 Okay, so before we start, I would like to make it abundantly clear that there are demons. There are angels. There are spiritual battles that we don't even comprehend that are happening. They are happening daily. We are talking about battles between beings that are higher than humans. And so I have to believe that there are, there's demonic influence and demonic presence all over the world that we don't know about. As a matter of fact, we need to be aware of these demonic influences. We need to be aware of what demons do. We need to be aware that not necessarily what they do, but that they are there. Remember it was Eve whose deception was precipitated by a demon. Recall this was the serpent, the devil who is a demon after all, who deceives Eve. And so does that mean that people can have demons or be demonically influenced or be demonized as the word of choice by some people or oppressed or possessed? Yes, I do believe that is possible. I believe it happens as a matter of fact more often than not. However, that's not the question that I want to pose. The question is, is can a Christian have a demon? Can a person with the Holy Spirit have a demon? I say emphatically, no, I think the Bible teaches that. And for anyone that wants to say so, I think it goes contrary to the scriptures. So for that reason, I say that the deliverance ministries are not Biblical. As a matter of fact, oftentimes are extremely ungodly. Does that mean that deliverance is ungodly? No, deliverance is godly. As a matter of fact, the whole point of the Bible is deliverance. We need to talk about what is deliverance. But the deliverance ministries that we see completely unbiblical and in many cases matter of fact, probably most cases are ungodly. So now that being the case, have I someone's going to say, Corey, you only say that because, well, that's just not you. You don't you don't do deliverance. It says who you don't believe it. Yes, I do. You've never cast a demon out. Well, first of all, I don't think it's ever been me that's ever cast a demon out. I think it's always been the Holy Spirit, the presence of God that does so. Not me, not my there's nothing good about me or my words at all. I think now, just like Jesus says that he's come to set the captains free, that he is deliverance. And so what we do is we introduce people to Jesus and let God take over. The Bible is clear. As a matter of fact, there's a reason why you never see. And I really do mean almost never, if ever, with the exception of maybe one or two people every now and then, somebody who believes in the deliverance ministry will have a conversation. There's probably one or two out there, but the ones that are most noted, they never want to have a conversation. Why? Because if you have them, if you hold them to the scriptures, they're not going to do a good job of it. And what they don't want to do is though they claim, and I can take them on, take them at their work, that they claim that they want to serve the Lord. They love the Lord. Well, if you can be found out that you are incorrect, well, then why not go with that if you find out that the way that you do deliverance is incorrect and the way that it should be done is different than what you're doing, then why wouldn't you do that? Unless it may mean that it may it might make you obsolete. I think that's what a lot of the motivation is amongst a lot of the people. I've asked them a lot of names that you know of, and I won't say their names, but a lot of the names you know of who are some of the leaders when you think about deliverance ministry, when you type in deliverance ministry or casting out demons. There are some names that pop up and I've tried to reach out to all of them. They all they know my name. They don't necessarily know me, but I know my name and they don't want to have a conversation with me. They don't want to have a conversation with a lot of other people than that. They'll go to familiar places. And I think that's important. The reason why they go to familiar places is because it's safe. They would much rather be in a sanctuary than on the streets. And I mean that without question, they would much rather go where it's it's free of any sort of problems where you have a captive audience where there's not likely to be any sort of problems there. That's what they they don't go where the fighting is heaviest. They would much rather stay in the back than rather instead of the front lines, meaning and they'll tell you that most of their deliverance. We've heard some say that most of their deliverance is or all of their deliverance is done in the church on Christians. Well, that doesn't make any sense. That doesn't make any sense to say that all of or most of your deliverance is done in the church and on Christians. Have you stepped outside and seen the world? If you have the power that you say you have, why not go out into the world and do so? Because I want to I want to compare what you see happening in these deliverance ministries. I want to compare what you see versus what you know in the world and versus what we also see in the scriptures. Now, they'll never go where they're not invited. Never go where they're not invited. In other words, you'll never see them go to, I don't know, a prison. And cast a demon out. Lord knows there is a lot of demonic influence in prisons. You'll never see them go to the worst side of a different city, the bad neighborhoods. You won't see them going there and casting demons out. You won't see them go to an abortion clinic. The outs outside of them, Lord knows there are a lot of demonic influences there. You won't see them go where drug use is the heaviest. Clearly, a lot of demonic influence there. The problem is the problem is they know what would happen. I have asked people, listen, would you love to come with me? We can go to some place and we can go and now I want to share the gospel. You can cast demons out. Either way, let's just get some folks delivered. How about that? Not only do you not have to do with me, you can just go and do it in your own city. Pick a city, pick a state. You guys tout how often they tout. Now, let's just be let's be honest. They tout how often they are out preaching the gospel in all of these different churches. I've been to 100 churches, 200 churches, 500, 800, 1,000 churches. That might be the problem because you never hear them touting where I went to this neighborhood. I went to to this side of town in Memphis. I went to the south side of Chicago. I went over here in Philly. I went over here in the east side of Indianapolis. I went to South Dallas. I went to the Fifth Ward. You don't hear that. Why not? That should be an indication of one, their fear to their lack of power, because I can promise you there are people out there in those neighborhoods that are actually bringing about deliverance. Deliverance means to be set free. Deliverance means to be set free. And what you're going to notice is that we're bringing this up again that their people don't seem to be set free. Here is the common passage that we're going to that we're going to deal with every time that we talk about deliverance, because this is what your deliverance looks like. Here, Jesus, Jesus himself says, if you have the sun, the sun will make you free indeed. If the sun will make you free, you will be free indeed. And this word on toast is really indeed, thoroughly, completely. You're not free indeed. If you are free for today and then have to come back again and again and again, the implication that Jesus is making that once you are free, you are free forever. Now, I'm going to pose something to the folks that would disagree with me up hand. I want to ask you a question that I want you to compare. I want you to compare Jesus and the disciples I want you to even not the world on the same level. I want you to compare different people who think like me, myself, other folks that you might see on YouTube, Facebook, any other social media platform or different churches who agree with me and then compare that to those who disagree with us, those people who are known to be those who will cast out or slay demons. Compare their ministry with ours and there's a big boat. My question is this and all you simply have to do is again, and we've said this before, ask the people in the chats, ask people that have been watched this channel or channels like it or go to other ministries or different churches just like this. As well as in the Bible, notice the attitude, the action, the lifestyle, the walk, the manner, the speech of the people who agree like me. And then notice the people who follow those deliverance ministries. You couldn't walk two feet without someone having a demon in them, having to cast them out. There's some there's some manifestation constantly happening. Whereas over here, all quiet on the Western front. It's all quiet over here. Why is that? Well, Corey, that's because you don't believe in demons. You don't. First of all, I just said, I do believe in demons. They are demons and I think what's happening is people don't hear. People don't listen. Can I give you an example? Well, you know, let me hold up on this example, but just just the eye test, the smell test. I want you to think about this. Yeah, you might think that I don't believe in demons or demonic influence or someone in the chat says about spirit. I do believe in spiritual warfare. Whatever God said is the name of the shirt. So whatever God says, whatever the Bible says, that's what we'll go with. There is spiritual warfare. There is there are fights that are happening. That's how I open up. But there are actual, actual spiritual battles that are happening. Let me just say that again. There are spiritual battles that are happening. What I'm trying to get you guys to see is there are false apostles. There are fakes. There are phonies. There are people who are leading people astray. Now, there