Can a demon get inside the church

Jesus Christ is not the church. we are the church.

Amen, the church is the body of Christ.

Ephesians 1:22-23
22 "And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church,
23 Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all." KJV
 
We are the church , but we are in HIm, HIS body
He is HEAD of the church!

The church is perfect , without spot. the church is spirit beings , BORN OF GOD!:love:
 
well considering that the real church is Jesus Christ than NO. But if you are talking about a building that man has made then YES. All kinds of demons can enter a building by themselves or through people.
I mean a church building lol hopefully you people know what I mean...
 
i fully agree with you. the Lord did us give us a spirit of fear but peace, love and a sound mind. we have the authority to tread upon the enemy be not afraid for where two or more are gathered Jesus has promised His presence. they must have entered through some loop hole but Greater is He that is in us than he that is in the world.

Can a demon get inside the church ?

Yes, Yes, Yes.
2Corinthians 11:14-15
14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.
15 Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be
transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.

We're not talking about Poltergeist disturbances where ghost busters are needed, but acknowledging the facts from fairy tales.

I've witness demon possess people so for me to say
" No " they cant enter church would seem silly.
It's the sad truth but they can. Our job is not to obsess over it
or walk around in constant fear.
You can lock the doors, seal the windows at your church trust me they will get in.

Setting up security is vitally important, but knowing who your adversary/enemy is also.

Peter 5:8 “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary
the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.”

Our Security is found in our Heavenly Father

Psalm 91:2-4
2I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress:
my God; in him will I trust.
3Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler,
and from the noisome pestilence.
4He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings
shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.

Can a demon get inside the church ?

Of course they can, if you're looking for an ugly monstrous figure
you might be disappointed. " for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light "

As for what that girl saw only God can be her judge.



What is the truth ?

Ephesians 6:12
12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities,
against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age,[a]
against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.

What is Fairy tale ?

Zombies, Ghost are real.
devil is not busy in the church.

Defense Truth.

Ephesians 6 14-18
Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may
be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
6:14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth,
and having on the breastplate of righteousness;
6:15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;
6:16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able
to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.
6:17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit,
which is the word of God:
6:18 Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit,
and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;

Fairy tale Defense
Demons are afraid of crosses
All you need is Holy Water


See if we acknowledge the truth ( God's truth in His Word) and who the
enemy is we can exercise our defense with success.

Light overcomes darkness.
The Glory and Power of our Heavenly Father will always win.
They may enter, but God is always in control when we put on the whole armour of God .

Hi..

I quoted your post here, I found it under Christians & Demon Possession. I hope you don't mind.

It is a great reply and I agree fully.

Love Ann

Blessings!
 
That is correct Jesus Christ is the head of the church and we are the body.

Eph 5:23 For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body.
 
Can a demon get inside the church why'll they have church service?

I was wondering, because today I was told by this girl that she when to church and she saw a black shadow like in a service but by the side her eye but I don't think it is a demon because I thought she said that it wasn’t really scaring her. And there was one time that she said that she seen a book open by itself but she said she don’t think it is a bible? Do you think someone in the church who not save can sent some demon in the church to cost some sort of a division?
Yes they sure can my brother. The bible says they got into the synagoges as well. Just because she wasn't scared doesn't mean that it wasn't a demon. I've seen many demons and rarely ever get scared because I know they can't hurt me! Amen to that!
 
I've heard of various stories of demon possessed people being inside church [buildings]. GOD demonstrated His power over these demons in front of all the witnesses. This builds up their faith undeniably, and glorifies GOD Himself as well. So, ironically demons are "welcomed" to come to church, to be ridiculued and defeated by GOD once again.

There is great power in Jesus' name. Do not forget.

Mark 16:16-18

16He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.

17And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;

18They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.
 
What the Bible says about satan.

Ezekiel 28:17
"Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness: I will cast thee to the ground, I will lay thee before kings, that they may behold thee." KJV


The devil is beautiful, not ugly. he is evil, not good. he is deceiving and a liar.

John 8:44
"Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it." KJV
 
Thanks sister Ann, God bless you.

We certainly need to keep our armour on no matter where we are.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading This Present Darkness some years ago. The book, fictional, goes into spiritual warfare which is very much a reality in today's world as we approach the glorious End of Days.

These posts reminded me of a time as a young boy, I was running down a hill at a Christian family camp. I swore that I saw a leg come from nowhere and trip me up. I skidded down the hill a fair way and scraped the skin off of both knees near to the kneecaps. Later that same night, as I was trying to fall asleep in our cabin with my parents and aunt & uncle praying/fellowshipping in the front room, I saw a shadow-like form staring at me from the corner of the room near the ceiling. This form looked demonic to me even as a child. I ran in a terrified state to the front room and the adults prayed over me and then prayed in the room. I never saw that again, but I believe it was demonic. How blessed I was and still am to have spirit-filled prayer warriors in my immediate family!
 
@ rag4acrown1 -- that was not in the Church. Now days we have the Church of Satan. In That scenario -- yes, But in The Church established in the New Testament, no or at least highly unlikely.
