The Real Thing

Have you gone to church time and again looking for answers to life’s questions, but you can’t seem to find them? Does life feel empty to you? Are you hungry for reality?

In Acts 19:10-20 we have the story of the seven sons of Sceva, a Jewish high priest, masquerading as Christians and trying to cast out evil spirits. In verses 15-16, one of the evil spirits rebukes them saying, “Jesus I know, and Paul I recognize, but who are you?”

Those demons who chased off the sons of Sceva were showing the whole world the difference between the reality of the power of God at work in the life of a man versus the fake spirituality of those who have only the appearance of godliness but not the reality of the power of God at work in their own life.
