The Theological System of Casting Out Demons is the Result of Constant Practice

The title of this lecture is, The Perspective of a Demon Expeller, this is the fourth lecture. Regarding the theological system of casting out demons, it is basically a blank. Many people do healing and deliverance, but when it comes to casting out demons, they feel a little embarrassed, especially those who have received higher education. Don't think that I am a high-level intellectual, I talk about casting out demons, but I don't engage in superstitious practices.

In the 《Bible》, casting out demons is a very important theological concept, and it is also a very important component of our Chinese Mingding Destiny. Our Chinese Mingding Destiny is not necessarily completely correct, but if someone wants to challenge me, I can retort with one sentence: what I say is not necessarily correct, but we are not rigid, we are constantly pursuing, seeking, and exploring. You can choose not to accept it, you can disagree with it, this is just our side of the story, but you can examine it.

Chinese Destiny Theology originates from a very important way of thinking, which is closely related to science. Because I am a person who has received higher education, after believing in the Lord, I constantly examine and seek things. Since I knew God, I felt that this was truly a treasure, so I began to desperately read the 《Bible》. So we examine the 《Bible》, and we believe what the 《Bible》 says. If you are studying Chinese medicine, you must know the 《Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine》. If you believe in Jesus, you must know the 《Bible》.

We pray and seek for things that we don't quite understand, and God will reveal to us many existing phenomena. On the road of believing in the Lord, we will find many phenomena that do not conform to the 《Bible》. Some people think that the 《Bible》 is wrong, and they are doing it right. For example, when I was in college, a roommate wrote a program, but the machine could not run it. At that time, programming and debugging programs required punch cards, which was very laborious. He asserted that there must be something wrong with the computer. Two months later, he was about to go crazy. When we checked his program, we found obvious errors.

If we accept that the 《Bible》 is God's truth, then we insist on examining the 《Bible》. Actually, persistence is not important, what is important is implementation. When what we do does not conform to the 《Bible》, or the results we produce are different from what the 《Bible》 says, you have to find the experimental results.

For example, when Jesus cast out demons, some people doubt, why are there no demons in our generation? After reading the 《Bible》, we realized that we didn't understand it, and many problems were caused by demons. Adhering to the truth of the 《Bible》 is an important guiding ideology for us. If you think you are doing it right, you must have results that conform to the 《Bible》, that is, like Jesus. That's why I wrote the book 《Do Healing and Deliverance Like Jesus》.

When we adhere to this truth, we discover many truths that do not conform to the 《Bible》. We constantly correct these deviations, not because we are doing it right, but because the results of our practice are very similar to what the 《Bible》 says. If we practice diligently and implement what the 《Bible》 says, we will find that what the 《Bible》 says is really wonderful, and we will not shirk responsibility like my college classmates.

So practice is the sole criterion for testing truth. If you execute it and find that the results of the practice do not conform to the 《Bible》, then you may not be right. If you find that the results of the practice conform to what the 《Bible》 describes, such as Jesus Christ, then what's wrong with that? No matter which faction it is, I believe there is one thing, being like Jesus is without fault. Our Chinese Mingding Destiny system of casting out demons is a system of continuous practice, continuous implementation, and correction of deviations. When we find that the results of practice are consistent with the 《Bible》, we suddenly realize that this is how it is.

Therefore, our brothers and sisters must know that the results we produce are consistent with the 《Bible》. For example, some time ago, when I led everyone in prayer, there was a cancer patient who had ascites, which was very painful. The hospital refused to admit him. He followed me in prayer, and then began to hiccup and vomit. After that prayer, he felt a lot lighter. If he continues to follow me in prayer, I believe his cancer will be completely healed. Some people challenged me: is this real? You can believe it if you want, and it doesn't matter if you don't want to. If you get cancer, ascites, and are in great pain, you can come to me, there is absolutely no problem.

I think there are many churches that cast out demons, but the Chinese Mingding Destiny way of thinking is not just as simple as casting out demons, but rigorously examining the 《Bible》, rigorously praying and seeking, rigorously explaining phenomena that do not conform to the 《Bible》, and rigorously practicing. This is the origin of Chinese Mingding Destiny.

