Re: Bob Larson, "The Real Exorcist"
We wrestle not against flesh and blood...
I have cast out my share of demons, and all that laying the Bible on them and other fol-de-rol is unnecessary.
I don't fight with devils, and often won't even touch the person, especially if it is a woman with a sensual spirit. They like that too much.
You speak to the devil and command him to come out, and there is no need for all that wrestling and carrying on.
I won't let them do that.
Devils love attention.
I am not going to carry on some conversation with devils either, or give them opportunity to speak this and that.
I tell them to be still and come out.
Why give a platform for the enemy to speak? Just to wow the crowd?
Nonsense.
Why take up valuable time that could be spent worshipping Jesus or preaching to put on a sideshow starring some demon?
Deal with it and move on. Don't make the devil the main event.

Well, you don't know for sure that he's not really casting out demons.
His doctrinal financial issues are between him and God to deal with , but in the meantime, if people are being delivered from demons, I'm ok with that.
Lord knows, deliverance from demons is a topic that's not discussed enough or taught about enough in Apostolic circles.

This is how I have always felt about it. Any pastor I have had has been the same way.

Re: Bob Larson, "The Real Exorcist"
Why would anyone be surprised if Larson says the UPC are Heretics? All strong Trinitarians do the same thing. I was called a Heretic by a number of them just recently.

Anyhow, he listed a whole bunch of churches that he said fit this catagory, including Mormons, Jehovah Witnesses and THE UNITED PENTECOSTAL CHURCH.
I had listened to him occasionally up to that point. But once I read that book, I've never listened to him since then.

I don't think Margie is making up what she read. She says she read that this guy called the UPC a bunch of heretics then she read that.
I don't give credibility to anyone who makes a show out of casting out demons. To me it sounds more like he is in league with them than against them.

Amen and amen. I tried saying this same thing earlier but offended some pride.

Im postive he is not. I base that on all the years I used to hear him on the radio. HE is the radio version of Benny Hinn and the other types.
I also base that on what I have seen in the area of casting out demons. Again folks, look this up on the net. Let me try this again
Here is another link you all should read.

I've watched Bob do his exercisms and something just never seems right to me. I heard him do it on the radio too and again it did not seem right

This guy witnessed one of these events

Re: Bob Larson, "The Real Exorcist"
Prax, who could possibly be the people whom Jesus turns away who actually cast out devils but were workers of iniquity? Do you believe one has to be valid in all areas to truly cast a devil out?

Re: Bob Larson, "The Real Exorcist"
Some of these look like bad actors, others look like disturbed people perhaps unwittingly "mimicking" what they think a demon possessed person should act like.
Sorry. I don't trust Bob Larson the man. He has always seemed like someone to abuse someone elses situation for financial gain.
And I have seen these shows and honestly I just don't think he is dealing with real demons...or should I say demonic spirits. He is dealing with the mentally unstable, the weak minded that are easy to manipulate due to their mental disposition and what they are expecting and the pre-conceived ideas they come with...plus Bob "primes" them like any good snake oil salesman would
