THE CATHOLIC CHURCH IS A PARAMILITARY STRUCTURE

QUESTION? / COMMENT!

We think we're dealing with a spiritual component way bigger than ourselves, and we know Jesse has a lot of experience in this area. Can you please help?

Pass this on to those concerned about this individual. 

The Catholic Church is a paramilitary structure, that is the way God set it up. Demons respond to the authority of natural law and divine positive law. If someone in your family is diabolically afflicted, you have to go through the proper channels (that’s the way everything in life functions). When you call the Police, you get a young Patrol Officer to respond, not the Chief of Police. Most people will never meet the Chief of Police in their city. 

1st step, is this person an adult? If he/she is an adult, have him petition the Parish Priest. This is why it is important for every Catholic to be part of a Parish and have a relationship with the Pastor. The Pastor operates as a General Practitioner. The Pastor should do spiritual direction, counseling, the sacraments and offer minor prayers of exorcism. If the situation is more mental illness than the Pastor will recommend a Catholic therapist, counselor, psychologist or psychiatrist. The person has to pursue all of this himself. You can’t do it for them. Here is an example of what I mean.

You can't work out for him in a gym and have him receive the benefits, you can't diet for him and have him receive the benefits. If he is diabolically afflicted he/she must petition for help himself/herself from the Parish Priest. Demons afflict people that don't know their faith and choose to live in mortal sin. 

2 question - where is the father? His father has power and authority to bless him and to pray liberation/deliverance prayers over his son/daughter if they live under his roof and drive out the demon. He will have to do this night after night and it may take a long time but the demon will eventually yield to his authority. Hopefully the husband/father is in a state of grace and a practicing Catholic, this will make his prayers that much more powerful (cf. James 5:16).

3 – If your Pastor determines it is something above his ability to deal with then he will contact the diocesan exorcist. It is at this level that the diocesan exorcist.

The Pastor has spiritual authority over him/her and the demon will yield to his prayers.
