I have heard that to say, hear, or speak the name of a demon is dangerous because it brings them to you. I have also heard that exorcists use the name of the demon they are driving out, but is this only safe for them and not for the laity?
I’m not interested in summoning a demon, researching them, or anything else of the kind, but I watch a couple of tv shows that use the same name for their demons, and I suspect it is a real demon’s name.

Thanks,

To know a name is to open a door.

If you know someone’s name… it’s the beginning of being able to communicate.

It was a very big deal when God allowed us to know His name. It allowed us to invoke and call upon Him.

It is a very powerful tool when an exorcist knows the name of a demon because he gains deeper authority over him because he know has SPECIFIC connection to who he is exorcising.

It’s not advisible to speak to or communicate to a demon in ANY way…including mentioning its very name (because that’s a door opener). They only want our destruction and are smarter than us and are able to manipulate, perceive like no other because of their high angelic intelligence and since they’ve watchd God create the world and watched our human existence from the beginning…they have deep, deep knowledge of how we work.

Nonsense! Absolute claptrap and superstition.
The average Catholic, who works hard on a daily basis with his daily prayers and good works, who tries to stay in a state of grace has nothing to worry about.
Demonic possession is more a thing of Hollywood, TV, and adolescent minds, than it is of reality. It ranks with a belief in haunted houses.
How does anyone find out the true name of any demon? Where are they written, in Holy Writ?
As long as one does not try to pray to Satan, which is a sin unto itself, one has nothing to fear from demons. The Sign of The Cross and a Hail Mary are more than enough to keep any demon away. And Holy Water, freely available at any Catholic Church is the anti-demon Atomic Bomb!
 
Well, the Bible actually did mention the names of a number of demons, so I know of some just from those readings.

I think exorcists need to memorize the names of some of them if what it was correct things like what was depicted on “The Rite”. It probably depends on who you are and why you want to know that information.

However, most of the rest of us probably would be better to just steer clear, entirely!

That’s an ancient Hebrew and mesotpotamian belief. Our thoughts are what attracts things. If you are angry you are going to attract negative things. I myself would focus more on my thoughts and desires themselves and not so much the side effect of what is attracted. I don’t like to say my demons names not because I’m scared of them but I don’t want nightmares. And then I have to get up and say “oh not again”. 🙂

I think there exist real cases of possession. They were referred to in the Bible. However, there are some demons which seem to be quite strong, and it might take more than that to drive them out. Even the disciples had problems with some. So, there seem to be ones which can be quite resistant. There was one kind Our Lord said could only be driven out through prayer and fasting.

Ummm No

Wow, I am not sure what to say or start but as someone who has worked with the mentally ill I can assure you possession is very real. Not every Mental Illness is possession and a complete possession is very rare BUT it is very real and these poor people are often relegated to the sad depths of uncaring mental institutions and an endless regime of pills and treatments that do not help anything. However, the real effects of the evil-one are not limited to complete possessions, there are partial kinds as well as obsessions and afflictions.

They can mess with minds and torment you even with a full prayer life (think Padre Pio). This is not an enemy to sell short ever. While we can protect ourselves through prayer, church teaching etc. this stuff is dangerous. Carelessness can lead to bad bad things. One person I met came from a Catholic family but the kid dabbled in New Age(was with their friends when they used an Angel board essentially a ouiji board) and started to see things and hear voices. It was not until a very strong turn around in prayer life and a lot of deliverance prayers that these voices and shadows went away. Until then the poor child was diagnosed as a common Schizophrenic and subject to a barrage of medication.

