A friend of mine posted this on his Myspace....this can't be God's calling....can it? "I have a calling to help draw the "spirits" out of other’s homes or away from others. I dont want any money, I dont require any tools or time to set up - I just require knowing when and where - and someone willing on the other side that will allow me to call these creatures out. ~ We watch shows like "Ghost Hunters" , "Most Haunted" and others which touch on spiritual communication - which open our minds and perception to "hauntings". You need to understand the truth in the matter: There are spirits out there, those of the dead - but they are not trying to make communication with the living. There are, however - others which are trying to interact.. I am speaking of the demons (fallen angels) - they are very eager to interact with the living, because they await the day that Satan rises into rule. The fallen have the ability to allow us to see just about anything they want - dark figures, white sillouetes, orbs, mist, or even full body apparitions - all play part of their deceptive and sometimes playful nature. They like to trick and taunt us - keep us up at night with their activities and torment our lives. 1 And they came over unto the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gadarenes. 2 And when he was come out of the ship, immediately there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit, 3 Who had his dwelling among the tombs; and no man could bind him, no, not with chains: 4 Because that he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been plucked asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces: neither could any man tame him. 5 And always, night and day, he was in the mountains, and in the tombs, crying, and cutting himself with stones. 6 But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshipped him, 7 And cried with a loud voice, and said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of the most high God? I adjure thee by God, that thou torment me not. 8 For he said unto him, Come out of the man, thou unclean spirit. 9 And he asked him, What is thy name? And he answered, saying, My name is Legion: for we are many. 10 And he besought him much that he would not send them away out of the country. 11 Now there was there nigh unto the mountains a great herd of swine feeding. 12 And all the devils besought him, saying, Send us into the swine, that we may enter into them. 13 And forthwith Jesus gave them leave. And the unclean spirits went out, and entered into the swine: and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the sea, (they were about two thousand;) and were choked in the sea. ~ In the bible - it states that Legion was "devils" , "unclean spirits", and "unclean spirit" referred to it by Jesus. Leading me to believe that they are one in the same. Since the beginning of my experiences I have had one "supernatural" and "paranormal" thing occur to me after the other. Too many to count or list here. But I do know that I am called to interact with these entities - and draw them away from those that request or require it. I have done so quite a few times so far, and I am not stopping now - because I understand the truth about them .. They are not ghosts, they are not wayward spirits, they are not mindless apparitions - they are however the lost - and the fallen - and the futile. Under normal circumstances, these entities do not interact with us in the way that we want them to - they are there to cause chaos and havoc in our lives. When we are out and about doing things, especially if they are assigned to someone, they follow us - they deceive us by means of persuasion, trickery, and lies - but not in a way that we know it’s them. They do not want us to wake up to their real identity - they would rather have us believe that they are "ghosts", then demons. Otherwise we would be seeking out someone to rid us of their presence. We watch movies like the exorcist, and attribute that to demonic possession - but that is not what demonic possession is : look at the world today, kids and adults with mental and psychological illnesses that just shouldnt be there, anger and hatred where there shouldnt be... Violence rampant ... Many just think that’s the way the world is - - - but it’s getting worse, its never been as bad as it is today, and tomorrow its going to be that much worse. Now, we can just pass it off to being "just the way it is" - but I dont buy that. Demons are greatly known as "tormentors" - but they can also be very dangerous too - possessions, unexplained physical pain, anxiety, commotion, violence, suicide, even unexplained deaths - all can be the results of their activities I am not special by any means, I am just doing what I feel God wants me to do: wake others up to the truth, and secondly - help others out of the distresses that these unwelcomed guests create in your life. The "bumps" in the night are real - the footsteps, the sense of urgency, the sense of fear, the feeling of being watched ... But they are far beyond what many know or believe. Some people are called to preach, some to teach, some to heal, some to prophesy, some to missions in other countries - I am just someone that has been called to cast out the fallen. Call me crazy if you wish, but then again if you do - you’ll be calling what’s written in scripture as far as our spiritual gifts from the Holy Spirit as crazy too".

Demons are real, some may call them ghosts, but that does not change anything, they are demons and they are evil to the core. I believe we are called to do what Jesus commanded, preach the gospel, heal the sick, raise the dead, cast out demons. No one can say that they are called to only cast out demons, it's a package deal, we do all that the Lord has called us to do. Just my two bits............. Blessings

Are there demons and evil spirits, I would say yes for Jesus spent much time casting them out of folks. Are there haunted houses; I really have my doubts. Thsnks RC

Exactly - it seems some people have read 'Pigs in the Parlor' and now see "demons" in even a can of Coke.

Yes, I do believe you that demons existand that they are evil. I also believe that you have to SUMMON them, or be without God for them to harm you. I have been without God, but I was'nt "visited" by dark forces. Scripture (DEFIDENTLY) does say that demons exist, so no one can really call you crazy, unless they are a non-believer. I have had supernatural experiences also. One scared the daylights out of me, the other one was just the weirdest thing in the world. I really hope it never happens again. (random, but I just felt like throwing that in so let people klnow you ARE NOT crazy.) But as you were saying, you said that you know somebody that casts demons out of people. The proper word for that would be "exorcist". It's been transformed by Hollywood, I know, but it's still real. You also said that demons cause physical mental and emotional pain, and they are the cause of it. WE cause our own pain, by stupidity, selfishness, weakness, ect. Demons really are'nt that big in the picture, but they're in there.
