We've all read and/or heard about demons in the bible. Do you think they exist today, right now, right here? Or does "evil" come in more subtler forms?

Why does it have to be one or the other?

Satan is a very powerful being.

Why cannot both cooexist at the same time?

Demons definitely exist. Demons are spirits. They are angels. The fallen ones. spiritual things don't die. So they're definitely still around.

The physical bodies of humans die. But our bodies aren't who we are. We are spirits too. Our spirits are who we are .. and our spirits live inside of our body. Sometimes demons will take on someone's body and possess them. Sometimes they possess other things too. So everything is spiritual. Our spirits are possessing our bodies. God's Spirit comes inside each Christian when he or she accepts Christ. And demons sometimes possess nonchristians and other things. Demons don't go inside Christians because they are afraid of the Spirit of God living in them.

At the ressurection God will raise our bodies up and make them immortal like our spirits. But demons will all be sent to their own place.

Some people including one user on here I was talking to a couple of weeks ago think ghosts are demons... they may be right, who knows?

I certainly think there might well be demons still around. The passage of time in itself doesn't mean that demons don't exist.