might be some that are doing so unintentionally, but you can best believe there are some that are doing it intentionally. And so we're going to also talk about how you actually do deliverance. How's the Bible show it and what happens as a result of that? But again, back to my point. How many of you all in the chats are demonized right now? How many of you all in the chats are manifesting manifesting right now? How many of you all in the chats have manifest within the last few days? Expect to manifest sometime soon? Probably none. There might be one or two. And those would be the folks that probably don't even follow this particular channel. But then if you go over to the other channels where they talk about demons, this demon, demon, demon, demon, demon. Manifestation all the time. Demonic manifestations all the time. Let me ask you a question. Which hospital do you want to go to? The one where the people are are well. Are recovering or the ones where they all stay suffering. They all stay bound. It's really a no brainer. It really is a no brainer. Now, there might be some people that have some emotional and mental issues because what people are saying, they're calling some things demons. Whether or not, because, you know, what? Let's just, can we just let's just be, let's just be clear. Let's be honest. Oftentimes we call something a demon and it's just you. Oftentimes we'll say it's a demon and it's just you. The devil doesn't have to work hard with everybody. He can just, you know, open the door and let you go. You know how to sin on your own. So let me answer this question, because I want to, this is what I want to deal with. Why are you coming against people getting delivered from demons? Are those other guys preaching a different gospel? Something? Absolutely. Yes. And I'm not coming against being delivered. I would wish I would love that some of you guys would actually listen to what's being stated, because what you do is your defense mechanism kicks in for somebody you don't know. I'm simply just introducing you to the Word of God. What is deliverance? Ask yourself this question. We'll go to the scriptures. Did Jesus ever deliver someone that didn't get delivered and or stay delivered? Can you pick the person in the Bible that ever got delivered and didn't stay delivered? I'm just just asking. Name the person because we need to whatever God said is what we need to say. Whatever's in the scripture is what we need to believe. Is there one person that got delivered and had to get delivered again? Is there one person that we can find that even followed? Not just Jesus, but how about follow James, John, Peter, Paul? Is there anyone? Is there anyone that you can find in the Bible? And by the way, stop telling me to go look at this person or that person's ministry. How about you go look at the Bible? Is there anyone in the Bible that ever delivered someone and that person needed to be delivered again? Or did you ever notice Paul or Peter or James or John always accompanied by demonized demonic possessed people? Have you ever noticed I see that page of my Bible is missing where Peter constantly came across people that were in his ministry, in his following. I'm not talking about non-believers. I'm talking about believers because if we can, if we can figure out that believers don't have demons and non-believers do, well, then what's the key? What's the cure? What's the solution? The one, the very person whose name is deliverance. Look up the word deliverance in the Old Testament. It is the word Yosheah. Where do we get that word from? That literally is the same word for Yosheah, I mean, Yeshua. In the New Testament, we only see it once in Philippians 1 19, I believe, deliverance. And by the way, it just means we rest you to be saved. That means, Salvation, guys, Jesus came to set us free. Now, we'll come back to some more of these little anecdotal statements in just a second, but I can promise you, and I've been saying this in sweetheart, I've been saying this to you. You pop up, you seem to have, with all due respect, an infatuation with demons, and I wish that you would put more faith in Christ than you do about the abilities of the demons. So now let's go and look to the scriptures. But Corey, who are you, by the way, to say how a person should cast a demon out? You've never done it again. Do you not think I have not been around a bunch of demons, a bunch of demonically influenced people in my life? Sure. Remember, I've told the story through a couple of stories. One, in particular, he had the entire prison is full of a bunch of tough guys or these guys who want to act tough. But there was one particular guy I told you the story about this guy who had everybody nervous and on end, just afraid of this guy because he's just this guy's got a demon. You know, you know how we knew he had a demon because he told us. And there was a telltale sign that gave it away that this guy had a demon. You tell me what you think. He says, I have a demon. I have a I've got these demons. Well, the reason why this this this statement comes out from is because we're asking him, why are you peeling your eyebrows and your skin off your face? Why are you not using a knife to cut yourself? He's digging his nails in to open up openings in his in his skin. And we asked, dude, what's what's happening with you? I've got demons in me. I got to let them out. You know what? I think you do have a demon. You know what? I'm not going to argue with you about whether you have one or not. Let's let's go with let's go with your answer. You do have a demon. So what did we do? Did we speak in tongues over him? You know, the default thing to do, go to speaking in tongues? No. Did we throw water on him? Pray over to throw it on. Annoying his head with no, we didn't do that either. You know, we did. I asked him a question. You seem bothered and tormented. Would you like to be at peace? Or as Jesus says, as a matter of fact, I'll do you even better. Some of you guys love the King James version. Will foul be made whole? Do you want to be made whole? Do you want to be well? He said, yes. And you can see the distress in his face. Think about a young brother. I think he was in his mid 20s, early 20s and just struggling and said, yes, I'm desperate. Particles of skin in his fingernails. What did we do? Told him how he could be made well. What Jesus did on the cross. And then guess what he said? He placed his faith in that. Guess what stopped? Guess what stopped immediately? The pulling his hair out. A few days later, about a week or so later, I brows grew back. Had some scars on his face, but he healed. As they say it in the old church, won't he do it? And he'll do it every time if you let him. If you think you are being oppressed or demonized, if you've got some sort of influence, one of two things, guys, one of two things. Either you're not saved or it's not a demon. The two, the two don't go together. How do I know? Well, let's just go to see what the Bible says. Jesus makes a statement. No, by the way, this is off the back of him casting out demons. This statement comes up. And let's go to Luke 11. Let's start in 21. He says, when a strong man fully armed, guards his own house, his possessions are undisturbed. Well, in our case, as a believer, who's a strong man? The Holy Spirit. And he guards his own possessions. Who's his possession? Us. Us. We are his possession. And because we're his possession, he guards it. Look, he said, he used the term fully armed. Fully armed. Think about that. To be fully armed, here's my question. Oh, I'm sorry, I pushed the wrong button. And I want you guys engaging. Show me in the Bible where the apostles went to the hospitals and cast demons out everywhere if they didn't do it. Why are you expecting demon slayers to do it? Wait a second. Sweetheart? I'm not sure. There's a man and a female in there. I'm not expecting you said the demon slayers. I'm not expecting the demon slayers or any exorcists to go to the hospitals and do so. I expect them to go to the streets. Because where did Paul go? Where did Peter go? Where did John go? And you know what's going to happen? Do you know what's going to happen when you go out there and people see you are literally and legitimately casting out demons? You know what's going to happen? Well, the reason why Jesus says, don't tish, hush, keep it quiet, keep it quiet. Why? Because they'll come flocking to you. They'll come flocking to you. Those that are in distress will come flocking to you. One of the best things I've ever noticed, one of the greatest things that I noticed was we had this old, they would consider kind of a boring service. It wasn't a boring service because we had fun emotionally charged and so forth with the word. Started off with a small service and it just grew and grew and grew and grew and grew and grew. You know why? Because people on the yard, this is in prison, people can see people's lives being changed. And it was a difference. No longer walking with shanks. Guys who had no longer wanted to fight. Guys who were racist. When I say racist, I'm talking about airing brotherhood. Blood in, blood out. And then after we gave them the gospel, those kind of demons getting cast out. Now, they hate every in word, every other word out their mouth blood in, blood out. They can't leave without some blood being spilled. They renounced that and they'll sit arm in arm hugging other black folks or Hispanic folks. Or what about someone who wants to be a transgender? Who, as a matter of fact, even started the process, got breasts on him and said, you know what? I want Jesus being delivered. Is that a demon? You bet it is. Was a demon cast out? You bet it was. How? By Jesus. Won't he do it? So, stop saying that you are oppressed or you're going through it and you want to be free and you're not going through or to the person that actually does a thing. Just because