What we talk about casting out demons is very important! Don't think that just because you can't see ghosts, they don't exist. In fact, the role they play in our lives is very far-reaching. If you are very unlucky in your life, and even drinking cold water makes your teeth hurt, that is the work of demons. If you find that you have a serious illness, that is called a disease demon, and a disease demon is a demon. If you think this is not a demon, but a disease, you should see a doctor. If it gets better, I congratulate you. If it doesn't get better, then good luck to you!

According to my observation, although there are many churches that cast out demons, many churches are driven out by demons as they cast them out. I am very confused, and I want to know the reason behind this. What is the reason behind this? I won't keep you guessing, so I'll tell you the answer. This is the topic I want to share with you: the perspective of a demon expeller. If your perspective is not good, and you see things in the wrong way, how can you have good results?

Some time ago, I met a pastor who brought a very serious mental patient, who was sometimes very manic. During prayer, the mental patient's eyes would widen, which was very scary. The pastor said to me: I'm leaving this person to you! He ran away quickly. After I took over this patient, I began to deal with the demon behind him. The demon was quite powerful, and quite large, but in the end, this demon was completely subdued by me. Why? Because I have a character inside me that persists and never gives up.

Many pastors are driven out by demons as they cast them out, because there is a problem with their perspective, and their view of things does not conform to the 《Bible》. The spiritual perspective that I want to talk about is mainly the spiritual perspective in the Apostle Paul. We know that the devil is our sparring partner, and the 《Bible》 actually predestines us to be victorious. So why are we predestined to be victorious, but we are not victorious? It is because of unbelief, so we cannot endure to the end.

The 《Bible》 says that those who endure to the end will surely be saved. Salvation and victory are basically the same concept, and endurance means not giving up. If you give up growing and give up pursuing, even a sparring partner can defeat you! What God wants is that energy inside us. To describe it in Northeastern dialect: we don't care about anything else, we only care about that energy inside us. Jacob, Joseph, David, and many other sages described in the 《Bible》 were all very strong-willed.

When we talk about the perspective of a demon expeller, it is a spiritual perspective. With a spiritual perspective, we will be like Jacob, Joseph, and David. If we do not have a spiritual perspective, we will easily be deceived. Is God not faithful? God is still faithful. People are all liars, but God is faithful. What does this mean? It means that we must constantly adjust, and our perspective must be the same as God's perspective.

If you are deceived and afflicted with cancer, arthritis, depression, and various diseases, I will say bluntly that you deserve it. Why? Because God's word has already revealed it to us. Especially if Christians still get these diseases, they deserve it even more. It's just that we don't believe, which leads to being deceived and misled. In fact, God's will is like this. Because the 《Bible》 says very clearly: Jesus came to make many people fall and many people rise. Where is the key? The key lies in your perspective, how you see things.

If you don't see things clearly, who can you blame? Are we not reading the same 《Bible》? Whether you are reading the English 《Bible》 or the Chinese 《Bible》, the general meaning is about the same. It is written so clearly in black and white! Jesus cast out demons, and you insist that there are no demons, is this not a problem?

The Apostle Paul's perspective is a perspective that sees through all things. The scripture I quoted below should be familiar to everyone. I have quoted this scripture many times. With a perspective that sees through all things, you will be victorious when you understand it. If you see through it, you will keep casting out demons, casting out the demon king, casting out Satan, and then keep being victorious, just like Jesus Christ. Because we see through all things, the demon king Satan cannot deceive us with anything. He cannot deceive us with money, he cannot deceive us with worldly glory and wealth, he cannot deceive us with bread, he cannot deceive us with food, he cannot deceive us with service, no matter what he uses to deceive us, it is useless.

I think that a large group of brothers and sisters in our generation should become brave warriors who cast out demons, not only casting out small demons, but also casting out the devil Satan. Satan must be very angry after hearing this. When I was casting out demons, Satan said: your logical system is too powerful! The people you meet will be transformed! Yes, because this is God's word, and the foundation of Chinese Mingding Destiny is God's word.

