I was in a Communist country, it was suggested (1994 ) that we told the youth group; in the building 12ft. from the church building, what was happening in the UK church. We told them all about the movement of the Holy Spirit that time. We were told after the event that those people had a totally different view of a spirits, who they saw as mischivious &/or damaging humans. But we prayed repenting for forgiveness & some years later we heard that there had be a moving of the Holy Spirit amongst them; that they had come alive. A battle won in us & in Christ.

How? By teaching about Him to people who had no knowledge of the Lord? I don't follow. Could you explain more about how you felt that you had grieved Him?

God is the God of the living while other spirits might be of a lesser status normally associated with darkness. Even those that seem to compliment religion might be only religious spirits who've found context in a religious tradition of some sort, but fall short of the real thing as it needs that witness to be sound and to be vital. Else it would be less than eternal life that people would be experiencing. This is why it requires that certain revelation to set people genuinely free.

This was a church where many including the leader was Holy Spirit filled & therefore open. but then we spoke into their traditions & culture.
