CASTING DEMONS.

The meaning of the word demon refers to unclean demons,  evil spirits, the devil, evil, destroyer and a destroyer. They are angels who rebelled against God and were cast into the world. "And there was war in heaven; Michael and his angels fought against the dragon (Satan), he said the dragon fought and his angels; They did not prevail, neither was their place found any more in heaven. The dragon was cast out, the firstborn, the one of old, called the Devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole world; he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. " Revelation 12: 7-9.

There are things that should be considered when one casting demons. These are:
 1. One  must have the power of the Holy Spirit. We can learn this in a lesson on how Jesus  Christ use to cast demons by  the power of Holy Spirit. It is written, "... He commands unclean spirits by authority and power, and they come out." Luke 4:36.
   
2. Casting demons using the  name of Jesus.
The one who has the authority to cast demons are the Christians who believe in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior in their life. "And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name they will cast out demons ...... " Matthew 16:17.

Those who do not yet believe in Jesus  as Savior, is not advisable or try to cast demons because demons will not come out, as much as they  could  be attack by those who have demons, the same as the sons of Sceva, who was the high priest.

"..... They tried to mention the name of the Lord Jesus over those who had evil spirits, saying, I command in the name of Jesus, the one preached by Paul. There were seven sons of one Sceva, a Jewish high priest, were doing so ..... the man who was possessed by demons  he attacked the two, he could prevailed them, even they fled out of that house naked and wounded. " Acts 19 : 13-16.
   
3. Praying every day and sometimes  fasting. Otherwise doing these, it is impossible for them to do anything,that  is why Jesus said "But this kind does not go out except by prayer and fasting." Matthew 17:21.
   
4. Casting demons with faith. We can learn from Jesus' disciples when were unable to cast out demons from the young man.   They failed because they were not confident and lack of faith. If they would be confident they could send demons out. "Then the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Why couldn't we cast him out? Jesus said to them because of the lack of faith ... .. " Matthew 17: 19-20.
5. Casting demons using command and authority. We command demons by using the Jesus’ name. We can learn from Paul when the maidservant had cast demons, and commanded by tell the demon, ".. ... I command you in the name of Jesus Christ to come out, at the same time it came out." Acts 16:18.

6. Mistakes which  are done for those who rebukes demons by saying,  I destroy you with the blood of Jesus, I burn you in the fire, or I bind you. Doing so is contrary to God's authority that he gave it to his children. For this reason, God has given us the authority to destroy, devour, nor binding. In  principles demons still  exist in this world because their time to be judged and  tormented is not yet. That is why when demons  saw Jesus Christ , "... ..said, what do you want with us,  Son of God? Have you come here to punish us before our semester? " Matthew 8:29.

7. When assisting a person  possessed by demons it is not a proper methods  to talk and asking questions from demons such as: who sent them and why do you persecute the man. We should not listen to the devil and his demons because they are evil   and always liars. ".... When he speaks a lie, he says things that belong to himself; because he is a liar, and the father of it "  John 8:44. Jesus who is our role model in the ministry did not do it,  even when he saw the man who had been possessed and suffer many days he asked him  what  he wanted  to do for him,  not by asking the name of demons. Instead the demons that have dominated the man answered they are the army. "And Jesus  asked  him,  saying, What  is thy name? And he said Legion; because  many devils were entered into  him:  " Luke 8:30.

Demon wants to return back after being cast. When demon leaves from a person later returns and check if he can enter to a person  again. If that person lives a life of sin, he sees the house is dirty and entered " When unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest, and findeth none. Then he saith, I will return into  house my house I came out, and when  he is come he findeth it  empty, swept, and garnished. Then goeth he and taketh with himself seven other spirit  more wicked than himself, and they enter in and dwell there; and the  last state of man  is worse than first. Even so shall it be also unto thith wicked generation. " Matthew 12: 43-45

HEALING OF DISEASES.

The source of the disease. Diseases are caused by sin. That is why when Jesus healed a sick man he warned him saying, "... See you are well; Sin no more, lest a worse thing may happen to you!" John 5:14. If a person has sinned and got sick, when  he go for check up  the disease will be visible. When  he do  a check up and   disease is invisible  probably demons had entered to him. "Then goeth he, and taketh with himself,and they enter in and dwell there: and the last state of of that man is worse than the the first. Even so shall it be also unto this wicked generation”. Matthew 12:45. Sometimes not every person who is sick has sinned, but  the result of a disease in the body is caused by missing nutritious daily meal (lack of balance diet). Some  the wickedness in the human body can also be due to God's purpose even  though not all of it. "The Lord said to him, who has made ​​man's mouth? Or who causes the person to be dumb, or d...

The Lord God, merciful and gracious, longsuffering,  and abundant in goodness and abundance,  keeping merciful for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin; not ascribing evil man who was innocent would never ...

"People should obey the past, God's patience while waiting in the days of Noah, while the ark was made; wherein few, that is, eight souls were saved in the water". 1Peter 3:20. Those who did not repent were destro...
