Very well could be.
Satan will one day be locked up. Now he still causing trouble and accusing the brethren
Yes.
Two sentences = [Catholic] blog pimping. Do not feed.
I do agree that from God’s perspective these things have already happened. But from our perspective we are very much in the fight against Satan and his demons
I can add that to the list of your deceptions. Which includes
defining "God as any level of consciousness that exists above the level I am currently at."
* Postmortem "semester break" "lower level of Heaven the recycling level for souls that are growing but have not grown to transcend self or the physical body" to when "our soul actually expands to where the entire earth exists within you"
* "raising your consciousness frequency through prayer and meditation to levels where you perceive directly with your consciousness beyond your physical body," with "actually raising your brain wave frequency above 40 Hz" being "the lifted or raised up Jesus spoke of," that many call rapture." and "With enough meditation and prayer, anyone can make this journey to Heaven while still in your physical body,"
* and with "liquid swirling golden Light around the woman" (who did not eat for 3 weeks), as ... "the Holy Spirit came upon her in a lower strength of Light and cleansed her soul for 3 weeks before she was pure enough to be in the Light of Heaven."
* while "Merely touching a sin stored many feet from a person’s physical body in their soul often knocks the person off their feet,"
* and with "the human soul being a dipolar field like the earth.(masculine and feminine). Thus the earth changes are causing souls to be unshackled, This is the cause of all the gender identity issues and high divorce rate in the recent years,"
Which, as said, is too close to such cultists as Swedenborg and the Roy Masters. Edgar Casey, etc. And the demonic psychic healers who actually did heal, including Arigo: Brazil's Surgeon of the Rusty Knife.
But Paul would neither have necromancy nor demonic help in preaching the gospel:
And it came to pass, as we went to prayer, a certain damsel possessed with a spirit of divination met us, which brought her masters much gain by soothsaying: The same followed Paul and us, and cried, saying, These men are the servants of the most high God, which shew unto us the way of salvation. And this did she many days. But Paul, being grieved, turned and said to the spirit, I command thee in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her. And he came out the same hour. (Acts 16:16-18)And being reproved, in a damnable attempt to justify yourself, you resort to compelling Scripture to support you under the premise of being an elite esoterical enlightened one (thus Scripture must mean whatever you imagine), versus being soundly Scriptural.
And thereby you further manifest yourself as being a false teacher, who,
"preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, " "another spirit," "another gospel!" (2 Corinthians 11:3-4) For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. (2 Corinthians 11:13-14)
Jesus is my Savior, not because He died for me, but because He was born in the flesh, and lowered Himself to teach us how to follow Him. (This is why 1 John 4:2 is a very accurate scripture) I would much sooner have a lifeguard that teaches me to swim rather than waiting until I am drowning to save me. Jesus was/is a rabbi, a teacher.
There we have it most plainly manifest that you indeed have another Jesus, another spirit and another gospel. 1 John 4:2 condemns Gnostic types who denied the literal, manifest incarnation of Christ, while your lifeguard gnosis guru who teaches you salvation thru esoterical escapes is also "another Jesus" - an alterchristus - anti-christ as John states - whom Paul and the apostles did not teach.
Scripture plainly and abundantly teaches that Jesus the Christ was the divine (by nature) Son of God, who was born and came not just to teach and minister - which He did - (Acts 10:38) but to die, to give His life as a ransom (Mark 10:45) the promised scapegoat and perfect atonement, (Lev. 16; Mich, 5:2 Is. 7:14; 9:6; 53:1-12; Rm. 8:32; 1 Pt. 2:24) who rose from the dead as mankind's present savior and future judge. (1. Pt. 3:18-22) And who will yet reign for a1,000 years in a physical kingdom (Matthew 25:34; Revelation 20:2-7) till He hath put all His enemies under His feet. (1 Corinthians 15:25)
Thereby the Lord Jesus paid the price the forgiveness of our sin with His own sinless shed blood, (Isaiah 53:4–11; Luke 24:47; Luke 24:47; Col. 1:14 thus enabling being spiritually born (as a child of God: John 3:3-7; 7:37, 38; 14:24,25; 16:7) when one believes on Him with penitent faith. (Acts 15:7-9; Eph. 1:13; Titus 3:5).
And which effectual heart-purifying, regenerating faith, (Acts 10:43-47; 15:7-9) is that which is imputed for righteousness (Romans 4:5) and results in following the Lord, (Jn. 10:27, 28; Romans 8:14) which is to formally begin with being baptized (Acts 2:38-47; 8:12,36,37)
By which faith the believer is completely forgiven of al sins (Colossians 2:13) being washed, sanctified, and justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God, (1 Corinthians 6:11)and "accepted in the Beloved" and positionally seated with Him in Heaven, Ephesians 1:6; 2:6; cf. Phil. 3:21) and translated into His spiritual kingdom, (Colossians 1:13, 14; cf. John 18:36) and baptized by the Spirit of Christ into His body, 1Cor. 12:2) the one true church (Colossians 1:18) to which He is married. (Ephesians 5:23-32)
And those who die in that obedient persevering faith will go to be forever with Him at death or His return.(Phil 1:23; 2Cor. 5:8 [“we”]; Heb, 12:22,23; 1Cor. 15:51ff'; 1Thess. 4:14, 17) “the resurrection of life.”(Jn. 5:29) In contrast to those who were never born of the Spirit or who terminally fall away. (Gal. 5:1-4; Heb. 3:12; 10:25-39)
Didn’t Michael use King Solomon?
“Quis ut Deus”.
Satan has not been locked up in the abyss but 200 of his buddies are there. They were the ones who mated with human women causing nephillim to be born. Naughty fallen angels they were.
Latin for "Who is like God"-- the literal meaning of the name "Michael."
It can either be posed as a question ("Who is like God?"), and so it is a challenge to Satan who would place himself on the level of God but will eventually be vanquished by Michael, or as a description of Michael ("Who is like God.") in that he is, by the power of God, the powerful prince of God's army and guardian of God's people.
Art Bell was a kook. An entertaining kook, but still ...
That quote is in the Book of Revelation. It is not specific to Catholicism.
As what? Not that I have read.
The rest of the article, however, is super Catholic.
How? Strange question but oddly also answered in Jude: “But even the archangel Michael, when he was disputing with the devil about the body of Moses, did not himself dare to condemn him for slander but said, “The Lord rebuke you!””

Thanks dan. Very thorough, as sual.
Romans 12:1-2 I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.
And the sword of the Spirit is the word of God, which is what Jesus used against Satan when tempted by him.
I've heard that spiritual warfare is not a power struggle but a Truth struggle.
Satan is a liar and the Father of Lies.
God and His word are Truth.
Satan is defeated by the truth of God's word. That's why Scripture reading and memorization is so important. Hiding His word in your heart is your best defense against the Enemy. You can't manage to learn every lie the enemy will try to throw at you, but if you know the Truth, then the lies become self-evident when you encounter them..
I use God’s Light like a net to capture them, and then work with them toward repentance and recruit them as Lightworkers. That’s what pissed off satan.
You are clearly the most deceived person I have ever encountered.
There is not one shred of Scriptural support for your fantasies and delusions, and if you're basing it off what those entities are telling you, then you clearly fail to remember that Satan is a liar and the Father of Lies.
Why on earth you would believe a thing a lying spirit tells you or claims is beyond reason. But to treat it as truth and to speak of it as fact is to lead others into your very deep demonic deception.
Demon, darklings and negative spirts.
In my encounters the demon’s and darklings hate light, negative spirts are souls the refuse the leave.
