Can We Cast Out Demons?

Monday, September 30, 2024 • Duration 44:56

Demon exorcisms, pulling demons out of people, casting out demons… Are these things Christians should be trying to do? Do we even hold the power to do so? Popular culture, sensationalism, and media would say yes, but what does scripture say about these phenomena? Unsurprisingly, the common ideas of these actions are far off from how the Bible instructs us to fight this supernatural, spiritual warfare of good versus evil!

Did Jesus Descend Into Hell?

Monday, September 2, 2024 • Duration 47:07

Why does the Apostles’ Creed say that Jesus “descended into hell?” There are many frequently asked questions regarding this statement. What does “hell” mean, and where does Jesus really go after the crucifixion? In scripture, we see several Greek and Hebrew words translated as “hell.” Our culture and media have also distorted our idea of what words like hades, land of the dead, and paradise truly mean, even in largely Christian circles. We hope you find this conversation informative!
