Baptism and the receiving of God’s Holy Spirit does not exclude us from Satan’s influence. Indeed it may intensify it because Satan then pays a great deal more attention to us. The modern church avoids any teaching of Satan or demons. Many today don’t even believe Satan exists.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The article on this site \u201c<\/span><\/span>The Katabol\u00e9 \u2013 Satan\u2019s war with God<\/span><\/span><\/a>\u201d describes how Satan became who he is, <\/span><\/span>and how this Earth Age came into existence when Satan and the fallen angels were cast to earth. <\/span><\/span>I would encourage you to read about the \u201cKatabole\u201d to get some background on Satan.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

After the Katabole, Satan was cast to the Earth. In the world today Satan still prowls around seeking who he can devour. He has actually accelerated his destruction in these last days.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Jesus calls him “the prince of this world.” (John 12:31, 14:30, and 16:11) Peter says he is active in this world. “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour.” (1 Peter 5:8) <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n


\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Being \u201cthe prince of this world\u201d Satan offered Jesus the Kingdoms of the Earth as temptation:<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Matthew 4:<\/strong><\/span><\/span>8<\/a> Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them; <\/span><\/span>9<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/a>And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me. <\/span><\/span>10<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/a>Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve. <\/span><\/span>11<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/a>Then the devil leaveth him, and, behold, angels came and ministered unto him. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The battle with Satan is spiritual as described by Paul:<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Ephesians 6:<\/strong><\/span><\/span>11<\/a> Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. <\/span><\/span>12<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/a>For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the <\/span><\/span>rulers of the darkness of this world<\/span><\/span><\/span>, against spiritual wickedness in high <\/span><\/span>places<\/em><\/span><\/span>.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Christ\u2019s victory is accomplished and the Devil\u2019s defeat is ensured.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Where did the demons come from that serve Satan?<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

T<\/span><\/span>he demons who inhabit man <\/span><\/span>are<\/span><\/span> terrified of being banished by Yeshua into the Abyss <\/span><\/span>and fear any Christian filled with the Holy Spirit who may rebuke them and cast them out<\/span><\/span>. Th<\/span><\/span>e Abyss<\/span><\/span> (Pit, <\/em><\/span><\/span>abuso ) <\/em><\/span><\/span><\/em>is the same place where the fallen angels were chained <\/span><\/span>because of their sin with women<\/span><\/span>. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Jude 1:<\/strong><\/span><\/span>6<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/a> And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day.<\/span><\/span>
\n2 Peter 2:<\/strong><\/span><\/span>4<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/a> For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast <\/span><\/span>them<\/em><\/span><\/span> down to hell, and delivered <\/span><\/span>them<\/em><\/span><\/span> into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment;<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In Genesis 6 we learn about the fallen angels who took wives from the daughters of men:<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Genesis 6:1<\/a><\/strong><\/span> And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them, <\/span>2<\/strong><\/span><\/a>That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they <\/span>were<\/em><\/span> fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose. <\/span><\/p>\n

Genesis 6:4<\/a><\/strong><\/span> There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare <\/span>children<\/em><\/span> to them, the same <\/span>became<\/em><\/span> mighty men which <\/span>were<\/em><\/span> of old, men of renown. <\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The hybrid offspring nephilim<\/strong><\/em> spirits, which were not part of God’s creation, had nowhere to go when their physical existence ceased. Enoch tells us what became of the departed spirits of these hybrids:<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

ENOCH 15:8<\/span><\/strong><\/a> And now, the giants, <\/strong>who are produced from the spirits and flesh, <\/strong>shall be called evil spirits upon<\/strong> 9 the earth<\/strong>, and on the earth shall be their dwelling. Evil spirits have proceeded from their bodies; because they are born from men and from the holy Watchers<\/strong> is their beginning and primal origin; 10 they shall be evil spirits on earth, and evil spirits shall they be called<\/strong>. [As for the spirits of heaven, in heaven shall be their dwelling, but as for the spirits of the earth which were born upon the earth, on the earth shall be their dwelling.] And the spirits of the giants afflict, oppress, destroy, attack, do battle, and work destruction on the earth, and cause trouble: they take no food, but nevertheless 12 hunger and thirst, and cause offences. And these spirits shall rise up against the children of men and against the women<\/strong>, because they have proceeded from them.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

<\/p>\n

The departed spirits of the offspring of the nephilim<\/strong><\/em> became what we know as “demons.” <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Fallen angels are much more powerful than demons. We’re told by Jesus to cast out demons. Fallen angels have their own angel bodies, therefore they have no need to inhabit flesh bodies. However demons seek flesh bodies desperately; and, if need be, they will settle for the bodies of animals. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Mark 5:12<\/a> <\/strong><\/span>And all the devils besought him, saying, Send us into the swine, that we may enter into them. <\/span>13<\/strong><\/span><\/a>And forthwith Jesus gave them leave. And the unclean spirits went out, and entered into the swine: and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the sea, (they were about two thousand;) and were choked in the sea.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Bible list the following types of demons causing sickness, lust, seduction and deception:<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Seducing Spirits<\/td>\n1 Timothy 4:1<\/span><\/td>\nin the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Spirit of Devination<\/td>\nActs 16:16<\/span><\/td>\na certain damsel possessed with a spirit of divination met us, which brought her masters much gain by soothsaying<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Spirit of Sickness<\/td>\nLuke 13:11<\/td>\na woman which had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years, and was bowed together, and could in no wise lift up herself<\/em><\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Foul\\Unclean Spirits<\/td>\nMatthew 10:1<\/p>\n

Mark 9:25<\/td>\n

he rebuked the foul spirit, saying unto him, Thou<\/em> dumb and deaf spirit, I charge thee, come out of him<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Demons seek flesh bodies to interface with and control. The demon can inhabit and manipulate the body experiencing the pleasures of the flesh. Science has discovered the interface in the past 20 years and doctors are now also able to manipulate the flesh body through the interface.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The Interface <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The silver cord along with the brain is the interface to the flesh body. Our spirit is the puppet master most of the time. We hear about the silver cord in the book of Ecclesiastes:<\/span><\/p>\n

Ecclesiastes 12:6<\/a> <\/strong><\/span>Or ever the silver cord be loosed, or the golden bowl be broken, or the pitcher be broken at the fountain, or the wheel broken at the cistern. <\/span>7<\/strong><\/span><\/a>Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it.<\/span><\/p>\n

Through electromagnetic pulses and vibrations passed through the silver cord, our spirit receives data from the flesh body. People who have died on the operating table and have been revived and have describe seeing the silver cord as they were floating out of their body. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

During the dying process, as the soul leaves the flesh body and moves farther away, the silver cord becomes thinner as it is stretched to its limit and becomes severed.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Through this interface a team of neuroscientists have found that they can manipulate people’s moral judgments by altering the magnetic field of a specific brain region. Seducing spirits are able to manipulate you in a similar way to temporarily make you feel it is OK to sin.<\/span><\/p>\n
