I have been researching Sleep Paralysis for 2 years and 11 months intensively due to my two experiences that prompted me to see a Dream Doctor and ask quite a few questions. Many people over the years have asked me questions that are very important and need answers if that is even at all possible.These nightmares can be extremely disturbing, but is there any spiritual significance? In Genesis 20 God spoke to Abimelech, warning him not to touch Abraham’s wife, Sarah. Other dreams include Jacob’s ladder (Genesis 28), Joseph dreamed that his brothers would serve him that led to his captivity in Egypt (Genesis 37), as well as his dream about Pharaoh (Genesis 40-41) that led to his being made the second most powerful man in Egypt. The Lord or His angel appeared to others in the Bible, including Gideon (Judges 7), Solomon (1 Kings 3), Nebuchadnezzar (Daniel 2), Mary (Matthew 1), Joseph (Matthew 2), and Pilate’s wife (Matthew 27). None of these dreams, however, with the possible exception of Pilate’s wife’s dream, can really be called a nightmare. So it would appear that God does not usually speak to people through nightmares.
Some people think it's a form of Demonic Visitation and I feel the same. 97% of people say they felt a very malevolent presence and many see shadow people?. A gentlemen once told me he witnessed a dark shadow crawl up the walls and disappear. I have heard similar stories for the last 20 years. Why is it that 97% of people feel the same thing..Evil presence or attacks? Satan and demons are infiltrating our minds during nightmares, but there is nothing in the Bible to substantiate this very common issue. There are no biblical incidents of demonic forces communicating with people during dreams or nightmares. Nightmares are said to be nothing more than the brain’s way of contending with our fears and concerns as it continues to function during sleep cycles. If a Christian experiences continual, frequent nightmares that are interrupting sleep and causing emotional disturbance on a regular basis, then it would be prudent to seek medical attention. But, remember as in all things, prayer is our never fail weapon against any kind of spiritual distress. Christ gave us victory in His name! The war has been won my friends! One of the last things Christ said before leaving earth to be with the Father was "I leave you with the power of The Holy Spirit so you may cast out demons in thy name." Praise God! Praying for just 10 minutes prior to sleep as I feel is the most effective way to calm the mind and prepare for restful sleep.“Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus” (Philippians 4:6-7).
Next week I will discuss the Incubus/Succubus that seems to be a big topic as well as a problem for many. At times our minds can play tricks on us when discussing things that can seep into our subconscious.The Enemy is always on the prowl, make no mistake.
If anyone has any questions, needs, or would like me to discuss a certain topic or have any prayer requests contact me at biblicaldemonologist@gmail.com or 1Demonologychic at Twitter. You're never alone, I care. We all care. These blogs are just my humble opinions on said subjects. God Bless you all and have a fabulous week.

Skinwalker, Shapeshifter and Biblical Worldview
By Reverend Mark Hunnemann
A book I read yesterday --"Hunt for the Skinwalker"-- reminded me of the importance of Christians learning how to think with a biblical worldview...because the worldview it (the book) was espousing was entirely different.
Let me give you a severely compressed summary of the book. (Written by Colm Kelleher, Ph.D and George Knapp) A large ranch in Utah has gained a reputation for being a paranormal Grand Central Station. The Ute and Navajo Indians believe it to be the home of an evil entity called the Skinwalker, and they are deathly afraid of it. Shamans from both tribes practiced black magick and cursed one another and others--like the Mormons surrounding them. Along with other unmentioned events, this is ample reason for demonic activity to flourish.
Enter the "Gormon" family who moved on the property in 1994, totally unaware...Cattle mutilation, shadow figures, UFO sightings galore, strange lights even more galore, sightings of impossibly huge wolves who were immune to gunshots and disappeared at will. .Inside the ranch house objects were disappearing all the time, and outside cattle and farm implements were suspended high in trees in the front yard. Within less than two years the oppressed and broken family were forced to move.Sounds pretty demonic to me, but...
They sold the property to NIDS--National Institute of Discovery Science-which was funded to scientifically explore all the bizarre episodes . Long story short, it was determined that the ranch was a doorway which opened up to limitless universes. It was stated (and this is crucial) that the prevailing view of quantum physics was the belief in infinite universes. The beings from these other universes sometimes entered through the doorway and caused all the paranormal activity. As I understand it, two facts were given as "proof" of infinite universes--an infinite universe and dark matter. Neither of these seem to me to have any bearing on the plausibility of this "revolutionary breakthrough" in science. In fact, the notion is on a collision course with the bible's worldview. Let me give a skeletal outline of what a biblical worldview is comprised of. In my book I go into considerable detail about various aspects of worldview thinking.When something in science is clearly at odds with biblical teaching, then we must bow before the authority of God's Word. Also, I have stated over and over that science is unable to identify spirit entities--that is a theological issue.
