  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Just like the heading says.......i have been, quite frequently waking up to my own hand swatting myself in the face! And this is no love tap either there's really some force behind it. Has anyone ever had this happen before? It's really starting to get annoying...and I was wondering, does anyone think this could be a spirit? I doubt that it is, but i cant really think of any other explanation. :scratch: Well, lemme know what you all think. Thanks in advance!

It's a virus. You caught it from your computer. It came from using this: :doh:

funneee, NorrinRadd!

But seriously, Heartland is right. It could be a sign of sleep apnoea. In your half asleep, half awake state, you could be trying to wake yourself because you know you're at risk.

Check out this site.

If it's uncontrolable it's a spirit ... get a new pillow, clean your room, listen to worship music before you go to bed.

Try to stop it next time using, " in Jesus name".

Sometimes I have to put on the full armor of God before I go to bed and yes this has happened to me, but not in a long time.

I was wide awake however, not sleeping. The act of hitting yourself in the head should be a concern to your pastor ...

ask for prayer and don't let the devil get away with it.

An ancestor spirit could be the problem ...

Do you feel angry?

I dunno, but I wake up with bruises sometimes. Pretty freaky sometimes if it's a bad one, but you just learn to deal with it. I just ignore it and go on with life. Seriously, I wouldn't put too much stock into the whole "demon" theory. Christians give them way too much power. If you got, demons then I got demons. If that's the case, then we're both screwed. So let me know. *wink*
