They Shall Cast Out Devils

The Revival Fellowship

Delivered By Pastor Brad Smith on 1st September 2024. We will particularly look at Mark 16 and the 'casting out of devils'... why is casting out devils listed first? Let's see how the word 'devils' is used in scriptures... The Jews had no words for mental illness as we now have today. Many of the 'demon possessions' in the scriptures are mental illnesses and are quite definable by modern medicine (let's not confuse the cause with the solution... God heals and cleanses, and this also includes both spiritual and mental problems). This presentation is not denying the existence of devils and demons as some understand them, but is revealing that there are often other options or explanations for the same event. Not every 'devil' that is healed or cast out is a reference to supernatural possession.
