“I know ghosts don’t exist. I just believe God’s word, and He tells us what happens to our souls when we die. We don’t hang around in this world. Believing that we do contradicts what He says.”
Can you point out where in the Bible?
Not attacking you, but I have been having this very argument with myself for some time now.
Thx!
Damn, thought I fixed that. Thanks.
Listenin' to Stevie Ray just now courtesy of you, my whole evening has been mightily improved! Thank YOU! :)
The man knew his way around a gee-tar, I reckon.
Make ‘em kick in for the rent.
How’d I know you were gonna say that?
Bump
Its aaaaa SpooOkY pIcTURe !!!
“Paranormal investigators who have visited the house believe it may be haunted by Jinn, supernatural creatures from Arabic folklore and have given Marie a copy of the Koran in a bid to placate the spirits. “ -— too many Mozlems in the neigborhood?
Umm.. because that’s what I always say?
;-)
I have dogs too.

BTTT!!!
When Jesus walked on water the disciples at first thought it was a ghost, yes? So this stuff was not unheard of in Biblical times. Cannot the Lord allow supernatural phenomena to take place as a sort of reminder that we are enmeshed in a supernatural struggle, that our lives are not our own?
Please don't flame me. This is a series question.
The Koran and clairvoyant didn’t work because they’re on the same side as the demons.
It’s time to consult a minister or priest.
Regarding the clairvoyant, perhaps dabbling in the occult led to this demonic infestation, as in the real-life case that “The Exorcist” was based on.
Your story certainly sounds like a demonic infestation. If you need confirmation, go to Amazon and read reviews of the Ouija board game. The accounts are similar.
The infestation could be related to occult activity by previous home owners.
If you’re Catholic, have your priest bless your house. If you’re Protestant, consult your minister. Don’t let it ride.
Ping!
Be glad to, Hazelwood (great name, BTW)!
Rather than post all the info here, I’ll send you a couple of links via Freepmail. There are quite a few references which state that, when we die, we go immediately to our destinations.
You’re right, the disciples thought He was a ghost until He spoke. But that proves what? That superstition is age-old.
If you’ll read my posts, you’ll see that I’m not arguing against supernatural phenomena. A Christian knows without doubt that the supernatural world exists-—but as the Bible describes it. We know angels and demons exist. But ghosts, no. If you witness some occurrence you think is a ghost, you can be assured it’s demonic activity, trying to cast doubt on God’s word and its warning about death and the judgement. You can’t believe in ghosts without rejecting Scripture.
