MIC'D UP

WHO IS SATAN?
Battling demons.
December 5, 2021 5 CommentsIn this week's Mic'd Up, Michael Voris interviews Charles Fraune, author of Slaying Dragons: What Exorcists See & What We Should Know.
North Charlton • 11 hours ago The author was surprised at the legalism of the exorcist's antagonists. Reminds me of a passage in Bede's History of the English Church and People, where he refers to an Irish monk who had an NDE.
I looked this "Fursey guy" up online and found a 100 some year old book (1907) by Sarah Atkinson at Archive dot Org. More recently NFTU, an Orthodox web site had an article with Vision passages, as well as a link to an alternate translation. It makes for fascinating reading. The both legalism, and the sophistication of a dark ages text surprised me. A representative selection of the legalism portrayed by the demons in the story as Fursey is taken on a journey by protecting angels through the afterlife skirting Hell and accusing demons, and getting a gllmpse of Heaven. As the monk is being conveyed to Heaven escorted by 3 protecting angels, they run a gauntlet of accusing demons.:
"The adversaries, contradicting and reviling, said, “It is unjust for God, for a human who consented to a sinner to be having no condemnation, when it might be having been written: ‘Not only the ones who are doing such things are worthy of death, but even the ones who are consenting to the ones who are doing them.’” (Romans 1:32)
... [a demon] raised up his venomous head like a bruised serpent, saying, “He often brought forth idle speeches; he is not entitled to enjoy a blessed life unharmed.”
The holy heavenly-messenger said, “Unless you might bring-forward principal crimes, he will not perish on account of minute ones.”
The ancient accuser said, “It is written: ‘If you* might not forgive humans their sins, neither will your* heavenly Father forgive you* of your* trespasses.’” (Matthew 6:14~15/Mark11:26 TR)
The holy heavenly-messenger responded, “When did he avenge himself, or to whom has he done wrong?”
The slanderer said, “It is not written: ‘if you* might not be avenging’; but: ‘If any you* might not have forgiven from your* hearts.’” (Matthew 18:35)
The heavenly-messenger of the Lord said, “May we be judged before the Lord.”
The conquered enemy replenished his viperine venoms, speaking, “If the Lord is just, this human will not enter into the kingdom of the heavens; for it is written: ‘Unless you* have been converted, and have become like little children, you* will not enter into the kingdom of the heavens.’ This man has minimally fulfilled this word.” (Matthew 18:3)
The holy heavenly-messenger, explaining, said, “He had innocence in his heart, but he continued according to the custom of a human.”
The slanderer responded, “As he has accepted evil from the custom, so may he be accepting vengeance from the supreme judge.”
The holy heavenly-messenger said, “May we be judged before the Lord.”
[Fursey] ... also beheld unclean demons flying through the fire, waging a horrible war in the midst of the fire. And one of them said, “The servant, who knows his lord’s will and does not do it, was much beaten.” (Luke 12:47)
The holy heavenly-messenger responded, “But what part of his lord’s willdid he not fulfill?”
The spiritual-adversary responded, “It is written: ‘The Most-High is disapproving the offerings of an iniquitous person.’ This man has received gifts from unrighteous persons.” (Sirach 34:19)
The holy heavenly-messenger responded, “For he believed that each one of them had changed their mind.”
The slanderer said, “He should have tested their perseverance in this change-of-mind, and, in this way, to have received the fruit of having done it. For ‘gifts blind the eyes of wise-men, and pervert the words of righteous men.’” (Deuteronomy 16:19)
The holy heavenly-messenger responded, “We are judged before the Lord.”
The deceitful slanderer, succumbing into revilements against the Author of everything, erupted, saying, “Until now we estimated that the Lord was truthful.”
The holy heavenly-messenger responded, “For what else is he?”
The most impudent demon said, “Because he promised, that every sin which is not being purged on the earth will be judged in the heaven, Isaiah the prophet crying: ‘But if any of you* are willing and might hear me, you* will eat the good of the earth; if you* might not will this and might provoke me to anger, the sword will devour you*.’ (Isaiah 1:19~20) “This human has not purged his sins on the earth, nor is he receiving his vengeance here. Where, then, is the justice of God?”
The holy heavenly-messenger, rebuking them, said, “You, adversary, do not revile, while all of you* might not be knowing the hidden judgments of the Lord.”
The slanderer responded, “What is this thing which has been hidden?”
The holy heavenly-messenger said, “As long as a change-of-mind is hoped for, divine mercy attends a human.”
The spiritual-adversary responded, “But here, however, there is no place for a change-of-mind.”
The heavenly-messenger responded, “All of you* are-ignorant of the depth of the mysteries of God; for perhaps there will even be.”
The slanderer responded, “Therefore, may we be parting, while there is not a reason for a judging.” Truly, another of his henchmen said, “There still remains for that man a narrow gate, through which none but a few enter. There we can overcome that man: ‘You will love your neighbor as yourself.’” (Leviticus 19:18)
The heavenly-messenger responded, “This man did good to his neighbors.”
The adversary responded, “It is not sufficient to work good, unless he has loved them as himself.”
The holy heavenly-messenger responded, “The fruit of love is to work good, for the Lord will reward every person according to his works.” (Rom. 2:6)
The dishonest demon said, “But because he has not fulfilled the word of God with love, he should be condemned.”
Truly, the impious multitude fought again, but the holy heavenly messengers were the victors.
The defeated enemy, as was his custom, erupted into revilement, speaking, “If the Lord is not unjust, and if lying and transgressions of his word displease him, this man will not be free from punishment. For he promised to renounce the age, and, on the contrary, he has loved it, against the emissary’s teaching, which says: ‘Do not love the world, nor the things which are in the world’, and the other writings. Neither have the words of this man’s own promise restrained him, nor by the emissary prohibiting it.” (1 John 2:15)
The holy heavenly-messenger responded, “He has loved the things which are of the age, to be dispensed, not only to himself, but to all those who go in.”
The most impious slanderer said, “It does not matter whatever way he might be loved, it is contrary to the divine precept and against the promise of Christianity which is made in immersion. ”
The heavenly-messengers were victorious over their conquered adversaries, and the slanderer returned to his cunning accusations, speaking, “It is written: ‘Unless you announce to a wicked person to turn from his wickedness .... "

