Possession needs Exorcism

I was watching a show called, 'Weird or What" with host William Shatner and they were examining the question of 'Do people really get possessed by an evil entity or the devil?" There were experts who said no, these people just have split personalities. Another man a priest who does exorcisms said he has done many on people who were possessed because after the procedure the person felt and looked better more themselves again. I wonder if it is possible to be possessed? These possessed people are often able to speak in ancient languages and so on, How is that possible? I wonder if someone can speak in another language if they never have before, isn't it a learned thing? I have doubts about possession. Your thoughts about this, my lot.

I don't know about others but I know I don't want to believe in possessions even though I'm already seeing it with my own eyes.
Ancient language? Well, I believe that something within us already knows these languages. We just haven't been aware of it yet. The reason is because I believe that our minds are somewhat connected to other minds. Don't ask me anymore why I think like this. It's just that I know that we are connected to the other.
Anyways, I do believe that we are not the only creatures in this world. And I also believe that this material world that we're living in is not the only world that exists. Let's just say that I believe in other dimensions as I believe that there's the virtual reality world.
Have a nice day and Happy MyLotting!

Dimension is a plain of existence. An example is this dimension where we are sitting down in front of our computers; We can touch and feel the objects around us. This is the material world, a dimension where our material body and other matters known to man exist.
For now, aside for this dimension, I know also that there's the virtual reality and the spirit world. As for the other plains that was mentioned, that is beyond me.

I read somewhere there are 10 dimensions. I've also heard somewhere that there are as many as 16 dimensions. There is a lot that we can't fully understand.

I guess we will never know for sure unless it happens to us. Is you are suddenly speaking in ancient Greek and you don't even know another language it would stand to reason that some entity that knows the language is speaking it.

Speaking in tongues is a gift from God. So I wouldn't call tongues a work of the devil. Might be some schizophrenia at work here instead. I've heard a lot of utterances from extremely mentally I'll people. People with dissociative identity disorder have sometimes made utterances that sound like a foreign language. I worked in a state hospital many years ago and saw some creepy and strange things.

Speaking in tongues is God's divine because it makes the persons with more wisdom to teach and build a church but it is better to speak in tongues and translate only speak them since they are helping to build a church for God.

In my opinion I believe that those who think they have been posessed are just suffering from some sort of mental block due to stress over time, or mental diseases they have no control over without medicine.
I do believe that the power of Christ can heal people and that with the priests help that is exactly what was done. I've never seen an exorcism in real life but I believe that they most likely repeat things over a few times and maybe this "awakens" the person's full brain and kind of gets them out of the trance that they were put into.
I've had family who at first glance you'd think to be posessed but after taking medications you can tell that isn't the case.
So I go with the fact that Chris's strength and power healed and awakened the person, not that there was an evil or devil in them to begin with.

There are instances in the New Testament where Christ cast out demons. THese were among some of his healings.

Demonic possessions are attracted because people believe in being possessed by a spiritual entity or demon that takes their minds to mental problems, there is a law called the law of attraction everything you think you attract, everything you are refunded, everything you do comes back to you, the servant who speaks has been used by God to deal with evel spirits, spirits od destrution and done only to liberate this people, so the devil takes the soaul and the soul is the mind, so everything is in the mind and mind is the most powerfull vehicle to attract what you want

I think there could be an element of truth in posessions, I know that know one has actualy ever seen a demon in the flesh and shook hands with it :D but they could exist. All because we cant see demons, ghosts ect... it doesn't mean they don't exist. Take radio waves they exist all around us but we cannot see them, touch them or smell them but they are there, imagine that. Also imagine other things that we can't touch, see or smell that might exist, not nescesarily all bad either i must add :P

People are possessed bay their own bad or negative thoughts, but so are those who think of misfortunes so I say that your tonoughts are what they call the devil or infernal spirits, in the person creating the door to enter and hold that person I Am a person who has dealt with plenty of spirit of destruction in some people give these people freedom through prayer and that is the vehicle that exists to evict evil spirits, infernal spirits, spirits of darkness and Jesus Christ did.
