Yes I have had experience of spirits too and I am a Christian. Many Christians are spiritually sensitive and can sometimes see through the veil that separates heaven and earth, the spirit world and us.
The bible does indeed say that spirits exist and I think that the whole existence of our world would not be possible without God who is spirit and created all the spritual worlds first.
Just look in the Bible it does say that there is more to this than just God and us. In fact it says "Our struggle is not against flesh and blood but against the spiritual rulers, the authorities and (something like) dark powers". Look it up, I'm sure e-Bibles can bring it up for you!
I have had experience of spirits, me and my dad both smell the same perfume and that was heavy and like roses that apparently my great grandma used to wear. I told my mum and she told me he used to smell it as well although I am too scared to tell him!
He might think it's weird, we have both had scary experiences at night while in bed but the difference is he has had it many times and me only a few. The first time I ever did I prayed and was saved from the terror that surrounded me. It was like pure evil in the room and I had never been as scared. So I prayed and saw that God was faithful to me and that the God I had learned about in Sunday School was real! I Have been a Christian ever since and Thank God whenever I get it (about twice a yr but it's unpredictable) I can call on his name and KNOW that he will save me and never leave me to their mercy to suffer and be terrified. I don't know how my dad can stand it, NEVER do ouija boards ppl my dad did and again although he only mentioned it once, it can seriously cause you problems if the spirits don't want to leave as they sometimes dont.
I belive they are fallen angels, that angels that rebelled against God with satan and were expelled from heaven. This of course made them very angry and want to get revenge. So they see people as the way to get to and hurt God by trying to destroy them and make them do evil so they will be condemned along with the evil one on the day of judgement. We are innocent in this dispute and so God has given us a second chance in the form of his son our messiah who saves us but only if we turn from our evil ways. The holy spirit restrains evil from engulfing us and keeps our world relatively peaceful even tho we do evil, that is how merciful God is!
The devil is also jealous of us for being able to have a loving relationship with God because he cannot and has lost his chance. Who knows what he did that was so bad he couldnt be given a second chance but to rebel against God when you already have a favoured position as Archangel then that seems kind of impossibe to do so it must have been a BIG deal.

First, let me say that the bible talks about Christ casting out spirits all the time. I believe in spirits. I don't believe they can posses you unless you let them in. There has to be a part of you that is willing to allow them into your sphere.
As far as spirits go, we all are spirits in a sense. We have a spirit, what most people call a soul, so of course there are spirits.
As far as ghosts are concerned, I lived in a haunted house growing up. It was really scary sometimes, but sometimes we would just acknowledge the presence and then it would be fine.
He liked attention and we tried to get him to go away, but nothing worked.. not blessing the house, not saying prayers, nothing. He just kept coming back. We found out that the land was his before the house was built on it, so the land was what he was haunting. We had our land blessed by leaders of our church and then we had no problems.
I have also been in many haunted places. I can always tell there is someting not quite right about a place. It's just this feeling I get, like when someone is watching you and the hair on the back of you neck stands up, or like just a feeling of something being there when nothing is. It's hard to explain. I just know that I believe in ghosts and in spirits, but they aren't necessarily one in the same.
To me a spirit is one who has crossed over and is in heaven, a ghost is an earthbound spirit that doesn't want to, or doesn't know how to get to heaven.

Spirit is real, but the only ghost I know of or believe in is the Holy Ghost.

I believe that spirits are real and if we believe in Jesus and God that answers that for me, maybe others have
a different opinion. I think ghosts and/or spirits come to people they need to for whatever reason, that's just my
opinion of course.

actually..if you want to know the truth, and i wouldnt lie to you..or even take the time to write you and waste your time reading this as of me wasting my time to write you..., but i do see spirits and yes they are very much as real as we are alive, the only difference is we cannot see them but we have feel them..i see them all the time, the difference from a "ghost" and "spirit" is a ghost is a earth bound soul that is stuck here for whatever reason it may be..but most of the reason is because they dont want to leave there family members and they dont want to go to heaven yet.."spirits" are souls that made it to heaven with no problem, but tend to come down and check on us..from time to time but a "ghost" refuses to leave or feel they cant leave and haunt places, spirits dont haunt places.

i believe that spirits are real. I believe that after we die our spirits dwell in spirit paradise or prison until we are resurrected and judged. I believe that this spirit world is very close and the mortal veil prevents us from seeing it. Perhaps for people with a "sixth sense" the veil between our world and the spirit world is thinner.
