    Real-Life Demonic, Exorcism Stories Deliver Spine-Chilling Warnings About Dangers of Dabbling in Occult
    Apr 21 2024

    Exorcism. Possession. Diabolical evil. These themes, which are mainstays in many Hollywood productions, are also deeply rooted in Scripture, with the New Testament highlighting Jesus' ministry of expelling the demonic from afflicted individuals.

    These are themes at the heart of "The Exorcist Files," a podcast created and hosted by Ryan Bethea. He joins us to explain why — and how — these spine-chilling stories show the dangers of dabbling in the occult.

  • 'Casting Demons Out': Ex-NYPD Cop Has Radical Encounter With Jesus, Starts Expelling Evil on the Streets

    'Casting Demons Out': Ex-NYPD Cop Has Radical Encounter With Jesus, Starts Expelling Evil on the Streets
    Mar 26 2024

    Andrew Columbia was once a New York Police Department officer known by his colleagues by some rather unfortunate monikers: "Evil" and "Ice Man." The darkness in his eyes reflected the trauma and difficulty he witnessed day in and day out on the job.

    Columbia would often turn to alcohol for solace as he struggled to comprehend and cope with the horrors he observed. One night, it all came to a head on a New York City rooftop where Columbia screamed out to God — and had a radical encounter.

    Soon, the once-depressed and downtrodden cop was on a very different journey, turning to Jesus, seeking peace, and showing up to police calls to command demonic spirits out of people. From despair to deliverance, Columbia's journey of discovering, discerning, and combatting evil is captivating.

    Today, Columbia is a pastor in Carmel, New York, where he's continuing his mission of sharing his story and the Christian Gospel. He joins today's "Playing With Fire" to break it all down.

Powerful and eye opening

For years my mom and I have complained to each other about the lack of full biblical teachings from the church and how insane it is that a Christians all too often play “footsies” with the occult. Often times on tv shows or in our daily lives when we bring this to the attention of Christian that they are playing with fire by “innocent” occult practices, they snap at us and say that we aren’t to judge them. Where is the church teaching about the dangers of the occult and that the spiritual realm is real and has an affect on our daily lives?! This podcast, especially the second season, is softly unapologetic to this subject that is crucial in our daily lives! I’ve been reading and studying spiritual warfare for years. Derek Prince is the foundation of my studies. Often times, it seems Christians aren’t being taught about this subject and its tragic and frustrating all at the same time. Im noticing a trend of Christianity going towards the new age and I do believe we are actively in a spiritual war against satan for the soul of the church and Christians. Bravo Billy for this podcast! It needs to be heard by all believers and non believers! Put on the full armor of God! The Word of God is the sword - READ IT!!!!!
