 Okay, good to have you back. We'll get started There is a question in the chat section It says, ma'am, does demons know where we are lacking a week? So they make their way in that area Yes This this question the answer is yes, they know where where we are weak Okay, so that's another thing for us to be careful about because Demons as we said earlier They have an like an hierarchy a structure They are specialized. They're looking for places where they can be most efficient Okay, so if they find a weakness, they know that they can shine in that area of weakness And so yes in our lives, we have to be very careful We have to do our best to be strong in the Lord and overcome those areas of weakness I love God to come in like you know pray about those areas of weakness and say God, you know Please help me. Give me your word. Give me your your Ideas on how I can be strong is sometimes if we are weak in a certain area One of the good thing is to to Flee from it. Okay. So just if you feel like, you know, lust is your problem or addiction of some sort or lying or money whatever What we can do is we try to keep ourselves out of that zone If I know like if I go there, I'll get tempted to gossip. I just don't go there. Please get away from that place Okay, so that's one of the ways in which we can protect ourselves. So you we need some strategies Personal strategies to take care of ourselves Okay, we'll talk about it. This also will be there later, but I hope you got your answer I just have a small question. Yes, it's lingering in my mind in the last class as well but Are angels or demons visible to our eyes because there are some scripture portions Which says like, you know, I saw angels descending and ascending up to heaven But in reality when you hear people say that, you know, I saw an angel. I saw a demon. How true or false is it? Okay, so our angels or demons Visible, okay Firstly, we have to understand they are spirit beings. They don't have a body. We just clarified that even angels But then the angels, we know that they have Like a glorified form of some sort. God has given them. Okay, their structure and their form now demons very clearly We saw they are disembodied spirits. They don't have a structure that kind of a body here on the earth Now after saying that When you say like, you know, I saw angels ascending and descending I think it's John chapter one, right? Like versus 40, you know One way of looking one way of perceiving angels is through a spirit eyes So it need not be naturalized Okay, either when we are praying or even otherwise we may sense a spiritual the spiritual realm and The happenings in the spiritual realm creatures in the spiritual realm okay, so The way we are actually seeing them. They are form one ways through our spiritual eyes They don't like in the natural form and shape. They may not exist But in the spiritual they exist and our spiritual sense is picking it up. Okay, so that is one way second is can they have a form in the natural answer is yes sometimes Angels heavenly beings can take form and shape Okay, and they can appear momentarily, how do we know that when you go back to the stories of Abraham, you know, the angels came they fed the angels that they hosted the angels a lot The angels came he protected them. He kept them inside the house. So there are times for whatever reason God may Physically into the natural realm send angelic beings and they Visible now what we've noticed is they take a form They took the human form and they came right is that their actual form? No, they can take a form and they can come Doesn't answer your question. Yes. So in line with that. So let us say you you Yeah, I'll just come to the question Okay, please So let's say we meet a lot of people in life in day-to-day life and when you see someone being extremely Manipulative or you know that form of deception with an intent So sometimes is it right for us to conceive that he or she is demon possessed or it's a form of a thing Or is it wrong to just Determine based on the character and then conclude that Because we are times also at fault we are times also sin Okay, so see it's helpful to know where the issue lies So you're talking about maybe an individual who seems to be very deceptive manipulative now What is the source? You know that is causing that person to be like that We could look at it at I am just stating three Areas that I am aware of no, I don't know if there are other areas one is demonic Okay, so if that individual was weak You know mentally in terms of their willpower and all that then demons can take charge They can influence so the person could be Influenced by demons or when they are an unbeliever We might even see that they are demon possessed and the demon is actually working through them So that is one source Secondly, we could say that physically they're not well. Okay, sometimes you have chemical imbalances in the body Temporarily, you know, somebody has gone through a surgery and then they're suddenly like, you know, they're behaving different They are acting different But that is what is the cause of that that there are some issues, you know In terms of the body Composition and how things have changed, right? So then you have to address that. That's not a demonic