Can Christians be demon possessed

I don't believe so but they can be tormented by demons but the Lord says in Isaiah 54: 17....... No weapon forged against you shall prevail.

Demons, can and will tempt us but each time by the power of the Blood of Jesus we can resist them and they will flee from us. Demons have to flee when we quote the scripture.

I just need to add one thing...Don't forget that demons DO quote scripture...satan did when he tempted Jesus. Scripture in its self is not a deterrent to demons. The Blood of Jesus IS a deterrent.

I believe that there are demons and that they posess people, and sometimes they even enter into Christians.

Last summer, there was a revival on the reservation and it was a good event. They brought a woman to the front (my cousin, in fact, I've known her all my life) and started praying on her because she was acting strange...into alcohol, threatening suicide and the such. With the power of prayer and calling upon Jesus, they were able to remove this from her.

Here's the strange part...I never believed in this type of thing before. But the park where the revival was, all of the street lights blew out at the time that this "thing" was removed from my cousin. I mean - Pow! Showers of sparks and all. And there's a creek nearby. They said that it stopped running for three minutes (it's been running for as long as anybody can remember).

My cousin broke down afterwards and testified. She said that after she lost her only son in a terrible accident, she slipped. She sought answers in other things. She believed God had failed her. She opened herself to dark things.

Today she's a completely different person, all of four months later. She's a walking miracle of Christ.

Yes you're right about scripture and satan quoting them but Christ also counter acted by saying ' "IT IS WRITTEN '" Satan also distorts the scripture and that is why we have to search the word for the truth ourselves and not just listen to everything that tickles our ears.

Along with this thought is Faith as well .When the disciples could not cast out the demon in the little boy. He told them in Matthew 17:20: because you have little faith. I tell you the truth, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say the the mountain, '' Move from there and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you."
