Question for Father Martins regarding abortion
Hello Exorcist Files, I am a huge fan of the podcast and so grateful for everything y'all are doing and all the stories you are sharing. Everything is so informative and helpful. You guys are the best!! I just signed up for the Vault membership and I have a question for Father Martins that he can hopefully answer on his podcast! My question is- have you ever had any cases that are related to abortion? I work at a pro-life ministry and my co-workers and I often talk about the spiritual warfare involved in what we do and in the lives of the clients we see. Have you ever had a case having to do with abortion? If so, what happened? Also, what are your thoughts on abortion and how the enemy uses it in the lives of individuals as well as the effect it has on our nation as a whole? Does it give the demonic "kingdom" some kind of power? And lastly, for those of us working in this field, should we expect demonic attacks that would try to thwart us from helping women choose life for their pregnancies? Please share any other thoughts and experiences you have related to this topic. Thank you so much!! -Annie
How does the church view mediums?
In a previous episode, a former high priestess of the occult stated that nobody is born with “natural” gifts. There has been a popular movement in Hollywood with celebrity mediums. These mediums claim that their “gifts” started appearing in early childhood, for example ghosts would appear to them with messages. These mediums seem to be well intentioned by helping families find closure with their loved ones that have passed. What is the church’s opinion on people who claim to have been born with these gifts? Should they ignore communication from the hidden realm? Or are these gifts, in fact, not natural. Was there a pact made somewhere in order to receive this knowledge and abilities?
Intersession of Angels and their assistance
I’ve always had, and especially recently, have had a deep love for the holy Angels and in particular for me Saint Raphael, as I work as a paramedic in and around Philly and have sought his assistance to guide my mind and hand in my line of work and have felt his guidance and help. I’ve always held a great reverence and appreciation for them as I feel their immense power in a way can be overlooked when people get fixated on focusing on discussing the demonic. I was a wonder in when if I ver you’ve personally asked for the intercession of the archangels during an exorcism, if there was a reaction from the demon, if anything at all occurred when you asked this and for my own curiosity particularly if there were any cases where Raphael specifically was of great spiritual assistance in the persons liberation a deliverance or healing, or if the demon held a great level of fear or hatred for him.
