Teaching Sermons For Pastors and Laymen, What the Bible Says About Demons, Mark 5:1-13
The subject of demons has run the gamut in peoples thinking. Some people become obsessed with the study of demons, allowing their imaginations to run away with them. They see demons everywhere. Some become self-appointed exorcists and set about to rid their world of these emissaries of Satan. They tend to assign everything evil to demonic activity.
At the other extreme are those who deny the existence of demons, relegating them to ancient mythology or to an earlier time of ignorance and superstition. The ancient Greeks believed that demons were the souls of evil people who had died. Others have believed that demons are the disembodied spirits of a race of people who existed before Adam and Eve were created. The scriptures, however, make no mention of such a race.
