Novelist Frank Peretti details in fictional form a similar case and its results.8 Blood rituals are, to an increasing degree, coming to the attention of those who deal with crime. Those involved in these rituals, whether criminals or not, usually are severely demonized. Sadly, the police are often more aware and better informed on these matters than pastors and church leaders. Many are convinced that some type of evil is behind much of the gang crimes and drug traffic. A certain number of Christian converts come out of occult backgrounds. Marvelous conversion experiences prompt them to seek church membership. Unfortunately, we have lost the early Church tradition of cleansing new converts of demonic infestation before they join, so they usually come into our churches carrying some or all of the demons they once served. Although the demons are weakened because they have lost the spiritual center of the person, they hang on in mind, body, emotions and will (see chapter 3). From those positions, they can continue to disrupt both the life of the convert and the lives of those with whom the convert relates. Whether as a result of general dysfunction or occult involvement, the Lord’s children are bleeding and broken. The enemy has attacked them throughout their painful lives, and many still carry demons. As Christians, we cannot turn these people away. We need to be as compassionate as Jesus, working in love and power to bring healing and deliverance. Today, possibly more than ever before, it is critical that we learn how to bring the light of Jesus to those in pain and need.Kraft, Charles H..

He warned them not to follow after others, not to become corrupted by them, not to worship their foreign gods and idols, but sin is a great weapon in spiritual warfare and Satan's attacks on God's chosen are well documented in the Old Testament. He succeeded in corrupting them; many followed after false gods and worshiped idols; they practiced perversion and some even committed human sacrifice. But he was not able to destroy them completely for the Lord always kept a remnant for Himself, a righteous branch who had not bent the knee or bowed down to false gods, who had not fallen into wickedness, who still worshiped the one, true God. After 1000 years of hardship and spiritual warfare, after bringing His people out of exile in Babylon, the Lord had a people who were ready to stand for righteousness, who would no longer follow after the foreign gods of other peoples, who would faithfully follow after the Lord God Almighty and keep His laws and His statutes, who would await His savior. The prophets of the Old Testament had written over 300 prophecies about the Savior that the Lord would send, who would bring salvation to mankind, who would restore him and finally reconcile him to God. He would be the Prince of Peace (Isa. 9: 6 KJV), the King of Kings, the Lord of Lords. He would bring an end to evil; He would overcome Satan and his demons. He would reign in righteousness (Jeremiah 23: 5 KJV). His kingdom would be an everlasting kingdom (Daniel 7: 27 KJV). On these promises they waited and they prayed.Rooks, C. D..

The demon was said to cause men to want women and can cause one to take off their clothing, coincidentally enough. I found it interesting that both these women were involved as prostitutes.
