PADEMONISME

Abstract

This article is a part of theological studying about personal, nature, and the works of Satan and evil spirits. Satan was created in the beginning as well, and not wicked, because God has made everything good. Like human, Devil also has free will. He employed that will wrongly, when he wanted to be like God alone, then fell into sin. The phenomenon of devil’s possession refers to the vulnerable of human being. Human is like a house, when it is left empty, devil will come into and possess it (Mat 12:43-45). Even after being exorcised, if the house still empty he will return to the house with other evils. According to the Assemblies of God in USA, that believer could not be possessed. The neo-Charismatic prominent such Mark Bubeck, C. Fred Dickason, Kurt Koch, Charles Kraft, Merril Unger, and C. Peter Wagner, convinced that christian could be suffered ”demonization.” This paper will explain Devil in Pentacostal-Charsimatic view.