issue So that's another way like physio physiology. Look at the physiology third is mental Psychological so that if we identify that somebody has an issue Psychologically then the approach that we would take is to actually counsel them and see if they need any medication Got it. So we have to diagnose it correctly. Okay, otherwise if we look at anyone who has Problem like a personality issue and we just tag them and say hey demon possessed We may not actually find the solution for that person So we have to be very careful very careful And I know in the Christian circles because we talk about demons and all the easiest thing to do is to just say this person is demon possessed but That may not be the actual source. Okay, fine. All right any other Questions before we move on It has a question about hard copies of books. So we do not Courier hard copies a shubo. We have posted the same notes in Google Classroom and E-Learn you can download it. You can print it out if you prefer a printed copy But yes for our on-campus students we do print but for online students We don't courier printed notes. Okay, so that would be the answer. I hope it's okay. Lucy. Please go ahead I'm so sorry. I am muted you because I wasn't sure if you were asking a question Sister sister in the area. I stay in Perform some demonic activities that sacrifices and the woman who who was possessed and all with them seeing That was in my in my in the front of my house itself. Okay, hi. How do I rebuke? such things happening in our area and to keep ourselves under the protection we declare the day I was in prayers and I declared God's protection and And But in our areas where the other children are getting involved in that activities even like Roman Catholics and such other children where How do I speak to those kids and? Okay, so to protect yourself I think you we can make declarations Lucy as we said Sam 91 is a good scripture to go to and we could also I'll just read out another passage for us It's a one John chapter 5 and verse 18 Where it says we know that whoever is born of God does not sin But he who has been born of God keeps himself and the wicked one does not touch him So basically what the scripture is saying is that when we are born again? We are born of God. We are God's children. That is the first thought second thought is Such a person who's born again keeps himself meaning they are walking in the path of righteousness So as long as we are walking in the path of righteousness Satan has no access So our declaration is I keep myself. I'm born of God. I keep myself The evil one does not touch me So let the if these activities are happening, you know in your lane or next next door. Don't worry Okay, nothing will happen to you because you are under God's protection and the evil one cannot touch you That's what the order of God says unless he has believers provide access and we'll talk about it later Is that I do the area. How can I declare God's word in the area to the for the area Pray for the area pray for the area, you know bless the area declare the word of God over that Region pray for the young people pray for their minds Right and you can engage in binding losing, right? You can do all of that you can take authority as the Holy Spirit leads you as you discern by the Holy Spirit You can operate in authority. These are all things that you can do But another way of approaching generally Can one person pray for protection against demonic spirits over a region? Yes, but more Effective would be if you have two or three more people In a group you get together and you pray for your area or We say that corporate prayer for the city for a region corporate prayer is so much more I mean it it's not about effectivity, but There is something about Especially in spiritual warfare when you're talking about dealing with You know demons or over the region and all that so you can get together in groups also Lucy and pray Thank you sister. Okay. Sure. Sure. Uh, yes, let's now go to sister Gertrude. You have a question sister Yeah, sister. I have a question Sister if you have the gift of discerning spirits, then can you see the spirit whether angelic or demonic? Yes, so Yes, sister. We can so there are The nine gifts of the Holy Spirit described in 1st Corinthians chapter 12 One is the gift of discerning of spirits So as the name suggests we are able to identify You know whether there is a spirit from God or if it is an evil spirit If it is an evil spirit Sometimes I mean I've seen in my own observation people are able to tell which spirit it is without asking You know, what is your name and all they can easily tell it is this spirit. It's operating like this So that is the ability that the gift of discerning of spirits is able to give us now example You can think about Apostle Paul sister Gertrude. You remember Yeah, in in Philippi. There is a girl with a bit of divination. She goes around telling everyone These are the servants of God. Listen to them. Listen to them. But Paul gets angry with her I mean, she's doing positive publicity. She's saying listen to them Paul must have been happy that more people are going to come but he was upset. Why because he understood that that spirit is not from God And he rebuked he cast out the demon spirit