- this path is already narrow
00:00:00.728 --> 00:00:02.596
And we will forge forward making no excuse
00:00:02.596 --> 00:00:05.533
For why we can live uncompromised in this generation.
00:00:05.533 --> 00:00:09.070
Lock in, gimme a hundred people who will walk
00:00:09.070 --> 00:00:12.907
That narrow road
00:00:12.907 --> 00:00:14.308
And say, i may have some things in my family,
00:00:14.308 --> 00:00:17.678
But i█m where it runs out.
00:00:17.678 --> 00:00:21.282
So i'm standing on the eastern side of the sea
00:00:22.183 --> 00:00:25.152
Of galilee at the place long remembered as the setting
00:00:25.152 --> 00:00:28.722
Of one of the most dramatic confrontations in
00:00:28.722 --> 00:00:31.692
All of the gospels.
00:00:31.692 --> 00:00:33.327
This is the very place where jesus drove demons out of a man
00:00:33.327 --> 00:00:37.164
And into a herd of pigs that then jumped off
00:00:37.164 --> 00:00:39.867
Of this very cliff into the water.
00:00:39.867 --> 00:00:42.336
And i, i need you to feel this and see this with fresh eyes,
00:00:42.336 --> 00:00:46.273
Because this is not a random story about some like,
00:00:46.273 --> 00:00:49.076
You know, crazy spiritual experience.
00:00:49.076 --> 00:00:51.412
This is actually a courtroom, right?
00:00:51.412 --> 00:00:53.914
This is a clash of kingdoms.
00:00:53.914 --> 00:00:55.783
This is jesus stepping onto enemy ground on purpose,
00:00:55.783 --> 00:01:00.187
Showing us exactly how the demonic works, what its goal is,
00:01:00.187 --> 00:01:04.592
And what happens when the son of god meets a human life
00:01:04.592 --> 00:01:07.962
That's been turned into a battlefield.
00:01:07.962 --> 00:01:10.498
Come on. so when you open your bibles to mark chapter five,
00:01:10.498 --> 00:01:13.934
Verses one through 20, you're gonna see something.
00:01:13.934 --> 00:01:16.937
And i'm, i'm gonna weave in luke chapter eight
00:01:16.937 --> 00:01:18.806
And matthew chapter eight as we go.
00:01:18.806 --> 00:01:20.841
So i want you to follow along
00:01:20.841 --> 00:01:22.109
Because i'm gonna answer the question,
00:01:22.109 --> 00:01:23.677
Why did he cast the demons into the pigs?
00:01:23.677 --> 00:01:26.447
Okay, so mark, chapter five, verse one begins like this.
00:01:26.447 --> 00:01:30.251
They, they basically came to the other side of the sea,
00:01:30.251 --> 00:01:33.587
To the country of came, come on the other side here.
00:01:33.587 --> 00:01:37.791
So if, if you were a first century jew
00:01:37.791 --> 00:01:40.427
And you were hearing this,
00:01:40.427 --> 00:01:41.896
You would immediately understand what this means.
00:01:41.896 --> 00:01:43.998
It would make sense to you.
00:01:43.998 --> 00:01:45.299
Jesus is leaving the familiar jewish side
00:01:45.299 --> 00:01:48.702
And stepping into the region associated
00:01:48.702 --> 00:01:51.639
With the de capitalis, a gentile heavy area, basically.
00:01:51.639 --> 00:01:55.509
And you can, you can already feel it in the details.
00:01:55.509 --> 00:01:58.646
So here's what we have described.
00:01:58.646 --> 00:02:00.214
There's tombs, there's death and cleanliness.
00:02:00.214 --> 00:02:03.584
Pigs, unclean animals under the jewish law, a man living
00:02:03.584 --> 00:02:08.222
Among the dead, okay?
00:02:08.222 --> 00:02:09.823
Spiritual violence, even social exile.
00:02:09.823 --> 00:02:13.460
These are all the, the, the details
00:02:13.460 --> 00:02:15.729
That we get about this situation.
00:02:15.729 --> 00:02:17.231
It's a deliberate movement to come to this other side.
00:02:17.231 --> 00:02:20.634
Jesus is not just preaching sermons in safe places.
00:02:20.634 --> 00:02:24.371
Come on, that'll preach to somebody.
