In Bible study today we looked at this passage...
[13] Then some of the itinerant Jewish exorcists undertook to invoke the name of the Lord Jesus over those who had evil spirits, saying, “I adjure you by the Jesus whom Paul proclaims.” [14] Seven sons of a Jewish high priest named Sceva were doing this. [15] But the evil spirit answered them, “Jesus I know, and Paul I recognize, but who are you?” [16] And the man in whom was the evil spirit leaped on them, mastered all of them and overpowered them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded. [17] And this became known to all the residents of Ephesus, both Jews and Greeks. And fear fell upon them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was extolled.
(Acts 19:13-17 ESV)
I thought it's simply brilliant!! How wonderful that all of creation must acknowledge the authority of God! It may not be now...but one day everyone will see that Jesus is indeed King!
I wondered if maybe others could post verses or passages that they really like? It might be a good way to encourage one another!
