9 Powers demons possess:

1 Indwell humans and animals (Mark 5:1–16)
2 Physically afflict people (Mark 9:17, 22)
3 Terrorize humans (1 Sam. 16:14–15; 18:10; 19:9; Acts 19:13–16; 2 Cor. 12:7)
4 Initiate false worship (1 Cor. 10:20–21)
5 Promote false doctrines (1 Tim. 4:1)
6 Perform false signs and wonders (2 Thess. 2:9; Rev. 16:13–14)
7 Deceive prophets (1 Kings 22:19–23)
8 Encourage idolatry (Deut. 32:17; Ps. 106:37)
9 Engineer death (Judg. 9:23, 56–57)

By staying well fed in the Lord with the Holy Ghost protection, we can assure ourselves that our battles are well fought and the Gates of Hell shall not prevail.

7 Weaknesses of demons:

1 They unwittingly serve God’s purposes (Judg. 9:23).
2 They were terrified of Christ and the gospel (Matt. 8:29; Mark 1:24; James 2:19).
3 They obeyed Christ (Matt. 8:32).
4 They obeyed the Twelve (Matt. 10:1–8) and the Seventy-Two (Luke 10:17–20).
5 They cannot separate believers in Christ from the love of God (Rom. 8:38).
6 They can be restrained by the Holy Spirit (2 Thess. 2:6; 1 John 4:4).
7 They have been judged already by God (2 Pet. 2:4; Jude 6) and will be again in the future (Rev. 20:10).

Demons try so hard to win battles that ultimately they lose wars. They are intelligent and must be respected and not mocked or scoffed at by sinners, including atheists, homosexuals, gluttons and drunkards, etc.

Please tell me why your answer is the most representative of your views and I think people need to be better prepared and know the strategy how to defeat Satan from their lives.

Mirror mirror on the wall OR WAS IT? magic mirror on the wall!!!

Since morality is subjective and the status of any given action being moral/immoral is based on each person's perception/opinion, for the purposes of this question let's consider moral acts to be those which have a positive impact on those around them (without extorting, deceiving, or harming others) and immoral acts to be those which have a negative impact on those around them.

For example: Having sex before marriage or not worshipping God would not be viewed as immoral acts within the boundaries of this question as they do not being harm or suffering to surrounding people.

I realise that this definition is far from full proof, but focus less on that and more on the question.

I just think it has a spiritual meaning to 153. It is mathematically the lowest 3 digit number where the sum of the cubes of its digits equals itself.

1 cubed plus 5 cubed plus 3 cubed equals 153.

It seems too deep to be random in mentioning the number of fish caught.

What do you think?

Yes. I was born a Christian but turned into an agnostic-theist (that's still open to different theories). Mine changed because I didn't want to believe in only one religion. I felt and still feel that we should keep out options open until irrefutable proof is shown.

This is in response to an user who thought I was antisemitic for saying Jewish God killed a shitload of babies.
Apparently she hasn't read about Noah's flood or the part where Jehovah orders Joshua to kill everybody in town.

How many babies do you think died in the flood?
