In these deliberate studies of principalities and powers, 3 00:00:15.670 --> 00:00:20.280 we will be exposing the occult, revealing knowledge of the doctrines, words, 4 00:00:20.290 --> 00:00:24.300 rites, eulogies, phrases, and definitions that demon worshippers use. 5 00:00:24.710 --> 00:00:28.720 The only intelligent way to interpret our times is to present a biblical 6 00:00:28.730 --> 00:00:33.260 interpretation. Jesus prophesied that his church shall prevail. 7 00:00:33.570 --> 00:00:36.420 In Matthew 16, verse 18, he said, 8 00:00:36.590 --> 00:00:39.200 Upon this rock I will build my church, 9 00:00:39.210 --> 00:00:42.480 and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. 10 00:00:42.730 --> 00:00:47.420 Today the church must rise up to the greatest action of its entire history. 11 00:01:02.580 --> 00:01:08.380 Thank you, and we are studying possibly one of the 12 00:01:08.390 --> 00:01:13.640 most inspiring series of lessons that would be possible to take 13 00:01:13.650 --> 00:01:17.540 in relation to principalities and powers. 14 00:01:19.070 --> 00:01:22.880 In our deliverance talks, this is called number two. 15 00:01:22.890 --> 00:01:26.960 In our deliverance syllabus, this will be the syllabi number two. 16 00:01:27.150 --> 00:01:32.620 And we are addressing ourselves to lesson number 15 at this time. 17 00:01:32.630 --> 00:01:38.160 And it has to do with demons and disease. 18 00:01:38.730 --> 00:01:44.420 And in your introduction, it begins by telling you that the Bible 19 00:01:44.430 --> 00:01:49.020 does not say, that all disease 20 00:01:49.030 --> 00:01:54.960 is related to demon power, and that will relieve a lot of us of some 21 00:01:54.970 --> 00:02:01.100 tensions in the most dramatic sicknesses such as seizures, 22 00:02:01.220 --> 00:02:06.270 that all disease of any type is not always 23 00:02:06.280 --> 00:02:12.070 reflected in demon power, that there are sicknesses that come to us 24 00:02:12.080 --> 00:02:15.990 from an accident or comes to us from some other reason. 25 00:02:16.140 --> 00:02:18.930 that is not related to demon power. 26 00:02:19.040 --> 00:02:21.770 You should know that the devil does move in on weakness, 27 00:02:21.780 --> 00:02:23.610 that if there's a weakness in a person, 28 00:02:23.620 --> 00:02:26.510 the devil instantly starts to torment that weakness. 29 00:02:26.520 --> 00:02:31.050 But if that person that has suffered this weakness is surrounded with spiritual 30 00:02:31.060 --> 00:02:34.290 strength, the devil has no power to move into that area. 31 00:02:35.080 --> 00:02:40.590 In our lesson number 15, John 10 and 10 is our beginning point 32 00:02:40.600 --> 00:02:44.510 in the biblical reading. 33 00:02:46.030 --> 00:02:48.840 Now, the thief, of course, is the devil. 34 00:02:48.950 --> 00:02:53.280 The thief cometh not, but for to steal and 35 00:02:54.020 --> 00:02:56.630 to kill and to destroy. 36 00:02:56.880 --> 00:03:02.290 Those are three things the devil wishes to do in every society, 37 00:03:02.640 --> 00:03:05.210 in every life, in every home. 38 00:03:05.550 --> 00:03:09.020 He wants to come in to our human persons. 39 00:03:09.250 --> 00:03:13.020 And when he comes in, he wants to steal heaven. 40 00:03:13.130 --> 00:03:16.800 He wants to steal truth. He wants to steal virtue. 41 00:03:16.960 --> 00:03:21.150 He wants to steal every good thing that God gives a human being. 42 00:03:21.360 --> 00:03:24.850 And he isn't satisfied with just taking something. 43 00:03:24.860 --> 00:03:30.410 He wants to kill. He wants to obliterate. He wants the cause to cease. 44 00:03:30.520 --> 00:03:33.310 He wants to take the whole thing away. He wants to kill. 45 00:03:33.880 --> 00:03:38.250 And then he also wants to scatter. He wants to destroy. 46 00:03:38.360 --> 00:03:42.270 He wants to break down. If there's a wall, he says, take it down. 47 00:03:42.660 --> 00:03:45.070 If there's strength, he says, reduce it to nothing. 48 00:03:45.080 --> 00:03:49.900 He is a destroyer. And the same verse, the Lord Jesus said, 49 00:03:49.910 --> 00:03:53.240 I am different from the thief who is the devil. 50 00:03:53.250 --> 00:03:56.480 He says, I am come that you might have life. 51 00:03:56.590 --> 00:04:00.560 So in every aspect of our total being, he is a giver of life. 52 00:04:00.960 --> 00:04:05.410 In your spiritual person, in your family person, in your business person, 53 00:04:05.420 --> 00:04:08.930 he is the giver of life. Say life. Life. 54 00:04:08.940 --> 00:04:12.650 In every department of our lives, he is a giver of life. 55 00:04:12.660 --> 00:04:16.970 He is life. And that you may not only have life, 56 00:04:16.980 --> 00:04:20.550 but you'll have this life more abundantly. 57 00:04:20.600 --> 00:04:25.250 He is the giver of abundant life, not little life, 58 00:04:25.500 --> 00:04:29.510 short -lived life. He is the giver of abundant life. 59 00:04:29.520 --> 00:04:34.890 That means overflowing, like a wave coming off the ocean, 60 00:04:34.900 --> 00:04:38.930 splashing and dashing and covering everything in its way. 61 00:04:38.940 --> 00:04:40.830 He is the giver of life. 62 00:04:42.260 --> 00:04:46.970 Our purpose in this lesson are relative to demons and disease. 