    If Jesus Isn't In Church You Go Home With Your Demons

    Contributed by Aaron Holbrough on Feb 12, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,145 views

    We need to domesticate the word Demon to imply anything that desires to negatively control and influence us. Once we do that, so much of what Jesus does become incredibly applicable to us.

    Did you happen to bring a demon to church on Sunday or maybe just sit beside one? Hard to tell isn’t it, Botox is really screwing up my ability to spot them in a crowd. In Luke 4:31 we find Jesus is teaching in a Synagogue, and at some point a man interrupts and an evil spirit speaks to ...read more