Scripture

But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man. (《1 Corinthians》 2:14-15)

Prayer

Lord Jesus, please speak to us, and may your words enter into each of our hearts, let your words be engraved on our hearts. Let us see this chaotic and contentious generation through your words. Lord, let us be able to see through all things. Let what we speak and what we say be before you, protected by you, edified by you, and blessed by you. In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen!

The Corinthians Were Deceived by a False Gospel

The background of this passage is very interesting. There is a place called Corinth, which is a big city. Paul stayed there for a year and a half and established a church called the Corinthian Church. Later, Paul left and went to another place. There was a group of people, but we don't quite know what kind of people they were. They were probably a group of people who could talk but couldn't do, and were not very good at casting out demons. They couldn't solve any problems, but they were good at talking.

There are many people in this generation who can talk. Throughout history, liars are the best at talking. Adam and Eve were deceived by the ancient serpent. This generation is similar to the generation of the Corinthian Church. Many people are often deceived. After being deceived, they think that the Apostle Paul deceived them. In fact, the Apostle Paul did not take advantage of them in any way. How could they say that they were deceived? I am also a little puzzled. Paul lived frugally, worked with his own hands, made money to support himself, and served them. How did things go wrong?

It turned out that a group of people came who did not have the power to solve people's problems, or to cast out demons. The great power of the Holy Spirit is to cast out demons, and a spiritual person sees through all things. I wrote a study book on 《1 Corinthians》, called 《A Spiritual Person Sees Through All Things》. This book is very good, but it doesn't sell well. So I took the opportunity to place a small advertisement. Those with money can support me with money, and those with people can support me with people. I think the purpose is not to support me, but that this book will really make you see through many things. The theme of 《1 Corinthians》 is that a spiritual person sees through all things. If you can't figure out many things, you must read this book.

This is the background of 1 Corinthians. The Corinthians were deceived, so Paul wrote the letter of 《1 Corinthians》 and sent it to the Corinthians. After the Corinthians were deceived, they challenged many of the Apostle Paul's ideas. Paul's main starting point was the issue of perspective. When you have a spiritual perspective, it brings spiritual authority. Don't go casting out demons just because your father is the chief priest. As a result, when you cast out demons, like what is described in 《Acts》, the demons jump on those people, strip them of their clothes, and they run around in the streets like mental patients.

Therefore, the ability to cast out demons is very important, and the ability to cast out demons is a key component of a pure gospel. Because the kingdom of God is not in word, but in power. These are the words in 《1 Corinthians》. In fact, demons are not only our sparring partners, but also a very good touchstone for testing our state of belief. The devil is a very dutiful discipline inspection commission. If you are corrupt, you will be caught. The devil is very dutiful and doesn't rest 24 hours a day.

Casting out demons is actually not just a matter of being a sparring partner, but also a key component of testing our faith. It is the devil that tests our faith. The situations we people encounter are not much different, but some people are deceived and some are not. Many people have lost faith in the powerful gospel. The background of 《1 Corinthians》 is that those people preached a powerless gospel. It is still the same today. Many people preach a powerless gospel and still think it is orthodox, which I find very puzzling.

The 《Bible》 is written so clearly in black and white, how can people be so easily deceived? Many people think that it is normal to have no power after believing in the Lord, but I tell you, you are suffering a great loss. We must not be deceived by these false gospels, because the power of this gospel is really great. 《Romans》 and 《1 Corinthians》 are both talking about this powerful gospel. Paul wrote 《1 Corinthians》 and 《2 Corinthians》, and its theme is that spiritual people see through all things.

Paul used power as an argument. Why do I connect this with casting out demons? This is not difficult to understand. Why could Paul confront those who came to make trouble? What ability did he have? Paul had a special ability, which was the power in the Holy Spirit! This power in the Holy Spirit is the casting out of demons! You may argue with me and say: I did not see casting out demons in the Corinthian epistles. But Paul said: For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God. This power is actually used for casting out demons!