63 00:04:47.210 --> 00:04:50.220 Are there some diseases caused by evil spirits? 64 00:04:50.840 --> 00:04:55.150 And this is a question up to tremendous debate in our land, 65 00:04:55.160 --> 00:04:58.590 and the only answer we have is from the Word of God. 66 00:04:58.740 --> 00:05:02.270 The oldest book in the Bible, so we're told, is the book of Job. 67 00:05:02.460 --> 00:05:05.930 So that would be a good place to start, the oldest book in the Bible. 68 00:05:05.940 --> 00:05:08.870 In Job chapter 2, in verse 7, it says, 69 00:05:08.880 --> 00:05:13.010 When Satan went forth from the presence of the Lord, 70 00:05:13.020 --> 00:05:16.470 he smoked Job with sore boils. 71 00:05:16.540 --> 00:05:19.470 from the sole of his foot under his crown. 72 00:05:19.760 --> 00:05:23.820 Now, the Word of God says it, that the devil did it, 73 00:05:23.830 --> 00:05:26.760 that God did not do it, that the devil did it, 74 00:05:26.770 --> 00:05:29.620 and that the devil did it not because Job was a sinner, 75 00:05:29.630 --> 00:05:33.000 but because he was a good man. He was a good man. 76 00:05:33.050 --> 00:05:36.040 You say, but why would God even permit it? 77 00:05:37.630 --> 00:05:41.040 This would increase his faith. It would increase his strength. 78 00:05:41.070 --> 00:05:44.800 It would increase his relationship with God because it proved something, 79 00:05:44.810 --> 00:05:47.800 that he was not serving God for material gain. 80 00:05:48.020 --> 00:05:50.630 He was not serving God because he'd had a lot of blessings, 81 00:05:50.640 --> 00:05:55.210 but that he was serving God because he loved God. 82 00:05:55.420 --> 00:05:58.550 And that was a quarrel between the devil and God. 83 00:05:58.660 --> 00:06:02.170 The devil says, he's only serving you for the benefits. 84 00:06:02.240 --> 00:06:06.210 God said, that is not true. He serves me because he loves me. 85 00:06:06.220 --> 00:06:08.830 He says, smite him and you'll find that you're a liar. 86 00:06:08.840 --> 00:06:12.750 God says, well, in order to prove my point, you may smite him. 87 00:06:12.780 --> 00:06:16.990 But of course, God delivered him from that thing and he became... 88 00:06:17.000 --> 00:06:20.390 greater than he had ever been before with more of everything that he'd ever had 89 00:06:20.400 --> 00:06:26.240 before. And so it is possible for Satan to bring certain things upon a human being 90 00:06:26.250 --> 00:06:28.020 according to the Bible. 91 00:06:28.880 --> 00:06:32.510 Now we go to the New Testament, for this is where you would like to hear, 92 00:06:32.520 --> 00:06:35.970 I'm sure, the greater part of our study. 93 00:06:35.980 --> 00:06:38.410 In Matthew chapter 4 and verse 24, 94 00:06:38.420 --> 00:06:43.170 it says that the fame of Jesus went throughout all Syria, 95 00:06:43.180 --> 00:06:48.700 and they brought... And they brought unto him all sick people, 96 00:06:48.710 --> 00:06:49.710 A -double -L, 97 00:06:50.410 --> 00:06:53.640 that were taken with diverse diseases and torments. 98 00:06:53.770 --> 00:06:56.700 And so people being tormented isn't a new thing. 99 00:06:56.940 --> 00:07:00.110 It isn't a modern disease only. 100 00:07:00.390 --> 00:07:03.880 And now there are millions of Americans today that are being tormented. 101 00:07:04.170 --> 00:07:09.500 Your asylums and institutions of helping people that are 102 00:07:09.510 --> 00:07:11.780 emotionally upset are loaded. 103 00:07:11.840 --> 00:07:14.990 And packed today, and many that want to get in can't even get in. 104 00:07:15.000 --> 00:07:18.390 They have to just come in for help and stay in the home with an attendant. 105 00:07:18.500 --> 00:07:20.730 And so, but it isn't a new thing. 106 00:07:20.740 --> 00:07:24.090 In the days of Jesus, there were not only those that had various, it says, 107 00:07:24.100 --> 00:07:26.130 diverse diseases, but torments. 108 00:07:26.440 --> 00:07:30.430 That was an emotional thing that had no relationship to a body disease. 109 00:07:31.070 --> 00:07:33.460 And those that were possessed with devils. 110 00:07:33.730 --> 00:07:37.140 Now, that was 2 ,000 years ago, and the devil hasn't gone out of business yet, 111 00:07:37.150 --> 00:07:39.620 you know. They were possessed with devils. 112 00:07:39.630 --> 00:07:41.480 And those that were lunatic. 113 00:07:41.530 --> 00:07:45.420 You see, that's where the church gets frightened and falls down. 114 00:07:45.450 --> 00:07:49.500 It's afraid of crazy people. If you pray for them, they don't understand you. 115 00:07:49.510 --> 00:07:53.120 But I want to tell you something. The spirit that's in them understands real well. 116 00:07:53.130 --> 00:07:57.270 You can talk to him. And he can understand exactly what you mean when you say, 117 00:07:57.280 --> 00:07:58.280 get out. 118 00:07:58.420 --> 00:08:02.710 Now, in Matthew chapter 17, beginning in verse 15, it says, 119 00:08:02.720 --> 00:08:04.890 the Lord have mercy upon my son. 120 00:08:05.020 --> 00:08:08.370 This was a father talking, talking to the Lord Jesus. 