00:02:24.371 --> 00:02:26.173
He's crossing boundaries to prove something.
00:02:26.173 --> 00:02:29.743
And so the kingdom of god, it's not a social club,
00:02:29.743 --> 00:02:33.414
It's an invading reign of a kingdom.
00:02:33.414 --> 00:02:36.750
It's not intimidated by darkness, it's light
00:02:36.750 --> 00:02:39.787
That goes into the very darkness.
00:02:39.787 --> 00:02:42.122
Come on. and, and so this is,
00:02:42.122 --> 00:02:44.124
This is just setting the scene for what happens.
00:02:44.124 --> 00:02:46.660
So if you look now at mark, mark says,
00:02:46.660 --> 00:02:50.264
And when jesus had stepped out of the boat,
00:02:50.264 --> 00:02:53.067
So just look at the waters,
00:02:53.067 --> 00:02:54.702
And immediately there met him out of the tombs of man
00:02:54.702 --> 00:02:57.905
With an unclean spirit.
00:02:57.905 --> 00:02:59.640
So let's talk about this phrase, unclean spirit.
00:02:59.640 --> 00:03:03.244
So in the new testament,
00:03:03.244 --> 00:03:05.246
Basically demons are described as unclean.
00:03:05.246 --> 00:03:08.115
You'll see that phrase because they defile
00:03:08.115 --> 00:03:11.051
And they degrade what god wants to make holy.
00:03:11.051 --> 00:03:14.888
They don't create, they corrupt, they don't build,
00:03:14.888 --> 00:03:18.559
They break down.
00:03:18.559 --> 00:03:20.094
And so the man, he's basically living in the tombs here.
00:03:20.094 --> 00:03:24.798
And you'll see this obsession with death.
00:03:24.798 --> 00:03:27.201
Thi this is not just creepy, it's theological.
00:03:27.201 --> 00:03:30.437
So in israel's story, death is not neutral.
00:03:30.437 --> 00:03:33.540
Death is actually the sign of the curse
00:03:33.540 --> 00:03:36.277
And a life that's fractured and separated from god.
00:03:36.277 --> 00:03:39.546
So this man is living, we humans, they're not meant to live.
00:03:39.546 --> 00:03:43.183
He's surrounded by the symbol of separation, exile,
00:03:43.183 --> 00:03:47.021
And even decay.
00:03:47.021 --> 00:03:48.589
And then mark goes a step further and he adds a detail.
00:03:48.589 --> 00:03:51.625
It says he lived among the tombs and no one could bind him.
00:03:51.625 --> 00:03:56.196
Anyone not, not, not even with a chain.
00:03:56.196 --> 00:03:58.666
And he had been bound with shackles and chains.
00:03:58.666 --> 00:04:01.702
But listen, he literally wrenched the chains apart
00:04:01.702 --> 00:04:05.172
And no one had the strength to subdue.
00:04:05.172 --> 00:04:07.107
We know that this is demonic influence, right?
00:04:07.107 --> 00:04:10.277
Then it goes on to say night and day among the tombs
00:04:10.277 --> 00:04:14.214
And on the mountains.
00:04:14.214 --> 00:04:15.416
He was always crying out
00:04:15.416 --> 00:04:17.584
And he was even cutting himself with stones.
00:04:17.584 --> 00:04:20.621
Come on, demons are still enacting this same behavior today.
00:04:20.621 --> 00:04:24.058
It's a pattern that we see in scripture.
00:04:24.058 --> 00:04:26.260
Isolation, demons drive you away from people,
00:04:26.260 --> 00:04:29.797
Away from your family, away from community.
00:04:29.797 --> 00:04:32.833
Then you see dehumanization. he's not treated like a man.
00:04:32.833 --> 00:04:36.837
He's treated like a problem that they need to restrain.
00:04:36.837 --> 00:04:39.973
Come on. we're seeing this in society today.
00:04:39.973 --> 00:04:42.609
We also see torment, not just bad ha habits,
00:04:42.609 --> 00:04:46.213
But inner torture, night and day.
00:04:46.213 --> 00:04:49.249
Then you see the cutting, the self-destruction.
00:04:49.249 --> 00:04:52.553
He's literally cutting himself.
00:04:52.553 --> 00:04:54.388
The the demon does not stop at oppression.
