I went to see it tonight. I don't like scary movies and especially ones involving spirits but my friend really wanted to see it.

I would say the movie was good. It definitely emphasized that the supernatural is real, but it was a little too much reality for me.

One of the interesting quotes at the end was "Once you have seen darkness, you will carry it for the rest of your life".

I have found this to be quite true in my own life.

I saw it. I liked how the movie was hyped as a horror, but it really wasn't. It was recounting of events while the priest was on trial. I expected another Exorcist, and what I got was Boston Legal on PMS/LSD. Though the movie was well done, all I enjoyed it for was the drama. I don't care if it was based on real events or not, it just didn't seem like a horror movie.

Maybe the horror was paying 8 bucks to see it. That must be it.

Why not? Just because you're a Christian doesn't mean you have to turn inward into a secluded world of only the prim and proper and pleasant. I guess if someone was unsure about their Christianity they wouldn't want to view such things. For me, it was just a trippy drama with neat special effects at times.

It was based on a true story.

I havn't seen it.

Excorcisms in the Catholic church are very much real.

Demon possession is very much real.

Jesus excorcised demons.

The only way to fight evil is with the word of God.

has anyone researched these spook flicks?

for instance,

in the poltergiest movies, some one from the cast died ( actually died ) during the filming, including the little girl who died in the process of the third movie, and they had to bring in a sub and then you never see her face, cause she dont loook like the original girl....

in the exorsist movies, i believe there were deaths during them also, and what about the omen and other movies such as these....

it is not good to be toying with the spirits that are not of God.... even playing around with the ouiji boards and taro cards and horror scopes and stuff, not a good thing to play with.....

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Daniel: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 3

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
