Power Over Demons | Matthew 8:28-34 | Pastor Marty Beamer

In this message from Matthew 8:28 to 34, we see Jesus confront the powers of darkness and show that even demons are subject to His authority. This sermon helps us avoid two errors: denying the spiritual realm altogether, or becoming so fixated on it that we go beyond Scripture. The main point is clear: Christ has absolute power over every spiritual force.As Bethel Baptist Church gathered in an unusual setting due to weather and logistics, this message also reminds us why meeting together matters, why the church needs the steady preaching of God’s Word each week, and why we should remember and care for those who are regularly unable to gather with the body.In this sermon, we consider what the Bible teaches about demons, the authority of Jesus, and what spiritual warfare really looks like for ordinary Christians. Scripture points us not to sensationalism, but to simple, faithful obedience: obey, meditate on the Word, pray, and proclaim the gospel.Main passage: Matthew 8:28 to 34In this sermon: Jesus’ authority over demons The reality of the spiritual battle Why Christ is more unsettling to the world than darkness How Christians fight spiritual warfare biblically The call to obedience, prayer, meditation, and gospel proclamationJoin us as we continue our verse by verse study through the Gospel of Matthew.Bethel Baptist Church Kansas City NorthlandMore about Bethel Baptist Church: BethelBaptistChurch.com#BethelBaptistChurch #Matthew8 #SpiritualWarfare #JesusHasAuthority #AuthorityOfChrist #GospelOfMatthew #ExpositoryPreaching #ChristianLiving #BibleTeaching #KansasCityChurch #ChurchOnline #FaithAndTruth #ArmorOfGod #JesusIsLord