someone says Jesus just because someone says God does not mean that person is of us. Think about it. Satan would be stupid if he didn't equip his false teachers, his false apostles to say the same thing or to have the same lingo that we do. Of course he would. He comes, as the Bible says, as an angel of light. But you cannot tell me that having this strong man in us means that we can also have a demon in us. Because my question would be to all of you who disagree, if you have the Holy Spirit in you but yet you can be demonized, what in the world is the Holy Spirit doing? That's a Holy Spirit and this may even sound black but that's a spirit we don't need. That's a weak Holy Spirit. That's a feckless Holy Spirit. That's a Holy Spirit that's not on his job. But that's not the Holy Spirit that we have. We have a Holy Spirit that will defend us, that will keep us, that will protect us and cause us to walk in. We have a brand new heart. We are a new creation. We can't be touched. That's literally what the Bible says. Does Cory practice deliverance? Yes I do. You know how? By preaching the gospel. Here's why. And I've challenged every single one of these demon slayers, exorcists, whomever it is. Give me one example of a person having the Holy Spirit in them and also having a demon. Give me one example. What did you say? You said in an older video if they're so annoying, why don't they go to the hospitals and heal? Yeah they should. I'm not saying you have to. I'm not saying you have to, but why not? Let me ask you a question. Did Jesus or Paul or Peter ever go to where the sick were? Or do you think they had Jerusalem Community Hospital? Is that what you think? Do you guys think they had hospitals like we have a day then? They did not. Stop that please. It's like saying did Jesus go to the movie theater? They didn't have the movie theater. But they did have places where the sick were and they went. Where did Jesus go? There was a man who had been lame and there was a pool there. Who was there? Dear friend. You all tell me in the chat. Who was at that location where this lame man was or in because they thought that there were healing powers in this pool? Who was there? Who do you all think were there? Sick people. Where did the sick people kind of date? There. Where did Jesus go? There. So stop saying guys that you don't have to go to the hospital. First of all, why wouldn't you? But not just the hospital. Why not go to where the worst are? What you can't do, what you can't do is complain about how demonic the world is. Homosexuality, transgenderism, abortion, murder. You can't complain about it. Taught the fact that you have the ability. One guy who said he's the best at casting demons out in all of America. I won't say his name. You can't doubt how bad it is. You've got the cure and never go do anything about it. You then are horrible. You are a horrible person. You are derelict in your duty. Imagine a firefighter of big fire engine pulls up. House is on fire. Yup, that's a big fire and then pulls off. What would you think of them? What would you think of those people, those firefighters who pulled up, see the fire, had the ability to put the fire out and just leave? I would never call it a matter of fact. They need to be fired. They need to be fired. They certainly aren't good Christians. Good firefighters and those people that say they have the ability to do so, they're not good Christians, are they? We're just going off of their word. Remember, they are the ones who say they do deliverance on 90% or all the time on Christians. They're the ones that says that. I want you to pay attention because I don't think you guys are actually listening to what I say. I'm going to keep this thing going because some folks are going to join in. I said deliverance is biblical. These deliverance ministries are not. Okay? I'm going to keep stressing that. Deliverance is biblical. I want you to see how deliverance is done. Jesus says I've been anointed to set the captives free. Well, did he? If Jesus didn't do it, then now we've got even bigger problem. We've got a Holy Spirit that don't work and a Jesus that lies. Now think about that. A Holy Spirit that don't work and a Jesus that lies. Well, certainly we don't have that, do we? Jesus, I've been anointed to set the captives free, but didn't. Come unto me all you who labor... I'm sorry, let me stay with the King James version. Come unto me all you that labor no, no, Jesus, no, Jesus, no, you're wrong. You're wrong, Jesus, because I've come to you and yet I'm still tormented by demons. Well, one of two things. You didn't come to him or you're not tormented by demons. Listen, somebody's lying. Somebody's lying and I can promise you it ain't Jesus. He says this fully armed guard this fully armed person guards his own house, his possessions are undisturbed. But when someone's stronger than he attacks him and overpowers him, he takes away from him all his armor on which he had relied and distributes his plunder. Couple of things. Couple of things. This works both ways. This works both ways. First of all, is there anybody stronger than the Holy Spirit? Is there anybody strong? Well, no, because the Bible says there's he, the Holy Spirit that's in you, than he that's in the world. So he's greater than any outside influence, isn't he? Secondly, it works also that if he enters the room when the Lord enters the room, what must the demons do? You got to go. So it works both ways. The only problem is they cannot, they cannot come against him. The Bible tells us, as a matter of fact, let me go to a passage in 1 John 5 and this is for you, sweetheart, that you said that you have demons. I want to I want to give you this. I want to give you this. Notice what it says. Whoever believes in Jesus, that he is the Christ, the believing ones in Jesus, they are born of God. Okay? So a believer is born of God. And whoever loves the father loves the child born of him. By this we know that we love the children of God. When we love God, observe his commandments. For this is the love of God that we keep his commandments. For whatever is born of God, like he says, or whoever, is born of God, that person overcomes the world. And this is the victory that overcomes the world, our faith. Our faith is what overcomes the world. That's those are the demons. Now let's go down a little bit further, because we want to see what he says. And I don't want you guys to miss this part in verse 18. Notice he says, we know that no one who was born of God, that's us as believers. If you place your faith in Christ, you are born of God and you are an overcomer. Listen what I'm saying. Latia, I want you to hear what I'm saying. You need to catch this. But he who was born of God keeps him. Now God has not added twice just because it's just not how you would do it in the grammar. But it's the he that keeps him, this terre. He keeps him, and in this word right here, a Utan himself. Notice what John just said. Now remember John walked with Jesus. John knows Jesus. John is born again. John is a believer. He says that he, that's God keeps us himself. Who keeps you? God does. God is the one that keeps you and he says that the one who was born of God I'm sorry sins, but he who was born I'm sorry the one, we know that no one who was born of God sins, but he who was born of God, he keeps him and the devil does not touch him. So the devil or any other demon by proxy does not, cannot touch you. Now, will they come around you and try to attack you and do things to try to frustrate you and frustrate you? Sure. Peter says our enemy, the adversary walks around, goes around like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. Well, there's a bunch of Christians. So it's not like he can't find someone that he wants to devour, but he is seeking whom he may devour. Well, who would he seek after the weak ones? Especially those who will claim that yeah, I've got demons. I'm struggling with demons. The weak ones are the ones he's going after. The professed Christians are the ones that he's going after. If you spent more time in him and in his goodness and what he's done and in the power of him versus not so much focus on what a demon can do. I don't spend, I'd never spend worrying about a demon. Never. Can I ask you guys a question? Maybe this might just make sense to me and not to you. I get that. This is my rationale. But suppose. Suppose. Suppose. Oh, I don't know. I've got I'll be silly for a minute. Let me be silly for a minute. I've got Superman as my neighbor. Clark Kent lives next door. There are some thugs that want to break into my house and beat me up. Should I go a talk to these thugs that want to keep rationalized with them? Hey, listen, could you please not? Or what if I just went to Superman? Hey, Clark, buddy. Who would you think is the best person to get close to? To speak to, to deal with. Should I learn all the ways of the thugs? Yeah, they don't like this. They don't like that. Maybe I should get a gun. Maybe I should get some mace. Get a big dog. But there's Clark Kent. Spiritually speaking, you got these demons and you got Jesus. Who do you want to spend time cozying up to? This is what I'm talking about. I love you, bro, but you're spiritually ignorant and unexperienced in the area of casting out demons. You're doing exactly what the scribes did, trying to analyze it. No, I'm not. And see this one talking about. I just, I can, I tell you what, you tell me how much it would cost for you to fly here to Dallas. I'll pay half, I'm not paying your whole cost, but I'll pay half your cost. You come out here and we'll go on the streets and let's see. Fair offer? Fair offer. Fair offer? Tell us. Because you guys think that the gospel doesn't deliver it. That shows a lot. That's the part that is really concerning. Why do I say that their gospel is a different gospel? Because their gospel does not put the power in Jesus. They