I recommend reading Deborah Lipsky A Message of Hope, Confessions of an Ex-Satanist-How to Protect Yourself from Evil

Be very careful of television shows that use summoning rituals Terry Ann Modica addresses this in her book Overcoming the Power of the Occult

You are correct to be leery, but as long as you don’t use it you should be fine. But, seeing a ritual on TV can lead to bad stuff for you even if you do not notice immediately. Also names have power. Ever wonder why Padre Pio rarely ever referred to the evil-one by name in conversation?

i’ve watched/read some weird stuff in my life, stuff about Madame Blavatsky, black masses, books about pacts with Satan and magic spells, Aleister Crowley, the Satanic Bible, part of Hitler’s *Mein Kampf *,read a book by Huysmans dealing, inter alia, with satanism, loved both The Ninth Gate and Rosemary’s Baby (coincidentally both directed by the same guy), even on Youtube you can see Anton Lavey and his disciples chanting “Hail Satan!” during some sort of ceremony. The only truly demonic thing I have seen, however, is Ricardo Lopez’s self-shot video diary, especially on the very last day of his life, minutes before he put a gun in his mouth and blew his brains out. It is so demonic and downright scary that you almost feel an ominous presence around you moments after you’ve stopped watching. I imagine hell will be like that: scary, oppressive, lonely, full of despair. But saying Belial, Baphomet, Satan or whatever out loud does nothing as far as I can tell. Even if I say “Jesus” out loud, I see a long-haired guy sporting a beard with an off-white robe, wearing leather sandals. Nothing remotely mystical or ethereal.

You have pretty much nailed on the head why you cannot understand God in your other threads and posts. Seriously my friend, watch out this stuff is poison. The effects of what you have exposed yourself to is one reason why you suffer so much in your faith and life. I would pray a bunch of deliverance prayers if I were you. The stuff you describe is a pattern I have seen before of demonic meddling through thoughts as a result of exposure to this garbage. God Bless and protect you and your family.

By the way that eerie presence you felt is THEM. Pray, pray, pray. :signofcross:

Despair and tremendous resentment against God led me to have an interest in stuff like that. I am not the way I am as a result of my, shall we say, “dabbling” in the occult, I tried to find in said stuff some relief from the life, misery and despair God had eternally ordained for me in its tiniest detail. I wanted to escape, if only temporarily, God’s suffocating “love” and “goodness” as I felt stifled from such constant attention from someone who has shown, at every opportunity, how precious and dear I am to his fatherly heart. (smile) My being alive is a testament that God is not good with everyone, everywhere, all the time. Where’s the “abort game” button, God? If the eternal misery of a damned does not move our loving God, make no mistake about it, the broken heart and despair of a loser headed for satanland will not move him, either.

We the Catholic Church teach the faithful not to communicate with demons but encourage them to fight against all demons. What is important in the actual exorcism is the ritual. In my Diocese we don’t have the official ritual for exorcism. I casted out demons with the Charismatic movement using prayers already used by it’s faithful and good members as handed down from its founder; an MSC priest. This is now the ritual practiced for ‘exorcism’ in my Diocese.
If anyone want to join in this battle against satan and its demons, correct prayers are important but not confused prayers

In these cases like seeks like. Evil wishes to open up more evil in your life. I am not sure what opened the door so violently to begin with but you need to be careful. Remaining hidden is the first step in all of this. I cannot tell you how many afflicted people told me, various prayer groups, and priests “there is nothing wrong with me the Devil has no hold over me”…while at the same time hearing voices, seeing shadows, suffering religious aversions, all manner of psychological afflictions, life afflictions, job issues, family problems, and so on (most if not all of which eventually went away in prayer).

You have fallen pray to a deep hopelessness and you often mention that you do not mind joining the evil-one in your posts. Dabbling in the occult did not help. I have felt similar to this once and have worked with others who spoke very similar.

Try a few deliverance prayers or even pray a rosary once a day for a month. If one acknowledge the evil-one exists but offers up no fight they must know they are his easy prey. Try to remember the evil-one hates all of us and will attack us and our children. I deal with spiritual attacks against myself and family all the time (It is often pointed out anyone helping the afflicted will be attacked as well in revenge). Prayer and regular reception of the sacraments is our best defense.