from that slave girl Okay, how did Paul know Same thing discerning of spirits by the Holy Spirit. He could tell that a demon spirit is operating Okay, is that fine Yeah, sure Okay, uh, yes, Shani Yeah, um, okay. So you asked a question about us being able to see demons But in terms of I know you say what angels it can be in a natural form in terms of humans Can demons be that way in terms of in the form of humans too? My answer is yes Okay Yeah Okay, uh, and and you know these things happen momentarily Temporarily they just present themselves and they are gone Okay, so they just take that form maybe to attract um people and all that um, but yeah, I'm not able to think of any any incident in scripture Where a demon took a human form Okay, so I am not able to think of that as of now But my answer is yes. Okay. Thank you. Yeah, sure Okay, so I think we have exhausted the questions but More questions might line themselves up soon, but we'll go further So far we've seen the characteristics of demons. We said that they are specialized. They are territorial and Now let's talk a little bit about satan Okay, satan. We understood where he came from and you know, uh, what he's up to Now satan has many names That's what we observe In various passages of scripture Now, why do we study the names of satan? because These names will tell us what job he does He what is his character looks like So go ahead and look at those names if you're comfortable um Looking at another language as well. You can do that for your better understanding But i'm just gonna quickly go through What is given in our notes here? So satan, we know He's called as the devil Okay, other names that he carries Uh, all these are from scripture. Of course, it's there in our notes other names would be adversary Adversary means enemy Okay, somebody who's opposing us so adversary Or enemy some places that word enemy is used Um slanderer is used revelation 12 9. What is slanderer slanderer is somebody who um Like speaks evil Of another person like just to uh, just to kind of tear down their their image or tear down their You know their opinion among people. So that's a slanderer and the bible says that satan is like that He will slander he will slander people Let's move on. Um, he's also called as the Accuser. Okay. Why is he called as the accuser? Obviously he he does that job. So how does he do this accusing job? Yes Doesn't he remind people to pass By accusing him is that one way? Yeah, you're right. So, uh, it's one of the ways in which he Accuses people by bringing up the past, but he could also um, magnify a lie and Try to deceive people Right, he would accuse you if you go back to adam and eve Did god really say right? He started like that. You will become like god So he what he was trying to do is he was trying to um Like put god in a in a place where he was saying look god is preventing you from having the best So there's like an accusation against god. Uh, and uh When it comes to us our identity like Even to adam and eve he questioned their identity He put a question in their mind that actually are not perfect. There's something that you're missing out Okay, uh, and So you're not good enough You're not good enough So he just begins to put these lies into our minds accusers before god like you're not good enough. You're not capable Uh, and and that's the way he functions and that is why he's known as the accuser But also in the book of revelation chapter 12 verse 9 he's called as the accuser He's called as the accuser. That's his job. So when we Hear accusation in our minds, right? So one of the sources from where it's coming is Satan Satan will accuse Whereas god in his word. He has affirmed us About who we are in christ Okay, uh, and that's why we must be aware when we are aware of the word of god Then we won't easily Allow satan to do whatever he wants to do. Okay, so that's one of his jobs accusing accusing and he loves to do it all the time Okay, and uh, we'll read about we read about it's a battle for all of us It's a battle Some point or the other he'll try to talk to us and say no You're not holy enough. You're not strong enough. You know, you don't know the word properly This and that and but when we give into it, that's when we become weak and we fall instead What should we do? What did jesus do and satan came with suggestions? He yeah, he talked about the word of god. Jesus said it is written It is written. So you see knowing the word is what gives us the strength against satan So the accuser can do his job But as long as we know the word and we speak it against the devil We are victorious in our battle. Okay, so he's an accuser then other names that are given to him would be Serpent old serpent dragon Deceiver In one Peter five eight He's like a roaring lion Okay, why roaring lion? What what characteristic comes out? dominating Okay. Yeah how about Just trying to scare people Or if you put it as Intimidate people He loves to Make us fearful Okay, but oh satan might do this satan might do that So that's his way of projecting himself as something bigger than what actually is so he's like a roaring lion Roaring lion is scary Everyone's scared like if you hear a lion roar So he's like a rolling lion because he loves to intimidate