People are scratching their heads and asking questions like, "how did this
happen?" Well, it started in the spirit realm. Eph 6:12 For we wrestle not against
flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of
the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

A demon, it seems, got the green light to act. If you want to get to
the root of the problem, you will have to deal with the spiritual. These
demonic powers got authority to do their thing and the nation of the USA
gave it to them. I can understand the unsaved not knowing about the
spirit warfare, but the saved person not knowing, can not be excused.

Something like the Navy yard shooting starts with people agreeing with, then
submitting to demonic powers. Such as "supporting rebels that seek to overthrow
the government" in foreign countries. 1Sa 15:23 For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft,
and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. Because thou hast rejected the word of
the LORD, he hath also rejected thee from being king.

The government, the population, and even the Christians, agreed with helping
these rebels over throw a dictator. Well, that is also agreeing with the demonic
powers and when you lend support to the rebels, you submit to the demonic authority.
You open the door to them and give them authority. The Christian SHOULD KNOW
BETTER, but apparently, you don't know. Let's look at what is said about this shooter.

1. Had mental issue
2. Paranoia
3. Heard voices in his head
4. Anger management
5. A convert to Buddhism

The demonic powers had their man, all they needed was a green light. And we gave it to them.
When you Christians sided with the rebels, cause you didn't like the dictator of a country,
you agreed with the demonic powers and became in rebellion against God. That gave them
the authority over you and a green light to act. You see, that dictator, you don't like, was
put there BY GOD for a reason. When you go against the dictator, even if its just in your
own mind, you go against God.

Now, lets look at the verse again. Eph 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood,
but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world,
against spiritual wickedness in high places.
There is more to this, and it follows:
Eph 6:13-18 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. (14) Stand therefore, having
your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;
(15) And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; (16) Above
all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery
darts of the wicked. (17) And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of
the Spirit, which is the word of God:
(18) Praying always with all prayer and
supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and
supplication for all saints;

Notice what I put in bold, "the sword of the spirit, which is the word of God." To fight
against this demon powers, you need the sword of the spirit, which is the word of God."
That means HAVE IT AND KNOW IT! But most Christians in the USA, don't
have God's word. They got man's word. Their Bible is the product of man's idea and man's
creation. Its not God's word. And before you jump on a Bible arguement, wake up
to reality. You are losing the battle. YOU DON'T HAVE A SWORD, SON!

These principalities will continue to gain ground and the Christian will continue to lose
battles, if things continue as they are now. When a Christian chooses a Bible of their
own choice, from the word GO, they are in rebellion. God gave the KJV, submit to Him
and read His word. Get His sword. The more modern translations are used, the
further down the toilet the country goes. You can't stop it cause you got no weapon
to fight with. For Christians, its time to get your act together. You've had a theater
shooting, school shootings, etc... It starts with agreeing with demonic powers, because you
don't know God's word. You don't know His word, because you aren't reading it.

There has to come a point in time, when you see the fact that something isn't working.
To continue doing the same things and expecting different results is insanity.
If you want changes, you'll have to make changes. Your ways aren't working.
By not knowing God's word, you walk with the devil and give him authority. Then you
see another shooting and ask, "Why did that happen???" Well, now you know.

Well, its obvious that the Christians in the US are not fulfilling Paul's injunction in 1Tim 2v1-8, for if they were the moral and spiritual condition of US society would be quite different as to what it is today!

Maybe another this the US Christians need to pray for is a great tightening of your VERY lax gun laws!

Yahweh Shalom...

You forgot to mention the shooter was also addicted to Violent Video Games. These things are not " Entertainment" they.are a tool of the devil to seduce people into killing others...

I would reckon that the US policy of allowing someone with obvious mental health problems and a history of violence access to firearms probably has a great deal to do with it. It is unfair to equate mental health problems with demonic possession - that attitude should have gone out with the 16th century.

That is all carnal mindset. Did you miss the spiritual in what I posted? Laws have no effect on the
devil and never will.

Did you miss the spiritual also???? You people, with the carnal mindsets, go back and read
my post again! You can NOT control the devil with laws. Focus on Eph 6:12 For we wrestle
not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of
the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

The spiritual is going right over Christian's heads. The spiritual should be second nature
to the church, but the church acts like its a foreign language. The problems in the USA
ARE SPIRITUAL in nature, not physical
More laws and more regulation is a joke to the
devil. The 10 commandments never slow the devil down, but only revealed where he had been.

The types and quality of laws passed by any Government (and indeed the type of Government a country gets) will be directly related to the prayers of the Christians for their rulers in that society (Rom 13v1-14, 1Tim 2v1-8), so IT IS dealing with the "spiritual"! :p

The primary thing that changes the atmosphere in ANY society is...PRAYER!

Maybe you need to go and have another rethink dear boy!

Yahweh Shalom...

Then why are things going from bad to worse?? Prayer is given on the physical. You even stated
America's "lax gun laws" as if that will stop the devil. It starts in the spiritual and trying to stop
it in the physical is too late. If the church is failing in its duty, how does it expect to effect
laws written? If demonic forces have gotten the world, in the shape it is now, they can surely
have a hand in any law passed.

But I agree, prayer, but what I see is prayers for wrong things. If you will re-read my OP,
you'll see I pointed out "attitudes". The attitude for supporting rebels, which is supporting
witchcraft, by the church. Praying for the success of the rebels is the devil's green light.
