Spiritual WarfareSteve Gregg
In this segment, Steve Gregg discusses the topic of demonic possession and bondage, emphasizing the need for caution when approaching these subjects due to the prevalence of speculation and sensationalism. While he acknowledges that certain sins may lead to physical maladies, he cautions that theories regarding demon possession should not be taken as dogmatic points. He argues that deliverance ultimately stems from repentance and reliance on the governance of God and the Holy Spirit, rather than from practices such as hypnosis or the use of drugs.
