How Did St. Michael Defeat Satan?
philipkosloski.com ^ | Don't Know | Philip Kosloski

Posted on 11/23/2024 5:51:04 PM PST by kawhill

Let us first look at Sacred Scripture to get a view of the Heavenly War:

And a great sign appeared in heaven: A woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars:

“Get off your power trip.”

If that power is Jesus working through me. I will never get off.

Oh you fool of little understanding. If demons are cast out through me, would satan cast out satan? You are just like the Pharisees.

You really have no idea what true Communion with Jesus is. You are too full of yourself to have room enough for Him.

Jesus told you that if he is in you, you too would do these things and more. If you are not doing any of them, He is NOT IN YOU.

WOWIE!! We just had 3 Priests over for dinner tonite and one of them was talking about being at an exorcism and how POWERFUL it was........he Blessed the man with Holy Water and the guy went BERSERK!

"Holy Water" is not attested to in any of the New Testament accounts dealing with this issue.

Respectfully.....you’re dealing with something you don’t understand in the spirit world.

While stationed on Ft Hood in the early 90s, we had a priest that spent considerable time in Italy as an Exorcist. One day we asked him what an exorcism is like. He responded that he had a hard time detailing his experiences. However said, just watch the Exorcist (movie), and you’ll get a perfect example of what he endured.

*****

Except in the accounts on this issue in the New Testament we don't see what was depicted in the movie.

That quote is in the Book of Revelation. It is not specific to Catholicism.

True....yet Roman Catholics appeal to that passage to justify some of the worship of Mary.

They conveniently ignore the following verse as it would contradict their false teaching on Mary being ever virgin and sinless.

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.

What in the world is a "lightworker"?

Bro.....you’re coming from way out of left field in your theology. I’m sure you think you’re right in what you’re posting.....but as others have noted....you’re not.

I trust Jesus totally.

I’ve been dealing with spiritual warfare for over 35 years. The greatest strength of demonic is the fear of it. I have no fear of it.

When the Holy Spirit moves in, it casts out all fear.

When the Holy Spirit is doing the work through me, it is impossible for me to fear the demonic. I just cling to God and His team does the work.

I don’t say this to brag, but so others realize what is possible when Jesus works through you. Trust Him with your life and soul.

I’ve already died and crossed over to Heaven. Ever since, a part of me is still there. I don’t want to be here. I miss Heaven. That’s the only reason I can do this work. It’s that connection. It’s like a high voltage line to my soul.

God keeps me here for some reason, unknown to me.

A Lightworker is a soul that is filled with the Holy Spirit. The Light radiates from it.

Respectfully, your theology sounds like a lot of new age philosophy with a mixture of some Christianity.

In other words, it's a different Gospel which is to say a false Gospel.

No where in the New Testament are believers every referred to as "lightworkers".

You have been greatly deceived.

The problem is you think you know Christ.....but your posts say otherwise.

You're coming up with terms like "lightworker", you seem to take pride in the things you're posting.

I’ve already died and crossed over to Heaven.

Which again is something not attested to in the New Testament.

God keeps me here for some reason, unknown to me.

Perhaps so you can truly be saved.

If I cast out demons with the Holy Spirit and Jesus, by who’s authority do you cast them out? Or don’t you even do it? As Jesus stated, “Would satan cast out satan?” “A house divided against itself will fall.”

No, satan does not cast out satan, as meaning delivering souls from all such, but he is can deceive, and also likely be able to replace his personnel with others, like a hotel. The problem is that you have already manifested yourself to be a deceiver and your claim to cast out devils is via a deceiving spirit who teaches contrary to the Scriptures, as shown, even by the little you dare to publish here!

Your competition in deception via exorcism includes Buddhism, Hinduism,

The image of Hanuman at the Hanuman temple in Sarangpur is said to be so powerful that its gaze drives evil spirits out of victims.[32] (unlikely to help you),

Islam, Taoism and Chinese folk religion, etc.

Again, as said,this is close to such cultists as Swedenborg and the Roy Masters.

So And many psychic healers who actually did heal, including Arigo: Brazil's Surgeon of the Rusty Knife., then there are the claimed miracles of heretic William Branham

God does indeed do real miracles, but then there are esoteric teachers of varying occultism.

You preach like the Pharisees. Closed heart and condemning of all who do not adhere to your perception.

Yawn. Your recourse to fallacious charges simply confirms your deceiving spirit. Truth is exclusive by nature however, and thus you yourself must reject all that opposes yours.

