I believe He was. If it is a large G, it means Him. If it is a small g, it can be anything that we choose to do that gets in thevway of Him.

That's unfortunately incorrect. But as said above, that's been pushed by the pulpit for a long time now.

You can believe, but if you want to know, get a Strong’s concordance and see what the original Hebrew words meant. And, study the Bible. You are wrong on this.

For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

If it is a large G, it means Him. If it is a small g, it can be anything “

Except Biblical Hebrew and Greek don’t have capital letters. This difference can only exist in English versions, not the original.

BTW, I'm glad you bring this up because it is definitely a discussion that needs to be had.

As some very honest preachers have said, "If we told the truth, the congregation would head for the door like stampeding buffalo. People don't want to hear about the 'daemonic'."

I used the term "daemon" (same as "daimon") because some people want to argue about the term "demonic" being related to "spirits of the dead Nephilim" and thereby derail the discussion. Daemon/daimon refers to a being from the spirit world, not a "demon" specifically.

That's like saying, "If we can chew something and then swallow it, then it's nutrition."

No. You are overgeneralizing.

You are confusing psychological habits called idolatries with the greatly more intense pagan worship and identification with actual powers and principalities in league with satan and warned against in the Bible.
