Stages of demonic possession

Demonic possession is the term used to describe the control over a human being by Satan or one of his assigned advocates. There are a number of ways that a person can become exposed to a spiritual attack of this nature. Exposing themselves to things such as the ouija board, the occult and astral travelling are but a few. Demons can only thrive in darkness. A person must be a sinner or would have to expose themselves for evil spirits to enter. There are 3 stages of demonic possession.

1. Partial Influence:
This is when a person feels compelled to spend most of his or her free time communicating with a spirit through some means, usually a Ouija Board. Eventually the spirit influences the Medium in how to act, whom to communicate with and so forth. The persons behaviour grows noticeably peculiar, and he or she becomes increasingly isolated from family and friends in order to devote more time with the spirit.

2. Partial Possession:
This is the second stage of possession and is the partial control of a person's mind and speech by a spirit. Typically, the dreams and emotions of a person in this state are affected. He or she begins to hear the spirits voice during waking hours and while sleeping, and begins to fear that the spirits control over him or her cannot be stopped.

3. Total Possession:
This is the third and most serious stage of possession which requires exorcism. Persons unfortunate enough to reach this point are no longer able to function normally and are often misdiagnosed by doctors as suffering from mental disturbances. They often end up as patients in psychiatric wards or the victims of suicide.
