Luke 20:35-36 So you think those fallen spirits haved lived forever for 6000 years and now are no longer seen?Angels, both righteous and fallen, are invisible, incorporeal spirits.
The OP is engaging in the fallacy of begging the question. -CryptoLutheran

Matthew 16:23 he said Peter was one.I don't think "those fallen spirits" were ever seen. That's what the words "invisible" and "incorporeal" mean.

Believing in God whom no one has seen, but not believing in demons because they have not been seen.please expand .. What is this double standard you are talking about?
What about God’s Word? Is that not evidence?We have evidence that God exists but none that a devil exists.
Not so fast. There were 3 angels (one of which turned out to be a theophany) that visited Abraham in Gen 18. The other 2 went on to visit Lot in Sodom and then called down fire to destroy the city. James says to be hospitable to strangers as we may be hosting "angels unawares."Angels, both righteous and fallen, are invisible, incorporeal spirits.
Be more specific ! you mean like Peter? Matthew 16:23What about God’s Word? Is that not evidence?
Okay, specifically, if God’s word says that there are demons, should we consider that to be evidence?Be more specific !
Isn't it strange that no devils or demons have appeared for 2000 years? Have you seen any? If so, prove it; photos, documentation, etc.
Have you seen one? Perhaps you mean like Peter? Matthew 16:23How do you know they haven't?
God Bless,

I asked a question. Twice. Will you answer it, or will you just deflect?You mean like Peter? Matthew 16:23

Demons are still at work in this world. We know this with the rampant depravity in the USA and all over the world. Yes, the majority of the depravity is due to man's wicked and evil heart, but demons are most certainly involved.

Still at work then where are they employed? I think rather the devil is a false god of idolatry. The devil is idolatry and is simply the lusts of the flesh; James 1:14.and 1 John 2:16 a symbol of lustand a vivid hypostatization of idolatry i aggregate.I violates the first and great commandment and is a breach of the secnd commandment. Demons were merely lunitics, madmen, and were 'Moonstruck".Demons are spiritual. The spiritual is not visible to the human eye, nor can it be photographed. Demons are still at work in this world.

If you believe that there is no demonic activity, and has not been for 2000 years, you must have been sleeping.Isn't it strange that no devils or demons have appeared for 2000 years? Have you seen any? If so, prove it; photos, documentation, etc.
I agree..
Sorry but i was under the impression you where stating that my post was putting forth a double standardNo worries, breakdown in human to human communications.. Happens quite a bit..

That seems pretty visible and corporeal to me.
