*** Devils cause people and animals to do crazy, violent things.



 
Throughout the Bible, God often spoke of "unclean spirits."  (devils)

Mark 3:11  And unclean spirits, when they saw HIM (Jesus), fell down before HIM, and cried, saying, Thou art the Son of God.

Luke 6:18  And they that were vexed with unclean spirits: and they were healed

Acts 5:16  There came also a multitude out of the cities round about unto Jerusalem, bringing sick folks, and them which were vexed with unclean spirits: and they were healed every one.

Luke 4:36  And they were all amazed, and spake among themselves, saying, What a word is this! for with authority and power HE (Jesus) commandeth the unclean spirits, and they come out.

* Some people are influenced by devils as devils bring thought to their minds and they follow those thoughts and live according to the ideas sent by devils.

* Some people are possessed by devil and these devils move into their being and cause them to do all manner of violent, fierce, irrational acts.  

* Devils work with the flesh to take a person the opposite way of the Spirit of God. 
  
Galatians 5:19-21 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, 20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, 21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

I Corinthians 10:20  But I say, that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils, and not to God: and I would not that ye should have fellowship with devils.

John 14:27  (Jesus says)    Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

John 8:43-44  (Jesus said)  Why do ye not understand MY speech? even because ye cannot hear MY word.

44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.

2 Timothy 1:7  For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.

Jesus casts unclean spirits (devils) out of humans.

Mark 5

1 And they came over unto the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gadarenes.

2 And when HE (Jesus) was come out of the ship, immediately there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit,

3 Who had his dwelling among the tombs; and no man could bind him, no, not with chains:

4 Because that he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been plucked asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces: neither could any man tame him.

(devils:  great strength and uncontrollable) 

5 And always, night and day, he was in the mountains, and in the tombs, crying, and cutting himself with stones.

6 But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshipped HIM,

7And cried with a loud voice, and said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of the most high God? I adjure thee by God, that thou torment me not.

8 For HE (Jesus) said unto him, Come out of the man, thou unclean spirit.

9 And HE (Jesus) asked him, What is thy name? And he (The unclean spirit) answered, saying, My name is Legion: for we are many.

10 And he besought HIM (Jesus) much that HE would not send them away out of the country.

11 Now there was there nigh unto the mountains a great herd of swine feeding.

12 And all the devils besought him, saying, Send us into the swine, that we may enter into them.

13 And forthwith Jesus gave them leave. And the unclean spirits went out, and entered into the swine: and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the sea, (they were about two thousand;) and were choked in the sea.

John 10:10  (Jesus said)  The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.

Matthew 8

28 And when HE (Jesus) was come to the other side into the country of the Gergesenes, there met HIM two possessed with devils, coming out of the tombs, exceeding fierce, so that no man might pass by that way.

29 And, behold, they cried out, saying, What have we to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of God? art thou come hither to torment us before the time?

30 And there was a good way off from them an herd of many swine feeding.

31 So the devils besought HIM, saying, If thou cast us out, suffer us to go away into the herd of swine.

32 And HE said unto them, Go. And when they were come out, they went into the herd of swine: and, behold, the whole herd of swine ran violently down a steep place into the sea, and perished in the waters.

Luke 8

26 And they arrived at the country of the Gadarenes, which is over against Galilee.

27 And when HE (Jesus) went forth to land, there met HIM out of the city a certain man, which had devils long time, and ware no clothes, neither abode in any house, but in the tombs.

28 When he saw Jesus, he cried out, and fell down before him, and with a loud voice said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of God most high? I beseech thee, torment me not.

29 (For HE had commanded the unclean spirit to come out of the man. For oftentimes it had caught him: and he was kept bound with chains and in fetters; and he brake the bands, and was driven of the devil into the wilderness.)

30 And Jesus asked him, saying, What is thy name? And he said, Legion: because many devils were entered into him.

31 And they besought HIM that HE would not command them to go out into the deep.

32 And there was there an herd of many swine feeding on the mountain: and they besought HIM (Jesus) that HE would suffer them to enter into them. And HE suffered them.

33 Then went the devils out of the man, and entered into the swine: and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the lake, and were choked.

34 When they that fed them saw what was done, they fled, and went and told it in the city and in the country.

35 Then they went out to see what was done; and came to Jesus, and found the man, out of whom the devils were departed, sitting at the feet of Jesus, clothed, and in his right mind: and they were afraid.

 Violence and fierceness of the last days, the end times. Devils will destroy you if you allow them to do so.

1 Peter 5  

6 Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time:

7 Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.

8 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:

9 Whom resist stedfast in the faith

Revelation 12:12  ... Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.

1 Timothy 4:1  Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;

💥💥💥

2 Timothy 3:1-5  This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.  For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.

13  But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.

Jesus says:

Matthew 24:12-13  And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.
But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.

(Love of many for the scripture, the Word of God, will wax cold in last days.)

The apostate churches of the last days:

II Thessalonians 2:3-4   Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day (of the Lord) shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;

4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.

In 1982, God said to me:  "The falling away are not people leaving the churches.  The falling away are the churches leaving the scriptures."

NASB    6 And you know what restrains him now, so that he will be revealed in his time. 7 For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only HE (Jesus, The Word) who now restrains will do so until HE  (The Word) is removed.

The scriptures keep antichrist out of the church until the churches fall away from the scripture.  Then antichrist comes into those churches who change portion of scripture to another doctrine.

When Jesus returns, HE will destroy the apostate churches.

2 Thessalonians 2:8-12

8 And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of HIS mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of HIS coming:

9 Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,

10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.

11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:

12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

At all times seek righteousness and follow the way of God as you live on this earth.  For when we go a way opposite to God, we open doors for devils to enter into "our house" and even welcome devils,

Ephesians 4:27  Neither give place to the devil.

Psalm 51:10  Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.

Ephesians 4:26   Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath:
