damage around events associated with this behavior is well known. But Page’s extra level of spell could be simple, like “make sure nothing happens to me”. And looking back on Page’s career since 1980: his level of heroin addiction, lack of production musically (ignoring the Firm), failed Zeppelin reunions, and general dearth of accomplishments after nearly two decades of brilliance….it gives me pause. Nothing, literally nothing has happened to him. Good or bad. Just as it was phrased. And a fairly decent body count to go along with it is just enough to make you wonder. Really wonder.

Plenty of musicians have a brief superstar career, then kind of fade away...Page is hardly alone.

__________
Out of this story it is clear that some bands /band members will sell their soul to Satan in exchange for fame, power and money but even in the midst of that when they get into their own witchcraft battles with one another you can that because these people opened the door to Satan, and signed on, they can end up on the other end of those spells, hexes without any warning. Look at the deaths, the destruction and the truth is only those in hell will see the end of Jimmy Paige's story because it isn't over yet. When he dies? The judgment will be upon him. Then what? Do you see how dangerous this is and what of the many lives that have been destroyed because of those who listened to their music and were put under those spells by doing so? How many millions of lives have been destroyed because of listening to this demonic music?

Truly a very sad situation.

Please seek professional psychiatric help.

So she fell down the stairs and died from a brain aneurysm rather than a broken neck. Is she dead? Yes. And what of the young man who died of a severe stomach infection. He died. Where was the misquote from the author in that story? He never mentioned what the young man died of, did he? Only that he died. And so the points you have mentioned are really do not change the outcome in any way - those people are dead and that would include Bonham and in fact the only one who didn't end up with such an end was the one band member who didn't sign the oath, is that significant? The author - who is not me mind you - appears to believe it is possible. Does this mean that the author of the news story should seek psychiatric help? I hardly think it necessary. Indeed if you had read the comments from his news story you would find that many people agreed with him and thought he had written an interesting story. I does appear that you are the person with the problem, not him.

 

[Book of Jeremiah]

No, the occult is the occult and what belongs to the Lord belongs to the Lord but we do not offer occult things to the LORD in the matter of worship, music, false doctrines as that would be a blasphemous thing to do.

The music by Led Zepplin should not be listened to by any Christian nor should some of their songs such as Stairway to Heaven be construed as a song Christians should listen to or sing. God forbid. GOD FORBID. We cannot drink from the cup of demons and the cup of the LORD, Rod. It's one or the other.

I found the story that I was looking for. Here it is:

Aleister Crowley, Jimmy Page and the Curse of Led Zeppelin-When Myth, Magick and Weird Facts Collide

Do you think you can chase away their demons for them?

Every human being has a free will. Jesus Christ will not interfere with the free will of another human being to repent and be born again, Rod. Certainly no follower of Jesus Christ can do that either. What can I do as a believer? I have authority to bind the demons inside of them that are holding them captive so that they cannot operate, I have been given all power over Satan (according to Luke 10:19) to bind him from interfering in their free will choice to repent and be born again. I have authority to pray and ask the Lord to show them every wicked thing they have ever done or said and bring conviction upon their hearts that they might be saved. I can pray and ask the Lord to send laborers across their path to talk to them about being saved.

I can pray that way and when I am praying for people into the occult I can bind up the powers within them in their own soul (rendering them powerless) so that they are not able to harm any other human being but that is done in the hopes that they will repent and give their lives to Jesus Christ. Not to cause harm them.

Well I cannot compete with the power that you believe you have. Carry on and I will keep you in my prayers.

If you are a born again Christian and a believer in the KJV Holy Bible, Rod, there is no competition. I'm telling you what my God given authority is according to the Written Word of God is THE SAME authority that is given to ALL born again Believers who stand on the Word of God, the KJV Holy Bible and pray according to God's Word. If you abide in Jesus Christ and HIS WORD abides in you, you can ask what you will and it shall be done. This is one of the promises of God and God is not a man that he should lie.

