Sorry, I had to read this post about five times to understand what you were trying to say.  Run-on sentences are sometimes hard to read.  I have never seen a ghost, but my son-in-law and his mother swear they have.

I'd like to apologize for my post.  I was looking through posts tonight and found some of yours.  I realized you are at a very difficult time.  I'm sorry to be critical.  This will, I hope, teach me a lesson on being that way.  I pray for your situation and for your grandchildren.

I have never seen a ghost but I do believe that things like that do exist.

Jesus acknowledged that Satan and evil spirits exist.The bible is also clear that at death man doesnt exist...his thoughts cease and he eventually goes back to dust.

Staring at blurs and blotches on a photo is not even close to being enough to say ghosts exist. If the pics are taken in the same area, you might want to just check the lighting there.

I use to believe in ghosts but not anymore because that type of thing can start to drive you nuts. The mind is
a funny thing and it can play tricks on you.

I'm a believer in once you leave this earth there are only 2 places for our souls to go.  Heaven or Hell.  Ghosts - never seen one so I can't believe in something I've never seen.  I'm very black and white that way.  My husband keeps telling me there is a black shadow in the bathroom...I think he's referring to the black shower curtain because other than my own shadow - I see nutin'

I believe without a doubt that when people see 'ghosts' they are really seeing a demonic presence.  The spiritual realm is absolutely real, the good and the bad.  Only belief in Jesus Christ and trusting in Him will give you protection from that!
Title: Re: Haunted or not!
Post by: jmc1070 on December 25, 2013, 05:22:18 pm
I believe there are ghosts. I have seen and heard some pretty freaky stuff. I tend to be "sensitive" to that kind of stuff. I can sometimes walk into a room knowing nothing before hand and feel presences and sometimes bad events.  Makes me very careful and mindful of what I am feeling all the time.

Post by: msmoneybags48 on December 25, 2013, 07:48:01 pm
I don't know about you, but when I was growing up, there were times that ghosts, spirits or apparitions frequented the house we lived in.  I was told that if you see a ghost, tell them to go to the light because they are trying to find that light.  I wouldn't know, because I freaked out every time I saw one.  Interesting subject matter to bring up, especially today. :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Post by: hitch0403 on December 26, 2013, 02:01:04 pm
The bible is clear when a person dies his spirit goes back to the ground he was made out of.In other words non-existence.

On the other hand the bible tells us there is a spirit realm.Before God destroyed the earth with the flood many angelic spirits materialized human bodies and had sex with the good looking woman on the earth.It created an off-spring called the nephilim.The earth became so evil and bad God destroyed it and just Noah and his family survived.This account can be read in Genesis.The spirits gave up there human bodies and went back to the spirit realm.They are responsible to this day for the badness this earth still has with its demonic influence.It isn't some long lost dead uncles voice you hear.These spirits reak havoc with this world and using oujia boards etc put you in harms way with them.

Call out to Jehovah if you feel you are threatened.

Title: Re: Haunted or not!
Post by: teenangel on December 30, 2013, 08:49:55 am
I do believe that there are ghost because of what I have seen when I was a little girl. One of my sisters were telling me about this house that they were living in before I was born and how haunted it was but I didn't believe her. Then when I a  little girl me and my family moved to this really old house in mastic I didn't see anything the first few nights we were there. but that changed when I got up in the middle of the night, I walked out of my room and in the hall way was a figure standing there I went back in the room and came back out two seconds later and it was gone. I check the whole house out and it was gone. My whole family was a sleep at the time and being a child it freaked me out a little. Just recently I had another encounter at my sisters previous house and this was after my farther died my sister wasn't home and I was there alone when saw this dark figure with a flowing dress go in my sisters bathroom I got up and check it out and there was no one there. So this is why I believe in ghost.

yes i had encounters when younger but i am really afraid to trust what i saw most of it good but some not so

Post by: patti4me on December 30, 2013, 02:40:51 pm
I've always tried my best not to believe in ghosts but I've had some experiences at my mom & dad's old house that scared me to death!  Even my husband had some experiences in that house and he definitely did not believe in that sort of thing.  My mom & dad said the house was not haunted but they could never explain all the stuff that happened there; lamps coming on, thermostats moving from one extreme to the other, cabinet doors opening and closing loudly, pots and pans rattling, water coming on and seeing the handle turn by itself to go off, hairbrushes flying thru the air, bright light floating down the hallway and many other occurances.  A lot of these things happened after my sister bought the house from mom and dad but some of what I experienced was before she bought it.  SPOOKY!!!

i believe that there are things that cant be explained and that some time you can see things in photos that you couldnt originally see with your naked eye.

Yes, I believe in ghosts or other beings.  I've definitely had some strange occurances all around the death of loved ones.  I do believe in an afterlife. ::)

I personally have not seen a ghost or spirit of any kind, but I have many friends who have told me that they have. Based on their descriptions and the manner in which they told me, I do believe them.

it is a hard thing to wrap my head around it but im also not blind and i feel things like someone standing behind me ,seeing something out the corner of my eye things like this

Post by: hitch0403 on January 15, 2014, 04:14:17 pm
Not trying to beat a dead horse but consider.....

The fascination today with spiritism and the occult

Jesus acknowledged satan & his hordes do exist and bible says world is lying in the power of evil one

Right before flood angels materialized and had sex with woman creating wicked Nephillim

Satan and his hordes are ousted from heaven in Revelation down to earth and a woe begins

Ya gotta be blind NOT to see this.

