This argument always comes up. The same argument was made against Jesus.
When the Pharisees heard this, they said, “The man drives out demons only by Beelzebul, the ruler of the demons.”Miracles like this, and others like this (the Shroud of Turin, the Tilma of Juan Diego) lead people to Christ.Knowing their thoughts, He told them: “Every kingdom divided against itself is headed for destruction, and no city or house divided against itself will stand. If Satan drives out Satan, he is divided against himself. How then will his kingdom stand? And if I drive out demons by Beelzebul, who is it your sons drive them out by? For this reason they will be your judges. If I drive out demons by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God has come to you. How can someone enter a strong man’s house and steal his possessions unless he first ties up the strong man? Then he can rob his house. Anyone who is not with Me is against Me, and anyone who does not gather with Me scatters. Because of this, I tell you, people will be forgiven every sin and blasphemy, but the blasphemy againstthe Spirit will not be forgiven. Whoever speaks a word against the Son of Man, it will be forgiven him. But whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven him, either in this age or in the one to come.
Satan does not lead people to Christ. Therefore, this miracle can't be of demonic origin.
Believe what you want and need to believe. I stand by what I said, but I will add that I can accept some people might be led to Rome by something like this, but not to Christ. The Bible tells us that “faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.”
Satan does not lead people to Christ. Therefore, this miracle can't be of demonic origin.
Nope, they don't...They lead people to a false christ which is your Catholic religion...Your religion claims as much, that the Catholic religion IS God...
And Satan is very happy to lead people to false religions...Especially his own religion...

Do these “relics” focus on Jesus or on the presumed “saint?”
