Demons

Post #1

Post by imhereforyou »

A lot of people (practicing Christians or not) claim demons exists. Many times, something bad happens, or they see someone do something bad and they claim DEMONS or DEMONIC!
The Vatican has said not all processions are demonic.
How many here have experienced demons or the demonic?
How do you know (or do you just believe)?
What happened?
What did you do?

What % of things said to be demons or demonic are, in your opinion?

Why would the Devil make "awful" music? Doesn't he want to take possession by getting people to listen to it?
I would suspect he'd make good music. But the 'awful' is my descriptor - many seem to like it
Wizards were believed to cast their spells by singing them.
Music can illicit emotions so I wouldn't be surprised
There are Dodge Demons, and I'm sure they've possessed Florida highways.
Florida drivers don't need more power that's for sure. As far as the Dodge goes (and the upcoming Cobra Jet) I'm not impressed.

My theological positions:

-God created us in His image, not the other way around.
-The Bible is redeemed by it's good parts.
-Pure monotheism, simple repentance.
-YHVH is LORD
-The real Jesus is not God, the real YHVH is not a monster.
-Eternal life is a gift from the Living God.
-Keep the Commandments, keep your salvation.
-I have accepted YHVH as my Heavenly Father, LORD and Savior.

I am inspired by Jesus to worship none but YHVH, and to serve only Him.
