Once it is done it is done.
Only return to loose control, only return is to loose control.
It is not involuntary, you feel you want to, you are deceived and it is powerful. As if the very voice were your will.
You have all felt it (at least if you have had twitches in a muscle (often they may occur around the eyes)), if you think about it, it is as if there were a longing for the twitch, allthough you are really bothered about it. Like if "it's going to happen anyway, better that you want it" but somehow the other way around. Don't ask me.
The voice in the head of those that are possessed can be very empowering, it moves you, you fight back giving it energy to continue moving you. It doesn't feel natural at that point to loose control, but if you loose your control, he looses his control over you (you are you, you shouldn't have to fight for you, the inability to grasp this is fueling him and making you "want" to follow him). This is not the full answer though, and shouldn't be treated as such, that is not the intention of this thread either! If I could I would help every last one of those possessed. But it is done by love by the ones near, and the love within the individual.
Most people have experianced voices in the head, (not only thoughts, but spontanious voices), the difference is that they aren't that empowering over you, so you don't see it as a threat, but often it is in situations that you need advice. I got the drivers license last week, and when I drive in certain situations I can almost hear my teachers voice, also my fathers voice, repeating the advices I got in a similiar situation before. This 'hole in the filter' is probably needed because of such things, that others teachings sometimes should go past the filter and give you advice when it is needed. However like a computer can be open for hackers, so I believe that this hole can be a entry point for evil forces. It is believed that evil can only come in if they are invited, I have no support for this in the bible, but let's for a second assume that it is so. Cause there must be some restrictions for demons and such evil (or we would all be lunatics), could also be that most people are aware of this security hole, and are guarding it somehow (or just totally ignore everything that comes from it), could also be that our nature of sinning determines what restrictions and what resources the evil forces may have with us (however let us not stay too long wondering from their view) also of course how much we actually sin of what we are tempted (and how eager we are to change it for the better).
We should guard our "castle" (temple), it actually doesn't take much, you don't have to visualise yourself in a armor going about to destroy the enemy. If that was the case, would anyone make it? Once, twice, but your whole life?
Be on guard though, but don't expect too much, cause if you expect too much, you think that you need to do much more to face it.
The rules are made so there is a way to follow them, for anyone, for you.
--this is also one of the reasons why there is a importance for believing in God, that we are made to succeed, that we get justice in the end, and that is worth fighting for--
I know there is much injustice in the world. One that is self-knowing shouldn't have to die, it's not something that anyone should face, the fear of not knowing, cause in this life we will never know.
We live now, what is death compared to life?
Fear is like food for bad things. Not that fear in itself is bad for you, it keeps you from doing dangerous things, but since fear is unnatural in the greater schemes of things (we wouldn't be afraid if we lived with God) the evil can use it against us to make us do things that are sinful.
This is not something new, anyone that has been bullied knows about these things.
Fear can also be a motivation to keep sinning.
So fear is needed, but it shouldn't rule over us. Use your fear to keep you from doing harmful things (if you rob banks, use your fear in a way that keeps you from robbing banks, instead of using it as motivation to avoid getting caught, quitting robbing banks will also keep you from getting caught, for as long as you want - and without fear).
Life is hard, it isn't easy. Imagine having voices in your head telling you in the most demanding voice you have ever heard, so demanding that you can't keep yourself from following it. Not strange that some can mistaken it with God. But when it is God you will know, when it is evil, you will allways be unsure and feel uncertain. Evil uses fear, God uses truth. (I write this so that you can get a sense of the difference), I guess we should fear God, not fear Him, but fear for our inability to do what is right in His eyes, fear to do wrong against His (law)s. Fear because we know that He is the ultimate ruler. The creator of all things, visible and invisible.
However, God doesn't use this fear against us, He doesn't want us to follow Him because of fear, but because of love, because when we follow Him we do the right thing. That is my understanding of it (as is the rest in this post).
We shouldn't really have to build in disclaimers, people should trust eachother.
Would we have to lie if we did the right thing? How easy is it to defeat evil when you do it yourself? If you were to face it, would you be able? If someone got lost, could you lead him right?
We reep what we sow.