people and cause fear in people's hearts He's a tempter to jesus. Did he did he spare jesus? No, even jesus he tried to tempt And he said i'll give you all the kingdoms. Okay, just bow down worship me. Thank god. Jesus knew the word He said no it is written It is written Okay, so the best way to fight the devil Is know the word and have the word You know settled in our hearts and bring it up against the devil every time he says something you say the word Okay, so that's how we uh battle. That's how we overcome. He's a tempter Time to time he'll tempt Okay, that's that's his job. He's always looking at you know, when can when can this person fall? When can any believer or anybody he's after everyone and he wants people to fall That's what he desires, right? So his job is to tempt people. He's a deceiver Again going back to the garden of Eden deception only, isn't it? Did god really say? And He showed them the apple or whichever fruit that is apple controversial again So the fruit and it was good for the eyes and uh, you know, they were misled The people were misled because he told them half truth. You will become like god But he didn't say that you you will uh that You know disobeying god is wrong. You will miss out on the privileges that you have now He didn't tell the full truth only a little bit truth when we speak little truth. What happens? It's like deceiving someone you're telling people that It is a certain way. Whereas it's not there's so much more to it, which is a different way So that is deception and so satan is known as a deceiver loves to fool people and waiting Uh for those who will give him to his lies and deception Then god of this world in 2nd Corinthians 4 4 it says the god of this world has blinded the eyes of the people And notice it doesn't say capital g Right, even the translators have made it small g. Okay god of this world Uh When we call him the god of this world, we must always remember that satan Is no comparison to god. Tell me why let's let's compare come on. What's so different god and satan? Our sister god is a creator and satan is a creation Yeah, so god is a creator Whereas satan is creation. How can you compare? There's no comparison. We are also created so We are here to worship god because he is eternal creator creator god Okay, so we must remember that satan is just a created being So when we say god of this world, he has power to manipulate for a season So maybe that is why he's termed as the god of this world But that doesn't mean he's god. There's no comparison between god and satan Okay, and uh, I mean we can talk about so many other things the uh character of god the character of satan the power of god God is all powerful above everyone. How much power does satan have limited? Limited there are only certain things that he's allowed to do in this season after this season that will also be gone Okay, uh, and um, yeah, he is limited by himself. There's only one satan When we talk about god we talk about the characteristics Or the attributes of god we say uh omni present omni potent omniscient god knows everything God um is everywhere and god is able to do all things. He's all powerful Can we say that about satan? We cannot he does not know everything His thinking is also very limited. How each one of us are knowledge in a lifetime. How much knowledge we can have He that it that's as much as his knowledge goes He's limited in his knowledge. He can't be everywhere. He can be in only one place at one time Because he's a created being okay, uh, is he all powerful? Can he do anything everything cause calamity actually? No, he can't He is limited power Okay, so these are things we must remember just because it says god of this world It doesn't mean that he is he has capacities like god. He's not no comparison to god. He's a Created being okay, um prince of the air Prince of the air Prince of the air Also means that like he is the commander Of the demonic kingdom Okay, sometimes people refer to it as the second heavens It's not the heaven the where god is but people just use the term like second heavens okay, so uh Maybe that's why he's called as the prince of the air, but our understanding is that he's ruling over the demonic world Okay, angel of light. He can appear like the angel of light Again, this is part of his deceptive work. He looked like an angel, but don't trust him Okay, so the appearance of something nice something good, but it'll only lead us to destruction So he comes in like an angel of light Beelzebub is another name Beelzebub means the lord of the dung Okay, so uh one way of looking at this is Or the lord of the flies That's the meaning of Beelzebub. So think about this if there is a plate of food Which is uh Like leftover food, which is unattended. Can you just take a plate of Leftover food and you leave it outside your house. Okay In a couple of hours, what can you expect? Yeah flies some insects They'll just come towards that food because it's rotting isn't it so the this term Beelzebub It indicates that his activity is like that When there is sin in our lives Right, he he can attract himself to that he'll come there And he can do what he wants to do Okay, but what if the plate is clean you just clean the plate, you know, it's uh squeaky clean