About this listen

So far in chapter 4 we have seen Jesus tempted in the wilderness, rejected in his hometown, but now we see Jesus overcome evil by casting out a demon from a man. While we don't understand everything about the spiritual realm, we know that it is real. The incident of Jesus casting out the demon from the man in the synagogue teaches us that: 1 - evil is confrontational to God's plans and His works; 2 - evil attempts to cause as much harm to us as it can; and, 3 - while we should be aware of evil, we do not need to fear evil as we have power in Jesus' name to overcome it too. It is appropriate as we move towards Easter week to remember the central Christian hope that we are promised: a resurrected body just as was witnessed in the risen Lord. Luke 4:31-37