Many pastors today are not even as good as witches. Witches can still perform some miracles, but these pastors run away when they see witches. We must know that witches cannot defeat us, and the miracles we perform are always much more powerful than those of witches. This is clear evidence of the great power of the Holy Spirit. We must all carefully rethink this matter, and think about whether our faith is not in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.

The things that 《1 Corinthians》 talks about, or the things that the 《Bible》 talks about, are not words taught by human wisdom, but words taught by the Holy Spirit, explaining spiritual things with spiritual words. The scripture is written like this:

Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God. Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual. But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man. (《1 Corinthians》 2:12-15)

In chapter 4, Paul said again:

But I will come to you shortly, if the Lord will, and will know, not the speech of them which are puffed up, but the power. For the kingdom of God is not in word, but in power. (《1 Corinthians》 4:19-20)

The kingdom of God is not in word, but in power. How does the kingdom of God come? It is that wherever we cast out demons by the Spirit of God, there the kingdom of God comes. Therefore, the kingdom of God is not in word, but in power. Is this not referring to casting out demons? Moreover, the Jesus Christ we believe in is the Jesus who casts out demons, and the disciples he trained are all disciples who cast out demons. Therefore, casting out demons can effectively check our perspective and how well we believe in the Lord.

Our brothers and sisters should understand that Paul's gospel is a gospel of great power, and the gospel that Jesus preached is a gospel of great power. Casting out demons can solve many problems. If you are not a mighty warrior who casts out demons today, I can tell you that you are suffering a great loss.

Imitate the Apostle Paul and See Through All Things in the World

Why can Paul walk around and confront people? Because the kingdom of God is not in word, but in power! Paul is like this wherever he goes. Many people can't stand it, but even if they can't stand it, Paul has to do it. In fact, I also do it this way. Why did Paul have such great ability to cast out demons? When we read 《Acts》, we see what Paul did is simply amazing. His handkerchiefs and the shadows of his body casually cast on people, and they were healed. The key lies in perspective, perspective is very critical, and a spiritual perspective can see through all things. If you can't see through all things, you will be driven out by demons as you cast them out, do you believe it? If you don't believe it, try it.

Some time ago, a pastor insisted on learning how to cast out demons from me. At first, it was pretty good, and he told me many miracles. Then many problems began to appear in the church. Why? Because some people were very opposed to it, especially the leaders he established, and many deacons in the church were very opposed to casting out demons. The pastor wanted to buy property, and they were the elders of the church, and all the church's offerings depended on them. If you can't see through life and death, it is difficult to persevere.

If you are determined, thinking that you won't die anyway, and even if you die, it's okay, it's even better. If you are not a person who disregards your life, it is difficult for you to persevere. People like me are single-minded, running straight towards the goal, this is my destiny. I have no weaknesses, there is nothing to pinch me. When you come to me, I don't care how much money you donate, you can't pinch me, I will pinch the demons on you instead.

Therefore, perspective is very important. If Paul did not have these perspectives, could not see through money, could not see through marriage, could not see through family, could not see through eating and drinking, could not see through this life, could not see through eternal life, did not know the resurrection of the dead, did not know gifts, and did not know the love of God. Praying in tongues, praying with understanding, a mess. The concepts of preaching, prayer, and salvation were all confused, and he also loved money, and people sought their own interests, and he was driven out by demons as he cast them out.

Paul had such great ability to cast out demons because he saw through all these things. Today, the things you are living through have been seen through by Paul, so he can cast out demons. Our Lord Jesus also saw through these things. God's will is that everyone should be like Jesus, and everyone should be like the Apostle Paul. Jesus said, you should imitate me. The Apostle Paul said, you should imitate me. So I also boldly say to everyone, you should imitate me.

Recently, I received a friend. When I was driving him to the airport, he said to me: I used to think that you were just doing business to make some money. This time I found that it was not the case. I asked him what he saw, and he said: you are really playing with your life! Indeed, if you don't play with your life, can you cast out demons? We all have to play with our lives! When did the Apostle Paul ever seek his own interests? Actually, he didn't. I also imitate the Apostle Paul, although I don't imitate him so well, but overall it's okay. I will share with you what the Apostle Paul saw through.

