Demon Possession
Individual TopicsSteve Gregg
Steve Gregg provides an in-depth analysis of the topic of demon possession. He notes that the term "demon possession" is not found in the Bible and discusses the distinction between being "demon possessed" and "demon oppressed." Gregg argues that while some cases of apparent demon possession might have a purely medical explanation, there are cases that cannot be explained away and are best accounted for as supernatural or caused by demons. He concludes that demonic possession requires careful study and consideration of the theological and personal factors involved.
