Evidence for God from Science

They only have restrained power provided by God who puts constraints and uses it for His purposes. WHAT people shriek - "are you tellin' me that it is GOD who gave evil its power? Of course! God knew before He created angels that He would provide Satan and his evil followers with power that He would limit and channel - God uses evil as a tool - NOT for the purposes those evil intend, but for the far greater and eternal good that God foreknows He's bringing about.

Joseph said of the terrible evil of his brothers: "As for you, you meant evil against me, but God meant it for good, to bring it about that many people should be kept alive, as they are today." (Genesis 50:20)

"This Jesus, delivered up according to the definite plan and foreknowledge of God, you crucified and killed by the hands of lawless men. (Acts 2:23)

God will only allow evil to flourish for a specific period, until God's purposes of saving all that are so willing has been accomplished.

Number two, what Biblical evidence do have that an inanimate object can be possessed of evil? This is an occultist view!

And last, why would it take a priest to do this? You've been watching too many exorcist-influenced movies, as well as apparently bought into some major Catholic Church mumbo-jumbo!

Exactly! Which is why I get angry over people profusely apologizing and giving so much credit to this voodoo spirit, when really they should be looking to GOD. They don't realize it, but it's powering the evil. Of course, some people don't report being affected and occasionally the doll is taken out for inspection etc.
I don't like the idea of going there to test the spirit or to mock it etc, but ultimately yes it's the good GOD that allows stuff. So that makes it more comforting.

But I see God using it as a wake up call to get me to go to God and to the bible. It works.

Then why doesn't it work with every other person who experienced it. Seems like common sense to me. You now have indisputable proof of life beyond death and in most cases proof or an inkling od forces of darkness. Once you have that proof you know the force of evil exists therefore the force of good exists. At that point it becomes a fork in the road.

Had a friend who did wee-gee when he was a teen, had something bad happen had direct contact with something "bad", then insisted God doesn't exist and he is an atheist. Makes sense right?