121 00:08:08.540 --> 00:08:11.490 Lord Jesus, have mercy on my son. He is lunatic. 122 00:08:11.850 --> 00:08:17.930 And he is sore vexed. That meant he was so messed up he didn't know what to do. 123 00:08:18.280 --> 00:08:22.110 His emotions were so gone to pot that he couldn't be normal at all. 124 00:08:22.120 --> 00:08:26.870 He is sore vexed, upset and angry. You know what I'm talking about. 125 00:08:26.880 --> 00:08:30.870 You've possibly seen a lot of it. For oftentimes he falls under the fire. 126 00:08:31.840 --> 00:08:36.050 I've known it of the Satan casting people in many places in my time. 127 00:08:36.920 --> 00:08:40.750 But the thing would throw him into the fire wanting to destroy him. 128 00:08:41.150 --> 00:08:42.780 He throws him into the water. 129 00:08:43.210 --> 00:08:46.000 When he'd get by some water, the thing would just throw him into the water. 130 00:08:46.150 --> 00:08:48.440 Now, this is a father talking of his own son. 131 00:08:49.200 --> 00:08:54.730 And so, I brought him to your disciples, verse 16, but they couldn't cure him. 132 00:08:55.700 --> 00:09:01.450 That is a very sad situation, and it's the same kind of situation that you have 133 00:09:01.460 --> 00:09:03.990 today in the world that we live in today. 134 00:09:04.240 --> 00:09:07.590 And a good thing to you ask preachers when you go around and say, 135 00:09:07.600 --> 00:09:11.450 would you read Matthew 17, 16, and see if you happen to be one of them? 136 00:09:12.460 --> 00:09:15.090 Of course, he may not love you too much after that, but anyway, 137 00:09:15.100 --> 00:09:17.190 you could get an answer of some kind. 138 00:09:18.860 --> 00:09:21.770 Jesus answered and said, O faithless and perverse generation, 139 00:09:21.880 --> 00:09:25.470 how long shall I be with you? He knew he had to go away soon. 140 00:09:25.520 --> 00:09:28.870 How long shall I suffer you? Bring the child hither to me. 141 00:09:29.420 --> 00:09:33.230 Verse 18, Jesus rebuked the devil. You see? 142 00:09:33.290 --> 00:09:35.500 He rebuked the devil. He didn't talk to the child. 143 00:09:35.510 --> 00:09:36.980 He didn't do anything to the child. 144 00:09:36.990 --> 00:09:39.400 He rebuked the spirit that was inside that child, 145 00:09:39.410 --> 00:09:42.340 and he said that immediately that spirit departed out of him, 146 00:09:42.350 --> 00:09:44.780 and the child was cured from that very hour. 147 00:09:45.390 --> 00:09:49.780 Now, Luke talking about either the same or a very similar situation, 148 00:09:49.790 --> 00:09:53.880 possibly the same. It came to pass that on the next day when Jesus came down from 149 00:09:53.890 --> 00:09:57.800 the hill, that meant where they were up on the mountain, 150 00:09:57.810 --> 00:09:59.760 and he was transfigured there before him. 151 00:10:00.400 --> 00:10:03.910 And he and his disciples came back down where the other disciples were. 152 00:10:03.920 --> 00:10:05.110 There were three with him up there. 153 00:10:05.120 --> 00:10:07.930 And there was much people down at the foot of this little hill. 154 00:10:07.940 --> 00:10:10.690 You can still see it every time you go to the Holy Land. 155 00:10:10.700 --> 00:10:12.770 And there's still a village right in the same place. 156 00:10:12.780 --> 00:10:16.830 And there was a man in the company crying out, Master, I beseech thee, 157 00:10:16.840 --> 00:10:20.270 look upon my son, for he is mine only son. 158 00:10:20.300 --> 00:10:25.030 Now at least we find here that Matthew has given us more details than Luke was 159 00:10:25.040 --> 00:10:29.010 giving us. And lo, a spirit taketh him. Now he... 160 00:10:29.090 --> 00:10:31.420 One said it was a devil, the other said it was a spirit. 161 00:10:31.650 --> 00:10:34.160 And he suddenly crieth out. 162 00:10:34.250 --> 00:10:37.660 That means he'll be sitting there peaceful, and then he'll scream like a maniac. 163 00:10:37.890 --> 00:10:42.020 Now, I've been around all these kinds of people, not by ones and twos, by dozens. 164 00:10:42.030 --> 00:10:45.660 I've seen all these kinds of people that exactly this type here. 165 00:10:45.790 --> 00:10:50.140 And it says, it teareth him, and he foameth again. 166 00:10:50.450 --> 00:10:54.380 It makes him fall on the floor and moves his body in every way, 167 00:10:54.390 --> 00:10:58.620 and then mess would come out the mouth. And he said that was what was happening. 168 00:10:58.630 --> 00:11:01.920 And then it bruises him. It bruises him. 169 00:11:01.930 --> 00:11:04.020 Now that was like the girl in the Philippines. 170 00:11:04.030 --> 00:11:06.300 She got bruised by this thing. 