00:04:54.388 --> 00:04:57.157
He's actually moving towards death, right?
00:04:57.157 --> 00:05:00.194
This is the pattern that you see.
00:05:00.194 --> 00:05:01.962
But jesus says in john chapter 10, verse 10,
00:05:01.962 --> 00:05:04.631
The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy.
00:05:04.631 --> 00:05:08.902
Come on. that's not poetic. it's diagnostic.
00:05:08.902 --> 00:05:12.973
If, if you wanna discern spiritual warfare, i want you
00:05:12.973 --> 00:05:16.410
To watch for the fruit.
00:05:16.410 --> 00:05:17.845
What the fruit that is discernible, what is,
00:05:17.845 --> 00:05:20.914
Does it isolate?
00:05:20.914 --> 00:05:22.416
Does it degrade someone's identity?
00:05:22.416 --> 00:05:24.852
Does it torment and does it push towards self-destruction?
00:05:24.852 --> 00:05:29.323
That that's the smell, the aroma of the demonic.
00:05:29.323 --> 00:05:32.159
That's the visible outward manifestations of the demonic.
00:05:32.159 --> 00:05:35.662
And you need to increase in your discernment.
00:05:35.662 --> 00:05:38.499
Come on, i'm gonna get to this question about the pigs,
00:05:38.499 --> 00:05:40.901
But we're gonna kind of move through the scriptures.
00:05:40.901 --> 00:05:42.836
And mark chapter five, verse six, it says,
00:05:42.836 --> 00:05:45.239
And when he saw jesus from afar, he ran
00:05:45.239 --> 00:05:48.742
And he fell down before him.
00:05:48.742 --> 00:05:51.011
Notice the contradiction.
00:05:51.011 --> 00:05:53.013
He falls down before him, yet he's not totally worshiping.
00:05:53.013 --> 00:05:56.817
This is not real surrender.
00:05:56.817 --> 00:05:58.585
It's actually forced recognition.
00:05:58.585 --> 00:06:01.321
And, and when, when the spirit speaks, this is
00:06:01.321 --> 00:06:04.324
What the demon says.
00:06:04.324 --> 00:06:05.592
What have you to do with me, jesus, son
00:06:05.592 --> 00:06:08.562
Of the most high god, i adore you by god,
00:06:08.562 --> 00:06:11.865
Do not torment me.
00:06:11.865 --> 00:06:13.767
So matthew's account actually adds another line to that.
00:06:13.767 --> 00:06:17.604
Have you come here to torment us
00:06:17.604 --> 00:06:20.240
Before the time, notice the plural us that's loaded.
00:06:20.240 --> 00:06:24.845
Demons have theology.
00:06:24.845 --> 00:06:26.713
They know that there is a future judgment.
00:06:26.713 --> 00:06:29.550
Do you know there's a future judgment?
00:06:29.550 --> 00:06:31.385
They know that there is an appointed time.
00:06:31.385 --> 00:06:33.687
Do you know there's an appointed time?
00:06:33.687 --> 00:06:35.322
They know that jesus is the righteous judge.
00:06:35.322 --> 00:06:38.325
James chapter two, verse 19 says, even the demons believe
00:06:38.325 --> 00:06:42.496
And they shudder.
00:06:42.496 --> 00:06:44.064
So here's something that you need to hear right now, okay?
00:06:44.064 --> 00:06:48.435
Correct spiritual language.
00:06:48.435 --> 00:06:50.704
It does not equal a surrendered heart.
00:06:50.704 --> 00:06:53.407
These just people that they talk, right?
00:06:53.407 --> 00:06:55.476
But they don't live right?
00:06:55.476 --> 00:06:56.977
Come on, the demons call him son of the most high god.
00:06:56.977 --> 00:07:00.948
And they, and yet they still resist him.
00:07:00.948 --> 00:07:04.151
There's something really important in all of this.
00:07:04.151 --> 00:07:06.954
Now, as the story continues, basically jesus asks,
00:07:06.954 --> 00:07:11.892
And this is luke chapter eight, what's your name?
00:07:11.892 --> 00:07:16.196
So he, he asked that question.
00:07:16.196 --> 00:07:18.065
And this is the reply that jesus gets back legion
00:07:18.065 --> 00:07:21.768
For we are many,
00:07:21.768 --> 00:07:23.537
Or in other words, many demons have entered him.
