Let’s look at the original sinner, satan. It was all his idea to decide to go against his Creator and then he convinced others. It was his own heart that failed him because of his arrogance which rose up in him. Jesus Christ made him so beautiful and powerful until he thought he was more powerful than the One Who made him. I found out long ago that all spirits are on a need to know system. Sometimes Jesus Christ will share other things with them out of friendship. But it can all be snatched away, and the brains can be turned upside down at any moment by the Holy Spirit. Evil spirits are allowed to fool you, to test you. God uses them, they have no advantages, accept what God gives them. So whatever Almighty shares with us, can become a distant memory in a split second if we challenge Him, or if we are sharing what we should not share. (Revelations 12: 9, Matthew 25: 41, Deuteronomy 8: 2, Psalm 11: 4 to 5, Ecclesiastes 3:18, Jobe 7: 17 to 18, Jobe 13: 9.)
Look at Cain. Were demons out and about at that time, yes. But it was up to him on whether or not he would let any type of evil rise up into his heart. He was in complete control of letting that happen to him. Able didn’t let evil in his heart? They both had the same power to resist evil. Even when satan had the idea of evil, he should have went to the Father, and asked Him to destroy that part of him, so he could remain clean. Instead he let it soak into his mind, until it overtook his heart with delusions of becoming like Almighty God. He was probably just jealous of Jesus Christ Who is actually a part of Almighty God. He could never be above the Word of Almighty God, the Beloved Son Who created him.
Adam and Eve had a choice, we all do. We are not helpless, we can choose to be righteous. Whether we are persuaded by others or ourselves, we have the God given power to snap ourselves back into place and say no to any type of evil. If someone told you to rob a bank, would you act helpless to sin? No, you would just say, no I will not do that. You have the same power to say no to every other sin. We have no excuses of weakness of the flesh, because Christ showed us the power that we didn’t realize was ours the whole time, our belief, and trust in Him, even in the Garden of Eden. We do what we want to do.
Even if we are captured by the forced lure of evil spirits with witchcraft, drugs, or whatever. Our only true weakness is our own desire. We find ways to keep evil in our lives, because we like or love something about it. Just one thing, either a feeling, memory, or lust, can be the one thing that kills our soul. We must like and love Almighty God and His Great Holy Spirit in Jesus Christ, more than anything that exist. And we must actually hate all evil at 100% in order to love God at 100%. We must understand that all sin equals death, so we can always choose life. Psalms 97: 10.
Many righteous kings and prophets have made many mistakes through out history. Though evil will be encouraged by demons, and most of the time initiated in thought. It is up to the human to choose to be evil at any given moment, whether it is from being persuaded by demons, or because of their own arrogance, lust, greed…and so on. This is why the lake of fire was created for rebellious angels, but was adjusted to also be for evil human beings after the fall of Adam and Eve, who listened to the rebellious angels. This was all concluded in the “Garden Of Eden”, when the failures of the human race began.
Satan the devil decided to become evil on his own. Other angels decided to become demons out of persuasion, with lies from the original devil. Many humans also have decided to become demons in the flesh, with their own free will, after persuasion. It does count heavily against a spirit, who persuades others to rebel against the Creator. Even if they repent, they become the lesser ones in heaven. Whether they gave themselves the idea or someone else did, the punishment is the same, if they don’t repent. (Matthew 5: 19.)
Conclusion:
Yes, humans, just like angels, can come up with evil ideas, when they let bad feelings take over their soul. Demons can’t get anyone to be evil unless they want to be. Captivity and evil spells, that take over a humans free will, are limited to the desires of the heart and mind. Vampires have to have permission to come in the door. Parents and guardians are the ones who open the door to their own children being captured. This captivity can last thru out their lives.What evil do you allow into your home, thru TV, the phone, and friends. Have you taught your child how to use the Word of God? Do they have any defense, when you are not around? It’s your responsibility. Their blood is on your hands because you are their guardian. Fight for your children with the power of Gods Holy Word, Jesus Christ. Teach them!
