From Darkness to Light: The Powerful Testimony of Former Satanist John Ramirez

Introduction

John Ramirez was previously a high-ranking Satanic priest who practiced witchcraft, the occult, and demonic rituals. He grew raised in a world of darkness, serving the adversary and engaging in spiritual warfare against Christians. However, following a profound experience with Jesus Christ, his life was irrevocably transformed. Today, John is a zealous preacher who exposes the enemy’s falsehoods and shares the power of Jesus Christ.


This is his astounding transformation story: from Satan’s servant to a fearless champion for Christ.

Growing Up in Darkness

John Ramirez grew up in the Bronx, New York, surrounded by witchcraft and Santería. His father was a Satanic priest, and John was raised with rituals, sacrifices, and demonic rites.


He described having demonic contacts throughout his boyhood and being taught in spiritual warfare—not for God, but against Christians. By the time he was a teenager, he had completely embraced the occult, committing his life to Satan and working as a high-ranking warlock.

“I was drinking animal blood, performing rituals, and astral projecting to curse people. I was deep into the occult, and Satan was my father.” — John Ramirez

As he rose in rank in the kingdom of darkness, he became one of the most feared Satanic priests in New York. He could curse people, destroy marriages, and bring sickness upon others through demonic power. He even claimed he had direct conversations with demons and Satan himself.

But despite all the power, influence, and wealth he gained through witchcraft, there was something missing—true peace.

An Unexpected Encounter with Jesus Christ

One night, after a long time of serving Satan, John Ramirez had a life-changing dream. In this dream, he found himself standing at the edge of a massive abyss, staring into the flames of hell. Suddenly, Satan appeared to him and said:

“My son, I will kill you if you leave me.”

But then, a bright light appeared—a presence John had never encountered before. It was Jesus Christ.

“I love you. I have a purpose for your life.”

John woke up in a panic. He had experienced many demonic visions before, but this was different. He knew in his heart that Jesus was calling him out of darkness.

For the first time, he began questioning his loyalty to Satan. The demons he had once commanded turned against him, and he felt a fear he had never known before.

Surrendering to Christ

After battling spiritual torment, John finally stepped into a church—a place he had once cursed and worked against. As he stood in the presence of believers worshiping God, he was overwhelmed by the power of the Holy Spirit.

That night, he cried out to Jesus and fully surrendered his life to Him.

“I told Jesus, ‘If You are real, take me out of this darkness, and I will serve You for the rest of my life.’”

In that moment, years of demonic bondage were broken. The power of witchcraft, curses, and Satanic control over his life was shattered. He felt a peace he had never known before—the peace of Jesus Christ.

A New Life in Christ

John completely abandoned his past life in the occult and devoted himself to preaching the gospel. Today, he is a bold evangelist who:

• Exposes the reality of spiritual warfare and the dangers of the occult.

• Teaches Christians how to break free from demonic oppression.

• Shares the gospel with those trapped in witchcraft and New Age practices.

• Warns believers about spiritual deception in today’s culture.

He has written books such as “Out of the Devil’s Cauldron” and “Armed and Dangerous”, equipping Christians with spiritual weapons to stand firm against the enemy.

“The devil is a liar. The same Jesus who set me free can set you free too!” — John Ramirez
