God told us, the bible tells us, and Jesus told us, and we certainly have experienced some things of this world and know that this is true.

Just look at society, the wickedness and evil that occurs today, who would have ever thought that our children would be under attack in our schools.

That is where you went to get an education, now we must worry about them being under attack by purely evil people.

Man & Satan brought in Sin.

Genesis 3:1 Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?

Genesis 3:2 And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden:

Genesis 3:3 But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die.

Genesis 3:4 And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die:

 Genesis 3:5 For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.

Man thinking, he could be equal footing with God and could be come as gods they were sadly mistaken. It was an absolute lie that came for the father of lies Satan in the form of a snake, a talking one at that..

Evil in the country of the Gadarenes

Jesus and disciples here,

Luke 8:27 And when he went forth to land, there met him out of the city a certain man, which had devils long time, and ware no clothes, neither abode in any house, but in the tombs.

of the city a certain man, which had devils long time

Luke 8:28 When he saw Jesus, he cried out, and fell down before him, and with a loud voice said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of God most high? I beseech thee, torment me not.

Evil knows who Jesus is….

Why don’t you?

Luke 8:29 (For he had commanded the unclean spirit to come out of the man. For oftentimes it had caught him: and he was kept bound with chains and in fetters; and he brake the bands, and was driven of the devil into the wilderness.)

Casing out evil question them!

Luke 8:30 And Jesus asked him, saying, What is thy name? And he said, Legion: because many devils were entered into him.

What is thy name?

Legion: because many devils were entered into him

Legion = a unit of 3,000–6,000 men in the ancient Roman army.

Luke 8:31 And they besought him that he would not command them to go out into the deep.

Deep= the pit, hell, sheol

There request “Don’t throw us in the pit”

Luke 8:32 And there was there an herd of many swine feeding on the mountain: and they besought him that he would suffer them to enter into them. And he suffered them.

Sometimes God gives you exactly what you ask for.

 Luke 8:33 Then went the devils out of the man, and entered into the swine: and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the lake, and were choked.

Now they were sent to the deep!

Matthew 28:18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth

Satan=Death           Jesus=Life

Devil     backwards  =  Lived

 Evil       backwards  =     Live

John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
