Subject: Tell me who unties them? |
Bible Note: Nolan I was not talking about exorcism, the freeing of someone of a demon. I was talking about the common practice of spiritual warfare of binding Satan. We can't bind Satan from doing anything. Now I can plead the blood of Jesus and I know Satan will not cross the blood line. But to say I bind you from this situation is nothing more to me than telling Satan where he can hurt you most. I would ask Jesus to place this situation under his blood, to loose angels to guard against the adversary, but trying to binding Satan is like calling to the wind, since we have never been given the authority to bind him. If you feel we can bind Satan how does he then get loose? Ed |
