According to the Bible, we are to test the spirits: 1 John 4:1-3...1Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world. 2This is how you can recognize the Spirit of God: Every spirit that acknowledges that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God, 3but every spirit that does not acknowledge Jesus is not from God. This is the spirit of the antichrist, which you have heard is coming and even now is already in the world.
Question 1) Given the light of this passage, why do so many Christians say that all spirits are demons come to deceive people?
Question 2) Given the command to test the spirits, why do Christians say that communicating with spirits is wrong? If there is no communication, there is nothing to test.
