| Â | Demon |
 | | Demons in the Hebrew Bible are usually not the same as "demons" as commonly understood today by Christians. | | | Demons are found in many religions, and many cultures have developed a rich mythology of demons. | | | According to Christian demonology demons will be eternally punished and never reconciled with God, as it is mentioned in the Bible. |

| Â | Encyclopedia: Demons and symbols |
| | Although demons, being spiritual beings, do not need food, according to Christian demonology demons, and especially the Devil hate salt, and thus no food is served with salt during the Sabbaths. | | | Christian demonology has associated demons and symbols, attributing a variety of them to these entities. | | | If this last description includes five Hebrew letters inside the circle it is not a diabolical symbol, because those letters act as a protection against the demon. |

| Â | Number of demons - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Alfonso de Spina calculated that about one third of them were demons, and in 1467 he asserted that the number of demons was 133,316,666 demons. | | | Gregory of Nyssa, in the 4th century, supported the idea that demons procreated with other demons and with women, believing in the existence of male and female demons. | | | Other scholars supported the idea that the number of demons was unique and they could not procreate. |

| | The only thing the superstitious people knew to do to protect themselves on such an occasion was to masquerade as one of the demonic hoard, and hopefully blend in unnoticed among them. | | | Wearing masks and other disguises and blackening the face with soot were originally ways of hiding oneself from the spirits of the dead who might be roaming around. | | | The Celts did not have demons and devils in their belief system. |

| | A mountain is also used to symbolize the power of a demon over man as Jesus showed, Matthew 17:18-20. | | | Because God has allowed demons to work miracles, they will surely say these words to Jesus, Matthew 25:31-46. | | | Giving life to the "image" is procuring the "living" sons of God for possession as fast as they are born into this world. |

| | Xian demonology is even more complex; not surprising, considering that as the church evolved and splintered from Nazorene to Pauline, Semitic, Heretic, Catholic, Orthodox, Protestant and other schisms, each faction grew their own demons -- and different demonologists drew up different lists of demons and their attributes [and continue to do so, even now]. | | | Anyway, according to my sources, the idea of a single devil is a Xian notion, and pre-Diaspora Jewish tradition had no devil(s) or major demons. |

| | The gods, goddesses and demons, the motifs, symbols and religious beliefs of the several thousand years of Mesopotamian civilisation are bewilderingly complex to the modern reader who stands on the threshold of that world. | | | The identification of specific named gods and demons in Mesopotamian art naturally has implications for our appreciations of the mythological narratives themselves. | | | The seals are often inscribed with writing (usually also in reverse) which may give the names of particular deities (as part of a person's name, as the name of the seal owner's personal god or within a prayer of incantation). |

| | Little attention is given to what we can learn from Jesus about dealing with demons. | | | Here are some lessons we can learn if we assume the reality of demons as created, personal spirit beings, and see the Gospels as containing lessons on discipleship from Jesus: | | | Evangelicals typically affirm the reality of demons but often see the function of the story as magnifying the authority of Jesus. |

| | Also, any symbols such as, what is worn around the neck, wrist (under a guise at times) as trinkets, definitely meaning what it shows, reveals to the person wearing the symbol of the symbols representation. | | | Such unscriptural commanding under the new covenant is prompted by demons arrayed against the gospel and the liberty it provides regarding food (Genesis 9:1-7; Romans 14:1-6). | | | The rebuke concerns the heathen who superstitiously seek guidance by meteors, planets, signs of the zodiac and all the magic and witchcraft and traffic with demons in the name of astrology, etc., which are condemned by Scripture. |

| | Not one of the signs of the zodiac uses a triangle as its symbol. | | | New Agers have, in fact, adopted the unicorn as one of their major symbols, viewing it as 'the spark of divine light in the darkness of matter and evil', and as a symbol of the great world leader whom they expect to bring peace on earth in the New Age. | | | The unicorn was often likened by the early church as a symbol of Christ, who raised up a horn of salvation for mankind and dwelt in the womb of the Virgin Mary. |

| | {3} In certain contexts - if, for example, he has horns or is sexually involved with naked women - the devil may be a sexual symbol. | | | If sexuality is repressed in such a guise in a woman's dream, it is possibly because she has a fear of sexual relations. | | | Self-knowledge - knowing what we are carrying around with us in our unconscious - is the only sure defence against what in ancient times was called demonic possession, which in psychological terms means the conscious ego being taken over by unconscious forces {obsessive fear or anger, or whatever}. |