171 00:11:06.410 --> 00:11:10.220 And I've known of people in this country having all kinds of manifestations hit 172 00:11:10.230 --> 00:11:14.440 their body that were bruised by a thing that you couldn't see with your natural eye. 173 00:11:14.450 --> 00:11:18.120 It says that it bruises him, hardly departing from him. 174 00:11:18.130 --> 00:11:22.700 He said this is a continual mess. Day and night, it hurts him. 175 00:11:22.730 --> 00:11:25.620 And I asked your disciples to cast him out and they couldn't do it. 176 00:11:25.630 --> 00:11:26.900 That's verse 40 this time. 177 00:11:27.170 --> 00:11:30.240 And Jesus answered and said, O faithless and perverse generation. 178 00:11:30.610 --> 00:11:32.540 They both said the same thing on that. 179 00:11:32.710 --> 00:11:37.980 How long should I suffer with you and suffer you? 180 00:11:37.990 --> 00:11:41.220 Bring the son hither. And as he was yet coming, 181 00:11:41.230 --> 00:11:45.580 as the father went and got this boy that was lunatic and brought him toward Jesus, 182 00:11:45.590 --> 00:11:50.220 that even while he was bringing him, The devil hit him and threw him to the ground 183 00:11:50.230 --> 00:11:54.760 and wrestled with him, you know, hurt him in his arms or his legs or his body. 184 00:11:54.770 --> 00:11:56.560 And it says in it, tear him. 185 00:11:56.690 --> 00:12:00.880 Maybe screeching and crying and grabbing his body or his hair or something. 186 00:12:01.010 --> 00:12:05.200 And Jesus rebuked. He called it an unclean spirit. 187 00:12:05.390 --> 00:12:10.820 It was just a dirty, filthy spirit that had grabbed a hold of this child. 188 00:12:10.830 --> 00:12:13.000 And then it says, and he healed the child. 189 00:12:13.240 --> 00:12:15.810 All of the infirmities that were in that child, 190 00:12:15.820 --> 00:12:17.910 at the same time the unclean spirit went out, 191 00:12:17.920 --> 00:12:22.050 the Lord Jesus made him well in all of those areas and delivered him again to his 192 00:12:22.060 --> 00:12:25.430 father. Now, that would make me to believe the child wasn't very old. 193 00:12:25.440 --> 00:12:29.310 You wouldn't be delivering an 18 -year -old boy that's already a man back to his 194 00:12:29.320 --> 00:12:33.370 father. So I would presume the child was 8 or 10 or 12 years old in that bracket 195 00:12:33.380 --> 00:12:37.870 there, and he just picked him up and took him and handed him over to his father. 196 00:12:38.000 --> 00:12:42.030 That would be my feeling because it says he healed the child. 197 00:12:42.130 --> 00:12:46.160 And so it could not have been a grown person if it was still a child. 198 00:12:46.720 --> 00:12:49.890 And they were all amazed at the mighty power of God. 199 00:12:49.900 --> 00:12:55.810 And so here we see a situation close to what you would call epilepsy today 200 00:12:55.820 --> 00:12:59.990 or seizures today, how the Lord handled them, how the Lord handled them. 201 00:13:00.000 --> 00:13:03.650 And so there was a direct relationship between demons and disease. 202 00:13:03.800 --> 00:13:07.050 Now in your point three on page 93, 203 00:13:08.240 --> 00:13:12.020 the area of possession. In Matthew 10 and 1, 204 00:13:12.030 --> 00:13:14.600 it says that when he had called his 12 disciples, 205 00:13:14.610 --> 00:13:20.260 he gave them power against unclean spirits to cast them out and to heal all manner 206 00:13:20.270 --> 00:13:22.900 of disease, sickness and all manner of disease. 207 00:13:22.910 --> 00:13:27.220 Now, the Bible says that the Lord Jesus gave them power. 208 00:13:27.630 --> 00:13:31.540 He, at one moment, they did not have it. At another moment, they did have it. 209 00:13:31.550 --> 00:13:34.100 Now, that's what this big class is all about, really, 210 00:13:34.110 --> 00:13:39.560 that this is possible for you to have the power of God and the anointing of God. 211 00:13:39.570 --> 00:13:43.860 upon your life in a very strong way and it can come if you don't have it it can come 212 00:13:43.870 --> 00:13:49.440 now you see and that is not something you automatically i can have i believe that 213 00:13:49.450 --> 00:13:53.900 every disciple has authority to cast out devils but i believe that some of them have 214 00:13:53.910 --> 00:13:57.360 greater power than others because you're going to see here that they could do it for 215 00:13:57.370 --> 00:14:01.640 all for all of them in the second reading he says he gave them power verse 8 heal 216 00:14:01.650 --> 00:14:05.560 the sick cleanse the lepers raise the dead cast out devils freely you've received 217 00:14:05.570 --> 00:14:10.120 freely give now that you should underline Everything that you receive freely from 218 00:14:10.130 --> 00:14:12.700 God, you should freely give it. That's your salvation. 219 00:14:12.910 --> 00:14:16.940 That's your love. That's your joy. That's your power. 220 00:14:17.190 --> 00:14:20.480 Anything you receive freely from God, you ought to freely give it. 221 00:14:20.840 --> 00:14:23.310 And that means that you don't keep it in a box. 222 00:14:23.320 --> 00:14:24.930 You don't close it up tight. 