True but Jesus didn't have to pin em to the ground.

You must feel insulted when someone gives a bit of advice you did not have before. Hey, believe what you want! Fight with devils with twenty men for hours. But all that I have been trying to say is we can stop the fighting and talk to the person about repentance and see the fighting be gone. I'd take any advice I can get to make the job easier.

One time while praying for a girl who was involved in witchcraft she was hissing like a snake and curling up her hands like claws, and the devil would not leave. We stopped her quite easily, and talked to her. Suddenly the Lord gave us a discerning of spirits and showed us a particular sin she had not repented of. She immediately asked for forgiveness, and the hissing was gone and the thing just hollered as it came out as easy as that. Yes, she was tired and worn out after. It tore her as it came out. But she remarked immediately how overwhelmingly clean she felt. We could have fought for hours, but we learned the need for repentance. Try it. It works!

Take care!

Nope. lololol.

The dude is right about sending them to the pit, though. One time a devil came out of someone and jumped into someone else, and the second person then needed deliverance. We can't just cast them out, and that's it.

The bible did not mention it in every case, but recall the time when Legion asked about not being sent to the deep. Jesus cast them somewhere, though -- into pigs -- and they wound up going into the deep, anyway!

Quote a topic for hallowe'en, huh?

Screaming goes totally. Fighting is gone. Screaming and taking fits is sure sign that repentance is not present.

I am not talking about a holler and scream when they leave. I had MOST do that.

Well, which is it? Screaming "goes totally" until one is confronted with the Word about the screaming and then "MOST do that".

The only screams were when they exit, I never said otherwise. I think you may have been dealing with metally unstable people who thought, along with you, that they were possessed. True possession is not as common as many think. I've been to churches where the theme was casting out demons. People come up, all claiming possession, and not one was truly possessed. It was truly pathetic. Preachers preaching against "caffiene demons" and "soap opera demons" and "hair cutting demons"(joking), and boy did the "demoniacs" come out of the woodwork. I've only seen the real deal three times in my life.

Nobody said anything about pinning anyone to the ground.

This is no competition, bro, about who saw the real thing or not. lol

One case saw the lights of the church turn off without a man at the switch.

Anyway, I was speaking about fighting with twenty men.

Three times?

Notice how Jesus stopped the theatrics:

Mark 1:23-25 And there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit; and he cried out, (24) Saying, Let us alone; what have we to do with thee, thou Jesus of Nazareth? art thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art, the Holy One of God. (25) And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Hold thy peace, and come out of him.

Amen! I've used that very line(with a "In the Name of Jesus Christ" at the end) and it works! Didn't have to make him repent of some hidden sin first though.
