There's a demon in me. He keep try to get me to sleep with girls or take over me so he can do it. It's getting incredible difficult to control myself. This has never happen before until I touch the demonic looking knife in a antique store.
I'm afraid I'll end up sleep with this girl I'm seeing before marriage. How do I stop the demon from nagging me about it and try to take over me?

I am not sure if you are kidding or not. Under the assumption that you are not...
I had similar problems controlling my lustful feelings when I was younger. It probably is not connected to touching a knife or anything like that except by coincidence. As for an actual demon, I do not know you specificly, but in general I can state that Christians cannot be possessed by demons (there is a long and involved Scriptural basis for this, but I will not get into it right now. Email me if you want that). However, as Christians are fallible human beings, they do not need to be possessed to do sinful acts.
From a practical standpoint, you need to stop it. Sex is a wonderful thing, an act of great beauty that draws a man and woman together as nothing else can. However, it is sinful outside of the marriage covenant. You need to find another person, preferrably an older married guy, who can hold you accountable for your actions and be an encouragement for you when you are feeling really tempted.
Next, you are a perfect example of what Paul was talking about when he mentioned those not blessed with the gift of celibacy. Get married. Not just to anyone, mind you. Do not settle for the one you can live with, but find the one that you cannot live without and who feels the same way about you and get married. Then, keep it in your pants and save it for the wife because you will be tempted to cheat.
Also, probably a good idea to get rid of those things that can get your ... um... blood up. Lose any subscriptions to nude mags, don't go to strip clubs, etc. And if you are a Christian, spend a lot of time in the Word. Especially Thesselonians and Romans as they talk to this subject.
All the best to you.

Dude, you need to take responsibility for your own thoughts and actions and not blame demons. Recognize, you have a problem with lust and try your best to control your actions. Get your mind off it.

Forget all that religious crap and enjoy your life boy. Its not a demon and has nothing to do with touching a damn knife.

Take a ice cold shower. Then go throw yourself in the bramble bushes and roll around. It that isn't enough take a belt and beat yourself. It is what the early monks did. Or you can throw out the Playboy magazines and get involved in sports.

I hate to break it to you, but the "demon" never goes away. Best to give up now, and enjoy yourself.

Uh huh. Stop listening to the crap religion teaches you and live your life. That would work. There is no demon, its all in your head.

Either cut it off or see a psychologist... (Though the first may also require the second.)
