It could very well be. I mean, now we also have instances where demons will, you know, Bible says Satan can appear as a demon. a counterfeit of light. In other words, he can pass himself off as being from God or whatever. So we have to be careful because that's why we have the Bible, I think, to kind of be a plumb line to test, is this legit or not?
Because demons, they can possess people, they can influence people, they can harass people, they can appear in different ways. I think we talk about ghosts. I think ghosts are demons. Because a technical definition of a ghost is someone who dies and their spirit refuses to enter into the next life. Well, that's not a biblical definition. a description of what can happen.

So if ghosts are not biblical in that sense, maybe they're demonic. And I believe they are. I believe that, you know, are ghosts real? Well, there's some instances where we see apparitions that I believe are ghostly apparitions that have been quite real, but I believe they're satanic.

Well, we have physical mobility in the sense of we are a body. We are a spirit who has a body. So God created us. It's a dualistic thing. We are spirit, but we're also physical. We also have a physical body. That's an advantage in some ways, I think. We're also... I think in the pecking order, we're actually above angels. Really? In many ways, yeah.

I think, well, actually in the Psalms it says we're created a little bit lower than the angels. But I think there are ways in which we kind of have capabilities that angels maybe don't have. And I mean, in terms of having a physical body gives us certain advantages that a spirit doesn't. that doesn't have a body, would not have.

Well, a definition of a Christian would be someone who has done exactly what he said. In other words, someone who confesses that Jesus is Lord, Jesus is God, repents of their sin, turns from their sin, admits that, receives this free gift of forgiveness and eternal life that Jesus purchased for us on the cross when he died as our substitute to pay for all of our sins.

When that happens, when a person, the Bible says, the verse that brought me to faith, John 1, 12, but as many as received him, to them he gave the right to become children of God, even to those who believe in his name. So the formula there is believe plus receive equals become. So we believe based on the data, I believe anyway, based on the data of history, that Jesus is who he claimed to be.