00:07:23.537 --> 00:07:26.507
Now, a legion is a roman military term that means thousands.
00:07:26.507 --> 00:07:30.711
But whether it's literal, like a literal quantity
00:07:30.711 --> 00:07:34.214
Or a terrifying way of saying, hey, we are many, we're,
00:07:34.214 --> 00:07:37.284
There's a lot of us.
00:07:37.284 --> 00:07:38.552
The point is clear. this is not a small problem.
00:07:38.552 --> 00:07:41.788
This man is, is occupied territory.
00:07:41.788 --> 00:07:44.691
So i want you to notice this. the demonic loves collectives.
00:07:44.691 --> 00:07:49.329
They, them us, come on loves collectives.
00:07:49.329 --> 00:07:52.833
And god makes a person into a self,
00:07:52.833 --> 00:07:55.769
Into an integrated identity.
00:07:55.769 --> 00:07:57.771
So demons, they fragment the self, they multiply the voices,
00:07:57.771 --> 00:08:02.276
Multiple personalities, they fracture your will.
00:08:02.276 --> 00:08:05.479
They turn a human being into like an internal civil
00:08:05.479 --> 00:08:08.582
War demonically.
00:08:08.582 --> 00:08:10.317
And that's why later, even
00:08:10.317 --> 00:08:11.985
After this deliverance, mark says
00:08:11.985 --> 00:08:14.187
That the man is quote unquote sitting there clothed
00:08:14.187 --> 00:08:17.124
And in his right mind.
00:08:17.124 --> 00:08:19.026
So deliverance is not merely, hey, a demon left me.
00:08:19.026 --> 00:08:22.729
Deliverance is actually a human being.
00:08:22.729 --> 00:08:25.465
Come becoming whole again.
00:08:25.465 --> 00:08:27.734
And that's what god wants to do,
00:08:27.734 --> 00:08:29.369
Is make you whole again if you're watching this right now,
00:08:29.369 --> 00:08:33.006
Because demons will fragment you.
00:08:33.006 --> 00:08:34.975
And we see this now in luke chapter eight.
00:08:34.975 --> 00:08:38.011
Luke chapter eight says, they begged him not to command them
00:08:39.212 --> 00:08:43.450
To depart into the abyss.
00:08:43.450 --> 00:08:45.519
And many of you don't understand what that is.
00:08:45.519 --> 00:08:47.688
And so the abyss is not just the ocean, right?
00:08:47.688 --> 00:08:50.657
This is actually something else in jewish apocalyptic
00:08:50.657 --> 00:08:53.860
Thought and testament language.
00:08:53.860 --> 00:08:56.430
The abyss is basically a place of confinement
00:08:56.430 --> 00:08:59.333
For evil spirits, an image of restraint, judgment,
00:08:59.333 --> 00:09:03.804
And even like incarceration.
00:09:03.804 --> 00:09:05.906
So that, so basically the demons are saying in essence, hey,
00:09:05.906 --> 00:09:09.476
Don't imprison us.
00:09:09.476 --> 00:09:11.178
Don't confine us. don't restrict our operation.
00:09:11.178 --> 00:09:15.315
Think that's really good information.
00:09:15.315 --> 00:09:17.718
They, they're not, they, they're basically terrified
00:09:17.718 --> 00:09:20.287
By limitation because this is what demons really crave.
00:09:20.287 --> 00:09:23.824
They crave access, they crave embodiment,
00:09:23.824 --> 00:09:27.127
And they crave expression through that body.
00:09:27.127 --> 00:09:30.130
Th this is why the story begins now to move to pigs.
00:09:30.130 --> 00:09:33.333
Come on, we're getting there.
00:09:33.333 --> 00:09:34.801
And you're learning a lot about the nature of demons
00:09:34.801 --> 00:09:37.204
And how demons operate
00:09:37.204 --> 00:09:39.239
Because god's raising you up as a spiritual warrior.
00:09:39.239 --> 00:09:42.009
Okay, now mark, let's go back to mark.
00:09:42.009 --> 00:09:44.845
He says, now, a great herd
00:09:44.845 --> 00:09:46.980
Of pigs was feeding there on the hillside,
00:09:46.980 --> 00:09:49.716
Just over my shoulder here.
