the devil's at the footstep of the church

i was wondering if anyone believed in "demons" (the . . . evil entity) being present in people's lives
no doubt, many ppl experience the presence of God - and i thank Him for that - but, in regard to the former - i'd like to know what y'all think about that -

we had that discussion at youth group b4 and it scared the shiet outta sum pplz...especially that stuff about the ouija board haha
but umm...i think they do exist, like there may be sum pplz hu hav demons in them and go around doing evil things w/out realizing it...i read a book that wuz sumtin like that and it scared me reali badly...i've never seen the exorcist tho, and i guess there mite be sum cases where it wuz that extreme, but those must be very rare.

it's scary stuff - i remember the first and only time i used a ouiji board, i asked about my grandfather, whom i've never met -
and the ouiji said he was in hell - and God wouldn't give him another chance - it was . . . horrible - i ran home crying - and the ouiji said i could find the answer why in "ruth" in the bible - haha
crazy stuff - if we're not careful, we make ourselves more vulnerable to that stuff........

not something to be played with

well.. of course they exist.

if you believe the words and stories in the bible
you would believe that demons do exist.

Mark 1
34Then He healed many who were sick with various diseases, and cast out many demons; and He did not allow the demons to speak, because they knew Him.

Luke 4
Many Healed After Sabbath Sunset
(1) 40 When the sun was setting, all those who had any that were sick with various diseases brought them to Him; and He laid His hands on every one of them and healed them. 41And demons also came out of many, crying out and saying, "You are the Christ,[1] the Son of God!"
And He, rebuking them, did not allow them to speak, for they knew that He was the Christ.

BOTTOM LINE:
YES, DEMONS DO EXIST

BUT QUESTION:
the crazy people out on the streets today..
are they possessed by demons?
or are they just.. like that naturally?

well, i have heard testimony from this one leader/person at this christian retreat/sports camp on demon possesion......it was while he served in the marines/navy (forget) n met another person who was a satan worshipper, n after talking several times, this guy wanted to kno more about Christ, n he came to the counselors bunk in the middle of the nite, n he prayed with him, to accept Christ......while they were praying, the counselor peeked out once, and saw flashing lights above the guys head, and he believes that was spiritual warfare between demons n angels.......also my grandmother also talked about her father in china, who was a pretty high buddhist monk, with the holes burned into his head, etc, was able to go into trances and write 'messages' from demons/spirits........so i definitely believe in demonic forces/spirits....

for those people that ask me how do u kno God exists, i usually say do u believe there is evil? they say yea. then i say well do u believe for there 2 be evil there must be good? they usually say yes or i prove it 2 them. then i ask do u believe in hell or demons or the devil? most of the time yea. then since if there is evil there must be good therefore if there is hell there must be heaven. done.
my 2 cents of the day
