No worries, cybrkitn, Lewis and Peretti are nothing alike, IMHO.
I just didn't want anyone reading my post to avoid
The Screwtape Letters because of my brief description.

That I know. DH has one of the Narnia collections in hard cover. They are shortened versions of the books, but I finally got around to reading them and they were great!

I think "The Screwtape Letters" book is in our bookcase in our bedroom. But first I have to finish reading a book by Ken Copeland, then I was going to start on "The Visitation" by Frank Peretti (we have already seen the movie and I can't wait to start the book).
 
OT--I got hooked reading this thread this weekend http://disboards.com/showthread.php?t=1359523 It has really been laying heavy on my heart. I don't know how you feel about it, but I don't feel it's just a game.


Kind of scary reading our accounts, wasn't it. But rockbottomsound was correct on page 10 of that thread. But the reason why those "entities" as she calls them (demons in my book) hate humans is b/c we are made in the image of God. Thankfully, those of us who are born again in that thread had God there with us to turn us around and renounce all of that.

Demons in my book too.

You know, I was trying to search for a verse for a friend of mine on Saturday night. I found it in James 1. Anyway, I got to verses 16 and 17 and my hair kind of stood on end. I had been freaked out about the link that was about the 7th gate. By me helping my friend find the verses she needed, God very definately spoke to me through it!

Hi yall, I'm a guy by the way.:lmao:

I don't know if you guys read other sources and there have been movies on that stuff too, like the Prophecy movies. I don't know what is necessarily true but there are some theories that tend to make sense, along with Bible scripture to back it up, as well as the Ouja board stories.

Apparently the bad Angels with Satan were pretty upset about us humans for some reason or another. From what I can tell it looks like a jealousy issue. Although I tend to think the reason they were cast out of heaven most certainly had to do with other issues as well, such as possibly Satan just wanting to do his own thing, but also over us.

The movies say that the war in heaven was over us, the bad angels being upset that we humans were given a chance to be equal with them or something along those lines and the bad angels wanted nothing to do with us. I have no doubt they look down on us. In the movies the angels call the humans talking monkeys.

But there certainly is evidence that the cast out angels (demons) do hate us, as well as Satan. Some of it may have to do with jealousy, some of it may have to do with the fact that for some reason these Angels hate God and want to do damage to his other creations such as us humans.

Of course these are questions that none of us could probably ever answer to any definitive degree. But taking Bible accounts and coupling them with the Ouja board stories, there is certainly evidence that the demons want to do us harm. And it also seems like they are in a place we know of as He!!, and would like nothing better but to try and get as many humans in there with them as possible.

Maybe God allows bad humans that go to He!! to be tortured by these demons as part of their punishment?

I would never mess with the Ouja Board, but the one question I think I would want to ask a demon is 1) why do you spend your time hating us humans? 2) Why did you do what you did to be cast out of heaven? 3) Why would you want to follow another angel Satan and not God?
 
I just read through the ouija board thread.I couldnt read all of it.I warn my kids all the time to stay away from those things.

I cant remember where I read this,but it said that demons want to hurt us because thats the best way they can hurt God. Nothing can hurt a parent more then hurting their child.
 
rockbottomsound, alot of your questions are answered in the book Angels by Billy Graham.

Yes that is probably one of the answers. It just amazes me that a creature that is as sophisticated as an angel, wants to spend its time hating on us little humans? And wants to hurt God's children. Why don't they spend there time trying to get back into God's grace? Just seems a little odd to me. Of course I'm sure there is much more to the story than we will ever know, unless someone has a direct link with Satan and can get his account first hand of what happened, of course if they did, he would probably lie about it.:lmao: He is the great deceiver.
 
I need lots of prayer for 2 things.

First for my cousin.She just found out that shes 7 weeks pregnant and shes considering having an abortion.This baby is a miracle.Years ago she had 2 tubal pregnacys,the doctors said that she will never be able to get pregnant again.Now shes pregnant,the doctors said that they have never seen anything like this before,her tubes were removed but somehow there was just enough left for her to get pregnant.She almost 40,her son in 18 and she has no money.

Second for my brother and nephew.Its a long story but the short version is when my nephew was a couple years old his mom decided that she didnt want to be a mom,so she left my brother and their son,moved far away,hardly ever came to see him.After she left my brother found out that she had been sleeping around and using cocaine. She was a very bad mom.my nephew is 7 now and is doing really well.my brother is with someone else,this women is more of a mom to my nephew then his own mom ever was.

Now that my nephew is older and not so much work she wants him back.She did go after cosody a few months back,the judge gave her a list of stuff she had to do in 6 months,like visiting her son a certain amount of times,she didnt even keep one of the condtions,so she didnt get set visitations or anything.Now she has a much better lawyer and its going to court.Her getting any kind of cosody at all it would be really bad.Whenever she does see him he is always so messed up for days after.Even her own sister doesnt think that she should get him.Im also worried about what this is going to cost my brother,he cant afford this.

Thankyou for any prayers.
 
:grouphug: Carrie, you are in my prayers. The word says "All things work together for good to those who love God and are called according to his purpose. Is your brother a Christain? If so have him claim the following verses over his situation; if not you can do it. I will also be doing it.
Psalm 34: I sought the Lord and He heard me and delivered me from all my fears. Isaiah 41: 10 -11---Fear not for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strenghten you. I will uphold you with the right hand of my righteousness, Behold all those who that were incensed against thee shall be ashamed and confounded. Isaiah 54:17 - No weapon formed against thee will prospher: and every tongue that arises against you in judgement thou shall condemn. This is your heritage as a servant of the Lord and your righteousness is of me, saith the Lord. Isaiah 49: 15-16--I will not forget thee. Thy name is engraved upon my palms and thy gates they are forever before me.

Please keep me in the loop.

I will not have a chance to check out the link the other poster had until I get home. YouTube is blocked here at work.

The Rapture one, does that take place in a church with a youth pastor and youth? DH showed me one a while ago, so I'm wondering if this is the same one.
