While I did not grow up Catholic, I resonate very much with the Catholic teachings.
Many times I have gone to Carmelite and Benedictine monasteries for extended periods of prayer and meditation. It’s like stepping into a spiritual elevator to be around the sisters and brothers.
My religion is daily and direct, using the Bible as my guide map.
I see you’re into acute angles as well!
You drove right by my house... on Rt 15 south of Lewisburg, very near the Bucknell University football stadium..
“I’m going back to bed.”
Sweet Dreams.... LOL...
The thought is in your mind. It will grow if it is to be. If not, deaf ears cannot hear what they do not understand.
As it is supposed to be.
Ps. I didn’t yell. Silent prayer is loud enough.
Well said..
Amen
“There were 5 of us who did similar work in the early 1990’s. I’m the only one still alive.
One of the 5 was Dr. Irene Hickman. We were working together when a very strong demonic spirit took over her assistant and tried to kill me. The demon explained that was his mission and he would be successful as I was ruining their plans.
I gave Irene the tape recording of the session and she put a transcript (edited for all the growling and screams) in her book on spirit de-possession.”

Hm. Having looked quickly at Dr. Irene Hickman, it does not appear that she was a biblical Christian, and indeed involved herself in hypnosis, also known as “Enchantment” in the Bible, and the Lord God Almighty calls this “abomination”. See below:
Deuteronomy 18:9-12
“9 When thou art come into the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee, thou shalt not learn to do after the abominations of those nations. 10 There shall not be found among you any one that maketh his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, or that useth divination, or an observer of times, or an enchanter, or a witch, 11 Or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a necromancer. 12 For all that do these things are an abomination unto the LORD: and because of these abominations the LORD thy God doth drive them out from before thee. “

The demons, evil spirits, devils, evil angels, whatever one calls them - do not fear us at all. They hate and fear the Name, and the Power, and the Blood of the Lord Jesus Christ, and only in His Name can they be cast out and forced to leave, and the tormented one delivered out of their power.
Here are some samples of group or mass deliverance sessions, and also how to rid one’s self of demons:

One year in January...20 years or so ago, I was visiting friends in South Carolina. On the way back, I ran into freezing rain. Stayed overnight in Spotsylvania. Everything was closed. Headed to Lancaster the next day. It was horrid. The roads were solid ice. I had reservations at the Super 8 there. I was sitting in my hotel room, and the power went out. I found out that they were doing rolling black-outs because the temps were like -40 outside. Nothing was open. My car wouldn’t start. I had an old VW Jetta at the time. I needed to get on the road as I had broken my wrist and had an appointment to get the cast removed. I called AAA, and told them I needed a jump. The woman told me, we can start your car, but you won’t be going anywhere...Route 81 is closed due to the ice storm and tractor trailers jack-knifing on it. So I was stuck in Lancaster for an extra two days until my car thawed, and they’d finally cleared 81. The only place there was to eat was a restaurant across the street from the hotel. They had no power, so I just had a cold sandwich. That place isn’t there anymore. The last time I was there, and it’s been a very long time, there was a Valero gas station in its place.

One of my favorite books in the Bible is John 14..
If Jesus is in us, then Our Father that is in Jesus is also in us. (My paraphrase)
With Jesus in us, the things that He did and even more, we too shall do.
That is why Dr Hickman got stung and met her demise.
She was in a school voting. The voting booths were on stage. She backed into the curtain and fell off the stage.
Well, they are just so stupid aren’t they? Removing all confederate monument from the battlefields, so what, people would think it was a one sided war? Oh, and btw Dems, that was YOUR SIDE!
UFOlogists have discovered that the only people capable of stopping "alien" or "space brother"(fallen angels) attacks are Christians who call upon the Lord Jesus. Only His Name can stop their attacks.
I believe in the paranormal, and that evil walks this earth. I was brought up Catholic...not in the strict sense. I don’t go to church, but I do pray morning and night. I’ve never had any paranormal experiences, at least none that I know about. The only place that ever affected me emotionally was the Andersonville Prison site in Georgia. I walked around the whole area where the camp had been. They had it all marked where the fence was, and the dead line. For some reason I began feeling very sad, and almost broke down in tears. I’d never had anything happen like that before, and I’ve been to many battlefields, and plenty of other historical sites.
that’s because Quite a few mental health officials are cooperatively possessed and if it became excepted in mentell health communities that possession was real it would force those who are treating the mentally ill to look at the behavior of those they work with for signs off possession.
Amen. He is All!
I think NOLA has a lot of spiritual stuff going on — and not in a good way. It’s always fascinated me, but we’ve never visited. Something inside me (Holy Spirit, I expect) keeps us away. Ditto for Savannah.
Yes. John 14:12
“John 14:12 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.”

and: John 10:30 (Jesus said) “I and my Father are one.”

Also, the “UFO/space alien - demonic” connection (aka - space aliens are nothing but demons) has been commented and written on by at least two witches who became born-again Christians -John Todd aka Lance Collins, and also William Schnoebelen of WithOneAccord Ministries, both on YTube and WS still alive.
There is also, interestingly enough, an enormous Science Fiction - occult connection. I had not found clear information upon this, but noticed it myself. Can give the examples, should anyone be interested.
“The spirit could not answer that question and his blue eyes turned to black”
Shoot! That right there is scary. Biden’s eyes are naturally light blue, but they were black at the debate. Some have kicked around the possibility of TelePtompter contact lenses as the reason. Maybe is’s deeper than that.
We used to drive Route 15 when we lived in Corning and other family lived in Sunbury.