put the power in themselves. They will lay hands on someone and declare that person free, whereas what did Jesus, you mean tell me Jesus didn't set them free? But you laying your hands, that set them free. Okay. Again, give me one example of anybody in the Bible who had the Holy Spirit that had a demon. Give one example. We're not, we're not going to end the broadcast anytime soon. So you got time to type in, you got time to look through the scriptures, type in, type in spirit filled person with a demon in the Bible. Go and find it. Go and find it. Pancho Vila says, sickness can be a spirit. I want to pull up a passage, by the way. I want to pull up a passage James 5 13. You know what James says? Uh oh, where's my dog? My cursor left me. He says, is anyone among you suffering? Now we've covered this before. Is anyone among you suffering? We have taken this too often to mean that it's a physical sickness. Now does that mean that God doesn't heal physically? Sure he does. But that's not what he's speaking of in James 5. Not from James 5, 13, all the way down to 19 and 20. If there, is there anyone among you suffering that means not you, not any of you believers that are suffering, anyone amongst you believers that are suffering. Then he must pray. By the way, we've covered the words that are used here. For suffering and sick and how these words are in many cases, as a matter of fact, one of the words is only used as a emotional, mental, or spiritual suffering. But if any of you among you suffering, and this is spiritually speaking, then he must pray. Is anyone cheerful? He is to sing praises anyone among you sick. Then he must call for the Elves of the Church and they are to pray over him. Anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord prayer offered in faith will restore. That's how you know this is not a physical sickness because if that were the case, how many times of folks with legitimate sure enough faith that we say didn't get healed. Paul prayed for folks to get healed. Peter. It doesn't always work. So it could mean physical healing. It's a sickness. But if it's a spiritual sickness, a lack of salvation, this prayer works 100% of the time. Because he says he will restore and the word restore doesn't mean restore like re-store. The word restore here is so-said, which is the same, and he will save the one who is sick. This word right here, so-said, means preserve to save. Are you with me? So that's literally what the word means. And so in many cases, yeah, and I agree with you. This is a spiritual issue. We war now against flesh and blood. And so clearly what we are dealing with is something spiritual. And how do we deal with something spiritual with the one person who controls the spirit? That would be the Lord. Oh, thank you, brother. The pomp is ultimate. I'm sorry. Thank you for the chat. Yeah, and he does a good job of kind of exposing where they are wrong. He really does. So if a person is to, by the way, I'm still waiting for the example of a person who is full of the spirit that has a demon. Because you would think, you would actually think, because demonic activity is so important and so pervasive, you would think, okay, I got your chest jammed. You would think that Paul or Peter or James or John or somebody after Pentecost, you would think that somebody would have said, guys, you need to go and deliver some people. You need to go cast. Where in the Scripture does Peter, Paul, James or John preach deliverance ministry type preaching? Have you guys ever seen that? Have you ever seen anywhere in the Bible where someone is telling somebody, because you never see, you never see them teaching them how to deliver? I heard one guy say, well, because it was so obvious and so prevalent, well, we see Paul teaching. Paul is an apostle to the Gentiles. The Gentiles haven't seen this. The Gentiles are not familiar with people having demons cast out, because where were Jesus with and the disciples with, they were with the Jews. So they didn't see this. They never told them how to do it. They never even told them to do it. What they did tell them instead was to share the gospel. That saves. If the word deliverance means in the Greek to save, and we want to save people, well, then what do you do? Bring them the Lord Jesus to the front and center. Introduce them to the only one that can save them. And so when someone's going to say, wait a second, wait a second, wait a second. What about, here's some people that had a demon and they were Christian. What about someone will say Peter, which by the way is silly. Peter did not have a demon. Jesus said, get behind me, Satan. You notice what Jesus did not say? Jesus did not say get behind me, the Satan. And I'm using the Greek. Yes, I'm still using Greek. He didn't use He didn't use the definite article. By the way, the difference in the Bible, when you use the definite article with Satan, you're referring to the devil. But when you use it without it, you're referring to someone who was kind of in leagues with or working with or doing the bidding of someone who is a deceiver, someone who is misled, not necessarily on that team, but that's how he's of Peter. Because you don't have any idea what you're doing. You're not taking advantage or you're not involved in what the Lord is trying to do. I'm going to die. Peter said, no, he wants to review him. Peter didn't have a demon. And think about the implications of that. If Peter did have a demon. If Peter did have a demon, well then how come Jesus didn't cast a demon out? He cast out every other demon, every other demon that saw Jesus recognized that it was Jesus. Which, by the way, I want to get to this other point about Jesus casting demons out because there's this notion that Jesus took time to cast demons out. You see some of these guys, they're constantly saying, get out, get out, get out, get out, get out. And they're saying, well no, Jesus had to keep casting demon out. We're going to deal with that in a second. So you guys make sure I don't forget that point. But then they say, Peter, what about, what about Judas? Judas was a Christian. Judas was saved. And not only that, he lost his salvation. And he had, he was demon possessed. Well I think, I think a demon did possess him. The Bible says a demon entered him. So, that part I do agree with. But the question is, was he, was he ever a believer? Well, let's find out. Let's go to Judas. And I want you to hear what Jesus says about the disciples as opposed to Judas. This is where Jesus was washing their feet. Peter said to him, never shall you wash my feet, Jesus. Jesus answered him and said, if I do not wash you, you have no part with me. So in other words, if I don't wash you, you have no part with me. Jesus has been saying, you have to be washed by him. Now, we're told that we're washed by the, we're saved by the sprinkling and the washing of our hearts, the regeneration of our hearts according to Paul and Titus. And then earlier in the Old Testament we talked about how the water he's going to take our hearts and clean it with water. But now let's continue. He says, if I don't wash you, you have no part with me. Simon Peter says, Lord, then wash only my feet, but also my hands and my feet. Not only me. Jesus said to him, notice what Jesus says. He who has bathed needs only to wash his feet. This word here Luluminus, which is the perfect tense of this word to have been bathed or been cleansed. He says, they have been washed. You have already been washed. You've already been cleansed. Notice what he says, he who has been washed, that's his word, Luluminus needs only to wash his feet. But it's completely clean. You are completely clean. You are wholly clean. Notice the distinction though. And you are clean, but not all of you. So who hasn't been cleaned? Who hasn't been washed? For he knew the one who was betraying him for this reason he said, not all of you are clean. So guess who was not saved? Stop saying Judas was saved, but he had a demon. He had a demon without question. But guess what? He was never saved. Well, what about Ananias and Sapphira? Wait a minute, you mean tell me two things. One, the verb is used not to indicate that they were even possessed. But let's say this. One, what we don't know is they were ever saved, because when we go to their passage in chapter 5 of Acts, it's distinct from the previous set of people. I'm not not Acts 5, I'm sorry. What's that? Is it one? Yeah, I'm sorry, Acts 5. But if you look at Acts 5, notice how it starts off with but. So we've got a transition. We've got a contrast. Who is Ananias contrasted with? Ananias is contrasted with all those Christians who had everything in common. But Ananias, this other guy, is it possible that somebody could have called themselves part of the brethren but not been? Is it possible that a person can say they're a Christian and not be? Sure. Just like Ananias. But then here's the other great implication. You mean tell me if Ananias and his wife were both demon possessed? Through no fault of their own, they're demon possessed. Demon shows up. What does Peter do? You gotta die. Not cast a demon out. Not cast not cast a demon out like you would so not only do you not cast a demon out you also die and go to hell. So the demon calls you to die and with your salvation. Does that make any sense? Is that biblical? It's certainly in Godly. So we don't have any and notice, by the way, notice this. Once the last people group received the Holy Spirit no one has a demon cast out or no demon being cast out is mentioned. There's never a mention of a demon being cast out after the last people group of Acts 19 received the Holy Spirit. What does that imply? What does that tell you? Once the Holy Spirit is there that's it. Again no man can come and remove him. There's no strong man to come out. Sancturines 12.7 is a messenger of Satan. Not a demon. I'm not sure what you're