peggywebbs: So Mathew 12: 43-45, or 2 Corinthians 6:14 or John 1:5-9, do not tell you that That Christ is incompatible with demons? Demons only invade a person who does not have Christ in them |

Bastard1stborn: The topic is about demons not their evil father Satan, who successfully entered into man because Eve Absorbed him and got Adam to do the same. So I know and understand why we have double spirits in us. But demons are a different set of evil spirits who can not easily enter a man UNLESS the man is "Available"! |

greencard: A Christian can't be possessed but can be obsessed and oppressed. Demons possess, oppress and obsess If a person is not "filled with and fully yielded to the Holy Spirit", unyielded and "unbroken" areas can be occupied by demons.. You think a christian can't have the spirit of lust ![]() ![]() ![]() Note clearly that the mind and body of an unbroken or weak christian can be attacked by demons.. it is the spirit of a true born again christian that can't be possessed.. that's why a christian who doesn't assert his covenant rights can have the spirit of infirmity... Also there are spirits of obsession that make a person obsessed with a thought or desire until he / she acts on those desires and thoughts.. Why do you think Paul spoke about "casting down imaginations and bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ" ![]() "Be sober, be vigilant..." "We wrestle not against flesh and blood. " Shalom !!! 3 Likes |

You see the problem I have with you? It's not that you don't read the bible enough. It's because you are closed minded to the things of God. Every conversation is a bible debate and you ignore the reality of what you see. You remind me of the doubting Thomas. Because you have not seen, so you don't believe. Like I said, unless you explore the deliverance ministry, you can't really argue out the reality of things. In fact quote Genesis to Revelation. It won't change the fact that if you are open to sin, even just one minor sin, the Devil can take that opportunity to penetrate. Like I said, if you really want to know the truth, go and do deep research into the deliverance ministry and don't just come here for a verbal debate. Dtruthspeaker: 1 Like |

greencard: Yes , a born again Christian can be possessed of a devil. Can a born again Christian tell lies? If ur answer is yes then a born again Christian can be possessed. Anybody u yield urself to rule over u shall be lord over you either to God or devil. 1 John 3 Vs 7 says he that do Righteousness is Righteous ,even as God is Righteous. The Bible says he that sins is of the devil. |

1 Samuel 16:14 KJ21 But the Spirit of the Lord departed from Saul, and an evil spirit from the Lord troubled him. if you a Christian, filled with the holy spirit and you are not disciplined. you may fall into temptation and the evil spirit can enter you. that you are born again but have evil spirit inside of you before getting born again doesn't mean the evil spirit has left automatically. you still need to walk purely with GOD for it to go permanently. |

Dtruthspeaker: The question is can a Born again Christian tell lies? If the answer is yes, then a born again Christian can be possessed. The issue is that the influence of the holy spirit in ur life reduces when u start yielding to the deeds of the flesh. The Bible says he that sins is of the devil. |

Yes you are born of water and spirit. But you can still be corrupted. 2 Peter 2:20 If they have escaped the corruption of the world by knowing our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and are again entangled in it and are overcome, they are worse off at the end than they were at the beginning. You were told that your foolish desires will destroy you and that you must give up your old way of life with all its bad habits. Let the Spirit change your way of thinking and make you into a new person. You were created to be like God, and so you must please him and be truly holy. We are part of the same body. Stop lying and start telling each other the truth. Don't get so angry that you sin. Don't go to bed angry If you are a thief, quit stealing. Be honest and work hard, so you will have something to give to people in need. Stop all your dirty talk. Say the right thing at the right time and help others by what you say. Don't make God's Spirit sad. The Spirit makes you sure that someday you will be free from your sins. Stop being bitter and angry and mad at others. Don't yell at one another or curse each other or ever be rude. Instead, be kind and merciful, and forgive others, just as God forgave you because of Christ. Ephesians 4:22-26, 28-32 CEV https://bible.com/bible/392/eph.4.22-32.CEV Even after you are born again, you still have a lot of work to do. Remember we are flesh and our human desires get in the way. So its still very possible to sin and be exposed to the vices of the devil. tctrills: |

Tobechuckwu: Different Question! But just to touch and go! A Person who has become "Christ" knows that it is unnecessary to Lie for NO ONE CAN HARM HIM IF HE SPEAKS THE TRUTH, JUST AS CHRIST DID! |

alBHAGDADI: As a born again Christian, remember u still have to yield or submit urself to the things of God. The Bible says to whom u yield urself to obey , his servant shall ye be either to God or to the flesh. The influence of the holy spirit reduces once a Christian starts sinning nd can easily stop hearing from God, so he can easily be possessed of the devil. Yes we are the Righteousness of God in Christ Jesus, but 1 John 3 Vs 7 says Do not be deceived, he that do Righteousness is Righteous even as God is Righteous. Once a Christian is not forever a Christian, u must work out ur own salvation. Jesus told a parable of someone possessed of a devil nd delivered, he said the devil goes nd come back to check if d place is empty nd if found empty, the devil will bring 7 more stronger demons than him to occupy the place. 1 Like |

Dtruthspeaker: Yes it is still possible, when you sin you are still open to the vices of the devil. Having the Holy Spirit is like having a conscience, if you don't listen to the Holy Spirit and still sin, you grieve the Holy Spirit. You are very much going to be open to demonic manipulation. If you are born again and you try to avoid sin, no you can't be possessed. Demons need legal authority to gain access. When you don't give them that authority with sin, they can't come in. peggywebbs: |

Dtruthspeaker: Yes, the truth is that d moment a born again Christian that with little lies, the influence of the holy ghost starts reducing. The Bible says to whom u yield urself to obey, his servant shall u be either God or the flesh. If u yield urself to obey the flesh, then he cañ be possessed of the devil 1 Like |

peggywebbs: See it, still fraudulent changing and adapting the question so that it can accommodate your sinfulness AND YOU ALL THINK GOD DOES NOT SEE THIS. Continue to deceive yourself rather than be A New Creature who is like Christ! Continue fabricating stupid defences which have never held up in any Court , even in the courts controlled by your same sinning men, it did not hold it is now before The Holy Court, you imagine it shall stand, in explaining why you are guilty of sin? It's your weeping and gnashing e no go concern me. |