00:09:49.716 --> 00:09:51.418
And they begged him saying, hey, send us to the pigs.
00:09:51.418 --> 00:09:55.956
Let us enter them. now first re remember where we are.
00:09:55.956 --> 00:09:59.926
This is actually in, in the ancient world, a gentile region.
00:09:59.926 --> 00:10:04.264
And pigs are part of the economy. think about it.
00:10:04.264 --> 00:10:07.534
Second pigs are unclean under leviticus, that
00:10:07.534 --> 00:10:11.905
That doesn't mean that gentiles are less than.
00:10:11.905 --> 00:10:14.207
So don't hear me wrong, it just means
00:10:14.207 --> 00:10:16.076
That israel's holiness laws were symbols teaching israel
00:10:16.076 --> 00:10:20.380
That god is holy and impurity spreads.
00:10:20.380 --> 00:10:23.950
And and here is what's happening spiritually.
00:10:23.950 --> 00:10:26.386
Now the demons are trying to negotiate a transfer.
00:10:26.386 --> 00:10:30.090
It's a good way of thinking about this.
00:10:30.090 --> 00:10:32.592
They're being expelled from the man,
00:10:32.592 --> 00:10:35.295
And they want into another host, okay?
00:10:35.295 --> 00:10:38.298
They want into another host
00:10:38.298 --> 00:10:39.866
Because the demonic does not want to be disembodied
00:10:39.866 --> 00:10:44.204
And restricted.
00:10:44.204 --> 00:10:45.806
So jesus permits it.
00:10:45.806 --> 00:10:47.507
And this is where a lot of people get confused.
00:10:47.507 --> 00:10:49.609
And, and people are asking, well,
00:10:49.609 --> 00:10:50.877
Why would jesus allow that?
00:10:50.877 --> 00:10:52.646
Why not send them to the spiritual abyss?
00:10:52.646 --> 00:10:55.549
But here's a a, a rich theological answer.
00:10:55.549 --> 00:10:59.653
Jesus is not collaborating with evil.
00:10:59.653 --> 00:11:02.155
He's actually exposing it.
00:11:02.155 --> 00:11:04.458
If the demons simply left invisibly,
00:11:04.458 --> 00:11:07.561
The town could dismiss this miracle as like, oh,
00:11:07.561 --> 00:11:10.330
It's just some psychological trick that he did.
00:11:10.330 --> 00:11:13.533
But when the herd literally rushes into the sea
00:11:13.533 --> 00:11:16.703
And drowns the v, the invisible becomes visible.
00:11:16.703 --> 00:11:20.607
And the town now sees this public sign
00:11:20.607 --> 00:11:23.944
Of christ's authority and power.
00:11:23.944 --> 00:11:25.545
This was not therapy, this was not suggestion.
00:11:25.545 --> 00:11:29.116
This was real deliverance. also. now watch this.
00:11:29.116 --> 00:11:33.453
Jesus is revealing the true nature of the demonic as well.
00:11:33.453 --> 00:11:37.591
So in wisdom, he did this.
00:11:37.591 --> 00:11:39.760
When demons enter the pigs, they immediately drive them
00:11:39.760 --> 00:11:43.563
To their destruction.
00:11:43.563 --> 00:11:44.898
There was no delay.
00:11:44.898 --> 00:11:46.199
And again, in john chapter 10, verse 10,
00:11:46.199 --> 00:11:49.169
I quoted it already,
00:11:49.169 --> 00:11:50.570
The demonic does not coexist peacefully.
00:11:50.570 --> 00:11:54.107
It consumes and immediately destroys.
00:11:54.107 --> 00:11:57.577
So you're, you're seeing this, there's, come on.
00:11:57.577 --> 00:11:59.746
I wanna go even deeper though.
00:11:59.746 --> 00:12:01.148
So mark says that the pigs, this is the quotes,
00:12:01.148 --> 00:12:04.918
They rush down the steep bank into the sea.
00:12:04.918 --> 00:12:07.654
I'm, i'm standing right at the precipice of this,
00:12:07.654 --> 00:12:10.056
This steep cliff here.
00:12:10.056 --> 00:12:11.892
And do you remember israel's story in exodus,
00:12:11.892 --> 00:12:15.362
The oppressive power of egypt is swallowed by the sea.
