People have been asking me about this topic for a long time and I thought I should post about it. But for it to be my honest opinion I have to write it with my Christian belief in mind. I know this is not the only view in the world but it is one due to my experiences that I share with many. For many years demons have been portrayed in various ways in human culture and media, but the biblical understanding of a demon is a supernatural being who is subservient to Lucifer. They, like Lucifer, were once angels who participated in the rebellion against God and were cast out of heaven (Revelation 12:9). When mentioned in Scripture, the primary focus is on demonic possession of humans and nothing else. In scripture they are not portrayed like they are in paranormal TV shows and in films… As once human creatures out for revenge and acting in childish spite. In scripture most of these demonic possessions take place in the New Testament. These accounts reveal characteristics of demons. Often, they are afflicted with some kind of physical or mental ailment, such as blindness, or self-torture (Mark 5:5). They often recognized Christ as the Lord, feared him, and were subject to His authority (Luke 4:33-36). In addition, demons had superior strength or knowledge (Luke 7:27-29), and had the ability to foretell the future (Acts 16:16-18).

The level of activity in the New Testament was unique. In the Jewish scripture (The Old Testament) demons are only mentioned a handful of times and not with the word demon. Jesus had come as a savior to mankind, and spiritual warfare was in full gear… The demonic activity was a great defense of Satan and this world against a Redeemer who came to conquer sin and death. As such, Lucifer didn’t hold back. After the Resurrection and the coming of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost, his power and that of his demons was severely restricted… Still, he and his demons are capable of corrupting mankind. It cannot be proven, but many times I believe the radical groups that wage war in the Middle East and elsewhere in the world could be an example of the demonic on Earth. These groups claim to be Muslim but attack and kill other Muslims. They claim they believe in the same God as Christianity and Judaism: the God of Abraham, of Isaac, of Jacob, but would eagerly kill Christians and Jews and consider it worship. Let’s think about it, If Lucifer and his band of demons are at work in this world, it would be through groups like ISIS, Al-Qaeda, and Boko Haram. This corruption is not isolated to Islam, either. It has taken many forms throughout history even in Christianity and Judaism. Here is a list of who is considered the 25 most evil people in history READ MORE  I have been seeing dark activity grow more and more. With it comes confusion and desperation, pain and heartache. Often by those groups and people trying to fight them with little to no spiritual basis…

Again, I just need to stress, this is my opinion and I speak it only because it has worked for me and I have seen many of these things happen… I am not trying to convert anyone, but I want to inform and help others who may be facing such darkness… It is real and can be harmful if you do not have the light in your soul… I know this may not be a popular opinion but here it is.
