WHERE EVIL SPIRITS CAME FROM AND HOW TO CAST THEM OUT




‘In the synagogue there was a man who had an unclean spirit and he cried out with a loud scream, “Ahh! What have You to do with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have You come to destroy us? I know Who You are – the Holy One of God!” Jesus rebuked him saying, “Be quiet and come out of him!” 
When the demon had thrown the man down, it came out of him without injuring him. 
They were amazed and said, “What Word is this? For with authority and power He commands the evil spirits and they come out?’” (Luke 4:33 to 36).

We have written this Bible study for your information, solely to deal with the subject of the devil, demons and how to take authority over them. 
We are not to gloat about the God-given authority we have over the devil. ‘I have given you authority and power to trample upon serpents and scorpions and over all the power the enemy possesses and nothing will in any way harm you. Nevertheless, do not rejoice because the spirits are subject to you, but rejoice because your names are written in heaven’ (Luke 10:19 & 20), nor are we permitted to call the devil names. ‘When the Archangel Michael contending with the devil, argued about the body of Moses, he dared not bring an abusive condemnation against him but simply said, “The Lord rebuke you’” (Jude 9). 
If the Lord God Himself, Jesus and Michael speak to the devil calmly and without harsh words or name calling, so should we. 
Christians must not become puffed up with pride because we have been given authority over the devil and all the powers of darkness. We need to keep in mind, it was pride that caused the devil’s downfall. 
We should always cast out demons the same way Jesus did by speaking with authority, telling the demons to be quiet and ordering them to come out of the person. We cannot improve on His method.

FAITH COMES BY HEARING THE WORD OF GOD

 FAITH COMES BY HEARING THE WORD OF GOD We need to share our faith in God and in the truth of the Bible with the strength of our firm personal faith.  If we try to preach from ourselves, it will not achieve the desired result, which is the salvation of the person we are preaching to.  Salvation, or going to heaven is referred to as ‘entering His rest’.  Some people who have heard the Scriptural Gospel will definitely enter heaven but some will be rejected because of their own disobedience.

EXPLAINING THE NEPHILIM GIANTS The Nephilim were the wicked giant offspring born to the women who had been raped by the fallen angels referred to as ‘the sons of God’.  The Nephilim ‘men of renown’ were not decent men who were well known, they were vicious, violent, wicked half human, half fallen angels who later brought into existence the Amalek and Anakim (plural of Anak).

DIFFERING OPINIONS BETWEEN GODLY AND UNGODLY PEOPLE

Image
 DIFFERING OPINIONS BETWEEN GODLY AND UNGODLY PEOPLE There are so many differences of opinion and behaviour it is impossible to list every difference. We hope the reader can understand the differences written here and can understand, ungodly people think and behave differently for two reasons.  One reason is they do not know God and therefore walk in their own form of self-righteousness. They are spiritually lost and need salvation.  They are spiritually deaf so they cannot listen to God’s Word.  The other reason they oppose Godly people is they are walking in the footsteps of their father, the devil.  Jesus said, “Why do you not understand My speech? Because you cannot hear My Word. Read more at: www.bibleabookoftruth.com