00:12:15.362 --> 00:12:19.366
As israel goes free.
00:12:19.366 --> 00:12:21.368
The, the sea in biblical imagination often represents,
00:12:21.368 --> 00:12:25.205
Chaos represents a threat and,
00:12:25.205 --> 00:12:27.808
And powers even beyond human controls,
00:12:27.808 --> 00:12:30.443
Just like the red sea.
00:12:30.443 --> 00:12:32.279
And here as jesus delivers a man from a legion, thousands
00:12:32.279 --> 00:12:36.783
Of unclean animals plunge into the waters, a mass of them.
00:12:36.783 --> 00:12:41.087
We don't know how many, this is not random.
00:12:41.087 --> 00:12:43.590
It's, it's like a living visible parable.
00:12:43.590 --> 00:12:47.127
Jesus is re the new moses.
00:12:47.127 --> 00:12:50.096
The final moses is reenacting liberation.
00:12:50.096 --> 00:12:53.066
Another exodus, another captivity broken.
00:12:53.066 --> 00:12:56.269
Another tyrant drowned.
00:12:56.269 --> 00:12:58.271
But this time it's not pharaoh, it's the demons. come on.
00:12:58.271 --> 00:13:01.942
Ah, i'm, i'm getting a little excited up here
00:13:01.942 --> 00:13:04.644
'cause i just, i feel the power of god in this mark,
00:13:04.644 --> 00:13:06.980
Chapter four, verse 14 says
00:13:06.980 --> 00:13:09.015
That the herdsman literally ran and told it.
00:13:09.015 --> 00:13:12.085
And then the people came
00:13:12.085 --> 00:13:13.420
And saw, which kind of confirms this theory.
00:13:13.420 --> 00:13:15.822
It says, the demon possessed man, clothed.
00:13:15.822 --> 00:13:18.225
And in his right mind, they saw him and they were afraid.
00:13:18.225 --> 00:13:22.329
Watch this. then they began to beg jesus
00:13:22.329 --> 00:13:25.799
To depart from their region.
00:13:25.799 --> 00:13:27.567
They told jesus, you gotta leave.
00:13:27.567 --> 00:13:29.369
This is one of the most sobering verses i think in the
00:13:29.369 --> 00:13:32.505
Entire new testament.
00:13:32.505 --> 00:13:34.241
They would rather have a demonized man in chains than a
00:13:34.241 --> 00:13:38.345
Delivered man and a disrupted economy
00:13:38.345 --> 00:13:41.982
Because they lost their pigs.
00:13:41.982 --> 00:13:43.650
Now we know what the real god is money,
00:13:43.650 --> 00:13:46.052
Because deliverance is expensive to the systems
00:13:46.052 --> 00:13:49.256
That profit from bondage.
00:13:49.256 --> 00:13:51.157
Ah, come on.
00:13:51.157 --> 00:13:52.459
Sometimes people don't hate jesus because,
00:13:52.459 --> 00:13:56.396
Because he's cruel.
00:13:56.396 --> 00:13:57.864
They hate him because he's free.
00:13:57.864 --> 00:14:00.600
Think about what i'm saying.
00:14:00.600 --> 00:14:02.135
And freedom threatens the local order when it's dependent on
00:14:02.135 --> 00:14:06.239
Monetizing people's pain through addiction and bondage.
00:14:06.239 --> 00:14:10.243
I, i mean, what jesus does next is literally genius though.
00:14:10.243 --> 00:14:14.514
And, and i need you to catch this.
00:14:14.514 --> 00:14:16.249
The man begs to go with jesus.
00:14:16.249 --> 00:14:18.919
Mark says, hey, he did not permit him,
00:14:18.919 --> 00:14:22.656
But said to him, go home to your friends
00:14:22.656 --> 00:14:25.558
And tell them how much the lord has done for you.
00:14:25.558 --> 00:14:28.828
And, and he has had mercy upon you.
00:14:28.828 --> 00:14:31.431
This is, this is like absolutely stunning,
00:14:31.431 --> 00:14:34.234
Like mind blowing, to be honest with you.
00:14:34.234 --> 00:14:36.536
Jesus makes a delivered man. come on. this is what he does.
00:14:36.536 --> 00:14:40.440
He makes a delivered man, the evangelist.
