We explore the biblical reality of demons as active spiritual entities, not fictional metaphors, that work against God's people. Understanding their nature, tactics, and the authority believers have through Christ empowers us to recognize spiritual warfare without falling into fear.
• Demons are the disembodied spirits of Nephilim seeking hosts to influence and oppress
• Scripture repeatedly shows Jesus confronting and casting out demons throughout his ministry
• Modern demonic activity often works through false teachings, fear, addiction, and entertainment glorifying darkness
• Pharmakia (the Greek word for sorcery) connects substance use with opening spiritual doorways
• Fascinating parallels exist between parasitic infections and demonic oppression
• Born-again believers cannot be possessed but can still experience spiritual oppression
• Christians have authority through Christ to resist demonic influence
• Standing firm requires truth, righteousness, faith, salvation, God's Word and prayer
