I want to spend some time looking at the question that often arises especially after learning what we have learned and that is, what can cause a person to become demon possessed, or what can open a person up to be possessed of a demon or demons?

I want to continue in our series by taking a look at times when demons controlled a group of people, as well as examples of those who choose to be possessed--united with Satan and see what we can learn.

I want to continue our series, Spiritual Possession, by taking a look at some examples that deal with those who were from the church or in church leadership. If you don't think that someone from a good Christian home or church cannot be possessed by demons then you haven't been paying attention! I want to begin by looking at this devout follower of Jesus called Mary Magdalene.

Demons want to destroy human beings and if they can't do that, they want to possess us so as to coerce us in a way that best suits them to influence others to sin. Sin leads to destruction. These demons know that they are going to be destroyed and they want all to be a part of it. The demoniacs at Gergesa are a lesson about where sin will lead. Let's take a look at this example and learn.....

I want to contemplate one of the greatest hopes we have, if not the greatest, concerning that of Christ's ministry in our behalf. I want to look at the Resurrection Assurances with you.

Demon possession doesn't mean that you no longer have a will, or the freedom to choose. It means that your will is taken captive and caged, then beaten down and thus so weakened that it cannot but make the wrong choices--this is where sin leads. But it is possible that Jesus can be seen through the bars of the cage and set the captive free!

It seems like anywhere you go in the world, in just about anybody's life, at some point there are these minions of darkness that scare us. Now, with that kind of commonality there has to be some sort of truth associated with it, and there is. The Bible doesn't call him the bogeyman. It has another name. They're known as demons, devils, or evil spirits. And you'd be surprised how much the word of God has to say about demons, devils, and evil spirits and how to defeat these creatures. And defeating them is what is really important for us to know and understand--especially as we are living in the last days when such manifestations are going to increase and we will be confronted more and more by them. In this series of studies concerning spiritual possession we will be looking at the powers involved in spiritual possession, we are going to define some terms, look at examples of possession and how one grieves the Holy Spirit and then how to cast out demons.

We need to be cognizant of the fact that there’s another realm, another dimension that we cannot see with our physical sight, and yet it’s just as real as the world we’re living in right now with the things we see all around us. The apostle Paul spoke of these things in 2 Corinthians 4:18 when he said, “While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.”

As we have learned in all our studies of Revelation 13 and 14, very soon--with blinding force, there is going to be a national Sunday law. With that law will come the restrictions of the mark and then eventually a death decree for all who refuse it.

In light of the unprecedented event concerning this Jesuit Pope that addressed the US Congress, I think it would be a good idea for us to review what inspiration says will be the order of events regarding the coming Sunday Law and how we should react to these events as they unfold.
