 I belive in Cursses because I heal people who are Cursed, Santedia in one of the most common way of Cursing any one, However Voodoo, Witchcraft, Diabolic Possesion, and many other Demonised act;s, inflict deadly harm in the Human Mind, Body, Spirit, and Brain,Lusifer has more then one and a million Diabolic way;s to harm the Human body, There are a lbig percentage of people out there that don;t belive in Witchcraft Cursses, and they are full of Cursses even if they don;t belive,Like any other sickness there are symtoms that the body suffer when the person is Witchcraft, Never underestamate the one next to you, or the one who show;s a lot of love for you, I was Witchcraft since I was in the Wound of my mother, I was cursed more then a thousand time;s with death cursses and deah job;s, for what i know i did not read in a book, I wen;t through it my self,any one who consult;s with me i diagnoised because I went through it my self, That;s how i know what the Cursses person is going through, And belive me it;s very sickening, Healer99@scinternet.net

 Regarding the fellow who keeps getting flat tires:

Is he hitting railroad tracks, curbs and/or potholes at 60+ mph? No tire can take that kind of abuse.

Check the wheels [the big round metal thing that the tire goes around] . Is it dented or otherwise deformed so that it cannot hold air? Pull the tires off the wheels and check the mating surface of the wheel and tire for poor sealing.

Check the valve cores and stems; were they replace with the last set of tires.

Finally; is he having a feud with a neighbor or ex-girlfriend -- they love to go after tires.

There has to be something going on -- properly installed tires on good wheels will go a long way.

My heart went out to folks on today's show and I found myself thankful to my parents that they didn't know enough of the Bible while I was growing up to harm me. At the age of 5 I started having epileptic seizures. My parents encouraged me to live my life to the fullest. They did not  give into their fears, which I believe is the biggest curse parents pass onto their children. My father used to tell me that I may have epilepsy but it didn't have me. My family, my classmates and my seizures are the reason am the confident person I am today. God has blessed me with them all. :) 

  

During my senior year my mother died, I met a man who was searching for God, and he and I went off to college where we plugged into a new church and community. It was here that well meaning Christians would lay hands on me and attempt  to cast demons out when I would have a seizure. After the first attempt, I actually found myself thankful for their actions because after my next seizure I knew I couldn't have demons because they should be out if I did. God had given me his peace and strength. I had His Spirit dwelling in me therefore demons could not be dwelling in me. God's grace has been perfect in my weakness of seizures for 35 years. 

         Then through a course of events only God could orchestrate,  a medical test showed scar tissue on my brain causing my seizures. I had my so-called demons removed. I could have been crippled spiritually and emotionally had a believed well-meaning people, I am so thankful to God and my family that I am not! I hope the same for the folks on today's show and I hope my story encourages you. 

  

One of the many things I've learned growing up with seizures is that opinions are a cheap commodity, everybody has one. :) Trust God Blessings, Becky SZR FRE 