You said: ” … strive to raise your consciousness to the highest level possible to be near and one with God …”

If I (or you) was able to raise my consciousness to a level that would make me “one with God”, then I wouldn’t need Christ or his sacrificial atoning would I? However None of us, not me, not you, can attain even forgiveness of our sins except as Grace, much less a high level of one with God. I’m not “striving” for perfection. I will have it as a free gift (the only way possible) for believing. I will strive “to glorify God, and to enjoy him forever”, as the Westminster Shorter Catechism states that as the “chief end of man.”

Interesting how you condemn others of doing the exact thing you do yourself.

Isn’t the worship of the Queen of Heaven, kind of what got the Jews into this whole Babylonian captivity thing, in the first place?

You called that one right.

There’s no new age folderol implied at all in that passage.

Any9ne who is a servant and filled with the Holy Spirit is a Lightworker.

John 1

The Word Became Flesh

1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was with God in the beginning. 3 Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made.

4 In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. 5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.

6 There was a man sent from God whose name was John. 7 He came as a witness to testify concerning that light, so that through him all might believe. 8 He himself was not the light; he came only as a witness to the light.

9 The true light that gives light to everyone was coming into the world.

John 3:20
Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that their deeds will be exposed.

(It is due to the Light of the Holy Spirit that I read the contents of people’s souls and drive out darkness. It’s the Light doing it. It’s what happens when Jesus is truly in you as you are Baptized with Fire.)

John 8:12

When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, “I am the light of the world.

(When Jesus is in you, you too shine with Light. It is the Light of Jesus doing the work. Thus you become a Lightworker, a servant of God.)

John 12

34 The crowd spoke up, “We have heard from the Law that the Messiah will remain forever, so how can you say, ‘The Son of Man must be lifted up’? Who is this ‘Son of Man’?”

(This is yhe raised up or lifted up in consciousness I speak of. The higher you go, the closer to God, the brighter the Light. It’s the same Light I experienced in Heaven. It’s the same Light people see as they are dying. God is Love and God is Light.)

35 Then Jesus told them, “You are going to have the light just a little while longer. Walk while you have the light, before darkness overtakes you. Whoever walks in the dark does not know where they are going. 36 Believe in the light while you have the light, so that you may become children of light.” When he had finished speaking, Jesus left and hid himself from them.

46 I have come into the world as a light, so that no one who believes in me should stay in darkness.

2 Corinthians 4:6
For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” made his light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of God’s glory displayed in the face of Christ.

Ephesians 5

assage
Resources
Hebrew/Greek
Your Content
Ephesians 5
New International Version
5 1 Follow God’s example, therefore, as dearly loved children 2 and walk in the way of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.

3 But among you there must not be even a hint of sexual immorality, or of any kind of impurity, or of greed, because these are improper for God’s holy people. 4 Nor should there be obscenity, foolish talk or coarse joking, which are out of place, but rather thanksgiving. 5 For of this you can be sure: No immoral, impure or greedy person—such a person is an idolater—has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.[a] 6 Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of such things God’s wrath comes on those who are disobedient. 7 Therefore do not be partners with them.

8 For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live as children of light 9 (for the fruit of the light consists in all goodness, righteousness and truth) 10 and find out what pleases the Lord. 11 Have nothing to do with the fruitless deeds of darkness, but rather expose them. 12 It is shameful even to mention what the disobedient do in secret. 13 But everything exposed by the light becomes visible—and everything that is illuminated becomes a light. 14 This is why it is said:

“Wake up, sleeper,
rise from the dead,
and Christ will shine on you.”

1John

God is Light

Light and Darkness, Sin and Forgiveness
5 This is the message we have heard from him and declare to you: God is light; in him there is no darkness at all.

6 If we claim to have fellowship with him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live out the truth.

7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin.

(This scripture best says what I am trying to communicate. If you don’t experience this, you are like Saul on the road to Damascus before the Light fell upon him and blinded him, thus transforming him into Paul.)

1 John 2:9
Anyone who claims to be in the light but hates a brother or sister is still in the darkness.

(If you folks experienced Jesus’s teachings rather than just quote them, you would fully understand what I am saying.

God is Love and God is Light. These are attributes of Higher Consciousness. The higher you go, the brighter the Light and the stronger the Love.

If you are not experiencing this, then you are still asleep in darkness. This is why the Matthew 13 “Weeds” came while you were asleep.

Like I said earlier, AWAKEN and see the Light. Invite the Light of the Holy Spirit into you and you would see that Jesus is already here. For if Jesus were not already here, Communion would be a worthless sham.

I am not saying these words to glorify myself, but to help you grow out of the darkness and Awaken to the Light of God.

🙏🙏🙏
