Question

Why did the demons at Gadara ask to go into the herd of swine?

Answer

And one time, Jesus cast out some demons out of a man from Gadara, and they went into a herd of swine. Is that right? Demons are powerless unless they’re embodied. So they begged for mercy, even to go into swine. ’Cause Jesus wouldn’t permit them in a human body. So now, if you’re irreverent, keep your head up, or a critic. Remember this, I will not be responsible, But if something happens and you’re reverent, and keep your head bowed, I will be responsible. You can come here, and I could take…God will heal that person. But if you’re irreverent, you might come and it wouldn’t go anyhow. See? So you just… I seen it worked over and over. How many’s been in my meetings and seen such things happen, let’s see your hands? All right, there you are. There’s…It’s so you just have to be careful. Now, just be reverent and pray, and believe that God is going to heal. Now, I want them to come one at a time, till I get real tired. And then if I get tired, maybe I’ll get me a chair and set down. And now, you all just be reverent and be in prayer. Will you promise me that now? You promise me now that you’ll be in prayer and real reverent. All right. Sonny boy, bring the lady.