Your problem is that you do not believe in Biblical Christianity. You have delved off into a false Gospel that has no power and no man can do anything apart from God. God does not conform to our beliefs. We must conform to His Word, to His Son's Commands and do what He says. Anything that isn't in the Scriptures (such as God using rock music - clearly satanic music is a tool of Satan, not God) and cannot be confirmed by the Word of God shouldn't be a part of our belief system. We cannot create a god in our own image because it is more palatable to our likes and dislikes. We are commanded to cast down every imagination that exalts itself against the knowledge of Jesus Christ.

It is written:
Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you. - Luke 10:19

Jeri, if you believe the word you should believe the whole not just portions and not just by the carnal precepts that have been puked out to be passed around for everyone to feed on. Psalm 1 has some good advice if you are willing to accept it.

I do believe the entire word of God which is why I'm not going to agree with you that God had anything to do with creating the occult song Stairway to Heaven. Nor am I going to agree with you in believing there is no harm in listening to such music. Of course there is. I fully believe that Psalm 1 is a Psalm we should live our lives by.

 

[Book of Jeremiah]

Question for the readers: When a cult sings about being on the highway to hell and uses music to lead your sons and daughters to commit suicide, kill others, commit acts of unspeakable violence should it be given the same freedom in our country as Christianity?

Is this what our founding fathers meant when they wrote about freedom of religion? I do not believe that is what they meant at all. How about you?

Yes, it is what our Founders meant by both Freedom of Speech and Freedom of Religion.

Now, if the Religion attempts to force people to commit illegal acts or commits acts against people without those people's consent, then those followers need to be held liable to the law of the land.....

Really? And when is the last time someone walked right past a no trespassing sign on your back lawn and knocked on your door for five minutes until you answered it in order to invite you to church, Anathema?

It's happened three times since we moved into our new house last April. The most recent being a trio of female Jehovas Witnesses back in late November. The other two were fairly local congregations that Republicans apparently known to do this,to new arrivals in the area.

Stairway To Heaven
Lyrics
There's a lady who's sure (who is the lady in your own mind?)
All that glitters is gold (what is gold in your mind?)
And she's buying a stairway to heaven (where is heaven in your mind?)
When she gets there she knows (does the lady know where she goes?)
If the stores are all closed (who is it that said buy from me in the Bible?)
With a word she can get what she came for. (what is the word? I only know of one's word that will help get you to heaven)
Ooh ooh and she's buying a stairway to heaven.
There's a sign on the wall (What sign and which wall? Could that be the one in your mind where you cannot remove the veil?)
But she wants to be sure (Who wouldn't want to be sure if they are buying the right thing when it comes to preparing to find the mysteries of heaven?)
'Cause you know sometimes words have two meanings. (Could that be the carnal and the spiritual that so many seem to get confused over when they are searching to buy that gold?)
In a tree by the brook (Which brook the Bible has a few of them. Name one if you can and tell us what it means)
There's a songbird who sings, (Which heavenly host's name is that of a songbird?)
Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven. (Have you never examined your own thoughts to make sure they are pure when you were younger?)
Ooh, it makes me wonder, (Do tell don't you ever wonder about questions that you cannot answer?)
Ooh, it makes me wonder.
There's a feeling I get
When I look to the west, (Where is the west spiritually speaking?)
And my spirit is crying for leaving. (Have you never cried to leave this carnal place?)
In my thoughts I have seen (What did his thoughts see were you there in them?)

I could continue on Jeri but I doubt you can or will be able to answer the questions already in this list that I have posed to you.

Rings of smoke through the trees,
And the voices of those who standing looking.
Ooh, it makes me wonder,
Ooh, it really makes me wonder.
And it's whispered that soon, If we all call the tune
Then the piper will lead us to reason.
And a new day will dawn
For those who stand long
And the forests will echo with laughter.
If there's a bustle in your hedgerow,
Don't be alarmed now,
It's just a spring clean for the May queen.
Yes, there are two paths you can go by
But in the long run
There's still time to change the road you're on.
And it makes me wonder.
Your head is humming and it won't go
In case you don't know,
The piper's calling you to join him,
Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow,
And did you know
Your stairway lies on the whispering wind.
And as we wind on down the road
Our shadows taller than our soul.
There walks a lady we all know
Who shines white light and wants to show
How ev'rything still turns to gold.
And if you listen very hard
The tune will come to you at last.
When all are one and one is all
To be a rock and not to roll.
And she's buying a stairway to heaven.