The Purpose of Life is to Build God's Glorious Church

The Apostle Paul saw through the purpose of life. What was his purpose in life? The Apostle Paul received what is called Mingding Destiny; he was to build God's glorious church. In 1 Corinthians, he said that he was like a wise master builder, leading a group of people to build God's glorious church; this was his purpose in life. People must thoroughly study why they live. If you cannot study it thoroughly, you can go to hospitals and nursing homes to observe.

Some time ago, I wanted to open a nursing home but later decided not to. When I went to the nursing home, I was simply stunned; it was full of elderly people with various tubes inserted. I felt that this was not a nursing home but a waiting-to-die home! I thought to myself: God, I must be careful about this matter; I do not want to be like this when I am old. Do not say that this matter will not happen to you; it is not up to you to decide. I think this way: I will serve my God until the last day before I die; I will live for God my whole life; I will imitate the Apostle Paul my whole life, build God's glorious church, and build the body of Christ. I want to imitate the Lord Jesus and offer myself completely; I do not want to live for myself anymore!

Since I was young, I wanted to die. I studied well since I was young, but I felt that life was meaningless; I could not find the meaning of life. People study, work, get married, have children, and then grow old. Then it is their son's turn to get married, and then... Some people do not even wait for the then before they are gone. I really cannot understand what people are doing to live for these things. Especially when we read about the emperors of the Tang, Song, Qin, and Han dynasties, and Genghis Khan, people live and then die; it really has no meaning.

After I believed in the Lord, I discovered that life had some meaning after all. What is living for? Living is actually very simple: it is to be a blessing to others. I also discovered that the spiritual realm spoken of in the 《Bible》 is so powerful, and Jesus is so powerful! I longed to live like Jesus. When I first came into contact with the faith of Jesus Christ, I felt that casting out demons was a very good thing.

When I was a senior executive at the university, I solved a lot of problems. For example, with mental illness, if students go to a mental hospital, their lives are ruined. Doctors cannot cure them, but when I cast out demons, they get better. I feel that I have obtained a glorious Mingding Destiny to build God's glorious church; this is my vision. Some people ask, how do you know it is so good? Because I can solve problems, are you not surprised? The problems I solve are clear evidence of the power of the Holy Spirit. The results have already proven it; what is there to argue about? Today, you must know that living for God is good, but living for oneself is not so good; the facts have also proven that this is indeed the case.

Once, I was chatting with some friends. One friend said that the leader of the square dance group, who was the wife of a college leader's brother, collapsed at the bottom of the building before she even got home. Her husband rushed down from upstairs and tried to rescue her for two minutes, but it was in vain. Who knew that just doing square dance would lead to never returning home? Another friend said that their leader had many similarities with this woman, such as health preservation, healthcare, eating organic food, playing various balls, and exercising, but he suddenly died last month.

I think these things are really interesting! People can live not for God, but the results do not look good. It is difficult for us to understand this; how can people be so fragile? No one should have died except him, right? But why is that not the case? Because he did not get it right. Everyone is surprised; how could such good maintenance lead to sudden death? This is a matter of vision.

I must tell everyone this: you can live well for yourself, but the results are not up to you. Who does not want to live well? But someone like me does not want to live well, yet I live quite well. Because I could not find the meaning of life, I went to find it, and I really found it. I said, God, I thank you all my life! Because of the salvation you accomplished for me on the cross, and because you suffered for me, bore my sorrows, carried my iniquities, and took the stripes for my diseases, and resurrected from the dead, and gave us the power of His resurrection!

If you have not figured out the matter of living, what awaits you is sickness. As the saying goes: nothing is worse than being without money, and nothing is worse than being sick. If all you have left is sickness, then it is troublesome. Our God has already solved the problem of sickness; by Jesus' stripes, we are healed; this is the word of the 《Bible》. Today, we witness with our own eyes the power of Jesus' resurrection coming upon us; no matter how big the problem or how serious the disease, it is child's play before God.

