  You appear to restore life and complete strength to any deceased creature, instead calling a belier devil with the young simple template to possess the body. The condition of the remains is not a factor. This spell can even target creatures whose bodies have been destroyed, provided that you unambiguously identify the deceased in some fashion (reciting the deceased's time and place of birth or death is the most common method). The creature can have been Dead no longer than 10 years per Caster Level.
  If you fail to overcome the subject's spell resistance, the subject's soul can negate the calling and gain the option to return to life (as True Resurrection) in the restored body. The possession otherwise functions as Possession, except that the subject's soul is not present to resist.
  When false resurrection ends or the demon is removed from the subject, the demon returns to the Abyss, leaving the body alive but soulless (like that created by Clone). If the soul hasn't been returned to life already, it has the option to return in the now-empty body if it still lives (as True Resurrection). If the body was killed, the demon is sent back to the Abyss but the subject remains Dead. Attempts to identify greater false resurrection with a skill check incorrectly identify it as True Resurrection (see Ruse Spells). A fooled viewer mistakes greater false resurrection's aura as the lingering aura of an instantaneous conjuration effect.
  You can target someone killed by a death effect or someone who has been turned into an undead creature and then destroyed.
  You cannot target someone who has died of old age. Constructs and undead creatures can't be targeted.
