    Yeah, I know what you mean ! One would think it is illegal to not be either specifically lead by the Spirit or carnal. The result of really believing that is of course that one will try to be lead by the Spirit in every little detail and every second or else one is being carnal. That is both a heavy and a cumbersome yoke to carry and it is not the yoke of our Lord.

    What happens when a man with a legion of demons touches the earth and the earth touches you ? Does the distance between you lower the demon transfer efficiency kind of like with electricity ? Or is it skin-on-skin that works the magic ? In that case, what happens when there is an inch of clothing in between the skin ?

    Luke 10:19 Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you.

    What normally happens when someone goes to an area full of serpents or scorpions and tries to trample them is that the serpents will try to bite and the scorpions will try to sting. You might manage to crush some of them but not all of them, at least not without being bit and stung some times yourself, which could be fatal. Jesus' disciples knew this well because serpents and scorpions were common in their environment bordering the wilderness and desert areas.

    Jesus used this as a metaphor for dealing with demons. That is the main problem people have with the onlaying of hands, they are scared that if someone manages to touch them or pray over them while touching them then there will be transfer of demons or demonic power even when they aren't interested in receiving anything like that at all. Jesus told them he would keep them safe while dealing with the devil. They would be able to trample them down without getting bit or stung themselves.

    That is a powerful promise. Powerful enough that I will stand on it without fear, even in relation to possible infiltrators who would like to minister to me by the onlaying of hands in order to transfer something demonic to me.
