Demons, is there any evidence they even exist?

[Eddi]

I also asked why you stopped taking them in 2016 and wouldn’t you rather be off of the drugs and be free from them?

I stopped taking them as I didn't like how they made me fat

I now know that I'd rather be fat and sane than slim and mad

Lesson learnt

Yeah, I hear that, well I’m not settling for a mediocre life and continuing to follow hard after Jesus Christ, I’m going to continue to pray for people, see people set free, have eternal life, live victorious lives in the Lord.

No I didn’t, I think if you re-read my comment you might see different. By the way my family and all those around me thought I was insane, lived like it too, give me a joint and I was all mellowed out, drink and drug till I die was where I was headed, why? Cause I couldn’t deal with life.

Again, prescription medications are not the same as illegal drugs or alcohol. Would you tell someone with a heart problem to stop taking heart medicine? Would you tell an epileptic to stop taking seizure medication? Mental illness is not different in that regard. Again, please leave medicine to the medical professionals.

I have no problem with working with doctors, they do their part and I do mine. I don’t cross over into that field,

The part you miss and keep on going with your comments…

As you keep comparing your history of drug use and alcohol to prescription medications and say how great you are without them...

Yes because there are similarities, but you and others on the other hand have been satisfied with people being bound to drugs that have side effects like the other member who stopped because he wasn’t happy being fat because of the drugs. That’s his options fat and sane or slim and mad.
I’m not ok with that and would rather present another option of complete healing and freedom found in Jesus Christ. You see I’m not a healer but He is and He healed me and I’m not bound by anything now. Is this possible for everyone? Yes Does everyone get healed? No. Everyone Jesus touched did get healed and delivered though. Everyone born again does get complete healing in the end though, eternal life and a new body and that’s what my hope is and what the Bible declares.

So again, you are comparing illicit drug or alcohol use to getting medications prescribed by a licensed medical professional. So as I said...please stop. You don't know what you're talking about.

 

[Apostle John]

That's what you're doing. Notice how you didn't answer my question.
We don't do science by positing unexplained magic as a cause of anything.

Come on, it’s obvious you do. Psychologists, as you have said you are, posit they have dissected the human mind. The alpha male psychologists follow, Freud, assumes there’s a subconscious mind. It’s all fantasy nonsense that can’t be quantified or identified. You, psychologists, need to demonstrate without cause where consciousness comes from if there’s no creator God, you can’t just assert nonsense for a cause.

 

[Dan From Smithville]

IF you believe what Jesus did on the earth then you would have the answer without wavering or insulting me in return. Anyway, have a good evening, thanks for conversation.

I did not insult you. You insulted me and I am not very happy about that or being accused of insulting you when I did not.

 

[Dan From Smithville]

It's not evidence of Dark Matter.
It's evidence of the Spaghetti Monster.
How do you know it is matter, and not a monster?

I guess monsters are like the demons you claim. Around but never found. Made out of nothing, unseen and undetectable.

Yes I do know what I’m talking about but apparently you do not understand what I’m saying. Some drugs are prescribed by doctors nowadays and legal. All to help people cope so please spare me. I don’t need drugs to cope with life anymore. The drugs are just different but the purpose is the same, sorry you can’t see that.
The drugs help in one area so people can function but health wise there are other problems. You can read what he said and why he stopped taking them in the first place. Better than not taking them but still would rather not if he didn’t have to.
I asked God for help and He showed up for me and countless others! Why shouldn’t everyone know this?

Everyone needs coping strategies. Like religion, for example. Some are healthier than others. Your belief that prescribed medications monitored by a doctor are like drug addiction is not an informed opinion. So again, no, you don't know what you're talking about.

And I'd rather be able to wave a magic wand and make all my problems go away too. But that isn't reality.

Because it's snake oil rather than medicine.

Besides, he's already a Christian anyway. Oh let me guess, not a "real" one, not the right kind.

That’s not what I said, I used drugs to cope with life, it worked for a while but then it stopped working. I wasn’t a drug addict at first, over time I was addicted to the drugs, they didn’t work anymore and were killing me.
If you’re saying that the prescribed drugs don’t have side effects, that your body doesn’t build up a tolerance well then maybe you should re-think your comments.

Waving a magic wand is wizardry and demonic. If that’s how you view a relationship with Jesus Christ and walking with God then you really should stop talking because you have no idea whatsoever.

I didn't say either of those things. You don’t think doctors who treat people every day know that? Again, you should leave medicine to the medical professionals. Take your sales pitch elsewhere.

 

[Kelly of the Phoenix]

Is creation natural or supernatural?

Natural or God could have saved John the Baptist. Funny how God can’t heal objectively fatal wounds.

 

[ElishaElijah]

Being healed by the power of God is not snake oil and if anyone has repented, believed the Gospel, given their life to Jesus Christ and born again they are a believer.

LOL that's what you're promising to mentally ill people if they go to one of your revivals or whatever. If you want to make your religion sound less like magic, stop promising people magical results.

Just stop.

I said the purpose of the drugs were the same whether prescribed by a doctor or not.