I guess I take a middle of the road approach–I mean, only a few names of demons are even really known–the rest is Hollywood stuff. During Baptisms, the priest asks us to renounce Satan’s evil works, etc–so he mentions a demon specifically and I’ve never noticed that the front door blew off the church when he did it!

For all we know, there could be a demon somewhere named “George”. We don’t really know, now do we? So why fuss about it? If the show bothers you somehow–for whatever reason–maybe simply because it has demons in it–or it’s scary, or gross–or whatever, I’d follow my conscience and quit watching it. I have a feeling that for a demon to enter in, you have to somehow grant it access. This is why we are warned about fortune telling, ouija boards, spiritualists and so on. I’d stay away from those kinds of things period. A TV show shouldn’t be a problem–unless in your conscience you know it is–then follow your conscience.
 
Yes, it is. Even asking about them is dangerous. They go to people who show and interest in them at all. I advise you to not watch TV shows about them. Even movies like Ghost Rider must not be watched. I used to liker to watch “Charmed” because it had 3 pretty girls in it. But those girls are witches, and they are always fighting demons. But I quit that a long time ago.

If you keep doing this they will find you. But remember Satan masquerades as an angel of light. So they may not seem evil to you until it’s too late.

Just don’t do it. Read the Bible or books about Saints. I have found a lot of movies on You Tube about stories from the Bible. I never even knew many of these movies were ever made. Watch them. Last week I watched a movie About Jeremiah. I’m sure it wasn’t 100% accurate t the Bible, but it was good. Now I found a movie made about Ester. That’s next. It is possible to avoid TV shows about the evil.

There are a lot of excellent Christian shows, music, etc. available out there–I agree. And sometimes it boils down to “filth in–filth out” as my mom used to say. But I don’t think that most people have to get over-board paranoid about such things. I personally hate slasher movies and movies like “The Exorcist”–though I saw “The Exorcist” back when it was new and in the theaters. The effect it had on me–even back in the 70’s or whenever it came out-- was simply that it was disgusting with all the cursing, vomit spewing etc. When I came out of the movie theater, I remember thinking “Yuk” and wishing I hadn’t wasted my money on seeing it–maybe bought a new skirt or something instead! By today’s standards I’m sure it’s considered pretty light weight–so I can’t even imagine what’s out there today. One of my sons convinced me to watch the first Friday the 13th one Halloween and I hated it so much that I think it was the very last movie of that type I’ve ever gone to. Usually, I can read a title and know if it’s something I might possibly like or something that I just really don’t want to set through. But, that’s just me and how I work.

I agree with Geo17 at least in part-- in that what movies or shows you choose to watch says something about your life and choices in general. HOWEVER,if I really liked a show–thought it had a great plot, interesting characters, and felt truly entertained when it was over, I’d be comfortable watching it–even if a demon or someone supposedly possessed were part of its plot. But–and we all know that sometimes after we watch a show we feel one way and sometimes another–when the program is over, we get that feeling like we just wasted an evening or that we almost need to take a bath. Those second kind of movies or TV shows are disturbing–to say the least–and I’d eliminate such from my viewing in the future.

A perfect example is the movie “Ghost”–the one with Patrick Swayyzee who gets killed by his supposed best friend and comes back to help his wife and locate his murderer and that uses “Unchained Melody” by the Righteous Brothers as sort of its theme song? Did you ever see that one? If not, I’d highly recommend it! It has demons in it–all the bad guys end up getting carted away by them when they’re killed off–but it’s such a beautiful, amazing, and entertaining love story that I’ve never met a woman out there who didn’t love it! I certainly do–enough so that I bought the DVD of it! Even my husband, who usually would call such a thing a “chick flic”, has watched it with me 2 or 3 times. So, use some common sense, whomever started this thread. You don’t have to be paranoid and afraid of being somehow possessed at every turn of the corner–that’s kinda silly–but if whatever show it is that you are talking about bugs you enough to worry about on this thread, I bet that there’s way more wrong with it than a demon with a name! And we are only allotted a certain number of hours in our life–and even fewer hours for entertainment–so make those entertainment hours be truly entertaining to you and not just a bath with swine!! Time is precious–spend it well!
 
in all societies across human history, names have been held to have extreme importance. I wouldnt say you are going to be possessed by some violent malevolent entity because you know its name, but as some have stated above knowing a name is the beginning of a relationship.

that said, knowing a name can be a great source of power, and in many forms of exorcism and demonology, including that of Christians, exorcists will often try to get spirits to reveal their name.
 
