Episode notes
First Deliverance Encounter
- John Thompson recounts a youth sleepover where he discerned a demonic presence and told it to leave in Jesus' name.
- The girl later reported she could only sleep in the living room because of that command, and the trouble ceased after more prayer.
Ask Others To Identify Your Gifts
- Ask people who know you to identify your spiritual gifts rather than relying only on self-tests.
- Use others' feedback and your frustrations in church as clues to where you're gifted.
Security Isn't Safety
- Thompson argues North American theology often separates identity from spiritual conflict, producing 'upstairs' theology but weak 'downstairs' theology.
- He warns salvation secures status but does not guarantee protection from persecution or spiritual attack.
