Proving the existence of spirits

If you believe in the Bible then you have to believe in spirits on some level. The writers of the New Testament assume that it’s readers understood that a spirit world existed and the human beings interact with said world. Ninety percent of Jesus’ ministry on earth revolves around spirits of some form, angelic or demonic. Jesus actually empowered His disciples with authority over certain spirits. The Bible presents a perspective that people can be influenced and even possessed by spiritual forces called demons. Exorcism, also known as “deliverance ministry,” helps people who are afflicted by spiritual forces. Many people in the Bible were harassed by spirits that would even cause them to attempt to kill themselves. These spirits hold no regard to age, gender or religious affiliation. They manifested their presence through people on street corners, in prostitutes homes and even in the Temple!
Don’t believe everything you hear about these spirits. Spirits are a separate creation, they are not “dead people” with unfinished business. The word “demon” is a lump sum term which includes various categories and levels of spiritual power. Some demons are fallen angels; others are separate creations distinct from angels. Many people believe that there was another race of disembodied human-like creatures created before humankind.
Proving the existence of these spirits is hard because they exist on a different field of view than humans are naturally accustomed to viewing. I think it is harder to prove that they do not exist.
