The power from the devil?

(1/3) > >>

Mortemir:
Hello everyone. I'm sure someone can answer my question here.

How can some people heal, take out demons, etc., when you are not in the spirit of God. To understand spirit you need to be in spirit (99.7% of the world do not have this). Some people have more power to heal and do spiritual things in the prayers. Why do they have this power when they are not in the spirit (for example, Christians) and who use this power when they pray? Is it the devil who do both (good and evil)?. The devil can be like a angel and pretend to be something he is not, so people are fooled. That is why most of the people do not believe.

Or is it God who use his power to heal? but then i don't understand the big picture from this subject. I'm confused and i hope this was
understandable.

Dave in Tenn:
Overlooked this, Mortimer.

Jesus sent out His disciples before they were converted to heal the sick and cast out evil spirits.  Did they do this?  If so, by what power did they do so?  What does scripture say?

Jesus Himself healed the sick and cast ohut evil spirits.  By what power did he do that?  What does Scripture say?

Nothing that happens for good or bad happens independent of the power of God.  Without Him nothing that is made has been made. 

lareli:
That’s the hardest truth Dave. That nothing that happens,good or evil, happens independent of the power of God. I say it’s the hardest truth because it means, for example, that a priest or parent can’t rape a child independent of the power of God.

That’s not to say that it is Gods will for evil to happen. But it is Gods intention that it be the way it is.

John from Kentucky:
God never forces anyone to sin.

We all sin automatically because we were created spiritually weak.

God created Satan who does evil continually; it is his very nature; and Satan is the god over this world, and controls government, and commerce, and all religions.

God only does good and is the source of all good.  The Book of Job and other Scriptures teaches us this.

lauriellen:
Shall there be evil in a city and the Lord has not done it?

He does it THRU Satan and other tools, but God is 100% responsible.

We may not like it, but that’s the reality.
