The following post is from December of 2021:
Do we even believe in demonic spirits anymore? We are proficient in teaching of all the demons that Jesus cast out....it makes for good Bible study.....but do we think that that has nothing to do with reality.....at least not reality as we purposely desire it to be? So when there is a mass murder....and the person is heavily involved in the occult....or in any of the other atrocities in our daily news that should have evil spirits written all over them....we instead assume there has to be a chemical imbalance somewhere in their brain.....for it could never be demonic.....and even if it was.....we're just not going to talk about it.....because we have enough trouble today with unbelievers thinking that we are weird....without demons and the devil coming into the picture.
Demonic spirits are mentioned in 19 of the 27 books of the New Testament....if I remember correctly. Was this a common occurrence throughout the Old Testament.....or was the demonic heightened because it was the time of the first advent? And if that would have been the case....would it not then be plausible that with the return of the Lord Jesus so near....that the demonic might be heightened once again.
In the same vein.....what happened to all the false prophets? They were everywhere in the Old Testament....and warned of in the New Testament.....but they're about as hard to find today as a Republican Senator who sees something wrong in what happened on January 6 of this year....or is it that we just refuse to address this issue also?