223 00:14:25.160 --> 00:14:28.950 People that don't give their testimony lose what God gave them. 224 00:14:29.270 --> 00:14:32.820 You don't maintain it unless you keep it, unless you use it. 225 00:14:32.830 --> 00:14:35.480 And you cannot keep it unless you give it to others. 226 00:14:35.490 --> 00:14:37.540 By giving it away, you have it double. 227 00:14:37.660 --> 00:14:43.230 Now, in Luke's gospel, chapter 8, we go into a very strong situation. 228 00:14:43.520 --> 00:14:45.910 And it says, they arrived in the country of the Gadarenes, 229 00:14:45.920 --> 00:14:49.110 which is over against Galilee. And it is, it's right straight across the lake. 230 00:14:49.120 --> 00:14:50.870 We go over there quite often. 231 00:14:50.980 --> 00:14:53.410 And when he went forth to land, they met him out of the city, 232 00:14:53.420 --> 00:14:56.170 a certain man which had devils a long time. 233 00:14:56.510 --> 00:15:00.420 A long time. He wore no clothes, neither abode in any house. 234 00:15:00.430 --> 00:15:03.580 He lived in the tombs. When Jesus saw him, 235 00:15:03.710 --> 00:15:06.920 that the man cried out and fell down before Jesus with a loud voice. 236 00:15:07.270 --> 00:15:10.860 What have I to do with thee, Jesus? See, it wasn't even the man talking at all. 237 00:15:10.870 --> 00:15:14.940 It was the spirit. Thou son of God, most high, I beseech thee, torment me not. 238 00:15:14.950 --> 00:15:17.920 You see, it wasn't the man. It was the spirits that were crying out. 239 00:15:18.070 --> 00:15:20.980 For Jesus had commanded the unclean spirit. 240 00:15:20.990 --> 00:15:22.920 There again, he just calls it an unclean spirit, 241 00:15:22.930 --> 00:15:24.580 even though the man was possessed with it. 242 00:15:24.590 --> 00:15:27.200 And there were so many of them, as you're going to find out. 243 00:15:27.450 --> 00:15:30.160 For oftentimes, the spirit caught him, 244 00:15:30.170 --> 00:15:32.760 and he was kept bound with chains and fetters, 245 00:15:32.770 --> 00:15:35.360 and he broke the bands and was driven. 246 00:15:35.500 --> 00:15:39.590 of the devil into the wilderness there are people that are driven across this 247 00:15:39.600 --> 00:15:44.350 country and you could you would just be amazed that are driven hither and thither by 248 00:15:44.360 --> 00:15:49.210 the power of the devil jesus asked him what is your name and the the spirit spoke 249 00:15:49.220 --> 00:15:54.110 from the man said my name is legion because we are many that have entered into him 250 00:15:54.400 --> 00:15:59.350 and they besought jesus that he would not command them to go out into the deep i'd 251 00:15:59.360 --> 00:16:03.580 like you to underline verse 31 There are likely very, very, 252 00:16:03.590 --> 00:16:07.680 very many spirits that are bound in rivers and forests and different parts of the 253 00:16:07.690 --> 00:16:11.840 world today that are not active among people like ourselves because they have been 254 00:16:11.850 --> 00:16:13.620 consigned to such places. 255 00:16:15.650 --> 00:16:18.580 You say, do you have proof of that? Yeah, we'll give you that in a few moments. 256 00:16:18.830 --> 00:16:24.340 And there was there a herd of swine feeding on the mountain, 257 00:16:24.350 --> 00:16:26.440 and they besought him. May we go unto them? 258 00:16:26.450 --> 00:16:29.620 And Jesus suffered them. The Jews weren't supposed to eat them anyway. 259 00:16:30.410 --> 00:16:33.620 Then when the devils came out of the man, they entered into the swine, 260 00:16:33.630 --> 00:16:37.560 and the herd of swine ran violently down a steep place into the lake. 261 00:16:37.570 --> 00:16:41.320 You can still see that hill that overlooks the lake that they run off into it. 262 00:16:41.330 --> 00:16:43.800 And when they that fed them saw what was done, 263 00:16:43.810 --> 00:16:47.300 they fled and went and told in the city and in the country. 264 00:16:47.350 --> 00:16:51.500 And they went out to see what was done and came to Jesus and found the man out of 265 00:16:51.510 --> 00:16:55.480 whom the devils were departed. He was sitting at the feet of Jesus. 266 00:16:55.490 --> 00:16:59.040 He was no longer a wild man. He was in his right mind. 267 00:16:59.430 --> 00:17:01.820 And then the people became afraid. 268 00:17:03.010 --> 00:17:05.200 There are people that are afraid to sit in a class like this. 269 00:17:05.210 --> 00:17:07.560 Did you know it? Oh, there. I said, I wasn't afraid. 270 00:17:08.750 --> 00:17:12.800 Isn't that funny? They became afraid after the man got free, you know. 271 00:17:13.560 --> 00:17:16.050 No, no, they wouldn't go to battle for sure. 272 00:17:16.220 --> 00:17:19.510 But they were even afraid to celebrate after the battles all won. 273 00:17:20.010 --> 00:17:26.180 That's really being afraid. And they also, I saw it, but told them by what means. 