| Well, I am almost 100% sure I've read a scripture like that. I'll look, though. |

| I don't know where it is either, but I'm 100% sure that you're right about that verse. |

It's how you use the game. If you're playing it all the time basically making it your idol, then it's demonic. If you know what's wrong in the game and can make a clear stand against it, then there's nothing wrong in playing it (well, most of the time. REally depends upon the game).
Same goes for movies; if you can make a critic on it then you can watch acknowledging everything you know which comes from sin. |

Yeah I'm not sure about that. I did a word search: Ephesians 4:30
And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, with whom you were sealed for the day of redemption.
2 Timothy 2:19
Nevertheless, God's solid foundation stands firm, sealed with this inscription: “The Lord knows those who are his,” and, “Everyone who confesses the name of the Lord must turn away from wickedness.” |

Another thing to consider with anime, in my opinion, is where is the 'magic' or 'supernatural powers' coming from. If I can't say God (as in the Father or Jesus) then I view it as corrupt.

| Let your Christian conscience guide you in this aspect as well, It isn't all about what is and what isn't , sometimes it is person specific... |

Perhaps I was misunderstood. I was saying I was fareley sure the Bible teaches that Christians cannot be demon possessed. I did not mean that there was a verse worded exactly the way I said that.
However, I could be wrong. |

People who have become Christians cannot be demon possessed, but that doesn't mean you don't have to be careful. Demons are still dangerous and try to make you fall by finding out your weakness. |
