Those who do not, an never have, been the victim of a Demonic Possession may have some rather strange ideas about what it is. It may be easier to say what it is not.
Forget any ideas from (most) films. There is no 'Speaking in Tongues' (this is a sign of the entry of the Holy Spirit, not of the enemy); there is no turning heads a full 360 degrees or any such-like Hollywood special effects.
It is, wuite simply, the entry into the physical body of an entity which is (Hell-) bent on destruction. Most normally, the destruction of, or harming of, human life or human ideals. Possession does not lead, of intself, to any obvious inability to function in this, or any other, society. Indeed, the most effective agents under Demonic Possession will be the reverse - high-functioning members of society, who can cause most damage. Persons such as Tony Blair, Barak Obama, Joseph Stalin, several of the senior figures in business, banking and ommerce. These are examples of those who currently are Possessed, and have been for some years. I will give evidence for this later.
The Human Spirit is a gift from God. It has been described as a 'mirror which reflects the Face of God' which is a very apt description. No matter how tarnished this mirror may become, it will still refelect some part of the Glory of God. The Devil, being the exact polar opposite, will of course want to not only tarnish this mrror but destroy it utterly. After all, that is his job. Therefore, it is logical that he will want to cause as much sufferring, pain, death and destruction to this mirror as possible - we as individuals are simply 'collatorol damage'.
The main disadvantage the Devil has is the fact that he has no power at all. None whatsoever. Zilch, zero, nichts. He only has the ability to lie, fool, deceive, to use illusions and to tempt us. It is not for nothing that he is dubbed 'The Prince of Lies'.
This means that he, and his agents, use our own self-will against us, the greatest gift given of God, perverted to harm His creation. He tempts us, tells us that whatever we want is good, and whatever gets in the way of us getting it can be removed/estroyed and that is ok. Just like Obama and Blair (amongst others) in Iraq. Ban medical supplies getting to children, then boycott all imports to the country to cause massive epidemics and starvation, then bomb them when the can no longer stage an effective resistance. But it is all good, because it helps Mr Obama get cheap oiul and Mr Blair to win elections. While it is blindingly obvious to anyone with a grain of common sense that their actions are purely evil, they manage to portray themselves (and, no doubt, convince themselves) as the 'good guys' getting rid of an unsavoury leader - even if one who ruled over considerably less death and destruction, poverty and despair, than what has been introduced since the Gulf War, and the vast majority of the death and injury caused under his regime was during the US/UK-financed, supported and orchestrated Iran-Iraq conflict.
The Prince of Lies is good at his job!
Not that I am defending Saddam Hussein. He was not a Godly man by any means, was no doubt under at least a degree of Demonic Possession himself, and was, of course, a follower of the most effective world-wide and historical manifestion of Demonic Possession and Satanism that there has ever been - the Islam 'religion' (or, more accurately, the Mohammadean policical machine, Mohammad being the Prophet of Satan - no doubt a subject for a future post).
Demonic Possession can take many forms. Not all are as obvious as hearing voices (I do).
END OF POST DUE TO NEEDING TO DO SOME BUSINESS - WILL DO A SECOND PART LATER TODAY. MAYBE.
