I agree ...... demons can mimic the likeness of a deceased person for all sorts of reasons. They have fun scaring people in old houses but the #1 reason they "haunt", imho, is to discredit the Bible on its teaching about Heaven and Hell.

My dear parents were unbelievers as far as I know {there's always hope a person may have quietly called out to Jesus at the end}. After my Mom died, my grieving Dad swore emphatically that she would sometimes be standing in the living room, smiling, surrounded by a beautiful glowing light. He told everyone who'd listen that it was no illusion .... that her spirit was really there. He was certain she had come back to comfort him. As an unbeliever at the time I was skeptical but kept an open mind.

A few months later I was saved and learned what paranormal apparitions really are. I had a talk with my Dad -- gently telling him it wasn't my Mother he had seen but a cruel deception by Satan meant to confuse him. I explained that God does not allow the dead to visit the living, and that their eternal destiny is in God's hands depending on if they had faith in Christ or not.

With tears streaming down his face, my sweet Dad heard the Gospel.....all because a demon decided to mess with him. I can't say for sure if he eventually gave his life to Christ at some point but a couple of times when I popped by his house I "caught" him listening to preaching on Christian TV or radio.

I don't know about anyone else, but I for one am getting tired of this crap. I know we're supposed to show nothing but love, but if I see one of those, I'll rip it off the car. If I see a pin like that on clothing, I'll rip it off. And if we have to fight over it then so be it. I'll pray for them after the beating. I'm sick and tired of seeing my faith stomped on.

[Soooo..........what are you trying to say?]

What I'm trying to say is that the next time a group of homo's interrupts a church service by throwing condoms at worshipers, they ought to have the crap beat out of them.

[Okay look. If you slug someone because of something they said you'd go to jail. And Jesus would NEVER approve of that kind of behavior. You would be sinning if you did the things you are suggesting.]

I understand love your neighbor, I understand vengeance is mine. But I also understand that when people disrespected the house of God, Jesus beat the crap out of them.