"In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth." (Genesis 1:1) The opening verse of the Torah/bible (and chapters 1-3) provide the foundation for thinking with a biblical worldview...which I will mention six components.
1. What is Ultimate reality? According to our text, the infinite/personal God of the bible has always existed, and created the one universe ex nihilo--out of nothing. As Creator, all else is creation...this is the most basic distinction. And as Creator, He also sustains and providentially guides all things. (Col. 1:16-17; Rom. 8:28) He created the visible and invisible. Since He created all reality, He OWNS it/us.The spirit realm is populated by two kinds of entities--angels and demons.GOD is ultimate reality!
Today, allegedly backed by physicists, energy is believed to be ultimate reality...creator and creation distinction has been obliterated. Infinite number of universes is not consistent with the creation account. There is one universe which has been bent by the Fall, but will be renewed.(Rom.8)
2. What is our purpose in life? If our purpose is not God-centered then it is idolatrous. Loving, glorifying, and enjoying God is our purpose.
Once we jettison the God of the bible, there is no rational basis for purpose/meaning in life. That is why direct encounter with the spirit world has such appeal--this experience allegedly brings meaning to life. But it is doomed to fail.
3. What is the nature of history? Gen. 1:1 states that there was a real beginning. The infinite/personal God created the space time continuum, as well as the visible and invisible. In 3:15 the cross is announced for the first time...history is His-story, and He is sovereign over every thing that happens in the flow of history (Eph.1:11) History is moving to a climax...the Second Coming.
Eastern view of reality and history are seen as cyclical--with reincarnation, and the goal of is the outworking of some super-evolutionary jump in cosmic consciousness...allegedly happening NOW!
4. What is the basis of morality? In the Old and New Testaments ethics is grounded in the unchanging character of God. "Be holy because I am holy" says the Lord. Again, with just Gen.1:1 God can tell us what to do because we are His by virtue of His creating us.
With the new energy-centered worldview, there is no adequate basis for ethics. With infinite universes, all is lawless.
5. What are the essential traits of being human? Genesis 1-3 answers this clearly--we are creatures of great nobility, having been made in God's image But we are all sinners as well. (Rom. 3:23), since we fell with Adam, our Federal head. God is infinite/personal and we are finite/personal...making communication with us not only possible but expected. Only God has intrinsic value. Humans have extrinsic value--God values us, therefore we have value.
In an energy/consciousness centered view of reality, then humans are a cosmic accidents--personal warts on the face of an impersonal universe/s. We have no more dignity than the blade of grass.
6. What happens to us after we die? We see in Gen. 1-3 that humans are a body/soul composite. Physical death, which rips the soul from the body, is a consequence of sin. In 3:15 the gospel is announced for first time. God owns us, body and soul-at death our soul returns to Him immediately for judgement. He is the sovereign, holy Judge before whom we must give an account.
Some say that our "free-will" mandates that we must have the ability to stay behind after death if we wish. Our free-will is not absolute...after death we MUST stand before our Maker/Judge. Others say folks get trapped, but this notion is utterly foreign to a biblical worldview where God's sovereignty overrules all else.
This is but a very brief over-view of a biblical worldview...the spectacles through which we should view the world--including the paranormal . Instead of inter-dimensional beings from other universes causing chaos and high strangeness, it is much simpler (ockhams razor) and biblical to attribute it to demonic activity. A biblical worldview enables us to see ghosts through God's eyes. The "Gormons" were clearly under demonic oppression. Skinwalker...Shapeshifter...this remote ranch in Utah was polluted by black magick--unleashing the forces of darkness, which only Jesus can expel.

Issue 128 – The Murder Bordello, Part 3
By Kirby Robinson
Continued from:
Listen
to tonight’s radio show Don’t Get Fooled
by “Six” Again! [7 PST/ 10 EST]
NOW IN PAPERBACK!
There’s no blood in the Murder Bordello--but there is LOTS of ego
Our next project will be called NO BLOOD IN THIS BORDELLO:
THE STORY OF A MODERN DAY PARANORMAL HOAX.
