Familiar spirits are demon spirits possessing mediums- those who give their will to them, to imitate dead human beings, to make predictions, promote doctrines, etc(1 Tim 4:1-7). Clear examples like in 1 Sam 28. It seems like Samuel actually appeared to Saul, but 1 Chron 10:13 proves it was a familiar spirit imitating Samuel that appeared.

In Acts 16:16, the girl had a spirit of Python. People under this demonic operation would become swollen and give answers in a frezied state of mind. Counterfeit demostrations were made by ventriloquists.
(Lev 19:31)- gives a command, cos they defile, & endpoint of 1 who defiles God's temple is destruction.

Lev 20:6 states the death penalty for those that go after them. v27 also emphasizes the death penalty; a proof that God really detests them totally.

Deut 18:9-14 depicts it as an abominable act;by practice or by association. Reading further is about the Messiah though.
(Isa 8:19; 19:3; 29:4)
Interesting...

For me, it entails a shift of awareness, generally in deep meditation, the mind enters a sublime state and then attention is brought to bear on a particular issue, but it is not always that cut and dried, certain types of motion can also induce the effect (at least in me) in such a state you get ahead of the curve, not necessarily in sequential order but ahead nevertheless.

So for you, meditation is crucial before you unlock it . (I would like to know the method you apply when meditating).

The word of knowledge I know about scripturally though flows like a river after you must have first submitted to the Holy Spirit and received the gift, when you require it, it flows and keeps flowing until you want it to stop (without aid of meditation). It can come via clear direct images often mistaken for visions or by a clear spoken word in ones head whose accounts are very very accurate.

It does not manipulate but only speaks the truth.

Evidences are collections of experiences. They cant be ignored in a flash. i recommended that book, not cos i want to prove a point over you. But to let you see through what someone with your kind of experience went through, etc. i strongly recommend it again pls. May be taken as 2018 project. I wont be able to share my own experience now. I gladly want to know however, what, why the bible you believed on went to the negative side. God affirmed Jesus is His ONLY begotten Son,etc. Any good reaso why youre yet to react2 that?

But I do not recall demoting the bible to a negative side nau, Dave.
I simply said that I am no longer a Christian.
Or is Jesus for Christians alone? tongue

You really need to understand that I have no qualms with Jesus, his history, and the numerous accounts of his life and times.

That said, what I quipped earlier was that the writer never gave a personal account of his experience of the Christ. What he did was try to provide incontrovertible proof of the existence of Lord Yeshua....that's a good stride, but it is not what I need, my dear.

Divine experience you say? What and how would you know that it actually is divine experience? By what markers do you measure?

Plus only one who wishes to be dogmatic while religious would be limited but you can be obedient to the word of God yet not dogmatic hence leading via your life and the "do as I do and not as I say" principle thereby leading none astray.

Almost every religion provides a method to Divine experience, Tantra alone provides 112 methods and there is a method for everyone. Divine experience or more apt, Gnosis is simply indescribable and anyone who describes it to you is quite simply lying. Many people do not even come back from such an experience, it can shatter the psyche. I could write all the words in the world and still not adequately describe it, it is there only to be experienced, this is why Christians at least on this occasion got it right when they say "no man has seen God".

The limitations of religion in my view are all too clear to see, religion does not change you at your core being.

My dear ehn, the thing messed up my mind real good. I had to go spiritual cleansing in MFM
The thing is these spirits can say the truth about someone, like they did Paul, Luke and Silas. But the Holy Spirit stirred up Paul to end the circus show(we don't know how long she must have been following them. They didn't react at 1st, minding their own business). Obviously, the Holy Spirit doesn't agree with such a spirit!!

Indwelling of the Spirit would quench any thirst to want to "search out" the future, destiny, need for foresight.


These were conc heathen practices that has the power to attract even God's people(not filled with the Spirit; explains why Saul went for one). Subsequent kings of Israel, Judah did same cos they didn't want to obey God's side of the bargain of communion-Total Obedience!!

Every word she said was true, but the purpose of satan was to discredit the message of the apostles by making the public think they were in league with the demons.

Not necessarily, it is more about the shift in awareness. The process is always the same but I understand that religious folk have to be seen to draw a line. Had I accepted the entreaties of many I would be passing along "prophecies" in some mega church through a concealed microphone but I chose differently and for that I was excoriated, the margins are very slim pickings.

The example of president, monarch access will be further elaborated on. @mizmycoli

begging questions like: how did they get the new line to call? who gave them the new line, esp when the order that all must drop at the son's desk. do they know its the son that now has the line with him, and not the king, president? nothing like "specially have the line".(its not a rule of partiality). No matter the urgency at hand, the trust on the son to deliver must also be there, since the king entrusted it to the son, then likewise, expectation of such is needed from citizens.


Now based on the order given, wont you as a good citizen, want to obey such an order?(the Prince has the line always though)

But Dave, have you not seen instances where the president gives an order to his aides to ensure unfettered access to certain people?

See ehn, like I said before, I have no qualms with the number of people I have to go through to reach the father. Jesus said he and the father are one. If I have reached the father, and I am sure I did, then I have reached the Christ too...even without realizing.

I think that it is the same for lots of people universally, who might not know the Christ as we know, but still have access to the divine...

Except of course, you are of the exclusive school of thought that declares all but Christians as condemned and unworthygrin

He thinks it's just endearments

He probably thinks it's just a snare Analice is using to win him over to the kingdom, so therefore plays along, albeit with a convenient swollen head
