Today on Summit Life, Pastor J.D. Greer talks about the spiritual realm.

Jesus spent his whole ministry casting out demons.

We're not talking about like a side kind of element of his ministry.

We're talking about one of the major motifs in his life.

And if you believe that Jesus is the son of God and you believe that he reveals truth,

then you don't really have the option to not believe in an active and vibrant spirit world because he very clearly did. Welcome back to Summit Life with Pastor J.D. Greer.

As always, I'm your host Molly Vittevich.

So when you think about the concept of demons, what first comes to mind?

I think a lot of us picture something from a movie like the Ghostbusters running around with

their vacuum cleaner trap packs or the latest horror film on Netflix.

It feels like a little out there, a little crazy,

and the stuff of fiction to us,

but today, Pastor J.D shows us that the spirit world is very real

and it affects our lives a lot more than we probably think.

We only have a few days of teaching left in the Book of Ephesians, so grab your Bible, a pen, and a notebook,

and let's join Pastor J.D JD as we seek to get a clearer

picture of the unseen world.

Here we go.

Ephesion 6, starting in verse 11. He says, quote, put on the whole armor of God,

that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil,

for we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers and against the authorities

and against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil and the heavenly places.
