and to startraveler Amen! Get thee behind me Satan!
The experience our family had may be partly responsible for my becoming such a strong Christian. I know how helpless we can be as human beings. All we have with certainly is our Lord Jesus Christ, who gives us life, light and truth. I even bless our home in Jesus’ name from time to time, a well as my loved ones all the time. The battle is not ours, but the Lord’s.
“”The battle is not ours, but the Lords.””
So true, So true....
I also like to point out that you’d best be strong when dealing with demon possessed people. Remember in the Bible the man who tried to cast out a demon? It said “Jesus, I know. But who are you?” and it beat the crap out of him. But I believe if you “allow” Jesus to do it, you’re going to win.
But can I keep the voodoo doll and pins???
It’s not the toy that is of heaven or hell, it’s the intent of the user.
Ouija boards are said to be dangerous because they can open the door to malevolent spiritual influences, which often present themselves initially in a sympathetic fashion. Some exorcists claim that a Ouija board is a common route for demonic attack, which commonly require permission in some form.
I don’t believe in them any more than I believe in astrology, sacred images in tortillas, or anthropomorphic global warming.
” it beat the crap out of him. But I believe if you allow Jesus to do it, youre going to win.”
Your belief is correct. When I do this work, the words coming out of my mouth are not me! I listen and learn by hearing the words coming through me. I was never a religious person and did not seek or ask for this path, it just hapened. It amazed me when 1 John 4: scripture came out of my mouth to test imposters when I had never read nor heard it prior. Only much later did I learn that it was a Bible scripture. It works!
I had a nasy one come out of a woman, hit me in the chest so hard that it felt like a 2X4 being shoved through me, and sent me flying backward into the wall. But yet no one physically touched me. It was an experience I will never forget and one that I needed. Of the four friends I had that did the same spiritual work I did back in the early 1990’s, I am the only one still alive.
After that first experience, they would appear to be hitting a cement wall as they tried to harm me. They would hiss, spit, scream and swing at me but to no avail. I’ve had them catch me off guard for a few moments and spin me for a loop, but thanks to the Divine Spirit, I recover quickly.
I have a tape recording where another one came out of me and into a woman. It was all we could do to keep her seated in the recliner as she kept thrashing around. It kept telling how it hated me and wanted to kill me. It tried.... I have been doing spirit release work for about twenty years. When I get in the way, it is a failure. When “I” step aside it goes well.
Incidently, the transcript of the tape of this demonic spirit release is recored in Dr. Irene Hickman’s book titled “Spirit Depossesion.” She was an absolutely wonderful angelic woman, but slipped up and departed.
“But can I keep the voodoo doll and pins???”
I think my ex wife has one of those!!!!
How about eating Lucky Charms?
"They" don't "do" anything. If "they" did, "they" wouldn't need "you" to put your fingers on the pointer.
If you want real proof, operate one with your eyes closed and see if anything but gibberish comes out of it.
If there were really demons channeling through you, they wouldn't need your eyes to be able to move the pointer to "yes" or "no"
IOW, it's a bunch of hokum, just like Sasquatch and "Nessie".
I saw a Ouija board in a tortilla once. It said, “Eat Me”.
I heard if you say “Candyland” in the mirror 3 times that the boogeyman will get you
What does God and the Bible say about submitting to hypnosis?
I always heard that was considered to be an evil practice, too and for the same reasons as you cite for the Ouija --it opens you up to being possessed by demons.
How do you know that you didn't open the door when you hypnotized them?
Deut. 18:10-12:
There shall not be found among you any one that ... uses divination, or an observer of times, or an enchanter, or a witch, or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a necromancer, for all that do these things are an abomination unto the Lord.
I would personally say the major difference between the movies with the gore & guts and a ouija board is:
the movies are an act of watching evil while the ouija board is actually an act of reaching out to something evil, an invitation.
I stay away from both.
Sorry, but a true Christian would never seek intervention from the dead.
If you need intervention you pray to God directly through Jesus Christ.
God Bless