274 00:17:26.440 --> 00:17:28.530 that the possessed of the devils was healed, 275 00:17:28.540 --> 00:17:32.490 and the whole multitude of the country of the Gadarenes round about besought Jesus 276 00:17:32.500 --> 00:17:36.130 to depart from them, for they were taken with great fear. 277 00:17:36.140 --> 00:17:38.570 Isn't that amazing? Afraid of a good man. 278 00:17:38.580 --> 00:17:41.890 And he went up into the ship and departed back again. 279 00:17:41.960 --> 00:17:45.250 Now the man out of whom the devils were departed besought him that he might be with 280 00:17:45.260 --> 00:17:47.890 him. But Jesus sent him away saying, 281 00:17:47.900 --> 00:17:53.350 Return into your own house and show how great things God has done to you. 282 00:17:53.480 --> 00:17:58.260 And the man went away. He published throughout the whole city how great things Jesus 283 00:17:58.270 --> 00:18:01.540 had done unto him. And I would like to continue that sometime. 284 00:18:01.810 --> 00:18:05.480 He is the one that got 5 ,000 people together in the same area there. 285 00:18:05.490 --> 00:18:08.780 And that's where Jesus multiplied the bread and the fishes. 286 00:18:08.790 --> 00:18:11.740 He did one at the south end of the lake, one at the north end of the lake. 287 00:18:11.750 --> 00:18:14.720 And the group at the south end of the lake, this is the man that got them together. 288 00:18:14.730 --> 00:18:17.760 He just kept talking and talking it till he got the great crowd together. 289 00:18:17.770 --> 00:18:19.320 And Jesus came back and ministered to them. 290 00:18:19.330 --> 00:18:21.520 And when they got hungry, he also fed them. 291 00:18:21.530 --> 00:18:27.350 So may I tell you, he was a great fellow. He did the job that Jesus told him to do. 292 00:18:28.190 --> 00:18:32.920 Now, in your part number four, there's a woman that it says Satan had bound her. 293 00:18:32.930 --> 00:18:37.940 That was a man. In Luke 13, 16, Jesus says, Ought not this woman, 294 00:18:38.150 --> 00:18:42.900 being a daughter of Abraham, I mean, she was a Jewess, whom Satan hath bound. 295 00:18:42.910 --> 00:18:45.160 Now, you could underline those words there. 296 00:18:45.170 --> 00:18:48.920 Whom Satan hath bound. You know, he didn't make any bones about it. 297 00:18:48.930 --> 00:18:53.640 He didn't call it demons or anything. He said, Whom Satan hath bound these 18 years. 298 00:18:54.150 --> 00:18:57.900 18 years, mind you. Shouldn't she be loosed on the Sabbath day? 299 00:18:58.110 --> 00:19:02.500 And so here was one that was bound, and Jesus set them free. 300 00:19:02.770 --> 00:19:06.800 You see, can the Lord deal with insanity? I told you I wanted to deal with that. 301 00:19:06.810 --> 00:19:12.420 And this is the same area that we were actually dealing with in the other one that 302 00:19:12.430 --> 00:19:15.400 we have just left over here. I think it was in Matthew, wasn't it? 303 00:19:15.530 --> 00:19:19.320 Yes, and no, it was in Luke also. And Luke, 304 00:19:19.990 --> 00:19:24.040 yeah, Luke 8, 26. And here in Mark 5, 305 00:19:24.050 --> 00:19:26.740 you'll find a similar story of the same one. 306 00:19:26.830 --> 00:19:30.400 And they came over out of the other side of the sea under the country of the 307 00:19:30.410 --> 00:19:33.160 Gadarenes. And they came out of the ship, 308 00:19:33.170 --> 00:19:36.920 and immediately they met him out of the tombs, a man with an unclean spirit, 309 00:19:36.930 --> 00:19:40.900 who had been dwelling among the tombs, and no man could bind him. 310 00:19:40.910 --> 00:19:43.260 We've got a little different phraseology to work with. 311 00:19:43.270 --> 00:19:46.040 No man could bind him. No, not with chains. 312 00:19:46.070 --> 00:19:47.660 They'd try chains on him too. 313 00:19:47.900 --> 00:19:51.570 because that he had been often bound with fetters and chains, 314 00:19:51.580 --> 00:19:55.790 and the chains had been plucked asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces. 315 00:19:55.820 --> 00:19:57.850 Neither could any man tame him. 316 00:19:57.860 --> 00:20:00.010 The psychologist got a hold of him, you see, 317 00:20:00.080 --> 00:20:02.350 and they thought they could tame him, 318 00:20:02.360 --> 00:20:05.030 but they found out all their business didn't work on him. 319 00:20:05.680 --> 00:20:10.170 And in verse 5, and always night and day, I want you to catch that night and day. 320 00:20:10.220 --> 00:20:12.430 This was a thing that caught this poor man. 321 00:20:12.440 --> 00:20:15.810 He was tormented all the time. Night and day, he was in the mountains. 322 00:20:15.820 --> 00:20:20.350 He was in the tombs. He was yelling and crying and cutting himself with stones. 323 00:20:20.560 --> 00:20:23.890 And when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshiped Jesus, 324 00:20:23.900 --> 00:20:26.590 cried with a loud voice and said, What have I do with thee, Jesus, 325 00:20:26.600 --> 00:20:31.590 the Son of the Most High God? I adjure thee by God that thou torment me not. 326 00:20:31.600 --> 00:20:33.790 Now that was the spirit speaking out of him again. 