Can only true Christians cast out demons?

[Christ4Ever]

I prefer this poll question then I would know how to vote ... yes.


I always thought the problem here is the "we" (personal pronoun) rather than glorifying God for what He does through us.

Agree! Like the person is trying to include themselves in with those who have been faithful in doing the will of the Father, not for personal gain, but to glorify God.

With the Love of Christ Jesus.

when Jesus said to trample on them, he mean it.

i'm not sharing this to boast in myself but rather state what happened as i have not found a single person on the internet who has ever mentioned such a thing:

A few months ago in a waking dream while sleeping in on a saturday at 10:45 am, I saw a woman. presuming the woman was a girl in real life who was attracted to me, (she is in the military in Okinawa) i didn't immediately say anything, but rather wondered what is the meaning of this. but instead a name came to mind, the name of my wife's sister, who has been no contact with us, and no contact with her parents since the day she found out we're engaged.

A moment later I saw a demon touching her, in the form and likeness of myself. and I said to the woman. that is a demon touching you! not me! and I prayed for the woman as if it was not actually my wife's sister, but rather the girl in the military (not that that really changed anything, but if i had known it indeed was my wife's sister, i would have told her to pray to Jesus herself, rather than commanding the demon not to touch her again!)

and she replies back plain as day "joe please leave me alone"

my wife thinks it actually was her sister. and yes, she would be sleeping in on a saturday morning, as she is a school teacher for elementary students.

Yes, only Christians can cast out devils and I must add believing Christians because Jesus said these signs shall follow believers in His Name shall cast out devils. There are some Chrisitians who are not aware of demons as an reality in the day to day life we live. Faith in God's Word is important of doing anything that Bible says belongs to us.

that is, the one whose coming is in accord with the activity of Satan, with all power and signs and false wonder
for they are spirits of demons, performing signs, which go out to the kings of the whole world, to gather them together for the war of the great day of God, the Almighty

A wicked and adulterous generation looks for a sign, but none will be given it except the sign of Jonah.” Jesus then left them and went away.

Hope alls well!!!
