About this episode

The episode explores the biblical perspective on evil spirits and their lack of redemption.

Jesus tells us to love our enemies. To do good for those who hate you. To pray for those who persecute you. Now, He said all this before they invented the Walmart parking lot, but I think it probably still applies for today. However, when it comes to evil spirits, the Bible has a different game plan: we give them no quarter. When it comes to the devil, we don’t take any half measures. Zero tolerance. They don’t get a redemption arc in the Bible’s story, and we aren’t supposed to even let them try. So why the difference? I find this to be weird, and I’d like to explore why it’s in the Bible. And not only that, the book of Enoch is going to show us God’s disposition toward evil spirits as well. If you want to dig into that with me today, turn to Ephesians 6, and let’s get weird.
