Well, if there is one thing about me.. I have no lack of "posts with Controversy".. lol.
This post is about "Angels and Demons". Not the movie, just spiritual stuff.
What brought this post on was this. The girl living with my "buddie Craig" was talking about "spiritual happenings" in her house today. She even made me listen to a "tape" (she felt)of "spirits talking" and stuff. That she was seeing "kids in her house (ghosts) and other stuff.
So first, I have to say my thoughts. I DO NOT believe in "ghosts". I do not believe there are people here "in some state" that they haven't either "Went to Heaven or Hell". I don't find it in the least "Biblical".
I do however, "totally" believe in "Spiritual stuff". When "Lucifer fell to earth", he took 1/3 of the angels of Heaven. That is Biblical. Now, if you study the Bible in depth.. you will find the number of angels in Heaven is "ennumerable" (more then you can count). So to me, there are more fallen angels (called demons) on this earth then we can count. As well as "Gods angels" also. They are all here, walking the earth. We don't see them, but they can come in human form at times.
Now, if you really study the Bible. Satan can do pretty much any Miracle God can do. Here anyway. Remember "Moses and Pharoah"? The same miracles Moses did, so did Pharoah's peeps. God always is showing "He is stronger tho".
Lucifer's job is to "deceive". If he can make you "believe in Ghosts", takes your mind away from "The real God". If he can make you believe in "Allah", takes your mind away from the real God. If he can make you "disbelieve" the Bible.. by spreading "distortions" of the Bible. That takes your mind away from God. God allows this. I personally think, he is proving a point to "Satan and man".. but that's just my opinion.
I don't "deny" Spiritual things. Not at all really. If people say they seen a "picture fly off the wall", or they seen something else. To it could be "real", or they could be just talking. What I tend to "disagree with" (mostly) is what they think they saw.
I've seen ALOT of stuff. I've seen pictures fly off walls, I've seen water drip from a dry room. I've seen the "Ouija" board move on it's own (I dabbled in somewhat occult stuff before my 8 year Bible study). I know things happen in the spiritual realm. I have seen way more then I can write here (if you have questions, ask me personally). I wish blogs were bigger. I'd write more.
What I believe (actually know), is if you "dabble in the "spiritual realm".. you will SEE STUFF. Whether you head to the "Occult side, or the Christian side" a "Spiritual WAR begins for you. The devil will do all he can to take you from God, but also God will do the same. God believes in freedom of choice.
There are NO GHOSTS! Lucifer (rather, his fallen angels), will make every "deception" seem real. God's angels can show up in Human form. Satan's can show up in forms too. You may not believe this.. but there are "Angels and Demons" around you all the time.
I know to most of you.. I seem to be talking out of my ass. No, I am not.
I'll say this. If you "in your heart" have Questions about "God/Jesus". JUST ASK HIM YOURSELF! JUST ASK IN YOUR HEART.. "IF YOUR REAL "SHOW ME"!!!!! ??? I know he will show you. Be prepared to see some things. I won't tell you "you must be born again", or anything. To me, that's like "putting the cart before horse". I feel God shows you first, then you want to know God better. It's one of the things I feel most churches got backwards.
You WILL sin till the day you die. That's human nature. And you can't stop sinning, no matter how hard you try. But when you ask Jesus to show you. Soon you will accept him. And you begin this "lifelong" process. You sin, he teaches you. You sin, he teaches you. You rebel sometimes, he teaches you. You begin a personal relationship with Jesus. You "desire" to please him. But you WILL sin.. till you die. You will want to please God. But you won't always.
I am NOT gonna claim to be a perfect "Christian". I am not.. far from it. I am a very "Heartfelt" person (although my methods aren't easy to figure). I love Jesus! If there was no "Jesus" I'd be dead or in prison. Despite all else I've wrote before, I am 100% different. Thanks to Jesus. I still got ALOT to work on tho.
Take care all, Gary :)
PS.. this is what happens when you get me in a "Church" all day.. lol. Everything I said true tho.
