Question: The post was actually (DEMONIC MOVIE) by GD on May 26, 2004 in the spiritual warfare index. Thank you and may God bless you at Mass. Amen
Question Answered by Bro. Ignatius Mary, OLSM+ Dear Susie: The quote in question is: Concerning the fear that welled up when seeing the scenes of demons, it is good that this was experienced; it is a natural human reaction if witnessing a demonic entity like that. We need to have a healthy fear, that is a healthy respect, for this powerful entity. It reminds us that our strength comes from God and without God we are fotter for the devil. Your comment to this was: ...how could there be any "healthy" respect for the devil and how do these two statements even fit together. "Healthy respect" does not mean "positive regard", it means that we need to have a profound awareness of and pay close attention to how dangerous Satan is in the same way need to pay close attention and closely observe ("have healthy respect for") a rattlesnake in our path in order to avoid getting bitten.

Dear Susie:

The quote in question is:

Concerning the fear that welled up when seeing the scenes of demons, it is good that this was experienced; it is a natural human reaction if witnessing a demonic entity like that. We need to have a healthy fear, that is a healthy respect, for this powerful entity. It reminds us that our strength comes from God and without God we are fotter for the devil.

"Healthy respect" does not mean "positive regard", it means that we need to have a profound awareness of and pay close attention to how dangerous Satan is in the same way need to pay close attention and closely observe ("have healthy respect for") a rattlesnake in our path in order to avoid getting bitten.

God Bless,
