"I can command demons in Jesus name because I have that authority as a child of God. I have done so."

Can you elaborate on this? I am really curious about the above statement. I've never heard anyone say anything like it. Thanks!

This is Havoc's quote, not mine, so you should ask him. My reply was merely an offer of prayers that if he is engaged in such dangerous work I'll pray that he will not be deceived through it.

Sorry, I meant my question to go to Havoc - that's what I get (and you put up with) with a 2nd shifter who gets up every day with less than 5 hours of sleep... ZZZZzzzzz...

What question do you have? We have authority by the blood of Jesus and through the Holy spirit. If you have neither you have no authority in Him. When the devil tempts, you command him to go. When he oppresses, you command him to go. When he attacks in any other way, you command him to go. But, absent Jesus in your life, you've no authority to tell the devil anything - or any of his minions, or any other spirit. It's not surprising that you haven't heard anything like this. RCC clergy will only say things like 'there is power in prayer'. They don't know the first thing, in my experience, about the true authority they are supposed to have. If your priests ever woke up on that matter alone, there'd be a mass exodus from Catholicism IMO.
