Exorcism is also still practiced in a Roman Catholic baptismal rite. But this particular exorcism is not intended to cast demons out of a possessed non-Christian. Rather, it is a rite that prepares the candidate for baptism by renouncing the devil and all that held sway in the convert’s life before baptism. This practice emerges from third- and fourth-century sources in the East. St. Cyril (A.D. 315–386) describes how baptismal candidates, during their baptisms, turned to the west and in four separate acts renounced Satan, his works, his pomp, and his worship.28
