Demons are organized according to rank. There are generals, who usually command lower ranking demons. It basically resembles an army.

Demons are issued commands from their superiors to do certain tasks. If they fail they get punished. These commands are called assignments, and they can be assigned to a person, a place, or even families.

The Bible says that the Devil is here to kill, steal, and destroy, and I believe these to be the primary objectives of demons.

Also, demons come in all sizes and shapes. there can be baby demons, demons of different races, etc.

They have to follow very rigid rules and are only allowed into people's lives if they have a right. These rights dictate who they can enter into and who they cannot.

It would appear that Lucifer/Satan is the commanding general of all other demons, and they all follow his commands.

Also, hell is referred to as "The Pit"

That's all I got for now. Lol
 
I would tell you about demons. But most here would just laugh and bring up all kinds of stuff. Okay demons. first of all where do they come from. They come from what I believe was here on Earth before the Earth became void and full of darkness. I do not believe that God created an Earth that was void and full of darkness. Do you?

When Lucifer rebelled against God these beings threw their lot in with Him, just as 1/3 of the angels did. God destroyed them with a flood. Remember that the Holy Spirit was hovering over the face of the waters and the God said let dry land come forth.

The judgment has not happened yet. Satan is still a work is He not? Demons can inhabit people. Fallen angels cannot. Look at the words of Jesus about demons. He sent them into the pigs right?

Thats what I think, I haven't seen anything else that would cause me to think otherwise. But what does it matter, we still need the cross of Christ.
 
It's good to know their structure and how they operate if you ever have to deal with them

It sounds like you are basing this on a source outside of the Bible.
I don't have enough time tonight to give a proper angelology lesson or refute each of the points given, but if you share the site that you got this from I will explain why it is so far off from how the Bible describes demons.
 
Demons are spirit, they have absolutely no physical body.

If you read Genesis, chapter 1, you will find that the world was darkness, and the Hebrew word for that darkness is not absence of light but Choshek. That Hebrew word carries in it the sense of blindness, of misery, of falsehood and ignorance. It means something that leads to death and destruction. I am not going by how I think it should have been, but what scripture says it was. Into this God created "owr", and this Hebrew word is closely associated with life and joy and good. Again, that is scripture.

The only way that demons can affect us is by our acceptance of sin. Those who follow Christ and repent and ask forgiveness of sin, those who try to live as Christ wants, have nothing to fear from demons.

Demons are more active in our world now, it is the direct result of the church deciding not to label sin as the definition of it as scripture teaches. The Church has always led the world, even the fleshly world, in defining sin. Now, with the new idea of promoting only that God is Love, that God forgives, without also teaching that God judges and expects obedience, it is ushering acceptance of sin. Demons take advantage.
 
The source I got this from was the demons themselves.

They can only enter through sin
 
Demons are the 1/3 of the host that fell with Satan. They are divided into a heirarchy, because from a heirarchy they came. Christ said that we do not fight men, but "Powers and Dominions." These are positions in the Heavenly Host. Satan was the greatest of all of God's creations. He was beyond the power of St. Michael, and was the head of the defenders of the Throne. He was Lucifer, "the bringer of light" and HaSatan, "The Adversary." However, Satan denied God, and wished to make himself the King. He has thrown away all that he once was, as have the angels who have followed him into perdition.

Satan rules his principality with an iron fist. Be sure that any time you encounter a demon, you are encountering an agent of Satan. Satan brooks no rebellion, no others above him. He is a liar and a deceiver, caring nothing for anything, not even truly himself, as long as it aids in his war against God. These fallen angels, these creatures of darkness have no love, no light, no good, and no mercy. They fear God, because God is still their King, no matter what they say. (Think how Prince John feared King Richard, even though he hated the King.)

Demons despise man, and they use us as a way to hurt God, because they know that God loves us. They delight in our sins, and delight in our punishments. They love to watch us rise, only to fall under the condemnation of our own deeds. As God wishes none to perish, Satan wishes all to perish. Demons do not work for our Lord, they are in rebellion, and they exercise any freedom that is given them. They seek to induce murder, rape, war, etc. upon this world, and they hold this world as their territory.

Satan has claimed Earth as his, and sadly, he has a right to. When Adam and Eve, and all of their descendants, allowed sin into their life, they acknowledged Satan as master. God gave man dominion over the Earth, and we by sinning have given Satan dominion over man.

But brothers and sisters, there is good news. The True King has infiltrated this enemy territory, and has called for an uprising against this usurper. The King has come to take His people back. The King will break our chains of slavery to this dark prince. The King has made sure that the usurper will never rise again to blaspheme the Lord God Almighty. The King has come to remove the sins of the world. Our Innocent King died upon a cross, a death that Satan thought would give him victory. BUT instead, Our King rose, destroying death, and breaking Satan's hold over this world. We are now in the midst of the battle, but the war has been won. Brothers and Sisters, Our King, Jesus the Christ, has come to reclaim His Throne, and to place us back into right relation with God. Praise the name of Jesus. (And if I may be so dramatic) Long Live the King!