Written by Jimmy Page, Robert Plant

Sorry, not as answer to your prayers. We upgraded the signage at the fence line when I went to the gun show in December. It now reads..... "No Trespassing/Soliciting - Violators will be shot".

That one even kept the Girl Scouts away a couple weeks ago.

Not an answer to my prayers, I agree. When I read your response here I realized this was an answer to prayer from someone else. Someone who loved you very much. Did you know that when one of God's saints are taken to heaven that their prayers continue to be answered even after they are gone? It's true. I've found that the answers are usually unmistakable and had you of spoken to that stranger you may have heard them say something that would have let you know that there was no mistake in their showing up at your door. Standing at a door for five minutes knocking? That's persistence. They must have been sent there by someone's prayers and felt they couldn't leave without seeing you first.

The next time such a thing happens why not hear them out and see what they have to say to you? You may just be very surprised!

p.s. my grandmother's prayers for me were answered after she died.

The song is about mocking Christianity, prayer and Jesus Christ and calling the listener to come and follow Satan. The piper's calling you to join him is referring to Pan, another name for Satan, you'll find statues of Pan with the pipes in his hand.

Led Zeppelin — Straight From Hell!


Led Zeppelin's songs are saturated with Aleister Crowley's Satanic doctrines...

The worship of Lucifer, in the form of Pan, was a theme through all of Aleister Crowley’s writings. Jimmy Page has always been an open student of Crowley the Black Magician, and Led Zeppelin was his band. Following the teachings of Crowley, Jimmy Page and company were successful in placing his doctrines in many of their songs, including “Ramble On,” “Black Dog,” “The Battle of Evermore,” “Stairway to Heaven,” “No Quarter,” “The Song Remains the Same,” “Kashmir,” “In The Light,” “Achilles Last Stand,” and “Nobody’s Fault But Mine,” just to name a few. Led Zeppelin even went so far as to command their fans to sell their souls to the Devil in their concert film, “The Song Remains the Same.”

In Fallen Angel, the reader will be exposed to the entire spectrum of occult teachings presented by Aleister Crowley; combined with other renowned occult authors, to provide the truth about Led Zeppelin’s worship of, and propagation of Lucifer. The teachings are thoroughly refuted by this author, presenting the truth of the gospel, including the absolutes of truth presented in the human subconscious. This book has been written to inevitably glorify Lord Jesus Christ in the reader’s mind, especially in the heart and mind of the rock fan who needs to receive Christ as Lord and Savior. The evidence is overwhelming, yet factual, with the Word of God presented as the absolute authority for faith and practice. The objective reader, if a Christian, will be thoroughly equipped to witness to the rock culture; and the lost sinner will see and appreciate his need for salvation in our Lord Jesus Christ.

SOURCE: Fallen Angel: The Untold Story of Jimmy Page and Led Zeppelin

Page had inscribed in the vinyl of their album Led Zeppelin III, Crowley's famous “Do what thou wilt. So mete it Be.” Page and Robert Plant claim some of Zeppelins' songs came via occultic “automatic handwriting,” including their popular “Stairway to Heaven.” Stephen Davis in the Hammer of the Gods, details the occult inspiration of “Stairway to Heaven.”

". . . Robert described the 'automatic' nature of the lyric: 'I was just sitting there with Pagey in front of a fire at Headley Grange. Pagey had written the chords and played them for me. I was holding a paper and pencil, and for some reason, I was in a very bad mood. Then all of a sudden my hand was writing out words. 'There's a lady who's sure, all that glitters is gold, and she's buying a stairway to heaven.' I just sat there and looked at the words and then I almost leaped out of my seat.'" (Stephen Davis, Hammer of the Gods, p. 164)

"He [Robert Plant] often remarked that he could feel his pen being pushed by some higher authority." (Stephen Davis, Hammer of the Gods, p. 262)

There is no doubt to the occult influence of Led Zeppelin. For a very through, extensively documented history of Zeppelin’s occult inspiration read the 648 page book titled, Fallen Angel: The Untold Story of Jimmy Page and Led Zeppelin by Thomas Friend. Other Rock groups such as Ozzy, Sting, The Beatles, and others have praised Crowley too.

