 Christians and demon possession part one. There's a lot of confusion on this topic, so this will be addressed in seven parts. Biblically speaking, Christians can be attacked and affected by demons, Ephesians 6, 1 Peter 5-8, but never possessed 1 John 5-18, 1 Peter 2-9. 1 John 4-4 says, Because the Spirit who lives in you is greater than the Spirit who lives in the world. Clearly, the Bible there is telling us that one Spirit is in us, and the other is not. Yes, at times, Christians do need deliverance before the true believer. Deliverance doesn't mean exorcism, where the demon exhibits control over their physical capacities. In the Bible, there's only one word used to describe possession or demonization, and it's never used to describe a believer. So, Christians can be attacked by demons, but not possessed. We need deliverance, not exorcism. So, how do we explain Christians who manifest follow for part two?
