Demons: Who They Are & What They Do (Part 1)

The reason most cultures have categories for "the supernatural and spirit possession" is not because they are backwards or pre-modern, but because they are more in touch with Biblical reality than we are. We often talk about not letting our culture trump the Bible. We don't want to be "woke" like the culture; we want to be biblical. Yet this issue runs so deep that we don't even notice it. Any focus on one thing for a prolonged amount of time is viewed as a dangerous potential for imbalance, rather than recognizing that the boat may indeed need rocking.0:00 Preview0:46 Introduction and Text2:39 Opening Prayer3:57 A Kentucky Man Who Deeply Cared for People5:57 Cultural Baggage Can Hinder Us from Walking Out the Faith7:03 As a Westerner, What Is Your Perspective on Demons?13:23 Does Your Culture Have a Category for the Supernatural?21:27 Demons Are Fallen Angels23:57 Satan Leads Legions of Demons25:45 What Do Demons Do?26:56 First, the Devil Works Through Lies29:36 Second, the Devil Works Through Destroying31:36 Third, the Devil Works Through Temptation33:28 Fourth, the Devil Accuses You37:08 Fifth, the Devil Is a Cosmic Warrior40:13 In Closing41:20 One of My Favorite Verses45:54 Closing Prayer
