Summary

Are demons real—or just a delusion? The recent Minneapolis Catholic school shooting may be one of the clearest examples of demonic activity ever covered by the mainstream media. Frank takes a hard look at the shocking details surrounding the tragedy where a trans-identifying individual left many clues behind to demonstrate his delusion before deliberately targeting innocent children. He'll answer tough questions like:* What shows us the shooter was influenced by demons?* Why is Satan called "the father of lies"?* What is the anecdotal fallacy and why is it so dangerous?* What are the 3 ways we learn about reality?* Who is Satan, what does his name mean, and what does he want with us?* What does John 8 teach us about demons?* How can we demonstrate that God exists without even opening the Bible?* How did Jesus resist temptation from Satan—and how can we do the same?* What are some other things we can do to protect ourselves from the evil one?The most dangerous thing about deception is that you don’t realize you’re being deceived! If you or someone you know needs to confront demonic influence without falling into despair, the only source of true freedom is the saving grace of Jesus Christ. Tune in to gain practical tools from Scripture to overcome fear, resist the enemy’s lies, and stand firm in a culture increasingly hostile to Christianity.Resources mentioned during the episode:Josh Howerton - The Most OVERT Demonic Activity I've EVER Seen: https://youtu.be/F3imoOK0FKw (https://youtu.be/F3imoOK0FKw) Hollywood Heroes by Frank & Zach Turek - https://bit.ly/3Or82Ax (https://bit.ly/3Or82Ax)

0:00.0	Ladies and gentlemen, did demons exist? Does Satan exist? I think that we have just witnessed
0:11.3	one of the most overt examples of satanic and demonic activity ever recorded by the major media. We're going to get into that today. And I want to
0:25.1	start with something C.S. Lewis said about demons and our belief in Satan and demons. He said
0:33.3	there are two equal and opposite errors into which our race can fall about the devils.
0:40.5	One is to disbelieve in their existence.
0:43.3	The other is to believe and to feel an excessive and unhealthy interest in them.
0:50.0	They themselves are equally pleased by both errors and hail a materialist or a magician with the same delight.
0:58.6	We tend to go between these two extremes, said Lewis.
1:01.4	There are people out there who say, oh, no, no, there's no spiritual realm.
1:03.9	There's no Satan.
1:05.0	There's no demons.
1:05.7	It's not even any God.
1:06.7	It's just material that exists.
1:09.6	Just molecules in motion.
1:11.3	We're just bumping into one another.
1:13.1	These molecules are bumping into one another, and that accounts for all of reality.
1:16.5	On the opposite extreme, says Lewis, is the idea that Satan and demons are everywhere doing everything,
1:24.4	and we have an unhealthy fascination with them. These are both errors. He's saying that
1:31.9	it's wrong to either ignore the reality of spiritual evil altogether or by fascinating ourselves with it
1:41.0	in an unhealthy way. That is an equal and opposite error. What is the proper
1:47.1	way to look at this? And what is this one extreme example of demonic activity that even the
1:54.0	major media seems to have covered maybe inadvertently? Well, I'll get to it here in a minute.
