This Exorcist has only been scared TWICE in his career!

[Music] hey chris here from the christophanic show where we talk about how to live out god's plan for you each and every day in your everyday life in a way that makes you more alive and more joyful check it out wow okay um your job is is literally the stuff of horror movies right i mean they they make scary movies out of what you do they do and i don't i don't want to uh i don't want to give the devil too much attention because he's mr look at me and uh very much so right so we we could talk all about that and i'm sorry to disappoint if you're watching for that kind of thing but i i but supernatural things do happen they do and they're freaky right i'm you know i i have a friend who was part of an exorcism in haiti and this woman was cussing four guys out in their own native languages fluently and she never went to school from the mountains of haiti and i mean that's that's just one of like many really crazy uh stories right um is it scary uh well there's two parts of it the first is is that um the types of things that demons do are within a certain kind of a range or a gamut so okay you know after you've been in exercise for two to three years you've seen probably pretty much everything you're going to see right and it's not the devil's not very creative no in fact they're very consistent more so than we would think it seems random to us because we don't know their patterns sometimes but they're actually very consistent so you know the and the church has said these are the three kinds of things that you're going to watch for to give indication that the person is possessed for example and you do see those things people say well have you seen this from like you see in hollywood yeah i've seen all those things but they're not that common in fact those real extreme forms of prayer natural signs that you see probably only occur in about five to seven percent of the caseload you do see things that are pretty natural but not those you know like levitation and things like that those are those are fairly rare so very small percentage people come to you are actually possessed and then a very small percent of people who are possessed uh will levitate or speak other languages or do things that are like this is that's correct so the percentage we actually have statistics that we've been keeping track of the number of people that actually come to us that actually are possessed that that we first hear their initial story and begin the vetting process it's only point five percent so less than one percent of the people it doesn't mean they don't have other diabolic issues but it's less okay and as far as you know the scary part is is it's um because um demons work within a certain set of parameters the church has said look follow these rules and if you stay within your lane you're going to be safe it's when exorcists or priests get outside that that that's when the problems really began and so as long as you stay within that lane generally speak doesn't mean i mean it is stepping into a boxing ring of a sort but it's it's manageable it's not that difficult if you have a strong prayer life people say have you ever been afraid and always tell people to two times that was okay the first time which was thinking to myself i hope i don't do anything stupid right because it's it's your first time right in the driver's seat yeah uh the second time though it's funny because that's the same exact kind of fear that anybody has any new job yeah the second the second time was one time this one demon would not obey so i just turned to god the father mentally and i just said punish him in a way he's never been punished before and there was a full-blown freighter natural manifestation right there and he the demon was screaming and what what the did you say this out loud or just in your just in my own mind i said it i said it to god and so what happens is the the with the fear wasn't in relationship to the demons because they're not really to be feared because they're on a short leash it's what was what i was looking at is the severity of god's punishment for those who disobey him and don't um that reject him so that's what i've looked at i'm like if that doesn't strike the fear of god in you nothing will right literally looking this is what hell looks like so that there was that fear but the but it's really fallen out of style to even talk about that it very much is so it very much is so but but in relationship to the demons there is i there's an experienced exorcist doesn't have any fear he's cautious you have to be careful uh but you don't there's no fear because um they can only do what christ permits and so you know they're restricted and so you know as long as as long as i stay under christ's protection which is basically staying in the lane that the church has said to stay in you're not gonna you're you're not gonna uh you're not gonna suffer any faith yeah faith it's faith and fear don't coexist no they don't you know that that's exactly right yeah that's incredible uh that's really amazing wasn't that cool and by that i mean aren't i cool we know that i'm not but life to the fallen jesus is really cool so make sure you subscribe and never miss out on this great content that empowers you equips you to live life to the full [Music]

SS:

The early part of the conversation isn't quite routine (possession and preternatural manifestations during exorcism are rare, whoodathunkit). At the linked time the Fr mentions a "demon who not obey" creating a "full blown preternatural manifestation", but sadly doesn't describe it.

IDK if he's given other more detailed interviews; there seems to be a bias against "giving the devil publicity".

I’m sorry but I just don’t believe this shit.

Old men who believe in religion to this degree needs psychiatric evaluation. They need help, they are sick.