you put it back Who do you see flies coming to the clean plate? Never because there's nothing left in that plate They there's got to be something rotting for these insects to come in but this name Beelzebub reflects on The way he behaves if there is sin in our lives whether we like it or not He knows where to come He knows how to get entry and then he'll do his stuff So we have to be careful But if we don't allow sin we just read one john chapter five verse 18 No, we are born of god and uh one who's born of god he keeps himself meaning we are walking in righteousness There's nothing in our lives which is not exposed before god already. So if we are living like that No king of the flies king of the dung cannot come Right. So that is our understanding now. Let's move on Uh, Belial is another name that he has Belial means Worthlessness without profit destructive So each one of these titles is painting A clearer picture for us about who the satan is, you know, like a Deceiver accuser and Person who's working against god evil one wicked one Jesus said the thief comes to steal kill and destroy Okay, so he's a thief. He steals from us. He steals our peace. He steals our joy. He steals our energy our time our relationships if we allow him to do that So the thief comes to steal kill and destroy other names that are used for satan murderer father of lies Speaking lies into our minds. Um, so this is how satan is. Let's stop for a little bit and maybe Take up some questions All right, i'll come to you shani. There's a comment here in the chat section Sanjay says satan is always looking for filth To accuse us. Okay, because he is the lord of the tongue. Correct. Yeah, sure brother sanjay. We just discuss that Uh, go ahead shani Yeah, what did you say the prince of the air? What does that mean he go over that please? Yeah, so, um You see in the in the Bible There there is a mention of the third heavens okay, third heavens and possibly because of that there is also Um, I mean I've heard people say the second heavens. It's not mentioned in scripture And the second heavens is something like you know when we read about daniel And how there was there was a war between again going back to prince of asia prince of greece Michael so they were warring in between. They're not in heaven. Okay, uh, but they're not not even on the earth so It it is said that the kingdom the demonic kingdom Dwells in the second heavens. It's there is some such concept And so based on that probably he has been called as the prince of the air Oh, okay. I understand. Thank you. Yeah, sure. Okay. Yes, uh coffee I like to know why Satan is called the morning Why is he called as the morning star? Uh-huh. Yes the morning star Okay, so, uh this term the metaphor morning star is from asia 14 and verse 12 and my take on it is he I mean he had that kind of a glory when he was in heaven So probably that is why he was termed as the morning star So, yeah, but that's all I have to say unless there's someone else you you have more Uh information about that Well, thank you Yeah, all right. Thank you so much. Uh, I'll come here now To warren warren, uh, please go ahead Yeah, uh, I mean you mentioned like, you know that that satan sort of tempts us and accuses us now Uh, obviously he would be accusing, you know putting thoughts in our head So does he have the power to enter our minds and enter our heads to tell us things? Okay, so does he have the power to enter our minds? Um, see he can he can plant thoughts in our in our mind warren Uh, and that is something we know because we've already discussed. He's a deceiver accuser What is that suggestions? Right. He gives us suggestions Um, entering our mind would be through his suggestions I don't think uh as a as a being He would enter our minds to present these ideas I I hope that's okay. But did you did you get your answer or are you looking for something? Yeah, for example now, for example like say we have we've had a failure in the past And then we we say okay, and you know, we confess to God and Uh, we try to get you know, forget what's happened in the past, but from time to time We suddenly there are times when we can reflect on it and you know, these things come back to tell us, you know Yeah, this is what I did. But isn't that our just our own self trying to you know, go back to what was happened rather than you know, it's the Sort of Satan telling us because obviously, I mean, yeah, he can put things in the in the way Who remind us of those things but when it comes to we are sitting alone and thinking about The past it's just us reflecting on the past, isn't it? Okay. All right. I I see where you're coming from So if we Consider what is said in second Corinthians chapter 10 I'll quickly just read a few verses there from verse four It says for the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down Strongholds casting down Arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God Bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ. Okay, so that was second Corinthians chapter 10 Verses four and five at the end of verse four There's a term known as strongholds pulling down strongholds. So the primary way in which satan Wants to affect us is by giving suggestions. Okay, so that would um cover accusations