Genesis 6 :4 explains the angels having sex with earths woman and creating Nephilim.Very wicked giants.Eventually God brought the flood to wipe out a wicked society and Noah and his family only survived listening to God and building an ark

Post by: king4cash on January 19, 2014, 09:18:29 pm
I do not believe in them as they are portrayed in pop-culture such as in movies or cartoons. I am a Bible-believing Christian and from what I read in the Bible, there are is no such thing as human spirits being left on earth. There is only one of two destinies for the souls of humans (heaven or hell) without exception.
Title: Re: Haunted or not!
Post by: hitch0403 on January 19, 2014, 10:23:27 pm
King...try reading bible NOT stoned on weed!!!Heres a start!!!

7 In Noah’s day, a number of angels left their “proper dwelling place” and materialized fleshly bodies in order to pursue selfish pleasure on earth. (Jude 6; Gen. 6:1-4) Jehovah cast those rebels into dense darkness, and they thus joined Satan in becoming “wicked spirit forces” and vicious foes of God’s servants.—Eph. 6:11-13; 2 Pet. 2:4.

Hensley...Christendom claims to teach bible....but doesnt....I was brought up a catholic and when i was younger the mass was said in Latin....i had no idea what they were speaking about.....

It hasnt changed either im sure.....no matter what language its in

i suppose i remember when i was small i remember older church members speaking in tongues it used to scare the heck out of me

Post by: hitch0403 on January 23, 2014, 07:06:02 pm
You walk into a church and see all these statues etc.God made clear NOT to bow down to these.They are idols that are DEAD!!And yet many use them for worship.ANOTHER NO NO!!!

Great scripture in Isaiah how a man gets a piece of wood...keeps warm by it...cooks with it.....then carves an image and bows down to it.

God doesnt approve of us doing that or using good luck charms <crosses as jewelery>.

True worship is with Truth and spirit and having love among yourselfs and observing HIS laws!Which can be found in his word....bible.
Title: Re: Haunted or not!
Post by: hitch0403 on January 23, 2014, 07:10:09 pm
Again God doesnt want to be compared to a piece of wood or concrete.HE made the universe with all the stars etc...can you imagine how HE must look?

He told Moses,No man can see me and live.

Title: Re: Haunted or not!
Post by: hitch0403 on January 27, 2014, 09:11:00 pm
Well Hensley i have said this more than once here.NOT all religeons lead to God and the worship HE expects from us.

Good example is in Jesus day,the Pharsees thought they were worshiping God....Jesus told them the devil was their father.Also Jesus said about many...they would come to him and say,"Lord we expelled demons and did all the right things in your name etc.....Jesus told them to take a hike..."you teach mens doctrines"

Christendom is the same today.The bible refers to Christendom as Babylon the Great in Revelation.In Biblical times Babylon was a place where much of false worship took place starting with Nimrod.Its symbolic to day for christendom because of their false teachings.Jehovah God detests it.The Israelites were Gods chosen people in OT and God punished them when they strayed away from Him.

No, but that doesn't mean they don't exist. I've had weird things happen around my house that I can't explain, but that doesn't necessarily mean they were caused by ghosts.

Post by: hitch0403 on February 23, 2014, 05:03:43 pm
Hey King.....i am curious....you quote bible verse but then say ghosts/spirits are figments?

Are you aware Jesus acknowledged satans existence with his hordes?

What are they?

Or do you choose to support just SOME of the bible?

Now ghosts meaning a dead human.....yes that doesnt exist.Bible says at death we go back to dust...non-existence.But spirit realm is quite real.The influence of it in this world is hard to ignore.Rebellious angels.

When we first built this house and moved in, for over two months I would see a black shadow walk from the kitchen to the hallway near the other end of the house.

Hubby's mother died in 1981 but the first two weeks in the house, it had the scent of Patchoulli, which his mother used all the time in her place. Told hubby she was visiting to check the place out.

Christmas Eve is the time the whole faimly gets together in the garage and that same year, we were talking about the past and started telling stories of hubby's mother. All of a sudden the lights went out! No one was near the light switch. We were all in the center of the garage. I got up from my chair and with my lighter found the way to the light switch. It was in the 'off' position. Told everyone we had to stop talking about her because she didn't like what we were saying.

When I was young, my mom would tell me when someone in our family died, there would be 3 knocks on the door, but if I heard that, not to open the door. Yep. She was right. One night I heard the 3 knocks, too, and next day found out her uncle died. Creepy.

Jesus said when you know the truth it sets you free from all superstitions etc.

If you support bible you know the condition of the dead is non-existence.Also that there is a spirit realm where much evil lurks on this earth.

These evil spirits have much to do in posing as dead relatives etc.Gods word was written to guide mankind.Its a shame christendom claims to teach it but doesnt.Then there are just those that have their own views etc or are atheists.

I guess they all they cant be right eh?Maybe its time to those that seek truth to use discenment here.

Post by: colbtrist on February 26, 2014, 04:32:02 pm
I have never seen a ghost, so no I guess I don't really believe in them. I do think that when you leave this earth you are either in Heaven or Hell. Now what I'm not sure about is if God allows people to come back and look around, but I really don't think so. I don't know. I just have never seen a ghost.  ::)
