Satan was once a beautiful angel, but got cast out of heaven because he wanted to be greater than God. His pride doomed him to the lake of fire. When God created the world, He made people in His image and gave them a free will. God wanted people to love Him for who He was and not a bunch of robots. God made Adam and Eve (the first people)and placed them in the Garden of Eden. He told Adam and Eve that they could eat from any tree except the tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil. Satan slithered into the Garden of Eden where Adam and Eve lived, and tempted them to eat from that tree and they did. They disobeyed God and from that moment on, all creation lives under the curse of sin. God can't look at sin because He is pure holiness, so He sent His son Jesus to be a sacrifice for sin so people would have a way to be reconciled to God again. If a person has accepted the sacrifice of Jesus, they get to spend eternity in heaven. Those who reject Jesus will spend eternity in hell with satan.
I'm afraid your friends are right. The wicca religion is a blatant worship of satan. Here is a verse from the Bible: 2Ch 33:6 "And he burned his sons as an offering in the Valley of the Son of Hinnom, and used fortune-telling and omens and sorcery, and dealt with mediums and with wizards. He did much evil in the sight of the LORD, provoking him to anger." You see, God sees these things as evil and this is what the wicca religion is about.
Although wicca is a blatant worship of satan, any religion that does not preach God's grace through Jesus Christ for salvation alone is a "false religion" and those who believe they can get to heaven any other way than Christ will also be in hell.
This is how satan works. He lies and tries to convince people to do things his way. Satan is not anyone's friend. He wants everyone to be dammed like him because he knows his destination is hell. He knows that people who accept Jesus will not be his any longer. And he hates people because we are made in God's image.
Jesus loves you soooo much that He gave His own life that you might be saved. You are in a dangerous place. You have believed satan's lies, but it doesn't have to be that way anymore. All you need to do is cry out to Jesus, confess your sins to Him and let Jesus help you out of the place your in. I'll warn you, it may not be easy. Since you have been involved in the direct worship of satan, he may put up a fight to keep you in his clutches. But Jesus is stronger than satan. Have faith and believe.
