Do you believe in demon possession?

[Anonymous]

Yes

No

[Daniela1982]

It's possible. Especially when messing with an Ouija board. Christians can't be possessed because we have the Holy Spirit and a demon cannot be in the same body as God is.

Do you believe you can be influenced by a demon

[Daniela1982]

Influencing is a different matter. If a person is not strong spiritually they can fall easily to temptations. But they just make you stronger for the next time Satan wants to test you.

In 1688 Emanuel Swedenborg was born. At or in his 50s he used psychic powers 2 talk 2 soul guides. He talkd about things current near death experiencers hav said.

Anyway he said in the beginning the demons were all put in an asylum. Now they can possess u not physically but mentally. I think b4 they could possess physically.

Many demons can possess a person, as in Mark 5
5 They went across the lake to the region of the Gerasenes.[a] 2 When Jesus got out of the boat, a man with an impure spirit came from the tombs to meet him. 3 This man lived in the tombs, and no one could bind him anymore, not even with a chain. 4 For he had often been chained hand and foot, but he tore the chains apart and broke the irons on his feet. No one was strong enough to subdue him. 5 Night and day among the tombs and in the hills he would cry out and cut himself with stones.

6 When he saw Jesus from a distance, he ran and fell on his knees in front of him. 7 He shouted at the top of his voice, “What do you want with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? In God’s name don’t torture me!” 8 For Jesus had said to him, “Come out of this man, you impure spirit!”

9 Then Jesus asked him, “What is your name?”

“My name is Legion,” he replied, “for we are many.” 10 And he begged Jesus again and again not to send them out of the area.

11 A large herd of pigs was feeding on the nearby hillside. 12 The demons begged Jesus, “Send us among the pigs; allow us to go into them.” 13 He gave them permission, and the impure spirits came out and went into the pigs. The herd, about two thousand in number, rushed down the steep bank into the lake and were drowned.

As for me I’m going to have to say yes on this one because I’ve seen so many people get possessed by god so if they can get possessed by god I’m sure they can get possessed by a demon. Cheers to the horns pitchfork!

[Daniela1982]

@Static_In_The_Attic No one gets possessed by God unless they ask Him to. And it's not really a possession, more like a filling, like being filled with the Holy Spirit. With demons, you don't have to ask them to. They possess you no matter what you say. But, they can't possess a true believer in God.

Yes I do, but its not like most people think and its not necessarily a demon.
I have been possessed before, and I have seen people be possessed before.

When it happens you experience a feeling that doesn't originate from you, in my case I was in a video call with a girl who I broke up with on very good terms. We were friendly and the call was spent pretty uplifting with me being happy and understanding her. Right after the call out of nowhere I got immensely angry towards her despite not having any logical reason for that. Something felt my pain of the breakup and latched on trying to use me to get to her.

The rest of the details ill leave out, since its such a different level that I don't think most people are ready for it. But lets just say she ended up taking it from me and had to process that hatred in the days after. Right as she did, I felt fine again.

When President gerald Ford died one of his pall bearers was Dick Cheney. When they were carrying his casket out of the capitol they walked in front of a mirror. I noticed that Cheney did not have a reflection.
