Bible Question:
I would like to know if there are particular places in the bible that talk about demons and the passing of these in to children. Can this happen during a deliverance of an adult, the demon coming out and going into a child can spaeking the blood over them protect the children while this is going on. Also if this were happening on one floor of a house would sending them out of the room onto another floor for example protect them. Please tell me anywhere in the bible this is spoken about and can be verified? Thankyou Donna |
Bible Answer: There is very little spoken about demons in the Bible. We see Jesus cast out them in Matthew 4:24; Matthew 8:16; Mark 3:22; Luke 4:41. We see power over them given to the disciples in Matthew 10:1; Mark 6:7; Mark 16:17. And we see the disciples cast demons out in Mark 9:38; Luke 10:17, by Peter in Acts 5:16, by Paul in Acts 16:16-18; Acts 19:12 and by Philip in Acts 8:7 In Matthew 8:30-32 when Jesus cast out the demons we see the demons asking to go into the pigs. However this is not setting doctrine that demons when cast must go into some other living body. I think Jesus allowed this to happen to show us clearly Satan nor his demons can see the future, because if they had they would have known the pigs would kill themselves by running over the cliff. We do not know how demons enter someone or under what conditions. The scriptures are silent on this. Also we are not told how to exercise or drive demons out we are just given examples of others doing it. You made mention of speaking the “Blood” over the children, while this is a fairly common practice especially in Pentecostal circles again there is no scriptural foundation for it. I think before anyone starts messing with demons two things better be done. Everyone involved better be saved and in very close relationship with Jesus. Who ever is going to do deliverance better be on such firm footing with the Lord that he has total and complete control of a demon if there is a demon, less he and others with him turn out like the Sons of Sceva. |
