Demonized Boy (Part 2)

The Life and Teachings of ChristSteve Gregg
In this talk, Steve Gregg discusses the story of the demonized boy from the Bible and provides his insights on the subject of demonization. He questions the age of the boy and whether demons can be inherited through generations. Gregg notes that faith is preferable, but lack of faith is not a limitation for God. He also talks about the role of prayer and fasting in casting out demons and how fasting can become incidental. Ultimately, Gregg believes that healing and exorcism referred to in the Bible actually happened.
