This did not cause Judas to start spewing vile profanities, or have his heard start spinning in circles. Scripture says that Satan entered Judas (Luke 22:3 John 13:27). This might be true.īut then there is the example of Judas. Of course, some could argue that they were not possessed, but were only being influenced by Satanic forces.

For example, there is the man possessed by a legion of demons (Mark 5:6-13). When we read of the ministry of Jesus in the Gospels, we find many circumstances where Jesus encountered people who were possessed by demons. We can assume that Satanic minions also use similar tactics to deceive and trick people into thinking something is good and holy, when in fact, it is of the devil. Satan, after all, masquerades as an angel of light (2 Cor 11:14). We must be extremely careful on this question, because many people have been falsely labeled as being a possessed by a demon, and such an accusation can be terribly frightening and disturbing.įurthermore, I do not think that the signs of demonic possession are as obvious as many seem to think.

In a previous post we considered the question, “ Can a Christian be demon-possessed?” we said no.
