The International Society of Christian Demonologists is a society of both Christian clergy and laity trained specifically to investigate claims of preternatural activity. In addition, our members work with professionals in the fields of psychology, the medical field, and pastoral counseling to better serve the various needs of those who come to us for help. All members must complete a course of training that includes basic Christian beliefs, the theology of spiritual warfare, and the proper methodology of investigating claims of preternatural activity. Membership is by invitation only, and is open only to those professing the Christian faith. We do not use any occult methods, nor do we work with "psychics", or any other such occultist.
Those seeking help should be aware of several things:
1. When contacting us, please provide a full synopsis of your experiences, including the names and contact information for any witnesses, as well as any audio or visual evidence you may have.
2. Be prepared to be contacted by one of our investigators for evaluation of your case. They are well trained and know what to ask and what to look for. Non-cooperation means we will close your case.
3. If you are not a Christian, understand that before we can help you with any potential case you will need to be a convert to the Christian faith. If, for example, you have a valid case, but you're a "psychic", "wiccan", or working with such occultists, we cannot help you. The long-term safety of a relationship with Jesus Christ is the only thing that will help you.
4. Be prepared to seek pastoral counseling with a minister in your area, and for us to communicate your claims to that minister so he can better serve your spiritual needs.
The first step in preternatural counseling is investigation of all claims. What we do in this process is determine whether the person contacting us is really in need of exorcism, whether they simply need their property blessed, or if there are other plausible reasons for the perceived phenomenon. This is a vital step that saves a lot of time and helps ensure that the clients physical, emotional, psychological, and spiritual needs are met. If we were to enter into a case with the preconceived notion that the person is in need of exorcism we would not really be helping, and may add very dangerous imagery to potential psychological or medical issues that could be the true cause of the perceived activity.
Before a person can be considered for help they must meet the following requirements:
a. They must convert to Christianity- If they are not, then it is extremely difficult to help them. How can there be an effective exorcism without the confession forgiveness of sins, or without the baptism and confirmation of Christ's Church? It is vital that the person be baptized and regularly be a part of a church community for some time.
b. They must be willing to give up all areas of willful sin- Example: If a client enjoys pornography and is unwilling to give it up, then it will be nearly impossible to cast out a demon that may be oppressing them with obsessive thoughts and diabolic temptation regarding sexual perversions without it coming right back. They must be willing to destroy these strongholds. Furthermore, and this is very important; they must be willing to communicate about their past openly with their pastor, counselor, and if necessary, exorcist.
We currently have members in several states, including Kentucky, Ohio and Texas.
