Hello, Brothers and Sisters. I am a new member to this site and have come here to join in with this Christian community and seek advice. I am a born-again Christian. I was married to a Roman Catholic years ago but we have divorced; he died 2 years ago. I have one child from him, my oldest, Thomas. My other child is the result of my unfaithfulness during my separation with my late ex-husband. I am now engaged to a wonderful Baptist man who is willing to be a part of my life despite the misfortunes that have come upon my little family. I am truly grateful for this chance because I know it is a sign from my saviour, Jesus Christ.
My concerns lie within my son. He is 23 yrs old and moved back in with my daughter and I 2 years ago after his father died. I love my son and would never turn my back on my children so I agreed to allow him to move in even though he has turned his back on me many times. He and his half-sister, my daughter, get along rather well but I feel very uncomfortable with him being around her. After his father and I got divorced, Thomas lived with him up north and became addicted to heroin. Throughout his whole life Thomas has had emotional and mental problems which I believe is partially due to the divorce between his father and I. He was enrolled in an alternative school throughout middle school and high school due to his disruptive and isolated behaviour. He was diagnosed with Manic Depression but ceased his medication after high school and became addicted to heroin.
Now he seems to have gotten his life back together a little bit.... He does not do drugs (to my knowledge) and he is the night-time supervisor at a grocery store. He is also a senior in college which I am quite proud of him for. What concerns me the most is his apparent athiestic and pagan beliefs. Ever since he had an unpleasant encounter with one of our priests when he was a child, Thomas has sworn off Jesus Christ and God. He barely speaks to me and he hates my fiancee very much. In fact, the only person he seems to connect with is his younger sister who is 17. My daughter tells me that Thomas "meditates" and "chants" in his room. He believes in this place he refers to as the "dream world." Upon further research I find that he is referring to some heathen idealogy known as the "astral plane." Do any of you know what this is? Can you give me more information on this topic because I am unsure exactly what this "place," or whatever it is, actually is.
Anyway, Thomas is regressing more and more from me. I completely understand his disdain--many children who suffer through divorce either blame themselves or the parents, but he is a grown man and must accept this aspect of life and return his faith to Jesus Christ, not this mystical jargon called the "astral plane." He is a very angry child. The other day he called me a "useless b*tch" and a "whore." It made his sister cry but he continued to scream at me until I ran from the apartment in tears to my fiancee's house.
Is my son possessed? I can't be entirely sure. My daughter seems to be fascinated by him which frightens me so much....I can't even describe. No matter how much I pray to God I feel both my children are damned for my own sins. I know Thomas loves his sister too much, more than he should. I know I should kick him out from the apartment but I don't have the heart nor the stomach to confront my only son. My daughter loves her brother even though she claims that he frightens her. She's a great child, my daughter (I rather share her name on the internet). She wants to be a nurse like me and is very loving and affectionate. Her brother has problems though, I told her this many times but she still insists on staying in the apartment with him while I am with my fiancee or at work (I work about 50 hrs a week). I really prefer for her to stay at my fiancee's house while she is alone, at least that way she can stay away from Thomas and his strange spiritual delusions.
The truth is I fear they have an incestous relationship. Brothers and sisters, I do not know what to do. Please help me. I pray to God every day for help. If I could give my life so that my son could be rid of whatever evil possesses him then I would. I love my children so much, any parent should understand why it is so difficult.
Are there any difinitive signs to determine is my son Thomas is indeed possessed by Satan? How can I keep him away from my daughter without abandoning him? Please help me!