This message is in response to Charlie's lifetime struggles with her mother and also to all those people on Dr. Phil's show who are struggling with the devil and his evil angels.  Quite coincidentally my childhood parallels Charlie's in inexplicable ways in terms of many of the details and feelings.  When I read the post I thought that someone was actually writing my story using a pseudonym.    Last year I found the courage for the first time in my life to sit down and write my mother a letter addressing all the hurts and pain she had caused me.  The letter took me over two weeks to write and in the process of writing it I felt I was having a nervous breakdown.  I wept profusely as I described each painful situation and at times the pain I was reliving was so intense and horrific that I had to stop writing for a period.  After I wrote the letter it sat on my coffee table in a sealed envelope for four weeks.  I just did not have the courage to mail it.   I prefaced my letter to my mother by telling her that I was writing to let her know that I forgive her for not being the mother I wanted her to be and that in turn I wanted her to forgive me for not being the daughter she wanted me to be.  The letter had been precipitated by a major blowout we had weeks earlier which left us not speaking to each other and which had been so emotionally destructive to me that I felt I would never again see or have anything to do with her.  In the process of forgiveness it was necessary for me to let my mother know ALL of my feelings about the things she had done to me and permitted to happen to me-  not from the place of recrimination or condemnation of her -  but to set the record straight in her lifetime so that in the event I had imagined these things to be so she could refute them or correct my misconceptions.  I realized that I had to take this step even though it was excruciatingly painful.  If I was never going to associate with her again then I needed to let her know what was in my heart and at the same time to forgive her.  I never expected her to reply to the letter.  Then many weeks later a call came close to midnight.  It was my mother on the other end.  As I heard her voice I felt a wall of defensiveness come up inside me.  I started to anticipate the usual pattern of domineering, controlling, manipulative & bullying behaviour I was used to but to my surprise she greeted me in a soft tender voice and told me that she had received my letter.  I remained silent as she spoke and then she told me that she had read the letter several times and agreed with everything I wrote.  Her question then to me was: "What can I do now?  What can I do now, it's so late, so late."   I wanted to hear my mother say to me: I'm sorry.   I had to resist with everything in me the urge to say to her that this is what she should say to me.  Instead I found the strength to say to her: Thank you for reading the letter and for understanding my pain.  I forgive you and I love you and I want us to begin again.   I had prayed to God for weeks before I wrote the letter because my mother is a Christian and so am I.  Yet we found ourselves caught in a bitter web of negativity that had existed from the day I was born.  One day the Holy Spirit directed me to write to her and to be totally honest with her about everything that had transpired in my life.  This was part of a larger work God has been doing in my life to help me understand WHO I am  and WHY my life has had so many ups and downs that I previously identified as "curses".  I too thought that I was living with a generational curse but I understand now that there are family traumas that get translated over generations as "curses".  There is a formula we need to keep in mind: trauma feeds trauma - my parents were traumatized in their lifetimes so severely that in turn they traumatized their chlldren not because they were bad parents but because they were acting from a place of trauma.  Their lives were wrecked due to no fault of theirs from early childhood - both of them suffered the loss of their own parents at early ages and had to be raised by relatives who abused them and took away their dignity.   I also understand that there is an enemy of our souls - Satan and that he uses his intelligence to kill, hurt and destroy families.  I know now that most of the problems in my life have occurred because I am a co-dependent.  Today, I am a recovering co-dependent and the Holy Spirit has helped me to understand how my co-dependency developed and the dangerous roads it has caused me to travel.  Yes, there is great evil in the world.  There are curses which come on us because of a life of sin.  In Deuteronomy, Chapter 28 God tells us all the blessings that will come on us if we serve Him (verses 1 to 14) and live in obedience to His laws.  Then He describes all the curses that will come on us if we rebel against Him and follow our own understanding rather than lean on His understanding (verses 15 to 68).  The curses are so numerous they quadruple the blessings.  There are also demons - the fallen angels who along with Satan control this planet as we are told in Revelation, Chapter 12, verses 7 to 12.  We are told that Satan and the fallen angels have come down to earth with great wrath and that they will cause interminable woe to the inhabitants.  The good news however is that there is for the born again Christian the protection of the Son of God, Jesus Christ The Messiah because we can overcome attacks from Satan and his demons by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of our testimony (Revelation Chaptter 28, verse 11).  All human beings are subject to the terror and wrath of the demonic realm and this is clearly outlined in many parts of the Holy Bible.  For example, the angel told Daniel that from the time he prayed to God for help his prayer was heard but that he was delayed in coming into the earthly realm to help Daniel for 21 days because Satan was fighting him.  This angel had to be assisted in the fight against Satan by the angel Michael and told Daniel that he would again have to fight Satan and his demons on his way back to the heavenly realm. (See: Daniel Chapter 10, verses 12 to 21).  In the Book of Jude we see that even the Archangel Michael had to rebuke Satan in the name of Jesus (Jude, Chapter 1 verse 9).  In Ephesians Chapter 6, verse 12, Paul tells us that "we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places".  Paul then gives us the formula for fighting against Satan and his demons in verses 10 to 18 of this chapter.  He tells us in verses 10 and 11 that we must be "strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might" and that we must "put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil".  It is sad for those who do not believe that Satan is real or that the fallen angels are real.  The Bible tells us in Isaiah, Chapter 14, verses 12 to 21 that  Lucifer, Satan's original name has "fallen from heaven" and that he "weakens the nations" of earth.  In Ezekiel, Chapter 28, verses 13 to 19 God's creation of Lucifer aka Satan is described as well as Satan's rebellion against God.  These verses describe Satan as "a terror"  and God tells us that he has destroyed the earth by the "multitude of thine iniquities, by the iniquity of thy traffic".  Jesus bore witness in the gospels that He saw Satan fall as lightning from heaven and Jesus himself had to contend with Satan's temptations.  Always Jesus used the word of God to overcome Satan - See Matthew Chapter 4, verses 1 to 11.  We must use God's word, the name of Jesus and the Blood of Jesus to fight Satan and his demons.  We must cover ourselves and our loved ones with the Blood of Jesus.  We must also know God's word and the protection it offers us from generational curses.  In Jeremiah Chapter 31, verses 29 to 34 God promises that if we renounce sin and live righteous lives that He will not pass on the sins of our parents to us - but that each individual will account for his or her sins and that he will pardon all our transgressions and remember our sins no more.  This is the confidence we have in getting back on the right track with God after we have suffered the ravages of sin.  Paul said that he did many things out of ignorance of God's laws.  We do not need to live with gullt, self-condemnation, despair and a sense of wasted lives.  We simply have to turn to God and ask Him to forgive us for our "ignorance" of His laws just as the great apostle Paul did, to renounce Satan and sin and to pledge our allegiance to God and He will make our lives brand new.  This is part of my testimony and I sincerely hope it helps someone.  God has taken me out of the miry clay, redeemed me from sin and given me the great opportunity to be a witness for Him by being a disciple of His Son, Jesus Christ.  I have had a long journey - through many religions including mysticism - but praise be to His name I am now a devout follower of my Lord and Master Jesus Christ.  It is not easy and daily I must contend with the forces of evil but I resist and gain strength by prayer, reading my bible and creating links with the people of God through attending Church and utilizing every opportunity I can to glorify God. 

