It is obvious that a kind of mystical, new age, christian faith has come into the
church. I have read lots about the Kundalini spirit.
Some mix spiritualism with christianity, so christians must be delivered from demons
of greed, lust, over indulgence etc. or whatever pet sin they might have.
Some invented the Jezebel spirit and desired to weed out this out of the church.
Other talk about legalism, or some more emotional dispositions.
Now I hold once the Holy Spirit is in you, there is nothing else evil spirit within
you.
I read Todd Bentleys testimony and he had demons cast out of him after coming
to faith.
Is this a common charismatic view?
The toronto blessing got so bad people said they could not tell between demon
possession and the Lord moving.
Jesus implied something different

Luke 8:38-39
Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own.
1 Cor 6:19
You simply cannot be a part of the Kingdom and be possessed. It would be
like saying the Holy Spirit is less than demons, which is a total contradiction
to the faith and the cross.
But then it is easier to explain away bad behaviour to demons than accept
it is something to really do with who we are.
