You know, I put a post out earlier about demons, and let me be clear — I’m not somebody pretending demons aren’t real. I used to experience them.
When I began my 77-day fast, within the first two weeks I had a full-on encounter. A dark entity came into my room — it looked like a monster, a demon — and the moment I said the name of Jesus, it vanished. I’m not talking about imagination. It felt real in every sense.
But here’s what’s wild…
What I experienced in the closet from October 3rd to the 10th last year was the exact same pattern described in Revelation — but on the inside.
Everything I used to fight from the outside in…
All the torment
All the fear
All the “demons” I thought were chasing me
…they rose up, came into the light, and were purified.
I wasn’t casting something out anymore — it was being alchemized.
This is what Revelation meant when it said everything gets thrown into the lake of fire — not destroyed, purified. Even hell gets thrown in. So if hell gets thrown into the fire, what does that tell you? Hell isn’t eternal — the belief in hell is what’s killing people.
But modern Christianity? It resists purification. It calls purification “deception.” It calls awakening “New Age.” It calls transformation “false teaching.” All while clinging to the very elementary principles Hebrews says we’re supposed to move on from.
It makes no sense.
Christians will guard the elementary doctrines like prison bars and then call you deceived for going beyond them — when the Scripture literally says:
“Let us go on to perfection.”
“Move beyond the elementary principles.”
But because a person once cast out a demon, or because someone once said “the name of Jesus” and their fear went away, they now build a whole theology around that single experience…
…instead of allowing the Spirit to finish the work on the inside.
Here’s the truth nobody wants to touch:
Most “deliverance ministry” is just managing symptoms of the unpurified old nature.
People fight demons because they resist fire.
They resist stillness.
They resist union.
They resist letting the Spirit show them that the battle is inside, not outside.
You cannot externally cast out what you refuse internally to face.
And when Jesus said:
“This kind only comes out by prayer and fasting,”
He wasn’t telling you how to get more power to cast something out of someone else.
He was telling you how to purify the false self.
The Body will naturally purge what does not belong when you stop feeding the lower nature.
But the church trained us to guard our delusions instead of letting the Spirit burn them away.
They told you a demon was chasing you.
They told you you needed deliverance every week.
They told you hell was real and waiting for you.
They told you fear was wisdom.
But fear is the absence of love — and perfect love casts out fear, not demons.
So… what are people really fighting?
Their own unrenewed mind.
Their own inner darkness.
Their own unconscious trauma.
Their own separation-consciousness.
When Revelation says “the dragon,” “the beast,” “the false prophet,” and finally “death and hell” are thrown into the lake of fire…
…it is revealing the inner journey every son and daughter takes when they finally stop resisting purification.
And here’s the beautiful truth:
The lake of fire is not punishment.
It is love hot enough to heal you.
Not destroy you.
Heal you.
So the question isn’t:
“Do demons exist?”
The question is:
Why do people resist the fire that would heal them?
Because if truth sets you free…
then a belief in hell — which keeps you terrified, divided, and waiting for later — will always make the heart sick.
And the Spirit is calling us out of that sickness
into a love that restores everything we thought we had to fight.

It is the doorway home.”
