Hot Potatoes: Are Demons Real, and Should I Be Scared | David Eiffert
Monday, 8 June, 2026
Are demons real? And if they are, should you be scared of them?This week we kicked off the return of our summer series Hot Potatoes, where each week we take one hot topic and talk about it just for the week. First up: demons. It's a topic that fascinates people and terrifies people, and most of what we think we know about it actually comes from Hollywood, not the Bible.In this message we walk right down the middle of two ditches. One ditch pretends none of this is real. The other gets obsessed and scared and weird about it. The goal is to be aware, but not afraid.We work through four things:1. Demons are real. Not Christian lore, not a metaphor. Jesus took them seriously, and fighting demonic influence was front and center in his ministry.2. Demons have already been disarmed. The cross was an eviction. They still try to convince you they have power they no longer have.3. Against a Christ-follower, their only weapon is deception. They can't force you. They can only fool you, and a lie only lands if you believe it.4. You carry Jesus' authority. You are filled with the Spirit, and Jesus put real authority back in your hands.Here's the heart of it: if you and a demon are in the same room, the one who should be scared is the demon, not you.Scriptures we look at: Colossians 2:15, John 12:31, Genesis 3:1, John 8:44, Luke 10:19-20, Hebrews 9:27, and Genesis 1:26.Facebook: / believerscenterInstagram: / believerscenterGiving: https://pushpay.com/g/believerscenterFirst Time: https://believerscenter.churchcenter.com/people/forms/797243Salvation / Rededication: https://believerscenter.churchcenter.com/people/forms/797600#BelieversCenter #HotPotatoes #SpiritualWarfare #Demons #AuthorityThanks so much for listening to the Believers Center podcast!