asking. Are you asking if he was possessed by a demon? No, he was not. We don't even know what the affliction of Paul had. Was it something physical? We don't know. Does Satan come after us? Sure. A messenger of Satan to torment us to afflict us? Sure. The devil does come. Without question. The devil is going to keep coming after you and after you and after you. Why would he not? He needs to spoil your witness. Yeah he can't keep us from getting to heaven but he can keep us from being effective in using the gospel to bring other folks. That's his job. That's his job. It may very well have been his eyesight. We don't know. The Bible doesn't say so what we can't do is we can't read into it. Again, for sure, whatever God said not what we think he said not what we hoped he said or not what he did not say. We don't know what the issue was with Paul. We know Paul wasn't demon possessed. That part we know. If Paul was demon possessed I pity all of us. I pity all of us. So, we don't have any examples of any Christians in the Bible being possessed. We don't have any examples of any person with the Holy Spirit being possessed. We know what Jesus said he came to do. Now, I want to do this. I want to talk about true power versus no power because here's the problem there are people there are people who simply only want a show. Some of you folks only want to be showed what you think is a sign. Okay, hold on one second. Someone asked me a question. Please refer to I'll come back to this in question in a little bit, Samuel. You said something about Jesus in a second. But some people only want to see a sign or to see what they think is a sign. This is the fact that the doctrine of the person who brings a sign isn't any good. The fact that you saw a sign showed me a sign. The sign is good enough but the doctrine of the sign wasn't nothing. Which is interesting. How come everybody and I mean everybody that's in these these deliverance ministries they all have faulty doctrine which again is why they do not want to come on board and have this doctrinal conversation. I promise you they just do not hold up well. They will go and retreat to comfort places. Places where they believe like-minded. For example I'm going to mention his name I hate to mention his name because I didn't want to but if you are in the deliverance ministry and you go to Sid Roth. Well then that's not really a place where you're being challenged. You're not really being challenged on Sid Roth. But you've got enough power in you. You mean to tell me you couldn't come talk to a little old Cory Minor. He ain't got no power he ain't say probably he don't know the power of the Holy Spirit. You can talk to me you can go to someone else's platform. You can go someplace else and have a conversation. You never see that. There's one or two guys out there and they just look horrible when they do it. You give them something and they just they dance around the passages and so forth which is fine. Even people who don't know can be bold sometimes and so you see that sometimes but you've got people who will see what they think is a sign and they get so happy because you saw a sign and you shout it. You saw a magic trick and you shout it. That's exactly what the most immature segment of our society does you know children. When they see something when they see a show a sign or something they get happy they shout ooh and ah that's what they do because they're immature and guess what as long as you do a good job of presenting a show a sign you'll have an audience you'll keep having an audience. As a matter of fact they'll keep coming back but guess what you got to keep doing every time they keep coming back you got to keep giving them that same show keep giving them those signs as a matter of fact they've got to become more spectacular the next week. Why do you think when you see in these deliverance ministries you see them doing all these different shenanigans and they just get they increase in their intensity they become more fantastic kicking their feet waving their arms dancing and so forth shimming that's how we cast out demons now. Okay why because you got to put on a show listen the circus can come in town and folks for about a week or so will come and watch the circus but after about a week or so the circus has to pack up and leave town why because after about a week folk get tired of seeing a monkey dance folks get tired of seeing clowns move around but if you keep on putting on a show and increasing it doing more and more you keep people coming especially if you entice them with prizes or if you scare them that's what's happening am I a cessationist no I'm not I am not a cessationist I am a biblical continuations and I've told folks even those who are cessationists I've said to them I don't think you need to be a cessationist I believe all you have to do is if a person says they have to get the prophecy well guess what test with the scriptures you prophesied this is going by the way have you noticed a lot of these saying people who cast out demons have given prophecies and I've given examples of these prophecies that were given and didn't come to be true well if the prophecies didn't come to be true why are you still listening to them they live and called it and said it was God well Cory what about you don't believe in healings sure God can heal and will heal you say you got the gift of healing if you have the gift of healing according to Paul in Romans 12 we'll get the healing whatever your gift is we'll get to using it as Paul says you can't find a place to heal somebody well then fine go to hospitals go to the nearest pool of Bethesda and get the healing go to the street corners get the healing you got the gift of tongues fine your tongues need to look exactly like they looked in the Bible not your own version of tongues well God is doing a new thing no he's not you're a liar God is not doing a new thing so no I'm not a sensation I'm a biblical continuation now have I seen the gifts in the Bible just like that today no I haven't but I won't say they won't happen it's just when you say they do happen in the Bible otherwise as Paul says in 1 Corinthians 14 hush be silent yeah that that whole thing God is doing a new thing as though the old thing that he was doing is no good and by the way when he said he's doing a new thing he was talking to Israel about what he's going to do he did that so he's not doing anything new for us that is to say this is why it's on the front to say that what he did wasn't good enough he's got to do some more now we got a problem this is why it becomes another gospel because the gospel that we have where Jesus has delivered us is not enough it's not enough we need more we need this person to lay hands on us to wave his hands to give us a throw up bag so we can vomit the devils out of us the demons out of us but I want to know I want to point something out to you to the folks that believe that you have to you have to see these signs by the way by the way what did Jesus say about those that want to seek sign a wicked and unrighteous generation they seek after sign he says unless you people see signs and wonders you simply will not believe well there are some deliverance ministries that say that the gospel comes with signs and wonders that person is ignorant of the scriptures someone said earlier that I'm ignorant of the spirit fine would you say that I'm also ignorant of the scriptures the person is still in the chat would you say that I'm also ignorant of the spirit how am I and he keeps saying I'm ignorant of this of this topic I just told you do you know how many people and I won't say a number because I'm not going to sit and brag do you know how many people that I've preached to came to Christ and are living that way is that not deliverance see I'm saying that's deliverance you're saying it's not you're telling me sir or ma'am I'm not sure if you are by the way are you a man or a woman I'd like to know can you tell me if being saved is being delivered and are you going to say that these are the folks in the chat who are Christians who are saved they haven't been delivered is that what you're going to tell me you're going to tell me those folks that left homosexuality those folks who left transgenderism yes those folks who left the murdering life I know some killers I'm not a killer but I run with some you mean tell me they weren't delivered the guys that actually had demons other folks that were cutting themselves that were banging their heads in the walls and by giving the gospel they placing faith in Christ you're going to tell me they weren't delivered but yet I'm inexperienced I can promise you I've never seen any of the folks that you tout do that same thing why because they put the power in themselves I put the power not on me but on Christ I've never delivered anybody never you're right so you're right I'm inexperienced when it comes to deliverance by the way how many times did Jesus cast out demons in the Bible did anybody know did anybody know how many times that Jesus cast out demons in the Bible the actual answer is all of them every demon that's ever been cast out it's been Jesus but how many times does the Bible account Jesus stopping in casting a demon out not saying well people were brought to him and were cast out no that's just being this is what he just did there but the thing is about depending upon how you count it it can be between 7 and 10 times what was Jesus' message that salvation has come permanently that was Jesus' message what would you see you guys get up and go and put on your nice duds get your good big Bibles out go sit in these auditoriums and listen to someone talk about demons and so forth and then you manifest whereas come to my church or some of the other folks' churches or come to this channel and folks have your man okay good some folks conduct themselves with self control can I ask you self