I agree with Starrsmother for the most part. I’ve watched the movie Ghost many times and I don’t find it objectionable at all. Just bare in mind it’s pure fantasy.

I have 1 rule of thumb with movies. If the character of Satan in the movie is being played by an actor, I won’t watch it. In my mind that’s giving way too much honor and attention to the devil. It’s also a personal thing for me because I promised God to never watch anything with Satan in it. Now will I listen to a song that gives honor to the devil.

I’m not up on all today’s TV shows, but I do know there’s a show ironically called Angel and all it’s about is demons

I also know a 34 yr old man who liked the 2 movies about “Hell Boy”, and he took them seriously. One day he said that not everyone from hell is evil, just look at Hell Boy, he’s a good guy. He’s also totally fictional, but look at how a foolish young man was influenced by those movies. I used to like reading comic books as a kid (they were cheap back then) One character was Ghost Rider who only hurt bad people. So when the movie I came out I simply rented it. I was shocked that Satan was in it, and played by an actor. I didn’t even watch the sequel.

So a person has to use discretion with TV and movies. We have to always remember 1 of Satan’s favorite tricks is to convince the world he isn’t real. Another trick is he’s a good guy. And his #1 lie is we can be just like God, and he will tell us how. He must think how stupid these humans are. We’ve been falling for this lie since man exists. I tell you 1 reason we keep falling for it is because parents fail to teach their children about this. Some parents are atheists and don’t know themselves. Others are nominal Catholics who go through the motions, but don’t believe a word of it. Others want to leave teaching their children to the church. The church isn’t supposed to raise your kids.

I wasn’t blessed with a family. But if I had been I would have taught my children all this before kindergarten.

We all must be careful what info we feed our minds with, and our children. And please remember you parents, children learn from what you do, not just what you say. I’ve heard foolish fathers say to their children, “do what I say, not what I do”. Usually they do what you do. So if you watch shows about demons and devils, your children will too.

As I’ve said multiple times before, I don’t find or watch any movie that graphically portrays any demon—including Satan–if for no other reason than that usually they are, at least for the most part, graphically violent and gruesome and I just can’t stomach them. Infact, I suspect that Geo17 and I share much of the same taste in movies and TV.

However, if you happened to watch the TV series “The Bible”, Satan played and appeared in something like 3 episodes of the much extolled series, which was on TV awhile back. Now just as curiosity, would you watch something like that–or is it off base too—since the character of Satan was in it? By the way, whomever played Satan in it was a white guy–but with all the makeup, he really DID look exactly like Obama–a fact that was all over the news for weeks after! LOL!) Now I’m not going to say you’re wrong if that show too would fall under your “no Satan” rule–I’m just being nosy!👍

That media storm was just ridiculous. He did look very similar though
 
Yes indeed demonic names are dangerous.

St. Isidore of Seville describes the demons, referring to the thought of St. Augustine:
Code:
"Demons are unclean spirits, thin, wandering soul subject to passions, rational intellect, planes in the body, for time eternal, enemies of humanity, eager to harm, puffed up with pride, cunning in deceit, always new deception. They stir the senses, upset feelings, disturb the life, disturb sleep, cause disease, cow's minds, tormenting the members, direct the fate (the responses of divination), simulate oracles with deceit, arouse the passion of 'love, infuse the ardor sensual, hiding in sacred images; invoked are made present, are manifested in verosomiglianti, take on a different appearance, sometimes turn into angelic forms. They fell for pride from the seat celestial, who live now in the air "(See Isidorus, differentiae, II, 28, 93: PL 83, 83).
There is a countless number of demons with different functions and belonging to different hierarchies: ““We are legion”” cry out demons in Jesus in the region of the Gadarenes (cf. Mk 5:9).

