We are called to know about
otherworldly beings especially those consigned to our world, to watch out for
them, and not fall prey. Yet, we are not to consult or “play” with them.
Again if you have the proper
view of supernatural creatures, remembering they are more like a grizzly bear
and not like us, you will have an easier time.
We can learn to observe and
recognize them, but just like you would not engage a grizzly, neither should
you engage supernatural creatures.
Angels that are sent to do
God’s will, do just that. They help, act as messengers, or protectors, and then
they leave. Chances are, you will only recognize they were sent from God after
the occurrence or maybe during, but then they are gone. They do not hang around
and act at our will.
Those creatures who are
willing to hang around, only do so out of malevolence towards us. Their goal is
our destruction. They see their consignment to this world as our (humans)
fault.
If you are not saved or are
on the fence, they may appear friendly, because they know your destruction is
assured. If you are communicating with any purpose other than getting them to
leave the place, person or object they’ve attached to, they know you are on the
wrong path. They will do actions to appease you, so they can be left to their
devices.
When confronted with someone who realizes what they are up to they usually react in one of two ways: Silence (hiding) or outright attack, they know we are at war, even if we (humans) don’t.
God can and will let
paranormal beings attach to even believers. This is why allowed Satan to attach
and afflict Job. (Job 1:6 - 1:12)
And Paul in the book of 2
Corinthians verse: And lest I should be exalted above measure through the
abundance of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the
messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted above measure.
Unbelievers in Holy Scripture
interpretation and unbelievers, cannot drive out these creatures permanently.
Neither can most believers. (Acts 19:13 - Acts 19:17)
We need to be able to
recognize paranormal workings, know our Holy Scriptures, and understand God’s
will. While observing is inevitable (once your eyes are opened) you should be
armed spiritually, and even then do not engage the paranormal equivalency of
grizzly bears.
