Where do evil Spirits come from? D Bible never attributes evil spirits to Satan! by AdamBrody1(m): 7:10pm On Dec 11, 2008
Seems like silly question, doesn't it? At least it would to most Bible believers. Evil spirits come from Satan. But that's not what the Bible says.

The phrase "evil spirit(s)" occurs 14 times (in 13 verses) in the Bible, in 8 of which the evil spirits were sent directly and explicitly by God.

The first evil spirit was sent by God to kill people in war.

Then God sent an evil spirit between Abimelech and the men of Shechem; and the men of Shechem dealt treacherously with Abimelech.

Judges 9:23

God sent the next evil spirit to cause Saul to have a mental breakdown. (But luckily, David plays his harp and makes Saul's "evil spirit from the Lord" go away.)

But the Spirit of the LORD departed from Saul, and an evil spirit from the LORD troubled him. And Saul's servants said unto him, Behold now, an evil spirit from God troubleth thee. Let our lord now command thy servants, which are before thee, to seek out a man, who is a cunning player on an harp: and it shall come to pass, when the evil spirit from God is upon thee, that he shall play with his hand, and thou shalt be well.

1 Samuel 16:14-16

And it came to pass, when the evil spirit from God was upon Saul, that David took an harp, and played with his hand: so Saul was refreshed, and was well, and the evil spirit departed from him.

1 Samuel 16:23

Then God sent an evil spirit to cause Saul to prophesy and sit with a javelin in his hand.

And it came to pass on the morrow, that the evil spirit from God came upon Saul, and he prophesied in the midst of the house: and David played with his hand, as at other times: and there was a javelin in Saul's hand.

1 Samuel 18:10

And the evil spirit from the LORD was upon Saul, as he sat in his house with his javelin in his hand: and David played with his hand.

1 Samuel 19:9

The other 6 "evil spirit" occurrences are in the New Testament. The Bible doesn't say where the evil spirits came from, but they are usually associated with some type of illness (Which come from God, right?).

And in that same hour he cured many of their infirmities and plagues, and of evil spirits; and unto many that were blind he gave sight. Luke 7:21

And certain women, which had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities, Mary called Magdalene, out of whom went seven devils, Luke 8:2

So that from his body were brought unto the sick handkerchiefs or aprons, and the diseases departed from them, and the evil spirits went out of them. Then certain of the vagabond Jews, exorcists, took upon them to call over them which had evil spirits the name of the Lord Jesus, saying, We adjure you by Jesus whom Paul preacheth. ,  And the evil spirit answered and said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are ye? And the man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, and overcame them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded. Acts 19:12-16

So the Bible is fairly clear on evil spirits: they are either sent directly by God or their origin is unknown. The Bible never attributes evil spirits to Satan.

Adam Brody , I've seen some of your other posts and it's obvious that you have a problem with Jesus. Now "If our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them" (2 Cor. 4:3-4).

The only message for you now is a message of salvation. For God So loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. Surrender your life to Christ.

Allah (Not same as Jehovah) cannot save you, Mohammed cannot Save you only Jesus can Save you, because He is the only way, the truth and the life, no man comes to the Father but by Him. He Loves you and wants you saved.

I declare today that your heart will not know peace and you will not experience peace until you surrender to Jesus, in the Mighty Name of Jesus. May God have mercy on you and SAVE YOU before you physically die, that you may not have your place in the lake of fire and brimstone.

Give your life to him today and he will give you rest. Give your life to him and He will come to dwell with you and open your eyes to receive revelation knowledge on His Word.

He has a plan and purpose for you, but you'll continue to struggle until your connect to His perfect will for your life which includes your salvation.

The nature worshipping  six ether beings were possessed by spirit gods and goddesses known collectively as leviathan which came about due to the whole of nature descending in reasonableness and positivity which also affecting the positive spiritual beings from the top half of the circle so that they degraded into blood thirsty deities that required human sacrifice and instigated wars  and death so that they could have blood to feed from  by also creating religions which required these blood sacrifices so as to appease angry and vengeful gods. Around six thousand years prior to the decent to rock bottom at 3 south the Caucasian race were extracted out of the hindu/phonecian races whose deity was Krishna or Christ. This signified the end of the six ether beings power and the rise of the Caucasian albino races. Whose deity was and is god who is also called ghost. This ghost signifies the death of six ether or reduced creative power and the advent of ghost or vampire because a ghost has to get its life from somewhere. This is the spiritual deity of the Caucasian who is the physical child of ghost and whose work it is to do the will of the ghost which is to create death so as to feed the death ethers in the atmosphere. The original African being has become and is the food for the ghost because they have been spell bound by the religion of the ghost which is god and six ether gasses known as Jesus or gasses. These spirit beings that are part of leviathan, vampire their life from the original African by first hypnotizing them with the religion of the gospel or ghost spell and then feeding from them. The reign of the Caucasian or ghost has been for six thousand years and was the moon cycle or lunatic cycle which is a cycle of  the deferment of justice  through mercy and forgiveness, ruled by the astrological sign Virgo whose deity was the moon also called sin. This six thousand year period ended in 1962 when the revolutionary upswing began which is a solar cycle and increase in positive gases. This upswing is ruled by the sign Libra or the balance of justice and is a time of judgment or Armageddon. Scientific/spiritually it signifies the beginning of the powers of reasoning entering into the consciousness of those beings that are nine ether by nature and the breaking of the spell of leviathan  that was cast upon them. This is why the so called black race should now strive to give up the ghost and six ether religions. And to and liberate themselves through the powers of right reasoning by the help of positive forces in nature.