Michelle Campbell • 14 hours ago Marvelous and Timely!!!
As I wrote, THE AGE OF THE EXORCISTS IS HERE....✝️✝️✝️
Charles Fraune has been called to the most exciting, yet dangerous Apostolate.
Every time Michael said the words, 'the Church' my soul was confirming for joy!
Precious Ven Archbishop Sheen said at an unpleasant encounter which a teenage
Michael Voris witnessed as an altar boy, 'The Church is God's gift to the world and
I will not have you polluting it'.
Blessed are those who defend the Church's mission commissioned by Christ,
to create saints here in this battleground known as the 'ecclesia militans'!
Have pondered the possibility that Our Blessed Lady would call tens of thousands
of priests, Marian priests who need Her protection in this work as exorcists.
Her along with Sts Benedict and John Vianney engaging in this spiritual warfare.
Thank you again Michael and Charles. Seeing these grotesque Satanists dressed
as the unholy possessed wearing baby masks and diapers pretending to chop up babies in their guilty performances had Christine Niles so aghast as she and Milo
discussed pro-life issues on the DOWNLOAD last week.
Have seen that video before months ago. My reaction was extreme shock and
pity for these 'performers' of such a cold nature.
No pity, no remorse. Revelry doing evil in public.
Pray for these souls who love evil for its own sake.

I agree. Many misinterpret Matthew 10:28 and Luke 12:5 as Christ telling people to fear the devil. No, Christ is telling us to fear God.