Subdue My Body and Make It My Slave

Why did Paul have such great power to cast out demons? The first point is that he saw through the purpose of life, taking the building of God's glorious church as his purpose in life. The second point is to subdue my body and make it my slave. Why are people chased by demons while casting out demons? Because they did not subdue their bodies and make them their slaves. There is something inside people called sin. In 《Genesis》, God said to Cain: Sin is crouching at your door; it desires to have you, but you must master it. As a result, Cain did not master sin but was mastered by sin. Why is it not a demon at your door but sin at your door? Because the sin inside people is inherent from birth, and inherent preferences are called catering to the flesh.

The 《Bible》 says that the heart of a fool is on the left, but whose heart is not on the left? So people are naturally foolish. The heart of the wise is on the right, but whose heart is on the right? So spiritual people have their hearts on the right. The 《Bible》 describes that foolish people are very common, but wise people are too few. In Paul's theological system, there is a concept that catering to the flesh is death.

Today we arrange many things for the flesh, including maintenance and fitness, but these things are ineffective; only casting out demons is effective. If we cater to the flesh, from a spiritual perspective, catering to the flesh is death, and catering to the flesh will attract demons. If we cannot subdue our bodies and make them our slaves, and cannot master sin, then we are a naturally demon-attracting body. So when demons come, they take away the spirit, and the person is finished.

Many people in the Corinthian church were carnal, spiritual infants, and living in sin, and many died tragically. They also wrote to Paul, saying that the gospel Paul preached was incorrect and ineffective. The Apostle Paul said: You are living in sin; you are carnal people. This is a problem of logic; carnal people arrange things very well for the flesh. If you want to cast out demons but cannot deal with the flesh, you will eventually be chased by demons.

There are many carnal things, including strife, anger, selfishness, ingratitude, and so on. If you want to cast out demons but do not deal with carnal passions and desires, you will eventually be chased by demons. We must know that casting out demons is a very good validation. If you are a pastor, listen to my advice: you must deal with your own flesh.

I have encountered very many pastors who cater to the flesh. For example, I once met a pastor who always turned off his phone after 10 pm. Once, I went to serve with him, and I could not go back that night because the child I was serving had many problems, and I served until 12 o'clock. Around 11 pm, I called the pastor, but I could not get through no matter how I called. I thought that maybe his phone was out of power. To my surprise, when I asked the next day, he said that he always turned off his phone at 10 pm. Why? Because he wanted to ensure he got a good night's sleep. Later, I figured out that the reason he had so many illnesses was because he catered to his flesh so much.

When people cater to the flesh, they are only catering to their eating, drinking, excretion, and sleeping. My body is not bad; I do not care what I eat or drink, nor do I care how long I sleep. Sometimes I work until 12 am and then realize that I have not eaten all day! My colleagues say that I am simply neglecting food and sleep! Behind eating, drinking, excretion, and sleeping is an old horse, and this old horse is quite powerful. Some people are very concerned about eating and drinking.

Some time ago, someone I was ministering to asked me if they could take medicine. It does not matter whether you take it or not. The key is what you care about inside. Some people ask me if they can eat; then eat if you want to, and do not eat if you do not want to. According to statistics, those who care about eating and drinking have very serious problems, and the results are quite tragic. To what extent did these people in the Corinthian church cater to the flesh? To the extent that they even fought over the Lord's Supper! They deliberately emptied their stomachs on the day of the Lord's Supper, and when it came to the Lord's Supper, it was as if they were eating a feast; everyone was fighting to eat, with a very ugly and disgusting appearance.

Paul wrote to the Corinthian church, telling them about these problems. Paul used himself as an example; he subdued his body and made it his slave. Paul saw through that catering to the flesh is death. Brothers and sisters, if you are a carnal person, do not go around casting out demons recklessly. If you cast out demons recklessly, you will be chased by demons. If you do not cast out demons, demons will still chase you, let alone if you cast them out! This is the second point of why Paul had such great power to cast out demons: because Paul was not carnal.

How did Paul deal with it? In 《Romans》, it is written that he put to death the misdeeds of the body by the Spirit. In fact, some churches today hold a happiness group at every gathering, with food and drink, attracting people with food and drink. I have done this before, and I was severely disciplined by God. This is very disgusting. Jesus Christ attracts all people to trust in Him because Jesus Christ casts out demons by the power of the Holy Spirit. Casting out demons solves many of our problems.

