The head of the International Association of Exorcists (www.icaoe.weebly.com/) confirmed that the official Vatican has approved the conduct of rites to expel demons.
Specialists in the expulsion of demons, in other words, exorcists, now have one more ace in their sleeve - their actions were approved by the official Vatican. The Catholic Church recognized the existence of the International Association of Exorcists, which includes 250 priests from 30 countries. The head of the organization, Francesco Bamonte, stated that the decision of the Vatican is especially important for all members of the association. “Exorcism is a gift for the afflicted,” he said.
It is worth noting that the current head of the Catholic Church, Pope Francis, speaks of a diabolical beginning much more often than his predecessors did. In May last year, a video appeared on the Internet on which, according to its author, a pontiff was captured capturing the ceremony of expelling demons. And in fact, the frame shows Francis leaning over a man chained to a wheelchair, passionately reciting prayers. One of the eyewitnesses claimed that four demons had settled in the man, and Pope Francis managed to save the suffering person from them.
And if the pontiff did not comment on the situation, then the obsessed willingly told his story to reporters. He said that for the first time, demons took possession of him in Mexico in 1999 when he was on a business trip there. “I did not see this, but I felt everything,” he recalled. “I noticed that something approached me and stopped very close. Then I suddenly saw something penetrating my chest. I thought I was having a heart attack. ”
A man, whose name is Angel, said that after an unusual incident, his life began to crumble. “I could not sleep, and when I was able to sleep, I had terrible nightmares with the devil.” Angel also said that there were times when he began to rave and even speak unknown languages. Neither doctors nor priests were able to help the demon possessed, who could not get rid of them. The man lost the company, got into debt, and in order to pay them he had to sell everything, including his own house. One day he dreamed of Pope Francis, and Angel decided to go to the Vatican to ask for help from him. However, later, the Vatican authorities in an official statement to reporters denied the speculations of eyewitnesses, explaining that the heir to the Holy See said a regular prayer over a man.
In January this year, the Catholic Church announced an increase in the staff of exorcists in connection with the constant increase in the number of charlatans who promise to save demons for money. The diocese of Milan appointed at the beginning of the year seven experts in the expulsion of the devil, and three priests from Sardinia were sent to Rome to teach the rite. A few months ago, Italy hosted special seminars for exorcists, which were attended by hundreds of priests from around the world.
Bamont’s father is convinced that there is a need to train new specialists in exorcism, as the International Association of Exorcists simply cannot cope with a huge number of requests for help. “More and more people are becoming obsessed with demons because of the growing interest in the occult. Those few specialists that we have cannot help everyone asking for help, ”he emphasized.
