This page is a compilation
of words that are used in the New Age Movement, especially in occult
healing. If you see these terms
used in a positive way on an allegedly
Christian websites or Christian businesses, beware. The Bible warns us to not give
place to the devil because place can indeed be given:
"Neither give
place to the devil." Ephesians 4:27
Subtle energy is from
that "old serpent, called the Devil" who is subtle:
Now the serpent was more
subtil than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made.
And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of
every tree of the garden? (Genesis 3:1)
Demon Does not Mean Devil in the Eyes of
Occultists
Modern Bible versions as well as New Agers/occultists use
the word, demon rather than devil. (I am working to get out of the habit
of using the word, demon as a synonym for devil.)
"Demon" is not a synonym for devil. Those involved in paganism worship
demons and use them to carry out specific assignments. Witches and
satanists have familiar spirits (guiding spirits) which they refer to as
demons and they definitely regard them as something that is good. The
word, "demon" does not have the same meaning as devil:
demon,
supernatural being, generally malevolent in character. In general,
the more civilized pagan societies came to consider demons as
powerful, supernatural beings who lacked the dignity of gods and
who, depending on the circumstance, might be either benevolent or
malevolent in their dealings with men."
http://encyclopedia2.thefreedictionary.com/Demon
A witch regards a demon as being
either good or wicked, depending on which demon they are dealing
with.

modern Webster's Dictionary give the following definitions for
