Have fun and flame away.
Deviled ham!
I have an antique stand/table with burnt wood designs in it; I think it’s from around 1910 or so.
When I was a very small kid, it scared me because the carvings looked to me like weird faces. Now I think it’s beautiful - and it has never had ‘demons’.
I sometimes wonder about this computer I’m using.
“Only people can be demonically possessed.”
Didn’t Jesus cast some demons into a herd of pigs? Was this a one time event? Honest question.
There’s times I swear my Ouija Board is cursed. And it uses foul language like it has Tourettes or something.
Seems to me that an appeal to Jesus Christ would get rid of anything like that.
My sext massaging on this phone is demon possessed.
Bible is clear on the subject. The gulf between the dead and the living cannot be crossed.
As for demonic possession, I don't see it the way modern TV/film sees it. I see it entirely different. I had a good friend, a good guy, loved him and called him brother, but I could tell he had his demons. One of those was alcohol. I'm more convinced of demonic possession after he, in a drunken stupor, strung himself up in his workshop on Memorial Day, '22. No way a non-possessed person is gonna do that.
The energy of evil can attach and stay with an object or location.
I am super sensitive yo evil, having done exorcisms for over 35 years. I sense it when it is near me, or if it was at a location previously.
I was at a public auction of a business a few years ago when I walked into the business’s office. Immediately I felt the presence of evil. Not strong, but a residual.
Immediately I knew that someone had been murdered in that office. I told the auctioneer and he looked at me startled. He walked over to the window, pulled back the curtain, and handed me a can of Luminal that was on the window sill. The police accidentally left it there after doing the blood splatter study.
The owner of the business had been murdered in that office. Even though the office was professionally cleaned, the evil energy was still there.
I used to help the state police homicide detectives on difficult cases. I could feel the murder weapon just by being in the room. I’ve even taken them to the location where murders have happened.
Just two weeks ago I was walking on a sidewalk next to a handicapped ramp at a restricted. There was one location on the sidewalk that felt like I was walking through a painful fog. Ends up a woman fell at that exact location the previous week.
There are two types of “dark spirits” Jesus spoke of in the Bible. They are very different.
There are the demonic fallen angels that are pure evil, and there are “unclean spirits” that had a physical body at one time and were recruited by the demons.
The exorcism process is substantially different for the two types.
A demon can attach to an object and project its energy through it, and those energies can be strong.
Demons have tentacles and can be attached to many objects at the same time.
Pretty sure that Catholics need to be focusing on the “demons” destroying the Catholic Church from within...
Our Missions professor at Seminary brought back a mask from Africa on one of his journeys. Then weird things began to happen — moving and banging in his office at night. It was the floor below the women’s dorm. The building was locked. Security stationed people at every door 24/7.
Prof. finally got rid of the mask and all was quiet after that.
Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
James 4:7
I can personally attest to the truth of this.
Burning occultic books was done by the early church because of this. (This was voluntary and involved the owners burning their own property.)
Acts 19:19 NKJV
Also, many of those who had practiced magic brought their books together and burned them in the sight of all. And they counted up the value of them, and it totaled fifty thousand pieces of silver.
I remember when it was not uncommon for Evangelicals to call for burning music albums and other objects associated with the occult.
That is the example of how to deal with cursed objects in the Bible.
This glass of wine is demonic. I have to exorcise it.
Ask anyone who repairs any kind of machine for a living. Demons, or gremlins, or something, exist in every complex mechanical device ever made.
Liberals give me the creeps..that’s where the demons are.
I’m Catholic, and you will think I’m crazy, but in in my life, some pieces of furniture gave me the creeps.
Having been in and around the Middle East, I’ve seen and experienced some weird stuff. There are objects and places you need to avoid!