It’ll be an in depth look into the story of how a
community bought into a false account concerning the Murder Bordello in Galena,
Kansas. It’ll show how the para-celebrity community jumped on board for fame
and profit.
The book will also look into the subject of paranormal
ethics, or the lack of ethics, within the paranormal community. Watch for it
this fall.
The Klinge Brothers Separate Legends from Historical Fact!
Galenas Murder Bordello
This is Brad Klinge from Discovery Channel's Ghost Lab. My brother and I have visited hundreds if not thousands of haunted locations coast to coast and border to border. We have interacted with real history first hand. We have been able to separate legends from historical fact, and by doing so we have found that most of the time legends are born from fact. We are good at what we do, and our reputation is impeccable. Our goal is to bridge the gap between legend and history—finding those important pieces of unwritten history that complete the puzzle. Museums run by state university systems around the country are currently building exhibits based on our work and research, so even the experts in the mainstream look up to us. The Galena Murder Bordello gained our attention a couple years ago when we first heard the stories surrounding it. But we have seen the same old thing time after time—a old building that has paranormal activity and a story is made up around the true haunting to make sense of it. It is human nature to try to create an ounce of logic to explain the unknown. But the bordello completely blew us away. We found through our own tedious research that the legends seem to point to the truth. You can’t discount over a hundred years of family histories telling each generation about the murderous bordello. Court documents, police records, and newspaper accounts from back in the day also support its stories. This is what interested us in the bordello so much. Finally, here is a place where legend and fact actually meet, and the paranormal evidence support both. We recently filmed a documentary at the bordello that will be released this fall. This is our story of the bordello based on what we found—both tangible and paranormal. Now the story is going to be told on an international stage. This story is more than just a bordello, more than just murders, more than just local politics, and more than just ghosts. It is about ALL of the activities that culminated in the town in such a short period of time that allowed an imprint to made on the environment. So ready or not, Galena and its bordello are about to have a world-wide spotlight on them, and rightfully so. Galena had an important part in the building of this country, and the vices and malice that came along with success are equally important lessons—not to mention it sits right on historic Route 66. Everyone will know the story. Be watching for an official press release on the documentary in a couple weeks and a trailer as well. Barry and I will be in Galena for the Route 66 Festival next weekend (August 2nd). I’m sure we will be by the bordello a time or two while we are there, so drop by and say hi.

So… we have to ask:
1 You claim that your reputation is impeccable. Then
how can you explain the times that you’ve been caught faking scenes, making
false claims, and multiple cases of fake EVP’s?
2 You claim to have investigated hundreds, if not thousands
of haunted sites. How many times were you paid to hunt by the owners of the
site?
When you were paid to ghost hunt, how many places did
you find that weren’t haunted?
3 How many times did you run into demonic spirits? How
did you get rid of such spirits?
4 Please list the names of these museums at the state
run universities that are changing displays due to your findings.
5 Please list the names of these experts that are “looking
up to you.”
6 Point out any valid historical proof that you found
[that no one else has] that the house on Main Street is the Murder Bordello.
Why did you try to cover up the contact you had with Carolyn
McLean who knows the truth that that house is not related to the murders?
7 If this research is so tedious, why mince words? Let
people know you find research to be boring and monotonous?
8 You state that “legend and fact actually meet…” Is
this the first time in your career this has happened?
Russ Keeler admits that there is no “REAL” proof that
it’s the Murder Bordello but he has a lot of crap to back up his claims:
Note he says that there is NO proof [historical]. He
doesn’t really address the proof [historical] that it isn’t in the house but he
sure has a lot of paranormal proof.
What’s paranormal proof? Photos of ghosts? EVP’s [Electronic
Voice Patterns]? They are the so-called voices of the dead responding to voices
of the living.
Can this be proven to be true? No. If you listen to
the majority EVPS, the voices barely manage to croak out a few words. Why can’t
the dead speak in complete sentences? Do we suddenly lose our ability to speak
when we die?
But we’re putting the cart first here…
1 You’d have to decide if ghosts are for real.
2 Are ghosts completely honest when they talk to us? Look
at it from the ghost’s viewpoint. Would ghost hunters respond to a Joe the
Plumber? Probably not. But a killer “madam” gets lots of attention.
3 What about the people who say that there are no
ghosts--only angels and demons? I find it odd that few, if any, ghost hunters
ever capture an angel, GOD or His Son Jesus Christ.
So if you get an EVP from a demon how can you be sure
that it’s truthful?
