WHERE DO THOUGHTS OF SUICIDE OFTEN COME FROM? [1 of 2] Demons work with Satan, and the Bible’s John 8 tells us the devil is the father of all lies, as well as a murder. So, it's no surprise that someone who gets possessed by a demon would have that foul spirit try to kill its host. As Christians we have the Holy Spirit in us and He will not share space with demons, so they cannot possess us. But when I was involved with the occult before getting saved, I was not just demonically oppressed, but most likely multiply-possessed. This was my own doing. I had asked these entities to come inside me in hopes of receiving power, not understanding how dark it would get. So, they obliged, setting up shop and commencing to drive me insane, as their way of killing me. The goal of Satan and his demons is to trick each of us into staying away from Jesus—the only way to heaven—as long as needed for us to take our last breath and end up in hell. And by the way, the types of distractions they throw at us can include getting us involved in the occult. Anything you do is fine with demons, just as long as you don't go down that Jesus route; as long as you don't turn to Jesus on the cross, trusting in His work alone and asking Him to forgive your sins. Why do you think the ecumenical movement (the push for a one world religion) allows all beliefs except the biblical reality of confessing that Jesus is the only way?