In the photo to the right, you can see the serpents on Jimmy Page's clothing. The Bible tells us that Satan appeared to Eve as a “serpent” in the Garden of Eden (Revelation 20:2). Tragically, evil always finds a willing servant. Anyone who has ever heard “Dazed and Confused” by Led Zeppelin has taken a spiritual journey into Hell. The song is evil and is still used extensively today by Satanists during occult rituals.

The photo to the left pictures a fallen angel. We read in the Word of God that Satan is a fallen angel (Isaiah 14:12, “How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!”). Notice the fallen angel's wings. Also notice the occult symbols in the background. Below is more information on these occult symbols.

It's not surprising that the guitar playing of Led Zeppelin's Jimmy Page is featured in the 1982 hit movie, “DEATH WISH II,” starring vigilante Charles Bronson and Jill Ireland. What's disturbing is that the rapists, punks, thieves and muggers in the movie are listening to Jimmy Page's music on their ghetto boombox. What kind of music do muggers, thieves, rapists, hoodlums and punks listen to? They listen to Rock music! They listen to Hip Hop, Rap, Goth and other worldly types of music. They listen to the Devil's garbage!

Pan is an incarnation of Satan which you'll learn more how Satan is luring people with his music (spells cast on the music) to follow him from the video. This person breaks down the meaning of the lyrics.



Stairway to heaven is not about heaven at all. It's about Satanism and the May Queen is the Queen of witches - she is linked to human sacrifice in this England Occult translation. They mix it with the beliefs of Satanism in the lyrics Stairway to heaven.

 

[Book of Jeremiah]

Led Zeppelin is Satanic to the core. In the song "Houses of the Holy," Robert Plant (lead singer) speaks of Satan's daughter and making her garden grow (a sexual reference). The album cover displays naked women crawling towards the top of the temple. It's sickening in the name of decency. Anyone who denies the occult inspiration of Led Zeppelin's music is woefully deceived.

Led Zeppelin idolized and promoted, The Most Wicked Man In The World, Aleister Crowley (the “O” has the long vowel sound in Crowley). Crowley lived from 1875 to 1947. In his publication, THE BOOK OF THE LAW, Crowley writes:

“This book shall be translated into all tongues: but always with the original in the writing of the Beast; for in the chance shape of the letters and their position to one another: in these are mysteries that no Beast shall divine. Let him not seek to try: but one cometh after him, whence I say not, who shall discover the Key of it all. ... With my Hawk’s head I peck at the eyes of Jesus as he hangs upon the cross.”

SOURCE: THE BOOK OF THE LAW (47-51)

As you've just read, Crowley speaks of the Beast, admits that his writings are a puzzle to be solved (which he says that the coming Antichrist will solve), and worst of all blasphemes the Lord Jesus Christ. Crowley was a despicable human being who worshipped Satan, summonsed demons through drug usage, impregnated countless women with sex-rituals throughout his whoremongering career, manipulated people, indulged in kinky sex orgies and unspeakable acts of homosexuality, ate the excrement of women during rituals, sacrificed hundreds of children in rituals, filed two of his teeth down so he could bite women during sex, et cetera. You couldn't make this stuff up if you tried.

Standing at a door for five minutes knocking? That's persistence. They must have been sent there by someone's prayers and felt they couldn't leave without seeing you first.

The next time such a thing happens why not hear them out and see what they have to say to you? You may just be very surprised!

Not persistence so much as annoyance. I've seen JW's sit on porches for extended periods of time to try and get people to talk to them. I have ways of dealing with those phonies after having good dealt with them multiple times before.

Several of my new neighbors had warned me about the other two groups, but I hadn't expected them to be quite as annoying as they were. Both are congregations (of the sane denomination) within walking distance of my home which are trying to increase their membership and influence enough to force the other one to close. I've been told to expect both groups to be back pretty much as soon as the snow melts, pushing their "services" again.

Why would I listen to a record I've already got memorized and don't like? I value my personal time very highly, and those who want it are expected to pay for it one way or another. These gas bags don't offer any return on my time investment.

