As an exorcist, I’d encourage everyone to stop calling people demons. We are all facing quite a bit of political stress these days and we do no good for our own minds or the minds of others when we label them as evil entities and make them out to be less than the image of God that they are.
The people groups that make you uncomfortable are not demons. The people in the political group you don’t like are not demons. Even satanists themselves are not demons.
When we typify the other as a “demon” instead of as our “neighbor,” we set the stage for horrors to be done through us. For when people are no longer human, we no longer feel the need to love them like Jesus instructed. Instead, they become a force to be demeaned or extinguished, which lines up perfectly with what demons do: steal, kill, and destroy. That being said, it is a demonic trap to demonize.
While no one is a demon, we do buy into demonic ideologies. But before you go blaming someone for that, remember that the Bible says every single human has cooperated with the demonic in this way. All except Jesus have held hands with Sin and asked for his instruction.
People aren’t demons. And neither are you. Choose love. Choose Jesus.