As you can see, there is no real PARANORMAL PROOF that
a serious historian will accept. What Russ Keeler, the Klinge Brothers, and
others hope you only see is the word proof.
OTHERS ARE STARTING TO SEE THE LIGHT!

Don’t Get Fooled by “Six” Again! – Wednesday, July 31, 2013
Because once is more than enough!
Last week we just broke the surface to the real story
of Paranormal State’s “I Am Six”
episode. The show featured a fake case of demonic possession. That wasn’t the
only thing being faked…so was the evidence, the team, and even the priest! Best
of all, psychic/medium Chip Coffey, who once publicly stated that he wasn’t a
demonologist, stepped in and declared the demon was gone. Two weeks later,
Laura had such a negative reaction to holy water she had to be rushed to the
hospital.
About a year later, PRS presented a follow up episode
called “The Possession: Return of Six.” This hour-long episode features Laura
and family, along with a new demonic case located down in Kentucky. [The events
featured in the Kentucky case happened in the mid-90s when Ryan Buell was in
high school watching The X Files]. Since
“I Am Six” enjoyed a ratings bonanza for the series, fans and the production
company wanted to know what happened to Laura, so more outlandish claims and
stunts take place.
Even at the end of the second episode the story didn’t
stop. Instead, the legend kept growing.
Here’s a link to the episode:
Tune in, call in, and be informed.
We have a book that looks at the case in-depth: Never Mock God: An Unauthorized
Investigation into Paranormal State’s ‘I Am Six’ Case. It’s available in

Christians Quit Satire
By Stephen Piersall
Satan is telling all in his kingdom that thanks to the media, they have established a stronghold within humanity. More TV shows, movies, books, magazines, and events across the world are promoting sinful ways of life. More people have stopped going to their local churches altogether. Many Pastors are going away from the teachings of the Bible and inserting their own beliefs, interpretations, and taking scores of people with them, as the Bible foretells. As a result, we now have more people sinning by dabbling with; ghost hunting, Wicca, Occult, earth-bound spirits, purgatory, Mediums and Psychics, etc. Spiritual Warfare is ongoing, and we are winning the battle with little effort. The human race is falling because of pride and ignorance. What a bunch of numbskulls! Let us prove it to you.
Christians really believe they can please “God.” Since the victory of getting humanity to sin at the Garden of Eden, man has been born into a sinful nature. Jesus came to make them a new creation, if they only just believed in “Him.” They are incapable of getting “right with God”! “The Galatian fascination,” where now they are right with God. They feel they have to keep up a certain standard to please Him. It is as if trying to please everyone, which we know, is impossible. To please one group of people you are invariably going to displease another group! They need to resign themselves to the fact Christianity is not a popularity contest. Ultimately, they just have to follow God’s voice, walk in the truth, and live a life of discernment of the Holy Spirit.
Funny too, how Spiritual Warfare exists; they think they can cause a change. These humans are always seeking the easy way out; ghost hunting, seeing psychics, after the occult and witchcraft. Some of these knuckleheads actually believe that going to a person’s home and doing a cleansing gets rid of us evil spirits. Ignorance is bliss and rampant across the globe. Why would anybody think that doing a Blessing would cleanse a home when the family has no religion, and willingly partakes of sins and wants to continue to live life that way? Why anyone would want to quit; Smoking, drugs, alcohol, unforgiveness, lust, sex sins, etc? That is just crazy, who doesn’t like to have their cake and eat it too? We have them so fooled that they have established homosexual Pastors, marriage laws that promote same-sex health benefits, and even killing babies through abortion.
Did you know that God does not want them to try to do what is right and avoid what is wrong? Just knowing the difference and for them to make their own decisions and try to be Christ like. God only wanted Adam and Eve to live well in relationship with Him, which is the same for today. That fellow Paul, who was a great example for us when he was Saul wrote in Romans 7 where he explains his problem of knowing what is good and bad and feeling he should try to live, based upon that!
It is also comical to watch humans pray with no confidence. “If it be your will” is the ultimate cop-out! Their Bible says his will is that things on Earth would be as they are in Heaven. If they do not know his will, ask God! After all, he is not looking to give them permission to exercise his will but to show it.
Have you ever noticed how people rate their sins? Clearly, the Bible does not rate sins as better as or worse than one another does. Why is it that so-called Christians are willing to walk down the street with signs to show how much “God hates gay people” and yet there are no Christians picketing restaurants because (some) people in, there are being gluttonous? Why are they not out on the corners, helping the homeless, praying for healing for the sick? This way society sees them as “Violent Christians,” and nobody will want salvation. Therefore, more souls will be taking the elevator downward.
