Description

In this sermon, we explore one of the most mysterious stories in the Gospel of Luke - when Jesus encounters a man possessed by Legion, a multitude of demons. Why did Jesus allow the demons to enter the pigs? What does this teach us about spiritual warfare today?

Key Topics Covered: ✓ Understanding demonic possession vs. mental illness ✓ How demons recognize Jesus as Son of the Most High God ✓ The symbolism of the pigs drowning in the lake ✓ Modern spiritual warfare and temptation ✓ Jesus' ultimate victory over Satan's forces ✓ Protection through Word and Sacrament

This message reminds us that while spiritual forces are real and active, Jesus Christ has already won the ultimate victory. Christians today face temptation and spiritual attack, but we have complete protection and defense through the Gospel and means of grace.

Scripture: Luke 8:26-39 - Jesus and the Gerasene Demoniac
