Presence of demons
Shouldn`t be too hard to knock up a demon detector. How about an open bible on a stick. You point it at a suspect. If the pages flip, you know you`re getting warm. Or the new, improved Mk. II model, you enclose the works in a glass case to prevent a breeze from giving false positives.

Re: added "as recorded in the Bible"
Which tome are you pulling all these quotations from, Ten:Ten? Surely not the Rubber Bible? Y`know. the one that s-t-r-e-t-c-h-e-s to accommodate all 36,000 Christian groups? Hang on, another two just started up.

Re: added "as recorded in the Bible"
I've given you chapter and verse. Go to any KJV or NAS Bible and read it for yourself. Rarely do unbelievers address the message that Christ gives to those who honor Him as Lord. Instead, we get replys such as yours.
​
Them`s the breaks, sonny boy.
​
I thought the KJV was compiled by a committee from dodgy manuscripts. And revised ten times. Can`t see the connection from there to Jesus.
​
While the NAS, surprise, surprise, was compiled from 'newer manuscripts'. Does that mean the older were wrong? Still no connection to the autographs.
​
How about something based on Jerome?

Re: added "as recorded in the Bible"
Then here are a few more breaks you will have to handle. Consider these words from Jesus in John 3,
Since you are quoting from present-day Bibles, show me the provenance back to the autographs. IOW, how do you know 'these words from Jesus' are genuine?