ATL and anyone else if a person has the Holy Spirit will they have self control or not with the scriptures they have self control a person without self control might be indicating one of the not either very good Christian or not a Christian at all but a Christian is going to have self control being used with the Holy Spirit the Holy Spirit brings about self control it's a gift it's a fruit or a carposs a result of having the Holy Spirit in you which is why over here which is why over here ATL nobody in the chat is manifesting that's because you don't believe in it but me believing in it or not believing that having anything to do with what that person is doing at home monkey moves let me ask you a question are you manifesting right now CG Sheila Chess Chat Lisa are you guys manifesting right now I need to know Chau are you manifesting right now Deacon let's do the YouTube way Chassi if you're manifesting put on one of the Rashaan are you manifesting CG says nope I'm chilling TT not me I know it's I hate that word too but you mean tell me none of you guys are manifesting you know what wait a minute the reason why you guys are not manifesting is because I don't believe in Christians having demons that's the only reason why that didn't even make sense does it what does that have to do with what does that have to do with you when you're by yourself nothing you know what was going on in your life last night night before I would want listen you ever seen those little videos what have you or shows you're like I want what he's drinking I want what she's drinking I want what he has I want that don't you want what we have he says manifesting the Holy Spirit I give you that but I give you that I give you that don't you want ATL ATL don't you want what we have I manifested no but I want to show you something because this isn't a first time thing see anybody can have a gospel that looks like it's actually a gospel but it's not a gospel it's not a gospel but it can look godly look like it's of God you all recall in let's go to it in first king chapter 18 we got a guy named Elijah who's getting ready to have some fun so that's what I'm doing I'm having fun at the expense of the demon cast or outers I've never slayed a demon the Lord does now so Ahab sent a message among all the sons of Israel and brought the prophets together at Mount Carmel Elijah came near all the people and said how long will you hesitate between two opinions let me ask you this question you folks that are inclined to believe the demon possessors how long will you hesitate between two opinions if the Lord is God then follow him if Belle be God then follow him then follow Belle if you want to sit and succumb to this foolishness and I call it foolishness where you are bound by a demon well fine stay there if that's what you want stay there but you don't have to because if God is God follow him follow him because there's freedom there's liberty in the Lord where the spirit of the Lord is there is liberty I'm not making this up this is Bible and look what he does he calls on them to listen show your God of show show what you're doing now the reason why I'm bringing up Belle is what do they do he gets them to put on this experiment and those what happens verse 25 so Elijah said to the prophets of Belle choose one ox for yourselves and prepare it first for you um I'm sorry it first for you are many and call the name of your God put it under fire put a fire on it then they took the ox which was given them and they prepared it and called on the name of Belle from morning until noon saying oh Belle answer us but there was no voice and no one answered so now he goes to mocking them what do they do towards the end so they cried out even more so verse 28 they cried out with a loud voice and cut themselves according to their customs with sores and lances until the blood gushed out of him the reason why I bring this up these people these prophets of Belle did they believe what they were doing question on the floor ladies and gentlemen do you believe the prophets of Belle literally believed what they were doing they surely did they bought into it hook line the sinker so myself they're cutting themselves they bought into they they dedicated devoted their lives to being these prophets of Belle by the way was also lucrative for the time being until they died but they believed it they absolutely believed it which tells us something you can serve a false God with false signs and really believe it but it still not be true because what happened all those prophets they were killed so you can have someone had who it sounds like this person they're preaching the same gospel they preach Jesus they they believe it and the folks that listen to them they believe it that mean thing if the Jesus you preach is a Jesus that can't keep you you didn't preach Jesus if the Jesus you preach is a Jesus that doesn't set you free indeed like Jesus says you weren't free indeed because you don't have the right Jesus what do you mean there's only one Jesus I know but apparently there might be another one another Jesus running around here that tells you you can be saved partially not all the way yeah that's a different gospel you need to you need to get on this flight sign up for this conference come here sit through all the singing and dancing the scriptures the preaching and when I say something manifest that's what I need you to do how much time in Africa be saved if we just if you all even demon-slaying people just go to different cities have a tour we're not going to meet at a church we're going to take the church outside in the neighborhoods and we're going to go and cast out demons how cool would that be see my questions are pretty simple they're pretty simple they're pretty straightforward and when I challenge these folks they never they never respond now by the way and they'll hear about it they can respond hey Corey how are you I am fine Jalen Jackson how are you they never respond to me directly you don't have to respond to me directly you don't have to come talk to me at all say for $89 monthly subscription what you could do is just address these things for example one of the things that I'm going to address I've addressed this before but I'll address it now when we talk about how Jesus did they have to keep come out come out come out come out Jesus didn't do that wait a second Jesus did Jesus kept telling them to come out there are these stubborn demons that may take a long time okay let's see that let's compare this account that happened in Luke as well as in Mark in Mark let's go to Mark 5 Jesus comes in contact with this who is this let's start in verse 1 they came to the other side of the sea into the country of garrisons when he got out of the boat Jesus immediately a man from the tombs with an unclean spirit met him and he had his dwelling among the tombs and no one was able to bind him anymore even with the chain because he had often been bound with shackles so it's the same account that we're going to talk about now drop down verse 6 seeing Jesus from a distance he ran up and bowed down before him now why did I go there because in verse 6 seeing Jesus from a distance he ran up and bowed he just said that previously didn't he verse 2 when he got out of the boat immediately a man from the tombs with an unclean spirit met him so it's the same account right verse 2 and it's important verse 2 and verse 6 say the same thing what business and he says to him because all he does is he's recounting the person that's telling the story in this case Mark is recounting in two different places the same thing that mean that he ran to him twice now continue verse 7 and shouting with the loud voice he said what business do we have with each other Jesus son of the most high so they always recognized the Lord for he had been saying to him come out of the man you unclean spirit now some are going to say well see Jesus is constantly saying he's been saying come out Jesus has been saying come out and I understand the English says so the English might imply but that's what he's saying however that's not what he's saying this word could be taken could be taken that Jesus was continuously saying it could be taken that way this word elegane could be taken that way or it could be taken that he had said in the past in the summary because Jesus has said come out Jesus says come out one time let's see if I can make that point compare this passage with another account the exact same account of Jesus doing this verse 20 let's start in verse 28 Jesus seeing I'm sorry seeing Jesus he cried out and failed before him and said in the loud voice what business do we have with each other Jesus also the most high so we see the same state the same instance the same torment me for he had commanded the unclean spirit to come out of the man and the word that's used here this word command is the heiress tense one time that Jesus command would come out one time when someone tells you that Jesus was constantly saying come out come out not according to the Greek I know I know you thought that I was really serious about not using the Greek no I'm going to use the Greek because it makes it clear because here we have in the past verses he keeps telling well the keep telling he was calling or calling him out is a little hard to understand but when we compare with the other passage it's clear one time was he told he told him he had commanded him to come out now so there is no keep coming out keep coming out keep coming out keep coming out no Jesus is not going to spend four hours with a stubborn demon they obey him they know who he is I need you're right I need to get the Greek warning back I'm sorry I'm going to bring it back I actually deleted it inadvertently I actually deleted it I'm sorry I got to fix it but when you listen to these people that want to tell you that you can have a demon I can promise you that