00:14:40.440 --> 00:14:43.143
Hey, they don't want me in this town.
00:14:43.910 --> 00:14:45.278
You go tell everybody, listen,
00:14:45.278 --> 00:14:47.614
I'm just gonna end it like this.
00:14:47.614 --> 00:14:49.149
And i, i think i've unlocked the mystery of the question,
00:14:49.149 --> 00:14:52.319
Why did he cast the demons into pigs?
00:14:52.319 --> 00:14:54.955
Right? right here. i mean, geography doesn't lie.
00:14:54.955 --> 00:14:57.958
This is the only spot that works for the story.
00:14:57.958 --> 00:15:00.760
I'm standing in it right now.
00:15:00.760 --> 00:15:02.362
But i want you to think about this. think about your town.
00:15:02.362 --> 00:15:04.597
Think about your city.
00:15:04.597 --> 00:15:06.199
Think about the way that they profit off of your addiction.
00:15:06.199 --> 00:15:10.203
They think about the stores that sell the illicit drugs
00:15:10.203 --> 00:15:14.407
And alcohol.
00:15:14.407 --> 00:15:15.809
Think about the strip clubs.
00:15:15.809 --> 00:15:17.177
Think about all the places you can go think about.
00:15:17.177 --> 00:15:20.213
See, what happens is there's a whole economy of darkness,
00:15:20.213 --> 00:15:23.850
A whole eco, a demonic economy.
00:15:23.850 --> 00:15:26.252
And here's one of the things deliverance does.
00:15:26.252 --> 00:15:28.521
Deliverance directly confronts the demonic.
00:15:28.521 --> 00:15:31.358
And when it removes the demonic, it breaks that economy.
00:15:31.358 --> 00:15:34.894
See, wouldn't it be incredible if right there
00:15:34.894 --> 00:15:38.164
Where you live businesses started shutting down
00:15:38.164 --> 00:15:40.900
Because there's no longer a demand to get drunk,
00:15:40.900 --> 00:15:43.670
To get high, to, to gamble your life away, to go,
00:15:43.670 --> 00:15:47.140
To go into sexual perversion.
00:15:47.140 --> 00:15:49.109
Wouldn't it be amazing if you started seeing
00:15:49.109 --> 00:15:51.578
So much deliverance where you live,
00:15:51.578 --> 00:15:53.279
That they start shutting down all those places?
00:15:53.279 --> 00:15:55.315
'cause you're breaking the economy.
00:15:55.315 --> 00:15:57.217
That's that's come on connected to this.
00:15:57.217 --> 00:15:59.986
Lemme let me pray for you right now actually,
00:15:59.986 --> 00:16:01.755
Because i, i, i believe
00:16:01.755 --> 00:16:03.089
That god is even moving in your heart right now.
00:16:03.089 --> 00:16:05.125
Father, i thank you that you are still a deliverer.
00:16:05.125 --> 00:16:08.995
You are still breaking the chains of darkness
00:16:08.995 --> 00:16:11.364
And setting the captives free.
00:16:11.364 --> 00:16:13.199
And heavenly father, i thank you
00:16:13.199 --> 00:16:15.301
That we are gonna confront the works of darkness.
00:16:15.301 --> 00:16:17.771
And we're gonna see these places shut their doors
00:16:17.771 --> 00:16:20.840
As we disrupt and disturb
00:16:20.840 --> 00:16:22.709
And economy that's connected to it.
00:16:22.709 --> 00:16:24.878
And father, i thank you that you are the same yesterday,
00:16:24.878 --> 00:16:27.547
Today, and forever.
00:16:27.547 --> 00:16:28.982
And if you did it, then we say together
00:16:28.982 --> 00:16:31.518
Around the world, do it again.
00:16:31.518 --> 00:16:33.319
In jesus' name, amen.
00:16:33.319 --> 00:16:35.321
- jesus said in matthew seven, narrow is the gate
00:16:36.322 --> 00:16:39.726
And difficult is the way that leads to life.
00:16:39.726 --> 00:16:42.929
In a world that celebrates compromise, god calls us
00:16:42.929 --> 00:16:46.366
To live set apart, to walk the narrow way with courage,
00:16:46.366 --> 00:16:51.037
Conviction, and faith.
00:16:51.037 --> 00:16:53.506