There is a hierarchical classification uniform, but that of the pseudo-Dionysius the Areopagite, and St. Gregory the Pope, remain the reference. There would be nine choirs of angels classified into three categories, starting from the top grade, would be so ordered:
Code:
Seraphim, Cherubim, Thrones;
Dominions or principalities or authorities (or powers);
Virtues, Archangels, Angels.
No doubt exists between the demons the same hierarchy we find among the good angels, but do not know exactly what it consists. It is believed that demons as Lucifer and Asmodeus belonged to the ranks of the Seraphim and as such, though fallen, still retain a great power.
Every demon, albeit voted to evil in a generic sense, has a particular field of action that others do not possess.

Many magicians and sorcerers, plus some exorcists, have drawn on their books long lists of names of demons whose value is to be considered, however, doubt. Going beyond the data offered by Sacred Scripture means in fact enter the world of literature and imagination, abandoning the safe ground of the Word of God theology can say many things about demons, but always in a general way, working on some concepts.
The names found in the Bible are:
Code:
Satan in the Old Testament is also called "Satan";
Devil: The Bible uses this word in the singular and always to refer to the strongest of all demons. We find also called the “accuser”, “Enemy”, “Tempter”, “Murderess primitive,” “Father of lies”, “Prince of this world”, “Snake”;

Beelzebub: term that appears in “2 Kings 1.2” and that is usually used as a synonym for “Devil”;

Lilith appears in “Is 34.14”;

Asmodeus: Appears in “Tb 3.8; 3.17” and in Persian means “spirit of wrath”;
Seirim: Appears in “Is 13,21; Lv 17.7; Bar 4.35” and comes from the Hebrew meaning “hairy” or “male goat”;

Devil: that word comes from the greek and means “genius”;

Belial or Beliar: from the root “Baal” means “lord.” Appears in “2 Cor 6.15”;

Apollyon: Appears in “Rev 9.11”. His name in Hebrew is “Abaddon” which means “destruction” and “destruction”;

(Zebulon is also in the Bible)

Lucifer: extra-Biblical name meaning “morning star.” Although often lumped together with Satan, it seems that another demon, the second in importance in the scale demon after Satan himself. The presence of both demons attested in several cases of possession led to this thesis Father Amorth and other exorcists.

Besides the obvious influence operated in the spiritual, the demons can sometimes be the cause of mental illness and physical and hide behind paralysis or physical impediments of various kinds. Those series the fact we can find described in the Gospels.
It 'important not to give too much weight to the names of demons, but only to those of Jesus and Mary who have the power to drive them all. During the exorcisms, in fact, evil spirits never say these two names but only alternative expressions (that woman there, the lady, the boss, the boss, etc…), Because even the simplest pronunciation causes them excruciating pain and torment.

If you suffer from disorders of suspected demonic origin, you can pray to God to free us from the spirit definitely responsible and disorders related to it. E 'can also be ordered with authority to that spirit away forever, claiming lordship of Jesus Christ on their person (eg the name of Jesus Christ and the power of His Holy Blood I command you spirit - foresight, medianicità, hatred, anger, sex, envy, etc. - to get away from me immediately and never to return, go to the foot of the Cross and Christ the Lord will assign you to the destination).

However, we must be careful not to mistake for demonic every daily problem or impediment that causes difficulties, because generally there are specific natural causes. In this context it is important not to fall victim to the discernment of suggestion, of fixation and fanaticism.

More subsidies for the liberation from the influence of evil spirits, are the prayer of liberation carried out by a group of prayer and exorcism proper by a priest authorized by the bishop (see section specification).