Deceptions lies the whole bag. Okay off of such things Now what you're talking about Warren is Let's say we entertain those thoughts Okay Then there is a progression again. We are going to talk about this a little later on in the mind, you know Generally the norm is that on the outside These thoughts come to us We kind of receive them or we reject them. Okay But if we entertain them if we receive them It could so happen that we can progress to something known as a stronghold in the mind That's where it is in the mind Warren at that point What is happening is inside? And demon spirits can gain access to the strongholds and we could even say that Demons spirits dwell in those strongholds. They come and live there because what is a stronghold? A stronghold is like a fortress right a fortress that protects people people used to live within that fortress now What is a mental stronghold? It's a place where demons can live So that's when the whole demons entering into the mind Living there all of that happens and going back to shani's question. Can a believer be demon possessed? I said no believer cannot be demon possessed because holy spirit is inside us but when we said a believer can be demonized it means Demons can live in the stronghold of the mind You got it. Holy spirit is living in the spirit, but demon spirit is operating in the mind Okay, so Warren I went a little deeper than required probably. I hope I didn't confuse you No, that was perfect. Thank you very much. Okay. Thank you so much. All right. Let's move on Sanjay. Yes Yes, I would just like to add a thought to what brother Warren had shared When it comes to thoughts Broadly we can divide thoughts into Originating from two kingdoms either the thought is coming from the kingdom of light is coming from god Or the thought is coming from the enemy and so if we look at thoughts as a seed We need to know what the fruit of that seed is if the enemy puts a thought into our mind Whether even though it's seemingly good. What is the fruit of the thought? Where is it leading? if that thought is leading to something that is Not edifying for us as believers or not edifying to the body of christ We can assume that thought is coming from the enemy But whenever god gives us a thought or idea or a scripture It is for our edification to build us up in christ or to build the body of christ So we need to look at we need to be able to see the fruit From the seed or whatever thought is in our minds. Where is it leading us? Just just the thought on that. That's all. Okay. Sure. Thank you for you know adding That point as well. We appreciate that So sanjay is saying when there's a thought we need to consider where it's leading What the fruit of that thought is and then sort of you know accept it or let it go Sure All right, let's move ahead then we talked about satan his character and things that he does And his names suggest you know what what his Role is and you know what what he does in people's lives now coming to the list of the kinds of demonic spirits We've already stated that demon spirits are very specialized And here is a list for us to consider I'll quickly read a few names and They'll they're quite self-explanatory. So spirit of antichrist deceiving spirits doctrines of demons Jealous spirit familiar spirit blind spirit deaf and dumb spirit So each spirit will do what they are called to do and this one thing the familiar spirit right familiar spirit Is what diksha mentioned she I was asking do demons know what our weaknesses are So sometimes there are certain demons. That's their job. They they they literally like analyze you they scan you And they can mimic They can mimic you and they they know you through and through familiar spirit. They've become very Acquainted with us and then they can sort of play around So all all these spirits and the jobs that they do you can just understand it by the names that they have spirit of infirmity foul spirit spirit of disobedience spirit of divination lying spirit perverse spirit spirit of heaviness So we understand that many such You know manifestations Are not just normal and natural. They can have a demonic origin But not always. Okay, don't call everything demonic. That is error If let's say, you know, if you pick up spirit of heaviness here, which is mentioned in Isaiah 61 if someone's feeling down and Every time we say, hey, that's a spirit of heaviness. Come on. Let me cast it out That may not be the case. Maybe they're just a little upset and sad Because something happened. Okay, let them be. Hopefully they'll recover from it and feel better later on But there is something known as a spirit of heaviness now even after encouragement and everything All the council and the situation changing the person is still very sad Right and things are not changing. Maybe maybe there is a demonic Influence behind that. So that's how you diagnose. That's how you analyze Okay, so that would be a list of different spirits Some more information about demon spirits Demon spirits believe and tremble before god. There are scriptures written right next to these Statements so you could actually go and look up those scriptures. I'm just reading it out So demons know that Who god is and they tremble before god Then demons have