    Is a mentally ill person possesed?

    You like others state your conclusion but fail to come up with any argument based on scripture to prove it. I am looking for arguments based on scripture and no one has been forthcoming except to point out that some cases of demonic possession may be neurological conditions. Some secularist...

    God The Father Exists

    Your argument seems to be that only the death of God can grant humans access to the Spirit of God and therefore Jesus must be God since scripture states man has access to the Spirit after Jesus died on the cross. The situation though is that there is no scriptural support for the idea that only...

    Is a mentally ill person possesed?

    I thought it quite interesting when you cited a verse that links demon possession and insanity. The definition of insanity is: It is now more politely called mental illness. Thank you for establishing there is a connection between demon possession and mental illness. You...

    New "Are you a Heretic?" thread.

    I disagree since I really do not care if someone else calls me a heretic since my goal is to please God and not man. If I cared what a human being calls me then would consider myself to be disobeying God. I have also learned that if you are serving God then you will be at odds with others...

    God The Father Exists

    Jesus has a perfect faith and so is the house God chooses to live in and those that believe that Jesus is the King that God appointed over heaven and earth will become a house that Jesus will live in and because God lives in Jesus, God will also live in those that believe just as Jesus asked in...

    Is a mentally ill person possesed?

    Since I used the Catholic Church as an example of the error that appears to exist in most of the Christian Church as a whole regarding demon possession I felt I should address it again. My source for the information in this post is the Catholic priest Father Cliff Graham. The Catholic...

    Is a mentally ill person possesed?

    In the interest of good communications, which seem to break down between you and me, how did you get the idea I was claiming to be God? I ask this because your response appears completely illogical to me considering that I have made it clear that believing all that God states means believing...

    Is a mentally ill person possesed?

    I feel a need to address a general objection and that is that the theology of God as put forth in scripture disagrees with the wisdom of the world as taught by psychiatry. This is variation of an old objection that Paul addresses in his letter to the Corinthians. A second objection is that...

    Is a mentally ill person possesed?

    So do you support the idea that every word in scripture is translated correctly and always interpreted correctly? I assure you there are many false prophets, just as Jesus prophesized, and some are translators and scribes. In fact I am more amazed at the accuracy of scripture than the apparent...

    Is a mentally ill person possesed?

    You answer this after I ask and in truth would beg you to believe all of what God states. Your answer to me is basically “NO!” If you are unwilling to believe all that God states and instead preach the nonsense of the world then I would be acting like a fool if I chose to listen to you. My...

    New "Are you a Heretic?" thread.

    I am not a heretic the person who designs the quiz is as they do not hold to the true gospel of Christ. That is of course their decision and they are accountable to God for it as I am for my own actions.

    Is a mentally ill person possesed?

    Your logic is flawed since in order to believe Jesus is true Messiah then we must believe everything he states is true since he speaks the word of God. That event is certainly important and a victory over the world for Jesus but scripture clearly states we need to fight the good fight for it...

    Is baptism necessary to be saved? (2)

    You probably dislike James not to mention Jesus since the earlier stated quite clearly that faith without works is dead and the latter was just as clear when he stated your righteousness must surpass that of the Pharisees if you wish to enter the kingdom of heaven. Then there is Paul who stated...

    Is a mentally ill person possesed?

    Still I do not find that scripture convincing since if the Bible is not the word of God that scripture could be wrong. I tend to go by the promise of gospel which is that by the power of God those who persevere in their belief will be like God in true righteousness and holiness and the fact...

    Is a mentally ill person possesed?

    I understand that there are different views of how sound scripture is including those who believe it is merely pretty words uttered by men, those who believe it is merely inspired by God but written by men who can make errors, and those who believe it is the very word of God though perhaps...

    Is a mentally ill person possesed?

    So you do not believe that the bible is the Word of God since you are denying it is with your very words. I think you should stop and consider that the writers of scripture are experts of religion because God states they are experts by choosing to speak through them and not because of any...

    Is a mentally ill person possesed?

    I have to point out what seems self evident to me and that is that mental illness is a secular diagnosis made by individuals that are not looking for a “supernatural” cause while demon possession is made by religious experts who know demons exist. In addition I hold that the individuals who...

    Is a mentally ill person possesed?

    Why do you think some experts use treatments such as cognitive behavioral therapy to treat it if they agreed with you? As Christians though, we look to God in order to change our behavior as we are powerless to truly change ourselves because of our sinful natures. We can use psychologist and...