 

[RodISHI]

I do believe the entire word of God which is why I'm not going to agree with you that God had anything to do with creating the occult song Stairway to Heaven. Nor am I going to agree with you in believing there is no harm in listening to such music. Of course there is. I fully believe that Psalm 1 is a Psalm we should live our lives by.

I did not say God did but I will say again that the Lord rules the hearts of men (those spiritual hosts of heaven and earth created in the beginning to rule heaven and earth in humankind have musicians among them).

This song is only evil if you take it as evil. I don't.
Stairway To Heaven
Lyrics
There's a lady who's sure (who is the lady in your own mind?)
All that glitters is gold (what is gold in your mind?)
And she's buying a stairway to heaven (where is heaven in your mind?)
When she gets there she knows (does the lady know where she goes?)
If the stores are all closed (who is it that said buy from me in the Bible?)
With a word she can get what she came for. (what is the word? I only know of one's word that will help get you to heaven)
Ooh ooh and she's buying a stairway to heaven.
There's a sign on the wall (What sign and which wall? Could that be the one in your mind where you cannot remove the veil?)
But she wants to be sure (Who wouldn't want to be sure if they are buying the right thing when it comes to preparing to find the mysteries of heaven?)
'Cause you know sometimes words have two meanings. (Could that be the carnal and the spiritual that so many seem to get confused over when they are searching to buy that gold?)
In a tree by the brook (Which brook the Bible has a few of them. Name one if you can and tell us what it means)
There's a songbird who sings, (Which heavenly host's name is that of a songbird?)
Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven. (Have you never examined your own thoughts to make sure they are pure when you were younger?)
Ooh, it makes me wonder, (Do tell don't you ever wonder about questions that you cannot answer?)
Ooh, it makes me wonder.
There's a feeling I get
When I look to the west, (Where is the west spiritually speaking?)
And my spirit is crying for leaving. (Have you never cried to leave this carnal place?)
In my thoughts I have seen (What did his thoughts see were you there in them?)

I could continue on Jeri but I doubt you can or will be able to answer the questions already in this list that I have posed to you.

Rings of smoke through the trees,
And the voices of those who standing looking.
Ooh, it makes me wonder,
Ooh, it really makes me wonder.
And it's whispered that soon, If we all call the tune
Then the piper will lead us to reason.
And a new day will dawn
For those who stand long
And the forests will echo with laughter.
If there's a bustle in your hedgerow,
Don't be alarmed now,
It's just a spring clean for the May queen.
Yes, there are two paths you can go by
But in the long run
There's still time to change the road you're on.
And it makes me wonder.
Your head is humming and it won't go
In case you don't know,
The piper's calling you to join him,
Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow,
And did you know
Your stairway lies on the whispering wind.
And as we wind on down the road
Our shadows taller than our soul.
There walks a lady we all know
Who shines white light and wants to show
How ev'rything still turns to gold.
And if you listen very hard
The tune will come to you at last.
When all are one and one is all
To be a rock and not to roll.
And she's buying a stairway to heaven.

Written by Jimmy Page, Robert Plant

The song is about mocking Christianity, prayer and Jesus Christ and calling the listener to come and follow Satan. The piper's calling you to join him is referring to Pan, another name for Satan, you'll find statues of Pan with the pipes in his hand.

Led Zeppelin — Straight From Hell!


Led Zeppelin's songs are saturated with Aleister Crowley's Satanic doctrines...

The worship of Lucifer, in the form of Pan, was a theme through all of Aleister Crowley’s writings. Jimmy Page has always been an open student of Crowley the Black Magician, and Led Zeppelin was his band. Following the teachings of Crowley, Jimmy Page and company were successful in placing his doctrines in many of their songs, including “Ramble On,” “Black Dog,” “The Battle of Evermore,” “Stairway to Heaven,” “No Quarter,” “The Song Remains the Same,” “Kashmir,” “In The Light,” “Achilles Last Stand,” and “Nobody’s Fault But Mine,” just to name a few. Led Zeppelin even went so far as to command their fans to sell their souls to the Devil in their concert film, “The Song Remains the Same.”