names. We've already seen that they have degrees levels of power wickedness Demons have will they have the freedom to choose Okay, it's it's not like we can override their will because they're also what are they they're they're just fallen angels Either way god has created them. They have a choice. They decide what they want to do So they have a will and freedom to choose Okay, demons know believers who walk in authority Demons are fallen angels and not dead people. I think we clarified that last time When people say that a dead person is there his spirit is there Biblically, there's nothing like that when somebody dies. They either go to heaven or You know, they are waiting for the judgment in hell. So that's what it is So human beings cannot continue their spirits cannot continue on earth if they die Who's on the earth? Remember Matthew 12 the spirit they roam around Okay, they go here and there to find themselves a house So demon spirits can mimic that dead person and give that Appearance of you know, that dead person being in that home or saying something And all that. Okay. Come on. Now. Let's move on I think we've we've already dealt with whatever has been listed here And there's a little bit of Information about angelic beings. We've talked about it as well. We said angels are ministering spirits Who help those who are born again But how to activate angels by the word of God? So declarations are something that we can make to see Angels at work Talking a little bit more about angels We've listed out, you know different kinds of angels here. So there are Assignment angelic beings called cherubin They have specific assignments whenever we talk about Michael. See I told you satan likes to copy So in the kingdom of God, there are specific assignments. That's why in his kingdom also there are specific assignments. So notice there Like Michael is a warrior angel Whenever you hear about Michael it would have to do something with you know what battle and God wants battle. He'll send his warrior angel So there are different angels that which have their own functions What about Gabriel? What kind of an angel do you think he is? Messenger okay announcement So he sent when there is an announcement to be made Then there are Destroying angels or they can also be termed as plague angels that also come into war During divine judgments. So the passages are given here for us to refer to There are Ministering angels that I talked about they are helping angels. They'll come and help the believers Right. So those are known as ministering angels There's another category of angels known as the seraphim seraphim are Worshiping angels in the presence of God, you know, you read about angels with wings. They cover their face and They fly around they worship God. They are seraphim. So there are categories even when it comes to angels. So that's briefly about angelic beings satan and His demons We will move on to the next topic here Next week. So I won't start off with chapter four Yeah, chapter four methods of working. We will begin in the next class Um, before we close this morning and anything more to Ask or share. Okay, sister Gertrude She asks when you have panic attacks and anxiety. What spirit is it? Uh, so the same answer stands sister. Uh, Gertrude, I mentioned earlier that everything is not a spirit When we have anxiety, uh panic attacks Maybe it has to do with the way we are You know processing things Um, and so it could just be at the psychological level and if we can find help We might see that it gets better on its own But if it doesn't after all the intervention, then yeah, it's probably demonic Thank you, sister Okay I've never been asked this question. Uh, but yeah, obviously the answer is yes So the question uh that was uh asked is does saving have any feelings? So he has because you know, he has a personality. He has a mind So, yeah What feelings? I don't know Does he have feelings? Yes Yeah Yeah, very good question. Yeah So the face of stefan, right when he was being martyred Uh, the scripture says that it looked like the face of an angel Okay, uh People's people felt that it looked like the face of an angel. So he's asking me. How do they know what the face of an angel is like? Maybe I mean they would have heard it from uh Others it's just my imagination because you know when you read about people like zacharias Right. He as a priest he was inside and then he comes out From the presence of god Maybe Men like him would have shared with the people saying hey, I saw this I saw this vision I saw the angel looked like this like that Maybe they just shared and the people had that picture in their minds And when stefan looked like that they said hey, he looks like an angel So, yeah, I feel like that's how Okay, all right Yeah, so deeksha's question of a person dies. Where will their spirit go as I stated earlier if they are a believer The spirit will go directly into heaven If they are an unbeliever go to hell Okay, uh till the final judgment. So final judgment. We know that there are other things to come But up until that time, that's where they will directly go, but definitely they will not be on the earth Okay, so since we have Reached the end of our session here Let's close in prayer other questions.