It is a blessing for brothers and sisters today to receive our Chinese Mingding Destiny! Because we have really solved many problems for everyone. For example, with intellectual disabilities, a child who was 5+4=8 in our midst has now recovered; his arithmetic is now very clear, and he is doing well at work and can earn money. Conditions such as depression and cancer have been recovered in our midst. For this gospel is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes. God wants to show His grace and mercy, so that our faith may not rest on eloquent wisdom, but on the demonstration of God's power.

Seeing Through Wealth, Marriage, and Family

Paul talked a lot about wealth, family, and marriage in 《1 Corinthians》. Paul helped them establish a church in Corinth and should have received a salary, but Paul did not want those people to misunderstand him, so he did not take a salary. He supported himself by making tents, which sold quite well, not only supporting himself but also supporting his colleagues. Paul did not have such great greed. If people do not understand wealth, they cannot cast out demons. What happens when you cast out demons? You are bound by wealth, and you will be in trouble after casting out demons; the devil will definitely move your money bag.

If you see through wealth, the devil cannot move you. Why? Because you see through it. Do not think that if you are afraid of dogs, dogs will stay away from you. The more you fear dogs, the more you attract dogs. Those who are not afraid of dogs, dogs will avoid them. The more you are afraid of having no money, the more you have no money. The more you see through wealth, the more money people will have. But not all who are wealthy have seen through wealth. To cast out demons, you must see through wealth, see through marriage, and see through family.

Paul supported himself by earning money with his own hands. He could have not earned money and relied on the church, but he did not rely on it. After the Apostle Paul saw through things, it was difficult for the devil to deceive him. Like our Lord Jesus, the devil showed Jesus Christ the glory of the world. Jesus answered decisively, and the devil withdrew. Because Jesus saw through the glory of the world. If we do not see through things, if you love money, you will be in trouble.

I have met some pastors who are very sad when they think about how poor their children are. Why? Because they do not see through wealth. It is also deadly not to see through marriage and family. Many churches today have difficulty casting out demons because they value marriage and family too much. If you cast out demons, the devil will first disturb your family. Please, brothers and sisters, do not stop wanting to cast out demons after listening to me. If you do not cast out demons, you will be chased by demons even more. Being afraid is useless; you have to solve the problem. The 《Bible》 has already spoken very clearly：

“Who is my mother, and who are my brothers?” Then he looked at those seated in a circle around him and said, “Here are my mother and my brothers! Whoever does God’s will is my brother and sister and mother.” (《Mark》 3:33-35)

God has spoken clearly and plainly in the 《Bible》. When you do not care, you can cast out demons. Otherwise, what can you do? If you live for your wife or for your husband, then do not cast out demons. If you are chased by demons, do not blame me for not telling you. In fact, it is difficult to live a small life. How could the devil let you live well? It is impossible for him to let you live well.

Paul spent a lot of space in 《1 Corinthians》 discussing marriage, and many churches have violated the teachings of the 《Bible》 on this matter. Some churches desperately act as marriage agencies. Can a marriage agency become a church mother? Can it become a powerful army of God? Can a marriage agency cast out demons? No. Whatever you value will become your shackles.

Everyone must know for sure what kind of person is the most powerful: it is someone who does not care about anything but only cares about the kingdom of God. Did we come into this world to live for our families? If you live for your family, the devil will definitely touch your family. When the devil touches your family, you will be at a loss, you will be very tired, and you will give up the battle. Brothers and sisters, we must know that each person has their own destiny. What is your destiny? You cannot control the destiny of your own family.

As for us, we will not be controlled by these things. Nothing, no one can stop us from serving God, because serving God is our purpose in coming into this world! Building God's glorious church is our purpose! Becoming a blessing to this generation is our purpose! Becoming the salvation of our family is our purpose!

