New Hampshire Satanic Temple Display Destroyed
Mere days after it was unveiled, The Satanic Temple’s display outside of the New Hampshire State House has been destroyed. Concord Mayor Byron Champlin, meanwhile, feels that the display never should have been approved in the first place.
From CBN. Vandals have reportedly destroyed yet another Satanic display, with the latest debacle unfolding in Concord, New Hampshire.

The Satanic Temple’s display was reportedly only up for three days before the black Baphomet’s head was lobbed off and other elements shattered.
The organization reportedly put the Baphomet on display Saturday, though, by Tuesday, the damage had already been done, the Concord Monitor reported. …
Mayor Byron Champlin, who didn’t condone the associated destruction, said he doesn’t believe the display should have been permitted to be placed outside of the New Hampshire State House.
“My preference was to deny the permit and accept the risk of the threatened lawsuit,” Champlin said at Concord City Council Monday night, according to the Concord Monitor. “I oppose the permit because I believe the request was made not in the interest of promoting religious equity but in order to drive an anti-religious agenda.”
This is an interesting argument, considering some claim all religious displays — including those of atheists and Satanists — should be permitted at holiday time when nativities and creches are placed on public property. …
While some argue the display is an example of religious diversity, Champlin takes a different view, seeing The Satanic Temple — a group that doesn’t believe in the existence of the devil — as implementing what he called a “very calculated political effort.”
“We have room in our society for atheists, and for secularists, and for Christians, and for flat-earthers,” he told the Concord Monitor. “That’s what our democracy and our First Amendment is about.”
Champlin continued, “I just don’t like what I view as a pretty cold political calculation on the part of this group, and I’m also very upset with the fact that this whole thing was prompted by somebody who’s not even from Concord.” …
Police are reportedly investigating the vandalism of the Satanic display. …

The destruction of this blatant insult aimed at the most Holy Time of the Year can only be seen as “Gods’ Hand” .
I Thank God, Our Father Almighty, for His intervention, and hope that those “Authorities” investigating the matter now seek proper guidance IN CHURCH !
Actually, the most holy times of the year fall on God’s festivals – Leviticus 23. Many major events in the Bible fall on these festivals. There is no other biblical subject which will shed as much light on prophecy and God’s plan for mankind as a study of the festivals.
Yeshua kept the festivals along with Moses, David, Joseph, Mary, the disciples and Paul. Faith in Yeshua should not contradict the faith of Yeshua. WDJD (what did Jesus do?) trumps WWJD every time.
Although God is always there, these are special appoiintments on His calendadr in which to meet with you.
Yes, and amen, Jodi! The moedim are a beautiful portrait of Yeshua, and all of redemptive history.
America’s Constitution (including the first amendment) has NEVER defended satanic and other evil religions. Our founding fathers used the word “religion” to refer to Christianity. The first amendment was NOT written to protect the worship of demons.
That is the danger of using the word “religion” without a predefined meaning. Any religion can be a slippery slope to hell. I say that, because as I define it, true believers don’t practice religion – they walk in relationship with YHVH our Abba, through faith in Yeshua, because they have responded in repentance to the conviction of Holy Spirit. Religion as I define it is “man creating a god in his own image”.
THANK YOU DEAR LORD GOD
FOR REMOVING THE SYMBOL OF YOUR BITTEREST ENEMY. I THANK YOU IN THE NAMES OF ALL DEVOUT BELIEVERS EVERYWHERE. ALL GLORY AND PRAISE TO YOU.
AMEN
Reminds me of Gideon
I thought the same thing!
Thank you Jesus that even the mayor of the city involved sees through the efforts of the group…as anti religious. I find it very interesting that the group calling itself the satanist or satanic temple actually doesn’t believe in the existence of satan. The mayor saw this and stated so. Unsaid was that if you don’t believe in Satan usually you also don’t believe in God.
Lord, we take all the land back from the adversary. We continue to take our marching orders from You in regards to this Republic and what You want to accomplish in and through here. May the purpose for which the U.S.A. was established ring true across the land itself. Amen.
FROM AZUSA ❤️ GLORIFY OUR LORD AND SAVIOUR. GIVE THANKS TO THE LORD FOR HE IS GOOD AND HIS LOVE ENDURES FOREVER PSALM 107. CHRIST JESUS IS LORD AMEN ✝️ TRUMP47 ANOITED PRES 💥
