Re: Sleeping with Satanists?

In the 1st, Christian bed, we see mutual collectiveness, connection, and sharing (3 people sharing the same bed), but on the surface it's not comfortable, as true Christianity is not--it's the most challenging process to engage in in this world, because it seeks the complete transformation of the ego, selfish side of us, which is represented by Yeshua (Jesus) sacrificing himself and dying on the cross-complete ego death so that the Spirit can take over (as it happened in his case, him coming back from the dead, in a glorified human form not subject to any human limitations and weaknesses).
Satanism is a symbol for selfishness and materialism. In the Satantist bed, it was one person with a large bed, symbolizing lack of connection but emphasis on self and on things.
It was initially more comfortable than the Christian bed, because on the surface selfishness is easier. It is easy and very tempting to fall into the ways of the world and of selfishness. The flesh itself is weak, and has a tendency towards spiritual stuckness.
But, turns out, while the Satanist's bed was initially more comfortable and attractive, it came at a price, the price of nasty smelliness. Scent is one of the body's strongest affecting, yet most subtle physical senses, and strong scents can affect the body very strongly (think cooking food when one is hungry, smelling salts, etc).
Sounds like you are at a point in your life where you are becoming more consciously aware of a choice, to follow the path of spiritual growth and Love (connectedness, true/original Christianity in the sense of Jesus's life, example, and personality) or getting further mired in that of selfishness, ego, and separation (at first more attractive, but then later very badly smelly Satanist, etc).
The latter has been more attractive to you, but you are awakening and starting to get fed up with it, and so are being offered a more concrete choice and realization about these very different paths.
At some point, every Soul needs to make this choice in a more concrete and conscious sense. A sort of initial initiation. However, each day, and each moment, we are given a choice to choose between attuning to a greater or lesser degrees of Love. The less attunement to Love, the more ego, fear, selfishness, materialism becomes strong in self. The more attunement to Love, the more contentment, joy, etc is experienced.
Spiritual growth is simply a numbers game, where we tend to choose, on average, but not necessarily all the time, those choices that align to more constructive, loving, positive intentions in relation to especially others.
"Old Souls" are just Spirits and Souls that have made a habit of choosing the latter more than the former. Because it's a habit, because it's ingrained, it's easier for them to make those more expanded, constructive choices in this life or in this current or future moment.
Eventually a zenith point can be reached, where a Soul so often chooses well and aligns with Love, that it can become like Yeshua (Jesus) in the flesh, fully overcoming the weakness and temptations of same. Being in the world, but no longer OF the world.
So far, only he in this last major cycle, has fully overcome, but it's probable in the near future that a few other individuals will do similar.
This takes total dedication, total focus. It takes going through a purifying Fire which destroys and breaks down all that hinders, and restructures everything. One's strongest, limiting attachments and tendencies need to be overcome completely.