it is to their advantage it is to their benefit it is advantageous to them to do so why because if you can have a demon and you need someone to help you cast it out or to teach you how to cast it out they stay in business I don't teach you or tell you anything that you need me of matter of fact if you and I'm going to talk about this later on guys but what's better give a man a fish or teach him how to fish I don't you have no need of me whatsoever so I'd much rather say hey this is how I think you ought to read the bible this is my way of doing it do it utilize it see the scripts for yourself and then also share it what's the motto love it learn it live it that's go out and do likewise share the gospel share the word of God if we want to regroup and converse about what's the script say fine you don't need me for anything you don't need me for a thing if I died and went away you didn't need me you didn't miss out on anything we just fellowshiped but they want to have you as though you need them to hear what they say and so you got these folks that are that really have bought into the fact that all their problems are demonic snoring is demonic knuckle cracking that's that's demonic autism is demonic someone even said being sexually assaulted that's demonic that's a demon even so much they'll teach you that you are being sexually assaulted by a demon that that's out of the scripture so because think about this for a second no one invites these people to now they get invited all over the place they nail bodies one of them they get invited all over the country to come speak but no one ever invites them to come and give them doctrine no no one ever invites them to I've never seen anyone now I might be wrong no one invites them hey can you come and splice the word up for it I've never seen that see their doctrine and maneuverability is in the word in the word is bad they don't do a very good job so much so that now they'll follow a couple people who have degrees Sam stones who even the place you got his degree from they don't go ask him to go back to the seminary and to and to sell this to them they don't know they didn't really disagree matter fact it goes against their their statement of belief the one that he signed on to he can't he can't back it up he gives his opinion but he can't back it up he can't he can't find an example of someone having a demon with a spirit and he's a doctor but he's a Greek scholar no he's not a Greek scholar he's a scholar but it's not in Greek Dr. Michael Brown who will constantly I don't care he will he will at times I would say constantly will at times throw something out there and then leave you have to come back and realize hey what you just said isn't correct he does that he will do that now I don't know if he believes in this I've heard some that he did he disagreed now he doesn't believe I don't know but he can't no one can find an example of a Christian having a demon do demons attack Christians come at Christians sure most notably when Christians are around non-christians the non-christian can have a demon the non-christian can have a demon and so if I'm if I'm the devil if I'm plotting and I see that Jenae is a Christian and Bob is not then guess what Bob I got a job for you to do go mess with Jenae matter of fact Frank and Earl and Johnny and Marie all of you all go make Jenae think she's losing her mind that can happen because we are she enough peer pressure makes us think that we're losing our minds it must be me when it's that it must be me consider who it is that you're dealing with if these folks are unsafe and are demonic in their actions then it's probably not you so I'm just asking for them to give proof if anyone tells you thank you Styles Brown says that all you gotta do is draw close to him but that can't that's not correct though that can't that can't be the case he says draw near to him resist the devil and he will flee that's literally what the word says $2 super chat for not having slow-mo on when I needed it off I don't know why you guys don't like slow-mo I know it is though you guys you need to cast that slow-mo demon out questioning popular opinion Cori he said you are fighting the spiritual by physical means is believing in Jesus for deliverance and believing he can protect you not spiritual it certainly is it's the definition of I don't know why they think that they think that we are not about the spirit no I think what it really is we trust more in the spiritual than they do we trust more in Christ than they do we really believe listen I really believe that when I had a problem I had so much faith in my father my daddy my earthen father I had so much faith in him that anytime someone did anything to me I'm gonna tell him I'm telling my father I believe my daddy could kick your daddy's tail in a minute I believe my daddy can beat up any goblin or any boogeyman I just believe my daddy and whatever I wanted my daddy to get me I just believe my daddy I had that much trust in him a man why wouldn't I have even more trust in my heavenly father I've got trust that he will keep me I got trust that his word meant what he said it meant that's what I believe you you said it and I agree you said it and I agree they get mad and say things like I'm always talking about them I think somebody said I got like 30-40 videos on one particular guy I've got 11 videos on it and every time I do a video on one of these guys it's something different I'm not gonna cover the same thing it's something different and they don't refute it they'll say we're just hating what do they do they go to other people to get them to say that that guy's hating okay defend your doctrine the problem with Christian the problem with Christian today is that they do not spend the time that's it they do not spend the time reading the Bible they spend all their time looking for videos and following men instead of the word amen amen amen Kendrick James thank you for the super sticker child this is your better super chat not the one where you were criticizing my slow mode and you also were included in Christ when you heard the message of truth or salvation when you believe you were marked in him with the seal the promise of the Holy Spirit that can't be true though that can't be true you weren't really sealed at least it wasn't a tight seal because demons can still get in there oh but wait someone said answer J's example so he can okay so let's go look up J uh oh I can't type I do agree do I agree that Christians can be oppressed by demons not in the sense of the word that's used in the Bible that other folks were oppressed because the word that means that means to be demonized or possessed is the same as oppressed same thing uh no Christians can't but now can Christians have a have a demonic encounter sure can a demon target Christians they sure do that that is their job a demon's job is to go after Christians okay a Christians job is to go after Jesus how about we put that on a t-shirt a demons job is to go after Christians a Christians job is to go after Jesus is that would you Roshan would you call it you're young enough would that be bars is that a such thing as bars I like that a demons job is to go after Christians a Christians job is to go after Jesus and then everything is set You're fine. You're good once you do that as James says you draw closer to him than what happens to the demon You know what? I can't go over there. You're out of bounds for the demon that you you are literally in and out of bounds with a demon he can he Where's the Bethel church now where they do the little staff you shall not pass Once you come to Christ you shall not demon. Sorry. He has to flee a man spider monkey. He has to flee It really guys it really literally is that simple Why did Jesus teach his disciples to cast out demons if it's not needed? Are you saying casting out demons as a part of the gospel? Or is it or is the gospel and cast out demons separate a couple questions? Couple questions first of all When Jesus taught his disciples to cast out demons can I ask you a question ATL? By the way, are you still here? I need to make sure you're still here ATL So I want to make sure I want to have a conversation with you. I Want to have a conversation with you. I want to see if you can if you can help us out Okay So here's a question ATL or anyone else Wet what scripture would you go to to point out Jesus? Teaching them to cast demons out Where is the path? Okay? He's still here. Where is the passage located where Jesus taught them how to cast out demons? And I'm going somewhere with this Where is the passage? That show that where Jesus taught them how to cast out demons now Did Jesus teach them how to pray? sure Where they taught where people taught how to well, they didn't have to be taught out of fast They were told they were told the reason why to fast Because it's understood what a fast is but when they talk to pray sure Now Jesus did give them authority over demons But didn't tell him how he didn't tell him how to exact that how to do that Jesus didn't say do this do this do that do that. He didn't did he say that he didn't do that did he? So that's one he never said do it this way, which is why I ask the question Where are the Gentiles who never saw this? Where are they shown or even told to do it? They're not even told to do it secondly What's happening with the church at that time atl What was the condition of the church when Jesus was was sending them out and gave them abilities over demons What was the condition of the church at that does anyone know what was the condition of the church? When Jesus gave and or gave them authority over unclean spirits What was the condition of the church? Can anybody tell me? Hmm that that it's important is vitally important that we understand this as well What was the condition of the church? Might you might scratch your head on this question You might scratch