Interesting observations.
A few in our church who work in fields where mental health is concerned.
I hear folks who are "educated" call the spiritual ...mental. And I hear others in the church call mental ...spiritual.
It's amusing at times when I hear folks espouse their opinion on subjects they are actually foreign to as though they were filled with experience.
It caused me to ask the question, 'if someone were to manifest a demon spirit right now in the service how many by show of hands can I depend on to help pray/cast out the evil spirit?'
The first time I asked the question I had several hands go up that they were available to help cast out evil spirits but when I pretended to have one brought in & I needed those same prayer warriors to come help me I barely had a few to join me.
I apologized for the crude illustration but used it as a reminder of how we are not nearly as ready as we think we are to do real battle with the enemy.
True story here:
I had a wonderful family, spirit filled members of the church, leaders & teachers for many years. Husband was on the state laymen's board for years. She was W/M's leader for years as well. They had a young woman visiting in their home who manifested demonic spirits & they called in other church members but between 5 of them they didn't deliver the woman. It was sad to see such a pretty young lady in such torment. My youngest son & I went there & joined them in prayer & eventually 7 demon spirits were cast out. She was subsequently saved & began attending worship & lived a blessed life.
I guess I was shocked to see such weakness in our local church body. Can't imagine what a clinical professional must have to go through at times.
