Spiritual WarfareSteve Gregg
In this discourse, Steve Gregg discusses demonic possession and deliverance based on his experiences with missionary work in Manila and encounters with possessed individuals. He asserts that Christians are not exempt from possession and that it is important to understand the realm of demonology in order to effectively address it. Gregg notes that while the Bible does not explicitly address demon possession among Christians, it is important to consult scriptural passages concerning encounters with demons by Jesus and his disciples. He cautions against basing doctrine solely on personal experiences and asserts that demonization is a measure of control or influence by a demonic spirit, rather than complete possession.
