HOW
TO RECOGNIZE EVIL SPIRITS
1. Discerning of spirits, word of knowledge
and word of wisdom: three gifts of the Holy Spirit.
2. Names claimed by
demons which describe their work: such as anger - to
make angry.
3. Counterfeiting
and imitating spirits of God (spirit of divination for
word of knowledge).
4. Synonyms for evil
spirits (Roget's Thesaurus).
5. Personality of
demon (soul - mind, will and emotions). Just like you
are except it does not have a physical body.
6. Cause demons to
manifest and identify their names and characteristics
(spiritual warfare).
7. Detection by
common symptoms or problems: emotional, mental,
speech, sex, addictions, physical and religious (false
religions, Christian cults, occult and spiritism,
false doctrine) (Pigs In The Parlor, "Seven Ways To
Determine The Need For Deliverance").
THE SPIRITS
OF GOD AND SATAN (EXCERPTS)
1. Beloved, believe
not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are
of God (I John 4:1).
2. We can bind and
loose spirits.
3. Therefore, we are
safe in assuming that for every ministering spirit of
the Lord, there will be one, and often many satanic
counter spirits.
4. Loosing spirits
from the Lord.
GENERAL
1. We bind the
spirits (demons) of Satan and loose the spirits
(angels) of God. We cast the demons out of people and
God directs the angels to minister to our needs.
2. Godly spirits
commonly mentioned are spirit, Spirit of God, Spirit
of the Lord, Holy Spirit (human spirit, angels and
Holy Spirit).
3. Ungodly spirits
commonly mentioned are evil spirits, demons and
devils. There is actually only one Devil, Satan;
demons are the correct terminology. There are millions
of fallen angels and billions of demons.
4. The following are
lists of godly and ungodly spirits found in the Bible.
You can identify many more after you have been in
deliverance awhile. Ungodly spirits generally are
found grouped in families. Where you find one demon,
you frequently find a family of demons with the same
characteristics.

DICTIONARY
OF CLASSICAL MYTHOLOGY - "A knowledge of
the classics and an acquaintance with the imaginary
characters, places, and incidents of ancient mythology
which have been such an inspiring influence to writers
of all ages adds greatly to ones enjoyment of
literature, art and conversation. The people outside
literary and educational pursuits have sufficient
opportunity or leisure to acquire or keep up a
knowledge of this popular branch of learning. It is
important, therefore, to present in dictionary form
the story of gods, goddesses, heroes, and heroines of
the old Grecian and Roman literature. It will lead to
a better understanding of the countless references
which are made from time to time in the literature of
the day to classic subjects. It is a great wonderland
of posy and romance, and forms a realm all its own,
the realm of antiquity's gods and demons and of
prehistoric heroes."
Notice the
underlining and what it says to you. It is talking
about gods, goddesses and demons. There is a demon
behind every god and goddess worshiped by man!
You are seeing
products with these names more and more today. Is this
innocent or deliberate? The definitions of these names
can be found in unabridged dictionaries. We recommend
that you purchase one for spiritual research.
IDOLS
WORSHIPPED BY COUNTRIES - The names of
idols are the same as names of demons. There is a
demon behind every idol that is worshipped by man.
Notice that there are male and female gods and
goddesses. Satan has something for everyone. Temple
prostitutes included male homosexuals, female lesbians
and female prostitutes.
TABER'S
CYCLOPEDIC MEDICAL DICTIONARY - The
following is Taber's definition of multiple sclerosis:
"A chronic, slowly progressive disease of the central
nervous system characterized by development of
disseminated demyelinated glial patches called
plaques. Symptoms and signs are numerous, but in later
stages those of Charcot's triad (nystagmus, scanning
speech, and intention tremor) are common. Occurs in
the form of many clinical syndromes, the most common
being the cerebral, brain stem-cerebellar, and spinal.
A history of remissions and exacerbations is
diagnostic. Etiology is unknown and there is no
specific therapy."
Notice the
underlined words. They tell you the symptoms of the
disease and where it is located in the body. With this
information, you can pray more effectively. The
symptoms can be called out as names of demons such as
plaques, Charcot's triad, nystagmus, scanning speech
and intention tremor. Demons will answer to their
medical names, common names, symptoms or names they
are given in the spiritual world.
We worked with a
woman in deliverance who had this disease by using the
above method. We would get manifestations as we called
out the demons by their medical names. She was
delivered and healed.
NEUROTIC AND
ABNORMAL PERSONALITIES (The Three P's -
Psychoneurosis, Psychoneurotic and Psychopsychosis) -
These lists of demons help you to understand those you
are ministering to who have these personalities. A
study of psychology and psychiatry can be very helpful
in deliverance. The method of treatment can also open
the door to demons.
PHOBIAS -
Phobias are fears. There are 210 phobias recognized by
psychiatrists.
SOURCE AND BRANCHES
OF FALSE RELIGIONS
Diagram:
Catholic -- Masonic
-- Occult
(Religious) --
(Business Success) -- (Drugs, Sex, Power)
Nimrod
(Tammuz &
Semiramus)
The first false
religion in the Bible can be traced back to Nimrod,
his wife, Semiramus, and her child, Tammuz. From this
source branched out other false religions. The
Catholic religion is for those who want to be
religious. The Masonic religion is for those who want
business success. The Occult religion is for those who
want power, sex and drugs. This is true of anyone who
follows a bloodless religion without the blood of
Jesus Christ and has not had a born-again experience
with Jesus Christ, our Lord, Master and Savior.
