Question: why do you feel that your personal testimony is valid but no one else's is? You have told me that you are a Buddhist and about reincarnation.
These people share their testimony and you dispute it.

Because those people are not here. I am having a debate with you, and not them. I cannot debate a video, not because it is right or wrong, but because it cannot answer my questions.
You are hiding inside of your cage, and this is evidence of that.

One man's delusion Shakyamunison?
I have given you several personal testimonies that all confirm the Bible.

The standard is higher then that. It is much higher. You have made an extraordinary claim, and that requires an extraordinary proof. The bible is not extraordinary proof of anything, other then the fact it is a book.
anyways lets move on and focus on me. 😄
i remember in 2007 i was in germany on an airforce base staying in an officer suite hotel.
while their me and my friends were drinking and partying.
although i was unable to do many of my spiritual mental exercises there i decided to at least focus on my meditation.
well in my room i started mediating at around 11 o' clock for whatever reason time seem to shift around me.
i realized i was no longer in my sitting position but was in my bed lying down. i figured i had fallen asleep and moved to the bed and was probably too tired to realize it.
as i was about to sit up out of the bed i realize that the room and shadows in the room was off. i was getting goose bumps as i tried to focus my senses i started hearing labored breathing and a presence in my room and a sense of heavy gravity around and atop of my body.
i figured i was dreaming and was having a lucid dream and told my slef i am a grown man and dont fear anything. i said to the presence to show itself i know it is their and it does not scare me.
it replied it wasnt trying to scare me but simply wanted to talk to me and offer me knowledge that it sensed i seek while meditating
it said it could offer me the secrets of the universe and the mind and it could show it to me if i allowed it to merge with me and see it with how it see the world.
i grew suspicious of his offer and said no i dont need his help that i can acquire knowledge on my own and it responded it could make me a god. its voice sounded a little more agitated.
i responded that i am already a god and nor do i worship nor fear any god or devil of any faith.
it became angry and it said to let it in. i responded with a calm no.
then it everything in the room went calm and quiet like i had driven it off.
i then woke up blinked and looked at my room and realize i was still in bed and must have dreamed it all and was just possibly a nightmare.
as i tried to rise i realize i couldnt move and i felt some thing grip my legs and arms. i sighed... and simply calmly told myself this is my world my power and raised my hand and sad up.
i heard the voice tell me it had trick me and made me think i was in my room awake. it said it had the power that it controlled this world and it could teach me to do what it does here in the real world if i allowed it.
i responded that it was my world that i controlled it not him and it was just a parasite that it could not do what it promised or it would not need me nor could i keep wrestling control from it.
it howled and i felt my bed shake and the room quake. i simply stayed calm and showed no fear and told myself i control reality through my believe and actions. i calmly willed it the room to stop shaking. i closed my eyes as i focused and felt breath and a presence in front of my face. i calmly open my eyes expecting to see a hideous face as a scare tactic. sure enough when my eyes open i saw a dark grotesque demonic face. i smiled at it and asked it if that was suppose to scare me. he responded that it knows i fear it and that it will take my body that i cannot stop it that i have no faith and no god would answer prayers.
i looked at it and told him he is right. i have no faith as others see it nor do i worship any god nor idol. that he could not take me because i do not fear him that my will is to strong that not even "God" nor the devil could take that which is mine. my body nor soul.
it tried to enter me and i simply felt a cold dark feeling come over me a little fear and i focused i pictured a bright light in the darkness growing and pulsating pushing back the darkness the cold and overwhelm the darkness with warm and light.
it screamed in agony and left my body screaming how and why his questions wasnt even directed at me but at something else.
it asked why if i have no faith nor do i believe in him.... why?!
i looked at it and told him that the divine dwells in us all it has no name nor shape that it simply is that i am god and god is me that is why it cannot have my soul nor body b/c it is not mine to give...
their was more i ended up waking up in my bed at least 6 more times before i finally woke up muddering out the devil isnt real with the lights int suite flickering on and off.. and my room mate running toward my room asking me if i felt that. i asked what he said he was on the phone and felt something spooky in the room watching him and thought someone else was with us. and he came running to my room b/c he felt something might have happen to me.fear it all ended at exactly 3'0 clock am
About to go eat now talk to you all later.
Remember the Lord Jesus Christ loves all of you and died to give you eternal life.
If you want to have eternal life simply ask the Lord Jesus Christ to come into your heart and give you everlasting life.
Ask the Lord Jesus Christ to wash away your sins and to reveal to you that He is truly the Way, the Truth, and the Life just as the Bible states.
Confess with your mouth that Jesus Christ is Lord and that you believe that God raised Him from the dead and you will be saved.
But remember the Word of God--the holy Bible--and the Son of God--the Lord Jesus Christ--always agree. You cannot believe one without believing the Other.

Yes, communing with evil spirits is an abomination to God. Those who do this are called mediums.Mediums do not actually communicate with the dead. They commune with the familiar spirit of the dead. In other words, every person is assigned a familiar spirit by the enemy. That familiar spirit knows everything there is to know about you. It knows your strengths and weaknesses, your family history and ancestry, and whether you are born again or not. They disguise themselves as your loved ones and it is these spirits that the medium communicates with.
The devil and his minions are masters of deception.
[B] Leviticus 19:31
‘Give no regard to mediums and familiar spirits; do not seek after them, to be defiled by them: I am the LORD your God.Leviticus 20:6
‘And the person who turns to mediums and familiar spirits, to prostitute himself with them, I will set My face against that person and cut him off from his people.Leviticus 20:27
[/B]
‘A man or a woman who is a medium, or who has familiar spirits, shall surely be put to death; they shall stone them with stones. Their blood shall be upon them.’”
wow.
so i would suppose your prime-time evening television viewing experience is slim to nonexistent.
bummer.
JIA, you've been here for years. Why do you keep coming back? Surely there must be places where your words would have greater impact. Because the only people I've ever seen agree with you are the ones who already agree with you, and don't need persuaded.
I also think this is the first time since about '06 that I've addressed you directly. Please try to refrain from responding with scripture. Byt this point, half of me thinks you're just a sophisticated spambot that's programmed to search out buzzwords in posts and respond with semi-relevant scripture passages.

So people should be here only if others agree with them?
He is putting his energy in to talk about his beliefs. If other's don't agree they should ignore him and not respond. He isn't bashing anyone, so I do not see the problem.

Well, I know a couple of mediums. I'll bring the torches and the pitchforks, you bring the stones.
