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.

SAME SEX MARRIAGE WILL BRING GOD'S JUDGEMENT

Image
New topical topic To the foolish politicians who vote for same sex marriage, we Christians must stand up and declare: In the Name of Jesus our Saviour, stop your stupid nonsense. Do you not realise that by passing the law to allow same sex couples to marry, you are bringing God’s wrath and judgement upon your country – upon the people your swore to represent? Do not pass that bill; do not allow same sex couples to marry; do not accept that same sex marriage is okay – because it is not. It is the legal sanctioning of an abomination to God, and that was the turning point in God’s decision to destroy the earth with a flood. If that does not impress you, then perhaps the knowledge that next time God sends His judgement to earth, He will burn the whole earth with fire (Isaiah 66:14 to16; 2 Peter 3:7, 10 & 12).

EGYPT'S TEN PLAGUES

Image
EGYPT'S TEN PLAGUES The Pharaoh in the time of Moses was a hard, stubborn and ruthless man. His heart was very hard and the  Lord hardened his heart even more so.  He would not initially allow the Hebrews to leave Egypt but after ten  horrific plagues, the Pharaoh forced the Hebrews to flee and they took tons of gold, silver, precious stones, flocks, herds and clothing as payment for many years of unpaid slavery.  They were not slaves when they first  went into Egypt, but after Joseph died and a new Pharaoh arose, the Hebrews were then forced to be  slaves.  In spite of their slavery the Hebrews had so many children, at one point in time the Hebrews outnumbered the Egyptians. The ten plagues were divine judgement on a very idolatrous nation. See more at: www.bibleabookoftruth.com
