“Oh, the unspeakable greatness of that exchange,—the Sinless One is condemned, and he who is guilty goes free; the Blessing bears the curse, and the cursed is brought into blessing; the Life dies, and the dead live; the Glory is whelmed in darkness, and he who knew nothing but confusion of face is clothed with glory.”

Reply and my addendum to previous YouTube comment

Jesus is truth
This is an excellent message thank you brother, so rebuking the devil in the name of Jesus is still conversing and instead speaking the word of God only? Very good advice thank you x

It’s never safe to talk to the serpent. He may sound nice or even afraid, but he always speaks with a forked tongue. He makes it appear that he responds to our demands [to leave]. But he immediately reneges and comes right back. I believe their goal is to get us to rely on a means to exorcise them other than by the reception of the Bible’s reproof, correction, and instruction in righteousness. Every other means, even a crucifix, only allows them to bind our minds ever tighter. The only thing that people can use against Satan’s overpowering force is to hear and hope in the truth and grace, precepts and promises, of God’s word. And it must be the person under Satan’s power who drives him out by the authority of Christ through faith in the word of God. This is what happened to you and to all the YouTube testifiers. Truth entered your mind through the Providences of Christ, and when you believed and received the truth then the power of darkness fell and the power of light took over. “Thou hast led captivity captive” (Ps. 68:18). In the presence of Christ, “the Spirit of Christ” (1Pet. 1:11, cf Gal. 4:6), “the Spirit of truth” (John 14:17, cf vs. 6), the devils had to flee from you. “He doeth according to His will in the army of heaven, and among the inhabitants of the earth.” (Dan. 4:35). The hosts of darkness are in torment and rage in the presence of the Prince of infinite, immutable righteousness and self-sacrificing love. There is a spiritual science here, and we get to be the scientists and the guinea pigs.

The word of God has to be understood, loved, and trusted in. This means surrender.