  

May the peace, blessings and love of God be with each and every one of you and may you all come to know that Jesus is Lord and ask for his divine protection and the covering of  His blood.  Nadira Jordan   

There are many ways of seeing the Godhead. Not all of them will meet everyone's definition of the right way to see God.  A little basic give & take is needed here. To quote Niven & Pournelle "Grey is a very good color."

Curses and such? Most people will go an entire lifetime and never see the real thing. The real thing is rare. A real exorcist will work a lifetime and do two, maybe three, excorcisms. They real need is rare.  Almost all of the exorcisms you see in fundementalist churches are acting and blaming and wishfull thinking.

Oh I know all about the Bible! A lot of what the authors speak of is phrased in the local idiom of the times. Mental illnesses were described as "evil spirits." Today we know that is not the true way to see mental illness. Diseases such as leprosy were seen as indwelling spirits: We now know that the spirit in leprosy is a little bug which can be killed by a simple drug cocktail.

The skeptics take things too far: So do the true believers. (A true-believer believes X regardless of the facts. A skeptic denies X regardless of the facts.)

People tend to blame spirits for random chance. People want to blame someone or something for the bad in life. That is natural. The reality is, in the long run, better. Bad things happen to good people. If we work as hard as we can we can improve our chances of good things happening.

I could blame the tremor which makes my life hard on evil spirits. That would in no way change the fact that I have a tremor. Blaming spirits would not stop me from ruining so many shirts by dumping coffee/tea on them. The simple fact is I have a tremor and that is the way it is. I take a drug which works for me now. Eventually, if I live long enough it will not work. Pity. That's a pity, but it is the way things are.

Your comments are very true but most pastors do not believe in demonic forces and scoff at these issues.  It would be helpful if you could provide an email so you can be contacted. 

  

Blessings.

I was surprised to see how reserved Dr. Phil was on the existence/non-existence of demonic entities.  I was fairly certain he'd view demons as the result of mental/emotional illness and/or traumatic experiences "haunting" people.   

  

In part, I was right...but this whole subject is messy.  If he's too far into the rational/scientific view, then nothing exists outside the five senses - anything else just isn't there.  If he's too far into the spiritual/religious view, then everything outside the five senses is just as real...no scientific objectivity.  So - I guess he's just like a lot of us - sitting on the fence, wondering where the truth really lies. 

  

Personally, I'd like to see Dr. Lawless, who wrote a book on it called "Transpersonal Medicine", as a guest on his show!  Dr. Phil referenced him more than once during the show - and I'd like to hear what he has to say about the subject.  He seems like a very rational, balanced spokesperson for this subject.  

  

I'm going to try to get a copy of this book in the meantime, since I have a personal interest in the subject - from an amateur observer's point of view.

I guess I should have also taken a picture of my nightgown...two very small buttons...I've physically tried to make the mark by pushing, scratching, etc.  If you look again, you will actually see the scratches - almost like branding marks and it also 'scabbed'.   It faded after a few days, and during the summer when getting some sun, it was a faded mark when all my other skin was getting darker, this did not...still think it's a button????
