Okay, so how do you explain that schitzophrenics often state that they hear voices telling them to commit certain evil acts? (This is, of course, an extreme example.) Janae |

Again, you have misquoted me. What I said was, "If you are not being tempted by Satan, you MIGHT BE running with him!" When Jesus resisted Satan, he was not running with him. Again, you have made an absurd statement, and you are trying to make it appear that I am saying foolish things. Satan sometimes uses our bad decisions, past sins, etc. to attack us. God has put our sins as far as the East is from the West, yet some people get attacked by Satan with thinking about past sins, and this can steral their joy. Satan is the destroyer. I, of course, accept your apology. But, you have done it again in this post. Not exactly in the same way, but you have misquoted me. Janae. |

Yes, you are right about the flesh being our biggest enemy, and Satan uses that. However, a lot of people don't even admit that Satan exists, and I guess I just wanted to make the point that it is Satan who places temptations before us, and they can be very subtle, so you have to be on guard against him and them. It would be foolish to ignore them. And, yes, if we submit to the flesh, we can stumble and fall. You are right about discerning good and evil. I am blessed because at my church, there is a true man of God in the pulpit who seeks God first and wants God to be in charge; he wants God's agenda. He just did a series of lessons on how the flesh is our biggest enemy and how Satan get the blame for probably more than he deserves. But, Satan is real and he is tempting us, and he is sly and deceitful. I don't know what you mean by people who live "in the rear" being the ones who are "bothered" by Satan. I disagree. I believe the stronger you are for God, the stronger your temptations are. Billy Graham, for example. He has probably had more attacks from Satan than you or I could even think of. It is how we handle those attacks that is key. Janae |

I am always amazed at how people on this board like to put words into other peoples mouths. I did not say that demons were everywhere, or omnipresent. There are millions of demons and there are probably certain ones assigned to each believer. We have three enemies in this world: The flesh, Satan and ourselves. You are right in what you say in your last paragraph. Yes, if you risist the devil, i.e. do not submit to temptation, the devil will flee from you. But his job (and he does it very well) is to create havoc in our lives, and that is what he loves doing. He will never stop, not as long as we are breathing. You get through one test and trial, and there is another one right on its heals. If you are not being tempted by Satan, you might be running with him! Janae. |

Much goes on in the spiritual realm which we cannot see. And, perhaps it is a good thing we can't see it, as a rule! Demons are real and their job is to make our lives miserable. They do not tell the future. How absurd. They do, however, know what goes on it your life and can hear your conversations and even, I think, read your mind. If Satan knew the future, he would never have allowed Jesus to die on the cross. I didn't say Satan couldn't hear us praying in tongues. I said he couldn't understand what we were saying, because it is just between God and the spirit of the person praying. Some people are more spiritual than others. Some people can see into the spiritual realm and others cannot. It is up to God what He reveals to us. Yours in Christ, Janae |

Satan is a real angel of darkness. He has much power on this earth. He is the prince of the power of the air. He is the Prince of Persia who Michael the Arch Angel was fighting in Daniel. He transforms himself into an angel of light. He is not an ugly beast. His pride is what got him in touble in the first place. Isaiah 14:12-19 is about Satan, as is Ezekiel 28:l2-19. He is our adversary, yes. He is God's adversary, also, and he wants to destroy everything that is of God, including you and me. He wants us dead. So, don't you be fooled. God created Satan; not to be evil; that was Satan's choice. But God created him and He can handle him. He already has. The victory has been won through Jesus death and resurrection, and Satan knows this. But he wants to take everyone he can with him to the firey pit of hell. Janae. |

Yes, Satan and his demons can read our minds. The mind is the battleground. We are to test the spirits to see if they are from God. That is how Fortune Tellers can be acurate. They listen to demons. This is why praying in tongues is so beneficial--because it is between you and God only--Satan and his cohorts cannot understand what is being prayed. It is your Spirit and God's Spirit communicating. Janae |

153 | what is back sliding | Luke 6:46 | Praise Be To God | 138528 | ||
Thank you for your note, John Pilgrim. I agree with you wholeheartedly. My righteousness is but filthy rags, and I know it only too well. Backsliding is serious business. It is committing sins against God with no regard for Him or for what is right. I, myself, have recently been described by God Himself as a "backslidden daughter." God took away someone from me because my attitude toward him was not holy and righteous. I tried for 6 years to not be attracted to this person, but it seemed like I just could not overcome my feelings for him, so God removed him from my life. In fact, I was the one who had to tell him I had to give up his fellowship and friendship. I am no longer a backslidden daughter because God, in His mercy and His grace has solved the problem for me, since I could not do it myself. The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away. That is the truth. The Lord requires much when you are in a ministry, and aren't we ALL in a ministry of some kind, whether it be at our workplace or at school, or wherever we spend our time? I was in prison ministry and I was attracted to the prisoner who was a lot younger than me. I could not overcome it, though I tried desperately. So God told me, "No more, daughter," and took him away. Yes, backsliding is serious business. Praise Be To God! Janae |

154 | what does it mean to suffer loss? | 1 Cor 3:15 | Praise Be To God | 138521 | ||
Just another note on the carnal Christian. He is the one who walks in the flesh and not in the spirit. He desires the praise of men, rather than the praise of God. He is not a servant, but wants to be praised and waited on. Not a pretty sight. I don't understand how carnal Christians can be so. They surely must read the Word and know the truth. How can they act so? It is a puzzlement to me! Just a thought. Janae |

155 | what is back sliding | Luke 6:46 | Praise Be To God | 138467 | ||
With God, you are always moving forward; there is no standing still. If you are not moving forward, you are moving back. Backsliding is neglecting God and the things of God. It can be to a point where you could lose your salvation if you are not careful. | ||||||

158 | WTB, Where do you see 144K is the church | Rev 14:1 | Praise Be To God | 138443 | ||
The Church will be in the millions, not 144 thousand. The 144,000 is 12,000 from each of the 12 tribes of Israel. The Bible states this quite plainly. How can you say that 144,000 is not a concrete number? Janae |

159 | Looking for verse on God's opinion of us | Rom 14:16 | Praise Be To God | 138431 | ||
John 12:43: "For they loved the praise of men more than the praise of God," or Acts 5:29: "Then Peter and the other apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men." Maybe one of these is what you are looking for? Blessings, Janae |

160 | Who is "righteous?" | Prov 14:32 | Praise Be To God | 138390 | ||
Greetings in Christ, Romans 3:10 says: "As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:". When we put on the armour of God, we put on Christ's righteousness, and we are clothed in His righteousness, but our own unrighteousness is like filthy rags (Isaiah 64:6: "But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags". Only in Christ can we be righteous, and we are made righteous through Him. All Praise Be Unto God, Janae |
