The Life and Teachings of ChristSteve Gregg
Steve Gregg discusses the topic of demon possession in Mark 1:23-26 and addresses the claim that Christians can be demon-possessed. He argues that while there is a lack of evidence for demon possession in the Bible, demons can still have a hostile effect on Christians even if they cannot reside in them. He cites James and 1 John 4:4 in support of the idea that Jesus is greater than the devil and cannot be demon-possessed. Gregg encourages Christians to focus on sharing the gospel and helping all people, regardless of whether or not they are Christians.