They have some great family value’s reality TV shows too. Most women are dressed provocatively, showing off expensive jewelry, fighting, and cursing with each other. Same goes with the televangelist shows where pastors living a lifestyle of the rich and famous. Even when the camera pans around the congregation, notice all the people having all their gold jewelry out and wearing expensive clothes, trying to be better than the next one. Talk about your fake Holy Rollers!
It seems casual for them to feel good about themselves when they look around their immediate circle of influence, maybe knowing the Bible better than their friends have. If they shed their pride, it would be carefree for them to feel bad. Maybe put down the picket signs, look around, and see a church in the next town over and notice how full their parking lot is and how many people leave a church with love and happiness in their hearts. Getting into comparison is never healthy, neither guilt nor pride is great places to go! Instead, let them just compare to one person. Jesus!
How does your life measure up to the life of Jesus? Can we truly say, “It’s no longer I who live but Christ in me”?

Funny too, how Spiritual Warfare exists; they think they can cause a change. These humans are always seeking the easy way out; ghost hunting, seeing psychics, after the occult and witchcraft. Some of these knuckleheads actually believe that going to a person’s home and doing a cleansing gets rid of us evil spirits. Ignorance is bliss and rampant across the globe. Why would anybody think that doing a Blessing would cleanse a home when the family has no religion, and willingly partakes of sins and wants to continue to live life that way? Why anyone would want to quit; Smoking, drugs, alcohol, unforgiveness, lust, sex sins, etc? That is just crazy, who doesn’t like to have their cake and eat it too? We have them so fooled that they have established homosexual Pastors, marriage laws that promote same-sex health benefits, and even killing babies through abortion.

It is also comical to watch humans pray with no confidence. “If it be your will” is the ultimate cop-out! Their Bible says his will is that things on Earth would be as they are in Heaven. If they do not know his will, ask God! After all, he is not looking to give them permission to exercise his will but to show it.

Why Do We Choose to Live with a Paranormal Presence?
By Reverend Mark Hunnemann
There was an unusual amount of feedback re last weeks blog--The Creeping Darkness--and it was profoundly moving. I want to pursue in more detail this question: why do we choose to live with paranormal activity? This may not apply directly to you personally, but chances are it does apply to someone you know...and even if it doesn't, I think we should try to be aware of our changing spiritual landscape. In the last three weeks 10 different families have contacted me, wanting to know how to get rid of a long-lived evil presence in their homes. Every situation is heartbreaking, and I desperately want to help.So, let me list some reasons, and then make a comment or two.
1. As bad as things are, I am afraid that any attempts to "fix it" will only anger the entities and make our lives even more miserable. How can I be sure?
2. "I have Native American in me and we tend to see the spirit realm as a natural part of life...my mom was a medium, wiccan (fill in the blank), and I have seen sprites, shadows, animal spirits since I was a child.
3. I can sense that this presence is positive and benevolent, and it has never hurt anybody...maybe startled us a few times..
4. The little girl said she needed me
5. This "presence" has been here for generations, and I do not like change...even if it might be good change.
6. I have tried to get help but was afraid folks would think I was crazy and take my kids away.
7. Umm....I have tried but 8 pastors have made me feel like dirt, in their own distinctive ways.
8. I have given up hope and I want to die..so, what difference does it make?
9. I am emotionally attached to the entity that makes love to me
10. The paranormal investigative team had all the latest and greatest in technology--if they determined that entities are innocuous, who am I to disagree?
11. Being part of a paranormal investigative team, I expect to have some spirits follow me home
12. I find the children spirits entertaining...keep me from feeling lonely.
13. They threatened to kill me or a loved one if we tried to get help.
14. My husband does not see/hear the activity and refuses to allow anybody to come over and help.
15. I am fascinated with the spirit realm, and since my church is dead, I love having direct contact with the supernatural.in my home!
