1 | Do ALL demons have names? | Bible general Archive 1 | Morant61 | 43594 | ||
Greetings Jdthcstl! I hate to keep harping on the same point over and over again, but it is important. This is a Bible Study Forum. Would you please provide Scripture to back up what you are saying. Scripture does not ever say that doing evil makes one a demon, nor does it say that doing good makes one an angel. Rev. 12:7 indicates that angels were being who lived in Heaven. There was a war in Heaven and 1/3 of the angels were cast out - along with Satan. These angel are what we call demons. People cannot become angels, nor can they become demons. Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

This is just common sense. If a person does good deeds, they are serving God. And if they do Evil things they are serving Satan. So to call a good person an Angel, and an Evil person a Demon. Is not Against Gods laws. | ||||||

With all due respect, the world is full of people who remake God in the image of their own common sense. But that just puts him in a box of our own dimensions. God is a lot bigger than our common sense and often stand in stark contrast to common sense. As Paul noted, "... the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God." (1 Corinthians 1:18) I hope you will come to trust his word and abandon common sense when it contradicts what God has revealed. I have learned over the years that when I conform my thinking to what the Bible teaches, things that seemed to make no sense at all eventually do. And as others have pointed out, this is a Bible study forum; truth and our struggles to grasp it count for much more than common sense opinions here. I commend Proverbs 3:5 to you: "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight."