Therefore, brothers and sisters, we must know that casting out demons is a battle of wits and courage. If the devil takes your family hostage to threaten you, are you going to surrender? Surrendering will give you even less of a chance. So we are captured by the devil in our battle with the devil because of our lack of trust in God. If a person trusts in God, God will definitely save us.

If our family members are unwilling to do the will of our Father in heaven, then let them be. What can we do? It is their own choice; we cannot make choices for them. But our family members will not become our obstacles; we will definitely become the salvation of our family. Even today, I still believe that God will bless my family because of me, because our God controls all things in the universe. May God have mercy!

Climbing to Spiritual Heights and Entering the Garden of God's Love

Chinese Mingding Destiny speaks the truth, but not all truths are at the same level. Paul distinguished the priorities of spiritual truths very clearly. For example, the Apostle Paul spent an entire chapter talking about the love of the Father. He said that he would tell you the most excellent way, which is the love of the Father. God's love is the love of the Father. The highest realm of striking the demonic enemy is called the love of the Father. You will see the garden of the Father's love. We can love the people of the world and love them unconditionally; that is the love of the Father. The highest realm of striking the demonic enemy is called the love of the Father.

So today we begin to fight and climb upwards continuously. If we climb to the top of the mountain, we will see the garden of the Father's love. At that level, the power to strike the demonic enemy is simply shocking; that is the highest realm. If we can love our enemies and love the people of this world unconditionally, that is the love of the Father.

Today, in healing and deliverance, we have the best way to release the Father's love. Because people are not willing to be disturbed by illness, and the disturbance of illness makes people very tired. Our God is full of grace and mercy. He had Jesus Christ bear our sorrows and carry our sins, and by His wounds we are healed. This is God's great grace. Healing the sick and casting out demons are important parts of the gospel of Jesus Christ. The most important thing in releasing the Father's love is in healing the sick and casting out demons.

Paul saw the priorities of these truths very clearly. He said that prayer, tongues, and preaching will all pass away in the future. When we come before God and enter eternity, these things will all pass away, but God's love will last forever. Now these three remain: faith, hope, and love. We must see clearly the levels of spiritual truth and understand which truth is the most important truth. We must know that the highest realm we pursue is the love of the Father.

If we climb to spiritual heights and see things clearly: knowing for sure the concepts of salvation, prayer, and sanctification, knowing that these are low-level truths; the highest level of truth is the love of the Father; then the power of casting out demons will definitely be like the explosion of an atomic bomb. For example, the 《Bible》 and the Holy Spirit, the 《Bible》 and the Holy Spirit cannot be separated. We must both read the 《Bible》 and be filled with the Holy Spirit. Some people think that if they are filled with the Holy Spirit, they do not need to read the 《Bible》; this is very deceptive. We need both ability and power, and we also need the word of God; we need both eternal life and this life, because eternal life begins in this life; we need both understanding prayer and speaking in tongues. These all have their respective levels.

The 《Bible》 says that you should pursue love, pursue the love of the Father, but you should also earnestly desire spiritual gifts. Although the love of the Father is the highest spiritual level, we still need to earnestly desire spiritual gifts. Without spiritual gifts, how can we serve? If you do not see the priorities of spiritual truth and cannot climb upward continuously in the levels of spiritual truth, and cannot climb to the level of the Father's love, I tell you that one day in the future, Jesus will say that He does not know you. Why does Jesus say that He does not know those who cast out demons? Because they do not have the love that comes from God within them.

Today, we brothers and sisters must re-understand these truths and form a complete system within us. Chinese Mingding Destiny is a complete system for building this system. We continue to climb forward as we cast out demons, and the devil can no longer deceive us. The devil's deceptiveness has nothing in us. Let us continue to pursue until we grow to the full stature of Jesus Christ.

Conclusion

Brothers and sisters, we must see through wealth, health, disease, interpersonal relationships, business, work, life, family, marriage, and all things related to our lives. A spiritual person can see through all things, but no one can see through him, because we receive spiritual words, and we explain spiritual things with spiritual things. God's power will surely be manifested through us to shake this generation! This generation will restore the truth of the 《Bible》 and the power of this gospel in an unprecedented way!

May God bless everyone!