your head, of course, let me think about this for a second Coriwood, huh? What was the condition? No, it wasn't beginning. It wasn't new a Renee got it right. There was no church. We had no church We had no church Hadn't started just yet It had not started yet when Jesus sends out the the disciples in the 70 or 72 No No church Why is that important? Well, how many demons can we think of that were cast out before Jesus's incarnation? ATL How many demons does the Bible speak of being cast out before? Jesus's incarnation another question. This all this all goes together. By the way ATL keep coming back, brother I love you. Do we see this being talked about in the Old Testament? See, okay, let me how do I mark dog on it? I want to finish answering your question and then go to your next question Are you saying casting out demons is a part of the gospel after the gospel is preached? And the Holy Spirit comes we don't see anyone Casting out demons or telling those of Catholic every time when every people group receives the Holy Spirit There's no more demons being cast out Acts 19 that was it last people group to receive the Holy Spirit What about Acts 21? What about? There is no acts 30, but still what about 1st, 2nd Corinthians? What about Philharmonic? What about what about Colossians? What about Galatians? No, no, no demonic. No, no, no now we're tall. We're told about Demonic activity, but no more casting demons out. Are you serious? Why are you being analytical? What you call analytical? I call being biblical. I'm literally talking about the Bible. I'm literally talking about the Bible Why are you being so unbiblical? I'm literally going to the Bible Why are you being being analytical? Why would Jesus tell his disciples to cast out demons but not teach them or show them how? Because I'm going somewhere. I just want you I want you to look to actually Run through the scriptures think about them. There's a reason why I'm doing this Assume I have good modes assume that I might be able to Prove a point if a person receives Christ by the way What what could they not do at the time of Jesus's when Jesus was on the earth? When Jesus walked the earth during his earthly ministry What could the people not get so let's say Jesus cast a demon out Let's say Peter cast a demon out The person that had the demon in them and was gone What could they not have at that moment? They couldn't have the Holy Spirit. Could they? Thank You Steven the Holy Spirit was there but not for them to receive at that moment When would they be able to receive the Holy Spirit? After Jesus's departure ascension and then the coming of the Holy Spirit So during Jesus earthly ministry He gives them the ability to cast out demons why so people can know that Jesus is real and then come to him And then what was gonna happen? They are going to be set free indeed If you have the son you are set free indeed How do you have the son? Well, you have the spirit if you don't have the Holy Spirit you don't have Jesus So we're not being analytical. We're being bitter. We're going to the scripture to see what's happening here at this particular Dispensation we've got Jesus literally walking on the earth Prior to prior to Jesus ministry We don't see this issue of them being told how to or that they should cast out demons Was there demonic act was there demonic activity prior to Jesus's ministry sure there was Sure So we're seeing what Jesus is trying to do But again, it's so and it's so important that no one has ever taught how to do it No Gentiles and and oh by the way the Gentile church soon as we get into Romans matter of fact before we get into Romans at the end of Acts The Jewish church is not as large as the Gentile makeup of the church The Gentile portion of the church is now far larger than the Jewish part of the church and If demonic influences so bad Why doesn't Peter? Why didn't Or let's just put on the screen Let's go. Let's go ask Peter for a second. How about we do this? Let's ask Peter Peter in chapter 5 of First Peter He says Therefore humble yourself under the mighty hand of God that he may exalt you at the proper time casting all your anxiety on The young lady that was dealing with she says she was dealing with demonic oppression fine Casting all your anxiety on him because he cares for you Be of sober spirit be alert Your adversary the devil Prows around like a roaring lion seeking someone to devour but what does he say? ATL he says resist him firm in your faith knowing that the same experience of Sufferings are being accomplished by your brethren who are in the world now question How many devils are there? There's just one so wherever he would all the other people that are being affected They're not necessarily being affected specifically personally by the devil but by his demons and So what does he say? resist him Just like James says resist him and Put your focus on Christ as he says he says be on alert But just in case you all succumb to him We're gonna cast demon out. No, no, no mention of demons being cast out here no mention Once the gospel is preached we don't see anyone talking about demons anymore What we do see them talking about is the proliferation or the desire to have the gospel proliferated Throughout the world Preach the gospel preach the word preach the word preach the word Now if you want to have this Infatuation and this desire this reliance on demons fine Brother have at it Demon demon demon demon all day long gets you a tattoo a demon tattoo do all of those things if you want to But now if you want to if you want to be delivered if you want folks to be delivered Give them a gospel Don't come back in and by the way by the way And thank you in that for the super chat by word is a lamp to my feet and I like a man Those people that we know for a fact were delivered The folks that wanted to kill somebody Deliver from that desire to want to kill was that a demon sure the homosexual the transgender They got delivered from that was that a bit? Yeah the extremely racist part people Just the people who's going to job on the nine to five and struggling Don't want their marriage is struggling with their with alcoholism with drugs and so forth My mother Struggling with drugs is that a demon? Yeah place her faith in Christ Yeah, guess what mama didn't struggle with after she came to Christ guess what mama My mother my mom Mommy, I don't call it mommy, but Guess what mama didn't struggle with Guess what mama was delivered from She used to say when even from drugs and alcohol She used to call alcohol in front of the kids grapes son and son. I need to give me some grapes I need to give me she wanted to drink Once she placed her faith in Christ, you know what mama didn't struggle with drugs Was she delivered? So see when you say that I'm inexperienced in this and and also others who don't do this foolishness fine fine I don't know why you would want that but fine it That's what you like if you like see people falling out and have no control and being possessed no press fine But over here we preach of freedom freedom in Christ Liberty You can disagree if you want to that's fine Live your life the way you want to Cory. What would you do if you were encountered by a person possessed by a demon? What would I do exactly what I always do? Do you all think that I don't encounter people like that? I'm not saying you do Jay, but I do and so guess what we don't guess Guess what it is Jesus. I'm I'm sorry. I don't know I push it but I know I know I know where the power lies It's not in somebody who says they has the ability to cast out demons or that's what no Paul says I am not ashamed of the gospel For it is the power of God on the salvation It's not too powerful if it if it leaves person they can come to Christ and be saved but still have to deal with demons You know, I I recognize that it is the power the true power the thorough power the unadulterate power the exact and complete power And so that's what I do when I when I come across someone that is just and I see it Listen, I see it all the time. I see it all the time So what do you do share the gospel with what would you do? Matter of fact more to the point What do the folks that you that not you guys but some of you guys that listen to what do they do? Well, they encounter someone who has a demon nothing nothing Nothing Why do I say so because we never see them they only invite them into their cozy confines come to this church Come to this come this deliverance conference come to this revival The demon inside the person, you know, that's a good idea. It's a good idea. I've been controlling this person all day long I've got this person cutting themselves. I got this person doing all kind of sexual stuff I got complete control over this person You know, I think it'd be a good idea for me and my host to go to this deliverance of conference Because what I really want is for that person to get delivered get me delivered from that demon has all that kind of power But we'll then take even logic is divorced now in the New Testament Satan tempted Jesus attack Paul correct Okay, which is what he's gonna do with us. What happened? They resisted them they resisted them so Even when you apply what I'm saying, you'll see it in the scriptures and who and ultimately ultimately who gets the glory I Ultimately who gets the glory God does so guys, I would say this in closing If you want to be delivered if you know someone who wants to be living You don't have to be one of these deliverance ministry people. No, no All you have to do is just give them the gospel if they want the gospel if they place their faith in Christ They'll be delivered if not If not They'll stay in trouble So anyway guys, I have got to run. I will see you all again later this afternoon God willing in the meantime God be blessed and if you want to be delivered stay delivered all you have to do is place your faith in Christ. Amen
