Christ strictly regulates all demonic activity

β€œThat means that the demons even know that they can't do anything without Christ's permission. So, in the spiritual warfare landscape, we know, and this is, as an exorcist, it actually brings me a lot of confidence, because I don't have to worry... I know Christ is still controlling and metering how much and what he can and cannot do.”

β€” Father Chad Ripperger

Exorcism is central to the Gospels' mission

β€œ23% of the Gospels are actually about Christ dealing with demons. So this is why when people, you know, you're a Christian... a lot of the Christians will just say, well, you know, I believe in God, but I don't necessarily believe in the devil. And you're like, well, do you believe in scripture? Well, yeah. Well, then how can you not believe that this is one of the primary missions of Christ was to save us from them ultimately?”

β€” Father Chad Ripperger

Psychology led to declining belief in demons

β€œBasically it had to do with the advent of psychology. So when psychology came on board, it became in vogue, especially in the 50s and in the 60s, to just think that all these people's problems were just purely psychological. I mean, there are psychological issues that very much look like that. But the fact is, is that, so they just started chalking it up.”

Demons are praeternatural rather than supernatural beings

β€œSo supernatural is those things which are above anything that is created, and that pertains to God. Whereas praetor natural comes from the Latin word praetor and natura, which means aside from nature. So that would be things that are above what we experience as human beings in this world. But it's not supernatural, because it's not God.”

β€” Father Chad Ripperger

Demons possess infused rather than learned knowledge

β€œAll their knowledge was infused. So, they know exactly what the essence and nature of every created thing that exists. And this is actually a diagnostic that you can use in session... if you ask them a technical, theological or philosophical question, if it's a human being, you can see they have to think about it, and then they'll kind of reason their way through it. That's not how demons work. They'll immediately give you the answer, just immediate.”
