Two worlds, flesh and Spirit. One is experienced with our senses and one with our spirit.

We know about the the world of our senses already. Christians learn about their spirit though their Faith.

Faith is an enigma to flesh and our mind. The Bible teaches Christians how to live and function with Faith.

The following responses are based upon the Bible -

1. Demons are spiritual pathogens that affect everyone.

2. They may be bound in Christ's name.

3. Some believers have the Spiritual gift of discernment. We see this with Paul in the book of Acts when he recognizes that the girl in Phillipi had a spirit of divination.

4. The realm of spirit is populated by the Holy Spirit, Angels, Satan, fallen-angels and un-clean spirits.

5. It is un-clear if fallen-angels are the same or different than un-clean spirits. Ghosts may also inhabit the spirit realm.

6. Non-believers who seek connection to the spirit realm only connect with the followers of Satan.

7. Only born-again, Spirit-filled believers can possibly correctly discern spiritual activities.

The following is based upon reports of missionaries to Africa, South America, parts of Asia, etc. who engage in Spiritual warfare and have the gift of discerning un-clean spirits.

1. Demonic activity is more prevalent in areas that have had little or no prior Christian activity.

2. As Christian activity increases demonic activity decreases

3. The inverse holds as well.

4. Christians are every bit as likely to encounter un-clean spirits as non-believers. However, non-believers have no innate shielding so un-clean spirits may access them at will and do not need to employ more aggressive tactics. Believers, depending on their level of Faith, present a greater challenge for demons and therefore may both experience more and be more aware of demonic activity.