Somebody has been watching too much of the TV show "Supernatural".
 
Proverbs 6:16There are six things the Lord hates, seven that are detestable to him:

Joel 2:13Rend your heart and not your garments. Return to the Lord your God, for he is gracious and compassionate, slow to anger and abounding in love, and he relents from sending calamity.

1 Chronicles 21:15And God sent an angel to destroy Jerusalem. But as the angel was doing so, the Lord saw it and relented concerning the disaster and said to the angel who was destroying the people, “Enough! Withdraw your hand.” The angel of the Lord was then standing at the threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite.

How much of this is Biblical, and how much of it is just personal opinion?

Peaceful Sabbath,

Avoid Unclean Practices
Just as a spiderweb holds fast a fly, millions of people are held fast by superstition and falsehood. They fear the dead. They fear the demons. They worry about curses, omens, charms, and fetishes. They are bound by beliefs and traditions based on the lies of Satan the Devil. God’s servants are ensnared by none of these things.
Almighty God is far more powerful than Satan. If you serve God, he will protect you from the demons. (James 4:7) Spells will not work on you. If the demons harass you, you can call on God and he will protect you. (Proverbs 18:10) But in order for you to have God’s protection, you must completely break free from everything associated with spiritism and demon worship. Worshipers of God in ancient Ephesus did that. They collected all their books on magic and burned them. (Acts 19:19, 20) God’s servants today must do the same. Rid yourself of charms, amulets, “protective” strings, fetishes, magic books, and anything else connected with spiritistic practices.

No! Where is it written so ? Lucifer was in no way the greatest in all God's Creation. The greatest in God's Creation was Adam, son of God, our first ancestor ! And Lucifer was not the greatest among angels either ! He was a covering cherub at the Altar of God, and remember, there's always two covering cherubs at the Altar of God !
It's very possible the other covering cherub was St Mikaël. So no, Lucifer was not the greatest among angels, it's a big lie from Satan ! Lucifer was among the greatest angels, that's all ! Now he's a fallen angel, because he despised the Lord's blessings and Kingdom, and fell into an absolute foolishness, and only God can destroy him to save His Creation !

It has to stop, it can't continue that way.
Soon or later, the fallen world and its fallen prince will perish !

And the new earth and its glorious King of Kings will replace it forever !

Actually he is close as far as organization goes.
EPH 6.12 says-
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.

I encourage everyone to do word studies on every word in this verse, it will open some eyes as to how the powers of darkness ae organized.

Now remember, Satan always seeks to counterfeit what is Gods, so this study will also give you insight into how the Kingdom of Heaven is also organized[See also Col 1.16]
 
Here we go again!!!! Another demon and Christians can be possessed thread! GO US!

This thread and others like it, is brought to you by those that follow the doctrine found in the books of Derek Prince and his most famous plagiarizers, Frank and Ida Mae Hammond!!!

All 3 of whom were later discovered through self admission, death bed confessions and Bible based and Bible centered deliverance ministers to be absolute deliverance FRAUDS, because the Bible is clear that a blood bought, Spirit filled Christian cannot be walking in the Spirit and be demon possessed at the same time.

To even suggest this means that those that espouse it, do not even take Jesus's redemptive work of the cross as real or powerful enough to keep a son or daughter from being possessed.

Can a son or daughter of God be oppressed YES...
 
so let me get this straight. Demons told you that this was "true" and you believe them?

there can be baby demons
Click to expand...

sorry demons don't have babies, they don't reproduce. they have no bodies. they are evil spirits who are jealous because they are cut off from the material earth. that is part of why they possess people and try to steal their lives and enslave their minds and souls.

Jesus does not encourage people to learn the ranks and file of the demon legions. He teaches us to stand against Satan and his minions and their lies by Standing WITH God. He taught us to meditate upon GOOD things. We are expect to walk with the Holy Spirit and display the fruits therein: Love, Joy, Peace, Patience, Gentleness and Self control.

I'm going to search for a thread that is about Jesus now.
 
Luke 11

24 When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest; and finding none, he saith, I will return unto my house whence I came out.
25 And when he cometh, he findeth it swept and garnished.
26 Then goeth he, and taketh to him seven other spirits more wicked than himself; and they enter in, and dwell there: and the last state of that man is worse than the first.
 
I have spoken to demons.

If you talk to any exorcist or deliverance minister they will tell you the same thing
