“The Screwtape Letters by C.S. Lewis is a classic masterpiece of religious satire that entertains readers with its sly and ironic portrayal of human life and foibles from the vantage point of Screwtape, a highly placed assistant to “Our Father Below.” At once wildly comic, deadly serious, and strikingly original, C.S. Lewis’s The Screwtape Letters is the most engaging account of temptation—and triumph over it—ever written.”
I would say yes, but not on a scale that people would think. I knew a guy who worked in Psychiatry and said out of all the people he seen (which was a lot) there was only two cases that were unexplainable. But everyone else either had a chemical imbalance or issues that came from their child hood. The guy that I worked with wasn’t a Christian. He was cross training so I was able to ask him about all this stuff.
I believe so…BUT….can anyone in this thread give me Scriptural examples? I deal with some hard core denominational people who say absolutely not (ie Christians cannot even be oppressed by demons)
Most certainly. It is growing so fast. More and more people are following this “new movement” (it’s a powerful spirit behind it) that “there is no right or wrong” no “good and bad” if these decades now are not the last days then I can’t imagine how far this world is going to go in following Satans desires
Think there is a distinction between oppression and posession
Christians can be oppressed by satan to thwart our walk and sharing our faith.
Possession is unbelievers that have given their mind and will to Satan.
I pray you dont have to experience it to be convinced of what the Devil can do.
but take comfort in Christ Jesus who has overcome the power of this world
Oh yes!! What ever medicates the mind for men not to follow the will of God is spiritual possession. Most Christian churches who don’t use bible but dreams, vision and speaking in tongues has replaced the good ole study of bible. Runaway from these churches as far as possible.
Absolutely
It happens all the time and is part of the churches and people’s criteria. I mean – people are devil worshiping.
Satan floods our culture daily with his lies. So anti Christian and nurturing selfcenteredness.
Of course
Yes! Evil spirits are real. It would be best to stay on God’s side
Very.
Why should it cease?
I would say, from my experience, yes.
