Believers know that the world will inevitably come to an end: the Antichrist will reign, but the Lord will triumph anyway, and this does not depend on people. God did not define such a future. This is a consequence of the fall of man. And if it weren’t for original sin, man would be “doomed” to a happy divine life.
The relationship between God and man
Living on Earth, we often masterfulness, trying to get beyond the boundaries of what is permitted. So that we ourselves do not harm ourselves, God is forced to limit us. He does all this without violating our free will, and the last word always remains with the person. God does not desire our suffering. They are simply necessary for the purification of the soul. Due to our sinfulness, such a tool is found by man himself, and not God sends them.
Often people fearlessly "hang" slander on the Creator, claiming that it is his punishment, and do not pay attention to their spiritual state, not even suspecting that they are the source of troubles. The Lord, as a loving father, applies educational measures so that when we suffer, we can change and understand the spiritual laws.
How do demons come under power
People have become subject to demons because of their lifestyle. God, seeing our wrongness, allows himself to be estranged from Him in the hope that once having been burned, we will again return to the true path. It turns out that man himself goes towards his misfortunes, and then blames the Creator for this.
All of us, to one degree or another, are subject to demonic influence. Demons act well after having studied us, because they have been familiar with man since his creation. Their experience is constantly growing. When approaching it, the demon first arouses passionate desires in a person, focuses attention on some vices, and then pushes him to sin. This is done quietly and disguised as arising your own desires. After all, it is not profitable for them to reveal themselves.
From people who are far removed from God and mired in sins, demons can no longer hide. For example, patients with alcohol or drug addiction in a state of delirium tremens can see them face to face. They often persuade the unfortunate to commit suicide and take their souls to themselves.
By God's permission or by the extreme sinfulness of people, demons are allowed to inhabit them. For example, Motavilov, who was next to Serafim Sarovsky, did not stay in serious vices, but, nevertheless, was possessed. His conviction that the churches of Christians, who regularly receive communion, could not be affected by demons, apparently played a trick on him, and he paid for his arrogance.
