   The Bible never gives a single, blunt sentence that   
   says “demons don’t want people to believe in Jesus.”   
   I don't care if you believe in Jesus. I just think   
   it's delusional. To my thinking a demon is a person   
   that won't go after asking them to leave.

   Demons don't give up that easily.
