My question is valid. If there was no initial proof from what he said that he had any problem with demons, then from what his churches beliefs are according to the action they took, it would be possible for him to experience problems with demons and not exhibit any signs, so periodic re-checks would be necessary.
In the future, why don't you let others defend themselves if they feel it is necessary, from the information that Quaffer posts, he should be astute enough to pick up on being belittled if that is the case.
4Jesus,
I would also like to point out that my church is a prophetic oriented church. While one may be able to hide an area of bondage for awhile, if that one is unwilling to let the Lord take care of it between Him and them, He will find another way of it getting taken care of.
But the point really is that Jesus sets us free. We can submit ourselves to Him and these "bondages" will not take up residense. If we do find there are bondages, we can still submit to Him and they will flee.
James 4:6-8 (Amplified) But He gives us more and more grace (power of the Holy Spirit, to meet this evil tendency and all others fully). That is why He says, God sets Himself against the proud and haughty, but give grace [continually] to the lowly (those who are humble enough to receive it). So be subject to God. Resist the devil [stand firm against him]. and he will flee from you. Come close to God and He will come close to you. [Recognize that you are] sinners, get your soiled hands clean; [realize that you have been disloyal] wavering individuals with divided interests, and purify your hearts [of your spiritual adultery].
(NKJ) But He gives more grace. Therefore He says: "God resists the proud, But gives grace to the humble." therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse you hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded.
As we draw closer to God and submit to Him then the devils flee. If we don't draw close and submit to God then the devils do not flee.
We've been given everything we need. We need to use it.
