Jake Huether Posted October 27, 2003 Posted October 27, 2003 Here ya go... Acts 19: 13 Some Jews who went around driving out evil spirits tried to invoke the name of the Lord Jesus over those who were demon- possessed. They would say, In the name of Jesus, whom Paul preaches, I command you to come out. 14 Seven sons of Sceva, a Jewish chief priest, were doing this. 15 One day the evil spirit answered them, Jesus I know, and I know about Paul, but who are you? 16 Then the man who had the evil spirit jumped on them and overpowered them all. He gave them such a beating that they ran out of the house naked and bleeding. 17 When this became known to the Jews and Greeks living in Ephesus, they were all seized with fear, and the name of the Lord Jesus was held in high honour. We MUST always hold the name of the Lord Jesus in "high honour". That makes me thing... Protestants do Love Jesus. But I think that manytimes (and I don't say that Catholics are an exception) they would like to hold Jesus in a "budy budy" status. Yes, Jesus is our Friend. But for crying out loud, he is our MAKER! I think in many protestant denoms there is exactly that: a lack of holding Jesus name in high honour. Why do you think that when it comes to castin' out the demons Catholic priests are the "go to" guys!? ;)
