Summary
We are going to explain how it is possible for a Christian to be demonized. I will be covering some of Sam Storms's articles on the topic of a demon indwelling a Christian. We will not only cover how it is possible but also discuss objections and misconceptions when it comes to demonization.
Can a Christian be possessed? What is the difference between possession and oppression? How can the Holy Spirit and a demon dwell in the same place? + Many other questions will be answered.

| 0:00.0 | Is there a desire in you to not just attend revival, but live in revival? |
| 0:04.3 | Welcome to the Revival Lifestyle podcast. |
| 0:06.7 | I'm your host, Isaiah Saldivar. |
| 0:08.6 | I've been in revival for the last 10 years, as well as traveling and being a part of many revivals throughout the United States. |
| 0:14.9 | I'm going to be sharing with you how to live a radical lifestyle of revival on a daily basis. |
| 0:21.4 | Okay, there we go. |
| 0:22.6 | Let's try this again. |
| 0:23.5 | We're going to answer the controversial question, can a Christian have a demon? |
| 0:27.1 | And more actually specific will be, can a demon indwell a believer? |
| 0:31.5 | Many people believe the demon just dwells on the outside or a demon just dwells on top of them. |
| 0:35.8 | But we're going to look at scripture. |
| 0:36.9 | We're going to go over a lot of verses. And we're going to also go over what Derek Prince, |
| 0:40.4 | who's a Greek scholar teaches, what Don Dirkerman, who's done over 25,000 deliverances teaches, |
| 0:45.2 | what Sam Storms, who's a well-known author and scholar teaches, and also what John Eckhart |
| 0:49.2 | teaches. I've never done this before, but we're actually going to be focusing on their teachings when it comes to Christians being demonized. |
| 0:54.4 | And I'm going to show you that this is actually a very orthodox take when it comes to deliverance, |
| 0:58.6 | that demons only dwell on people. demons do not dwell on top of people. Jesus never one time cast a demon off of anyone. |
| 1:05.8 | And we're going to look at some arguments here. First, we'll start with the objections of a Christian having a demon of them saying this is why you can't have a demon and then we're going to look at |
| 1:13.7 | some arguments for Christians having demons and first of all let me start by saying |
| 1:18.8 | no a Christian cannot be demon possessed but here's the caveat possession is not |
| 1:24.0 | biblical there's no biblical reality for possession I would argue this and I want to start with saying the devil does not own anything. The devil doesn't own anything. He doesn't own people. He doesn't own the world. He's the lowercase God of the world, but he doesn't own the world. So for the devil to possess something is unscriptural. So we're going to show that in scripture that the devil is not |
| 1:44.6 | possessing things. But I want to look at Sam Storm, some of the best articles I've ever read. |