In Fallen Angel, the reader will be exposed to the entire spectrum of occult teachings presented by Aleister Crowley; combined with other renowned occult authors, to provide the truth about Led Zeppelin’s worship of, and propagation of Lucifer. The teachings are thoroughly refuted by this author, presenting the truth of the gospel, including the absolutes of truth presented in the human subconscious. This book has been written to inevitably glorify Lord Jesus Christ in the reader’s mind, especially in the heart and mind of the rock fan who needs to receive Christ as Lord and Savior. The evidence is overwhelming, yet factual, with the Word of God presented as the absolute authority for faith and practice. The objective reader, if a Christian, will be thoroughly equipped to witness to the rock culture; and the lost sinner will see and appreciate his need for salvation in our Lord Jesus Christ.

SOURCE: Fallen Angel: The Untold Story of Jimmy Page and Led Zeppelin

Page had inscribed in the vinyl of their album Led Zeppelin III, Crowley's famous “Do what thou wilt. So mete it Be.” Page and Robert Plant claim some of Zeppelins' songs came via occultic “automatic handwriting,” including their popular “Stairway to Heaven.” Stephen Davis in the Hammer of the Gods, details the occult inspiration of “Stairway to Heaven.”

". . . Robert described the 'automatic' nature of the lyric: 'I was just sitting there with Pagey in front of a fire at Headley Grange. Pagey had written the chords and played them for me. I was holding a paper and pencil, and for some reason, I was in a very bad mood. Then all of a sudden my hand was writing out words. 'There's a lady who's sure, all that glitters is gold, and she's buying a stairway to heaven.' I just sat there and looked at the words and then I almost leaped out of my seat.'" (Stephen Davis, Hammer of the Gods, p. 164)

"He [Robert Plant] often remarked that he could feel his pen being pushed by some higher authority." (Stephen Davis, Hammer of the Gods, p. 262)

There is no doubt to the occult influence of Led Zeppelin. For a very through, extensively documented history of Zeppelin’s occult inspiration read the 648 page book titled, Fallen Angel: The Untold Story of Jimmy Page and Led Zeppelin by Thomas Friend. Other Rock groups such as Ozzy, Sting, The Beatles, and others have praised Crowley too.

In the photo to the right, you can see the serpents on Jimmy Page's clothing. The Bible tells us that Satan appeared to Eve as a “serpent” in the Garden of Eden (Revelation 20:2). Tragically, evil always finds a willing servant. Anyone who has ever heard “Dazed and Confused” by Led Zeppelin has taken a spiritual journey into Hell. The song is evil and is still used extensively today by Satanists during occult rituals.

The photo to the left pictures a fallen angel. We read in the Word of God that Satan is a fallen angel (Isaiah 14:12, “How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!”). Notice the fallen angel's wings. Also notice the occult symbols in the background. Below is more information on these occult symbols.

It's not surprising that the guitar playing of Led Zeppelin's Jimmy Page is featured in the 1982 hit movie, “DEATH WISH II,” starring vigilante Charles Bronson and Jill Ireland. What's disturbing is that the rapists, punks, thieves and muggers in the movie are listening to Jimmy Page's music on their ghetto boombox. What kind of music do muggers, thieves, rapists, hoodlums and punks listen to? They listen to Rock music! They listen to Hip Hop, Rap, Goth and other worldly types of music. They listen to the Devil's garbage!

I do not agree with your limited close minded precepts and we will leave it at that as you only see what you want to see in it all. I do not consider Ray Boltz songs evil either just because he admitted and now is openly queer. Each will have to work out on their own with help from the holy spirit installed in them how to become overcomers. That includes you.

I would never suggest that you listen to any Jehovah Witness. That is a cult, not a church. If people from your local churches (which you refer to as sane) have visited you it wouldn't hurt to listen to them and have a conversation about the Lord, would it? You may be thinking they are trying to enlarge their congregations but what if their motive is pure and they would just like for you to be their guest at a church service? Would it hurt to just allow them some time to have a talk? Something to consider. Perhaps you will meet a friend who is a Christian and they will invite you to a Bible Study at someone's home. You might find that to be a blessing. Never say never (unless it is a JW at your door, then say no thank you). Thank you for your response, Mr. A..