327 00:20:34.350 --> 00:20:38.240 For Jesus said unto him, Come out of the man, you unclean spirit. 328 00:20:38.440 --> 00:20:44.510 And so the man was set free by the mighty power of God and was set free, 329 00:20:44.520 --> 00:20:47.790 although he was what you'd call a crazy man today. 330 00:20:47.920 --> 00:20:52.290 And I've seen people like this, friends, in some countries like in Brazil. 331 00:20:52.300 --> 00:20:57.650 I saw a man that was chained to a post and it was outside in a yard by a store. 332 00:20:57.960 --> 00:21:01.450 And the whole population had their sport. 333 00:21:01.460 --> 00:21:05.030 They would throw food to them and he would, like a dog, jump at them, 334 00:21:05.100 --> 00:21:09.940 grab at them, and bite at them. And they would all laugh and mock at him. 335 00:21:10.070 --> 00:21:16.040 And it would just hurt you so deep inside to see people just play with a human 336 00:21:16.050 --> 00:21:21.620 being when he had lost his power of thought and his power to control his life. 337 00:21:22.110 --> 00:21:25.260 I was sitting on a bus when I saw that. The bus went on and pulled away. 338 00:21:25.270 --> 00:21:29.380 And it was in a village. And they had this man staked out like you would a dog out 339 00:21:29.390 --> 00:21:32.420 in front of the store. And they would throw him a banana or throw him an orange. 340 00:21:32.430 --> 00:21:34.280 And he would growl at him and fight at him. 341 00:21:34.290 --> 00:21:39.190 It was a... really one of the most pitiful things i've ever seen in my life your 342 00:21:39.200 --> 00:21:45.130 point number six has to do with oppression it says in acts 10 and 38 jesus was 343 00:21:45.140 --> 00:21:49.850 anointed of god with the holy ghost and with power and he went about the countryside 344 00:21:49.860 --> 00:21:55.630 there healing all that were oppressed of the devil oppressed of the devil so he 345 00:21:55.640 --> 00:21:59.810 didn't wait for you to get possessed even when you were oppressed even when you had 346 00:21:59.820 --> 00:22:05.750 fear in you even even uh any kind of an oppression and there are cases where there 347 00:22:05.760 --> 00:22:11.670 are sicknesses called oppressions that he he took away every oppression of the devil 348 00:22:11.680 --> 00:22:15.690 so we don't only have to work with those that are what we call possessed but when a 349 00:22:15.700 --> 00:22:21.050 person is being hurt by satan you have a reason and a right to uh to set them free 350 00:22:21.440 --> 00:22:27.370 in the in the gospel of matthew chapter 9 in verse 20 you it says 351 00:22:27.380 --> 00:22:31.130 and behold a woman which was diseased with an issue of blood for 12 years came 352 00:22:31.140 --> 00:22:35.000 behind him and touched the hem of his garment Now, 353 00:22:35.010 --> 00:22:36.800 there would be a person that was oppressed, 354 00:22:36.810 --> 00:22:39.380 that she had had this thing for 12 years. 355 00:22:39.390 --> 00:22:41.960 She had spent all of her money, the Bible says, 356 00:22:41.970 --> 00:22:44.540 and after she had spent everything that she had, 357 00:22:44.590 --> 00:22:49.140 the Lord Jesus Christ came and he released her from this thing by just touching him. 358 00:22:49.150 --> 00:22:53.640 It was her faith. Jesus told her, says, it's your faith that made you well. 359 00:22:53.750 --> 00:22:58.060 Now, some other areas where the Lord delivered people is, number one, in dumbness. 360 00:22:58.130 --> 00:23:01.820 In Matthew 9, 32, it says, and as they went, behold, 361 00:23:01.850 --> 00:23:04.570 they brought to him a dumb man possessed with the devil. 362 00:23:04.580 --> 00:23:08.350 And when the devil was cast out, the dumb spake, and the multitudes marveled. 363 00:23:08.360 --> 00:23:12.510 I have seen dumb people healed many times in my own life. 364 00:23:12.520 --> 00:23:16.390 And Luke chapter 11 and verse 14, and he was casting out a devil, 365 00:23:16.400 --> 00:23:19.930 and it was dumb that it came to pass when the spirit was gone out, 366 00:23:19.940 --> 00:23:23.750 the dumb spake, and the people wondered at the Lord Jesus Christ. 367 00:23:24.200 --> 00:23:26.570 Number nine, we come to blindness. 368 00:23:26.680 --> 00:23:31.770 In Matthew 12 and 22, then was brought unto him one possessed with the devil, blind. 369 00:23:32.040 --> 00:23:38.170 He was also dumb. And Jesus healed him. The blind and the dumb both spake and saw. 370 00:23:38.180 --> 00:23:43.930 And so he also included a blindness. He says he was possessed. 371 00:23:44.080 --> 00:23:46.070 Not all blindness would be possession, you see, 372 00:23:46.080 --> 00:23:52.250 like I told you in the beginning there. Also, uncleanness in Luke 4. 373 00:23:52.260 --> 00:23:57.370 And in the synagogue, there was a man who had a spirit of an unclean devil. 374 00:23:57.660 --> 00:24:01.030 Isn't that something? Just pure filth, immoralities. 375 00:24:01.220 --> 00:24:04.810 Every word he spoke was damning God, speaking evil. 376 00:24:04.860 --> 00:24:08.490 He was just filthy. Everything he said and did was filthy. 