Answer 2

Exorcisms could work... only people who believe in demon possession get possessed by demons. It's all in the mind. If the person believes an exorcism could help them, it might.

Answer 3

No.  The only time in history that it was possible was when Christ was on the earth.  God limits His and Satan's influence on earth.  When Christ was on earth, God allowed Satan more interaction in relationship to His own.  God has continually cleaned the world of evil down through the ages.  Today, Satan has been bound according to Christ.  His only recourse to you is through temptation of your own evil desires, which we all do according to James.

Answer 4

Sure, I possess demons all the time.

To be released, the secret is, to stand on your head (feel free to lean against a wall) and sip an entire glass of water.  Or have someone scare you.  Alternatively, you could send me money and I will do the work for you.

Answer 5

It is not all in the mind, it is real.

I didn't believe in these shiit until it happened to me!

Answer 6

Demons are christian gods that do not exist.  They never did and they never will

Answer 7

Demons? Feast your eyes upon the common man! They are the putrid demons you fear! They breath without life and exist as shadows.

Their grand desire for their own gain and their facade as good samaritans.

And you're among of them.

Answer 8

demonic possession is rampant,

they are held there by thier religious institution, belief in god is the same as demonic possession- brainwashing.

Answer 9

Yes, there are demons and yes they do  possess people who open themselves up to them. The fallen angels are demons, and are rampant on the earth as we speak, doing satan's work for him, deceiving more souls and getting as many as they can on satans side. If you truly believe in Jesus Christ, then pray to Him to cast out the demons, and He will. If you fool around with things like psychics, tarot cards, ouija boards, etc. you are opening yourself up to these demons. I have seen this stuff first hand and it is something we should all stay away from God tells us to stay away from fortune tellers, Jesus cast demons out of a man, these demons went into some nearby cattle. Even the cattle had the good sense to run into the river and drown themselves, they knew how bad these demons really could be. Ghosts don't exist, demons can appear like anybody they want to, that's why a lot of people thing they see a dead loved one, but they don't. The bible tells us 'to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord". So all souls go to heaven. Those demons are very real and should be avoided at all cost. I would pray to God/Jesus to protect  you from them.

Answer 10

demonic possession?!  let me just check my calendar again.  yep, it still says 2008.  

Answer 11

If the person possessed, confesses Jesus is my Lord, died, and rose from the dead for him or her and accepts Jesus into their heart, they can be then under NO form of demonic possession.

Acts 26:18

to open their eyes and turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to God, so that they may receive forgiveness of sins and a place among those who are sanctified by faith in me.

2 Corinthians 6

. For what do righteousness and wickedness have in common? Or what fellowship can light have with darkness? 15What harmony is there between Christ and Belial[b]? What does a believer have in common with an unbeliever? 16What agreement is there between the temple of God and idols? For we are the temple of the living God. As God has said: "I will live with them and walk among them, and I will be their God, and they will be my people

I am amazed that so many people believe here there is no form of spiritual evil that is on the earth today. They are certainly calling Jesus himself  a liar saying this, as Jesus said there was a kingdom of demons on the earth.

Luke 11

15But some of them said, "By Beelzebub,[g] the prince of demons, he is driving out demons." 16Others tested him by asking for a sign from heaven.

17Jesus knew their thoughts and said to them: "Any kingdom divided against itself will be ruined, and a house divided against itself will fall. 18If Satan is divided against himself, how can his kingdom stand? I say this because you claim that I drive out demons by Beelzebub. 19Now if I drive out demons by Beelzebub, by whom do your followers drive them out? So then, they will be your judges. 20But if I drive out demons by the finger of God, then the kingdom of God has come to you.

So saying this all you people must think Jesus was a liar.....but in reality when looking at Jesus, one must certainly say he was a liar, lunatic, or the Lord...I choose Lord of ALL

Answer 12

Only Jesus can set a person free from demonic bondage.....and he will for those who ask him...

Answer 13

Most people (outside of third world countries) have come to recognise that what once was attributed to demonic possession was and is, in fact, mental and/or physical illness (manic depression, schizophrenia, hysteria, epilepsy, seizures, etc.). The best way to overcome it? Medical and/or psychiatric help.

Answer 14

Yes. Through exorcism.

Answer 15

Demonic possession is nothing more than a person suffering from a medical condition. Epilepsy, mental issues, etc can make a person seem as if he/she lost control over his/her body.

But some people and societies in the past or even today are too stupid to realize this and claim that the person is possessed by the devil.
