I'll pray for you that this is true and remains so, and that the demons don't lead you along a deceptive path. God be with you.

Cute. Demons leave when commanded. How you get from that to being led by them... I know, just a swipe at something you either don't understand or don't believe, right.

When we used to live in the desert our friends kept their Great Danes near their trailer whenever there were coyotes around. They said that one time a coyote let one of the Danes chase him out in to the scrub, where a pack descended on him. Our friend chased them off with his handgun.

I don't ever underestimate the power of our Lord, but I try never to underestimate the cunning and persistence of our adversaries either. I don't know you or your situation. If you have genuinely driven them off, God bless you and your work. I would humbly remind you that this is through no power of your own, and to always be on guard against pride. Thus my offer of prayers. My offer was genuine, and I'm sorry that you are not trusting enough to receive it as such. Christ Bless.

I know it's through nothing I have in me other than Jesus. The which I have been saying all along. People without Jesus and the Holy Spirit have no authority through them. That is why the Demon said "Jesus I Know and Paul I know; but who are you.." All true christians have such authority. but then that is where it is so important to know the true gosple message. Without it, you can go jousting with no spiritual weapons - deluded - and be run through. This is why many decieved ministers are lept upon and taken to task by the possessed. It's why some priests in early writings were sent a running by demons they attempted to drive out. Approaching with no authority and no understanding of spiritual things is a good way to get oneself injured or killed along with the person attempting to be helped. And I'd venture to say this is why you don't see True miracles or deliverances, etc in the Catholic church. I've seen creative miracles worked through evangelicals. I've never seen, heard or read of even one through the Catholic church in my time. Nor do I know of any catholic that has.

Jesus said the fruits of the Spirit would follow those who were truly His. Where are they in Catholicism? Where have they been? I've seen the fruits of the Devil all through Roman catholic history, but, no fruits of the Spirit of Lord God... How then can they claim to be truly His.