377 00:24:08.500 --> 00:24:14.490 And the Lord Jesus cast that unclean spirit out of that person and set 378 00:24:14.500 --> 00:24:18.790 him free. On your page 97, you come to the one suicide. 379 00:24:19.900 --> 00:24:23.290 Verses 27, Matthew 27 and 5. 380 00:24:23.300 --> 00:24:26.750 And Jesus cast down all the... 381 00:24:26.760 --> 00:24:31.630 And Judas cast down all the pieces of silver in the temple and departed and went out 382 00:24:31.640 --> 00:24:34.350 and hanged himself. He was possessed. 383 00:24:34.660 --> 00:24:39.090 No one would take his own life that wasn't possessed if he's in his normal mind. 384 00:24:39.120 --> 00:24:43.450 If he's in his normal mind, it's a possession that causes a person to take his own 385 00:24:43.460 --> 00:24:47.490 life. Suicide is self -inflicted murder. 386 00:24:47.760 --> 00:24:51.370 Give it its right name so people understand it because a lot of people think it's 387 00:24:51.380 --> 00:24:53.630 just putting you to sleep to land in the arms of Jesus. 388 00:24:53.640 --> 00:24:55.870 You better give it its right name and look in the dictionary. 389 00:24:56.040 --> 00:24:58.630 that suicide is self -inflicted murder. 390 00:24:58.640 --> 00:25:01.410 And when you meet God, you have to give an account for that. 391 00:25:01.950 --> 00:25:06.660 In your point number 12, in Mark 7 and 30, it says, And from hence Jesus arose, 392 00:25:06.670 --> 00:25:10.240 went to the borders of Tyre and Sidon, and entered into a house, 393 00:25:10.250 --> 00:25:12.180 and didn't want anybody to know it. 394 00:25:12.190 --> 00:25:16.780 But a certain woman who had a daughter with an unclean spirit heard him and fell at 395 00:25:16.790 --> 00:25:18.940 his feet. And the woman was a Greek. 396 00:25:19.270 --> 00:25:21.960 You know, you've got a way to get to Jesus if you want to. 397 00:25:21.970 --> 00:25:25.660 It doesn't matter who you are. She was a Syrophoenician by nation. 398 00:25:25.710 --> 00:25:29.740 And she came and besought him that he would cast the devil out of her daughter. 399 00:25:30.460 --> 00:25:33.710 And Jesus said unto her, let the children first be fed. 400 00:25:33.720 --> 00:25:37.250 And she said, yes, Lord, the dogs under the table, they also have the crumbs. 401 00:25:37.260 --> 00:25:41.030 And Jesus said, for this saying, go thy way, the devil is gone out of thy daughter. 402 00:25:41.040 --> 00:25:42.710 So Jesus spoke the word. 403 00:25:42.720 --> 00:25:46.790 And when she arrived home, that daughter was completely healed according to the 404 00:25:46.800 --> 00:25:52.790 word. In Matthew 15 and 22, it says there came a woman of Canaan. 405 00:25:52.920 --> 00:25:56.930 Out of the same coast, crying at him, saying, Have mercy on me, Lord, 406 00:25:57.830 --> 00:26:03.060 thy son of David. My daughter is grievously vexed of a devil. 407 00:26:03.070 --> 00:26:06.960 Could be the same person, you see, coming out of Canaan or up along the coast land 408 00:26:06.970 --> 00:26:11.420 there. Tyre and Sidon, right up the coast in southern Lebanon there today. 409 00:26:11.870 --> 00:26:15.840 And point number 14 in Luke chapter 14 in verse 2. 410 00:26:15.890 --> 00:26:20.620 And there was a certain man before whom which had dropsy. 411 00:26:21.090 --> 00:26:25.630 Dropsy. And the Lord Jesus Christ took the person and healed him by his mighty 412 00:26:25.640 --> 00:26:29.930 power. And in number 15, in Mark 7, 32, 413 00:26:29.940 --> 00:26:34.150 and they brought unto him one that was deaf and that had an impediment in his 414 00:26:34.160 --> 00:26:37.850 speech. And they besought Jesus to put his hand upon him. 415 00:26:37.860 --> 00:26:40.030 Jesus did, and that person was healed. 416 00:26:40.040 --> 00:26:43.870 And so there are diseases that are not related to demon power. 417 00:26:43.880 --> 00:26:46.730 There are other diseases that are related to demon power. 418 00:26:46.740 --> 00:26:49.750 And you want to know something? It don't make any difference. 419 00:26:51.330 --> 00:26:54.900 Yeah, there are no hard cases with Jesus. That's just something you cooked up. 420 00:26:56.970 --> 00:26:59.560 Jesus heals all alike, whether it's a physical thing, 421 00:26:59.570 --> 00:27:01.080 whether it's a spiritual thing. 422 00:27:01.150 --> 00:27:06.960 Jesus is a mighty healer, and he can heal anybody of anything that has 423 00:27:06.970 --> 00:27:10.060 happened to them. So when you pray for a person, you don't say, oh, Lord, 424 00:27:10.070 --> 00:27:12.360 this big thing. No, you've just missed it. 425 00:27:12.970 --> 00:27:16.100 It's only big in your eyes. It's not big with Jesus. 426 00:27:16.110 --> 00:27:19.680 So when you come to him, you just say, Lord, you're the healer of everything, 427 00:27:19.810 --> 00:27:22.900 all things, whether this thing is demonic or whether it's physical, 428 00:27:22.910 --> 00:27:25.200 makes no difference. Do it, Lord.
