    The account of Jesus healing a man with a demon will teach us about the power of Jesus over demons.

    Scripture In chapter 8 of Luke’s Gospel, he answers the question, “Who then is this?” (8:25). In four different accounts he shows that Jesus has power over nature, demons, disease, and death. Last time we examined Jesus’ power over nature when he calmed the storm on the ...read more

    The demon possessed man had another side we never view. Perhaps this will help.

    June 23, 2013 The Preacher of Gergesa At the edge of town a huge pecan tree had grown next to the cemetery fence. One day, two boys picked up a bucketful of nuts and sat by the tree, out of sight, and began dividing the haul. “One for you, one for me. One for you, one for me,” said ...read more

    We all wrestle with demons, but Jesus never forsakes us. That gives us a story to tell.

    Luke 8:26-39 "Tell the Story" Last week I received a message from from a guy named Brian; he had looked me up on Facebook. I admit that I did not immediately recognize the name, but once I started reading the message, I remembered him quite well. Brian is now a meteorologist at a t-v ...read more

    “Return to your home, and declare how much God has done for you” Luke 8:39

    Theme: Christ shall set you free Text: 1 Kings 19:1-7; Gal. 3:23-29; Lk. 8:26-39 Jesus taught with such authority that it displeased the regular teachers in the Synagogues.

    Would You Ask Jesus To Leave?

    based on 1 rating
     | 6,719 views

    When we cling to and refuse to forsake sin, habits, and less than admirable behavior, we are asking Jesus to leave us. Jesus wants to "cast out" those behaviors in our life if we'll let him.

    If you are familiar with “The Andy Griffith” show, you may remember the loveable character named Otis. He was well known around town as being “the town drunk.” He was harmless and seemed to be more of a town mascot. However, this was not the case in our story in Luke. ...read more

    Do you believe in a Devil as powerful as God? There is no un-created being except God. God has no opposite in power and majesty. The proper question is whether I believe in devils. And I Do! (Updated June 2018)

    The healing which Jesus gives us reaches beyond our bodily ailments to the forgiveness of sins.

    SALVATION AND HEALING IN LUKE: A HOLISTIC GOSPEL. The Apostle Paul calls Luke, “the beloved Physician” (Colossians 4:14). As Luke’s Gospel opens, it is interesting to observe something which would have been of interest to him in a professional capacity, but which is often lost in translation. ...read more

    The sermon points out five changes Jesus brought to the man possessed by demons. I identify what his life was like before Jesus and what it was like after encountering Him.

    Before and after! From our cardboard testimonies you have seen the message of what a person’s life was like before Jesus and what it is like after Jesus comes into their life. Maybe you need Jesus to make a difference in your life today! Let’s look at the story of a man who experienced ...read more

    Jesus is ready to heal and possess you; are you afraid?

    I may have told you this before, but while in conversation with Pastor Wagner about our up-coming trip to the Holy Land, he said, "After the trip, you will never read the Bible the same way again; what you once read in black and white, you will now read in living color."
