Play with the cards you're dealt not the ones you wish you had.
The Holy Ghost instructed me
to tell you

A winner plays his hand by every card in the deck.
And wins many a game with cards He never was dealt.
I never ever lose a hand.
The Lord is God.
 
I do not believe I have done any sin to any of you.
I believe all I have done is said the truth to you about you.

But for the sake of righteousness and I love truth
if any of you believe that I have done any wrong to you
by all means send me a private message and
tell me the wrong I have committed concerning you.
And I will take it before the Lord. And if the Lord agrees with you
I will make it right by you as according to the Lord.
 
I am not suggesting that they are the same temple, but if demons can co-exist with God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit/Holy Ghost in the literal temple, then why would we think that they cannot co-exist in the figurative temple or in Christian's bodies? I mean, the former temple had Christ's blood brought into it in order to purchase our redemption (Heb. 9:12) or our figurative temples were purchased by that same blood, so I believe that there is a comparison to be made.

Anyhow, the only concession that I am seeking at this point in our conversation is that demons and the Holy Ghost/Holy Spirit can co-exist in the same place at the same time, and this truth is evidenced by what we read earlier.

If God is omnipresent, there can logically be no problem with demons occupying the same space as God and God occupying the same space as demons.
 
The fruits of the Holy Spirit are: love, kindness, joy, patience, faithfulness, goodness, self-control. So, the answer is definitely, without any doubt, NO, a Christian (by Christian I mean someone who prays, goes to Church, takes the Holy Communion and reads the Bible) can't have a demon dwell in him.

I agree. The HS will not cohabit with demons.
(I spent three weeks in Romania years ago with a National Guard unit that helped set up a base near Babadag.
I remember a lot of sunflowers, attending a long Romanian Orthodox church service, and a day off in Constanza.)
