Don't say that those possessed are Not true christians, look at the Emily Rose story. There have been many well documented cases where true faithful christians have been possessed and they begged God to help them as well as priests, but God didn't. Why?

You guys! This one is pretty good, but you still can't wring them dry! Fancy footwork, you Christians... ;-)

If you watched the Emily Rose movie, you would know that an explanation was provided: Emily Rose said that it was allowed to happen so as to make people realize that the devil and his demons are real, and that there really is a spiritual realm, which many people today seem to ignore. I don't know if this is the actual reason God allows it, but it makes a certain amount of sense.
In any case, I would like to know what the "well-documented" cases are, and how would the documenters know how "true" and "faithful" the people are deep down inside? I thought only God knew that.

A person cannot be possessed by Christ and Satan at the same time. Priests have no special power in that area.

A Christian has the Spirit of God in them. There is no "room" for Satan or a demon.
Satan and demons flee from true Christians.
It seems you are insistent that someone like this Emily must be a Christian despite any evidence that could exist to the contrary.
And another news flash... priests are not Christians.
It all boils down to the gospel and believing the gospel, and those who believe and teach a false gospel.
There is no salvation in a false gospel or believing it, for God does not give His Spirit to those who believe a false gospel or a falsified gospel.
