Demons

[Quietfire]

A few things in this thread really stuck out.

Pope Leo XIII died in 1903 and if, in fact, that story is true...and why wouldnt it be?....then that brings us to modern day.

I used to see things, much like many of you had. Everything moved interiorly though when I started getting into my faith and understand the Church and her teachings more. I would hear voices telling to hate, to think bad thoughts. Yes, the Rosary helps as well as praying the Hail Mary when that happens. Or if Im tired I tell them to just shut up or my mom(Mary) will kick their butts.


Yeah, there is one story. But it isnt demonic. It was a dream. I woke up crying, but I wont tell it now since it doesnt fit into the thread and in honesty I have to see if its 'played' out. Im not looking for a literal interpretation or 'rerun' of this dream in the reality, that would be asking for way too much but rather I am at least hoping for the same conclusion.
I'll let yall know.

I do remember my sis telling me that one night when we were younger and shared a room she woke up and couldnt breathe because something was on her chest. She said she couldnt move either. She said it was wierd cause she could feel her dog at her side with her head on her stomach but that wasnt it. She was terrified, because she felt it was a demon. She tried to call out to me for help, but couldnt.
She said the only thing she could think of to do was recite mentally, "Get thee behind me Satan." She said it worked.

There is also this from Venerable Anne Catherine Emmerich:

[quote]"many were chained down in a circle which was placed around other circles. In the center of hell I saw a dark and horrible-looking abyss, and into this Lucifer was cast, after first being strongly secured with chains; thick clouds of sulfurous black smoke arose from its fearful depths, and enveloped his frightful form in the dismal folds, thus effectually concealing him from every beholder. God Himself had decreed this; and I was likewise told, if I remember rightly, that he will be unchained for a time fifty or sixty years before the year of Christ 2000."[/quote]

It would appear to corroborate the vision of Pope Leo.
