Identifying the Demons
If you were tasked with answering the question, “…how do I know if I have a demon”? How would you respond? In the case of the Gadarene Demoniac, you wouldn’t even need to be a Christian to spot something was seriously wrong with the man. “Normal” people don’t live naked among the tombs, screaming and cutting themselves with stones. “Normal” people don’t speak in the second person plural! Admittedly, this is an extreme case, but I want to submit, those in the Bible possessed with demons are known to be, not only by themselves but by those coming into contact with them.
Why do I take the time to point out the patently obvious? Those within the deliverance movement would have us understand that the vast majority of believers in Jesus have demons in them, but the problem is, they know it not! If this is the case, the question that follows is, how is one to identify whether or not they have a demon from which they need deliverance? It is this question that is the focus of this fourth teaching part.