Let me comment on the last one first. It seems to me that our culture has become so fascinated with the paranormal that it has become the new normal. In the span of about twenty years, the spiritual landscape of America has changed dramatically.There is a saying, "The very best things, when twisted, become the very worst things." Our longing for personal contact and communion with the supernatural (God), is a huge, salient aspect of being human. However, because we have all sinned (Rom.3:23), we cannot--indeed MUST NOT--seek direct, immediate contact with spiritual reality. The essence of the gospel is that we approach God mediately (not immediately) through the Person and work of Jesus. He is the only mediator between God and man."For there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus." (1 Tim.2:5) This verse tells us that there is salvation in only Jesus, but it also shows us how horribly twisted it is to approach spiritual reality in our own strength. We can have spiritual reality and direct access to God--through Jesus Christ. This text is also at odds with the notion of spirit guides...or saints praying for us.
1. I can sympathize because often intervention does make things worse. A typical investigation with collecting EVP's will make it worse. So will a preacher/priest who only blesses the house without first expelling demons--like throwing water on hornets nest--it angers the demons.We cannot fully discuss this now, but right person WILL get rid of demonic presence.
2. We are to ..."bring all of our thoughts captive to obey Christ".(2 Cor. 10:5) As biblical Christians we are to have our minds transformed...A biblical worldview sees these spirit manifestations as abnormal--as demonic intrusions.
3. The Word of God is to have primacy over our very fallible affective perceptions of spirit entities. Demons can project an aura of light, peace, and even "holiness" (angel of Light)
4. It ain't a little girl, and it wants to kill you.
5. It is well known that many folks detest change, even if they know it will benefit them. Is Jesus your Lord, or not? Then CHANGE!
6 & 7. Please contact me and I will help or get somebody confidential/competent who can.help you.
8. PLEASE do not give up hope because there is HOPE in Jesus!
9. As demonic sexual activity increases, as horrid as it may sound, a growing number of men and women are experiencing this sexually based addiction. I would like to help anyone is experiencing this.
10. As wonderful as science is, it is UNABLE to determine the identity of preternatural entities.
11. I will say it again...assume that all paranormal activity is demonic.
12. What kind of God would leave young children here? Pure evil spirits who will entertain you to death.
13 All the more reason to see the urgency of ousting these unclean spirits
14. Actually, the skeptical husband is likely under the spell of demonic influence--causing or amplifying denial. Find a time when he won't be there...must obey God rather then man.
In all these scenarios, demonic influence is likely at work. Infesting demons have the ability to project whole patterns of thoughts or emotions which are designed to dissuade you from getting assistance. Usually it is projected in such a way that affected person hears it in his own mind-voice...but slowly turns one away from truth and reality. Since they desire to destroy family unity as well, there is often "targeting" that occurs--one spouse may not see/hear anything, but even this is diabolically amplified and a hyper-cynicism begins in skeptical spouse...causing further friction. This unresolved friction can itself give the demons even more of a foothold in your home. "Do not let the sun go down on your anger, lest you give the devil a foothold."(Eph. 4:26-27) Then it turns into a vicious cycle..
Also, if a person in an infested house even mentions getting help out loud (since demons cannot read minds), then the demon-pack will do all in its power to ensure that that does not happen...but we are more than conquerors in Christ Jesus!.
Okay, enough about demons. "So, whether you eat or drink,or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God." (1 Cor. 10:31) Every aspect of our lives has the potential to honor God. As Christians, we yearn to bring honor and glory to our most excellent King and Redeemer! This text I quoted can and should be applied to EVERY thing we do...everything--let us ask God to teach us how to live existentially (moment by moment) for His glory. Certainly...most certainly, how we view and interact with the spirit realm must be done to the glory of God. Are your beliefs and practice toward the paranormal being done to the glory of God? If you desire deep spiritual reality, then apply this verse to everything you think, do, and say. Then you will glorify God and enjoy Him immensely.

Do You Believe in Angels?
By Lisa Grace
Recently I was asked in an interview if I believe in angels or the supernatural as the way it appears in my fiction books.
Yes, I believe in angels. Have I knowingly seen any? No.
However, I have met some disturbed people that I believe are possessed, and no, the mental health counseling and medication did not help them.
Do I believe events could happen the way they do in my books? Yes and no. It’s a work of fiction and as such, many incidences are over the top. I believe in today’s modern world the supernatural one does prefer to remain hidden. It’s easier to operate when people don’t believe it exists. I believe all “ghosts” are demonic manifestations leading people away from truth.
If a being, (no matter how beautiful as Satan can appear as an angel of light) contradicts the Holy Scriptures, it is evil and sent to lull people into believing a false view of the afterlife to their detriment. The devil is recruiting for his army through deception.
Your best defense? Know your scriptures. Understand the supernatural world and its goals. Put on the armor of Christ and be prepared for spiritual warfare.
