A Biblical Study of Demons in People, Places and Things
There are two dangerous extremes concerning demons.
One extreme says:
“There are no demons. Everything has a natural explanation.”
The other extreme sees demons everywhere:
A headache becomes a demon.
A difficult neighbour becomes a demon.
A broken appliance becomes a demon.
A strange dream becomes a demon.
An old piece of furniture becomes demon-possessed.
Neither approach is biblical.
Jesus Christ clearly believed in the reality of demons. He confronted them, commanded them, cast them out and gave His disciples authority over them.
Yet Scripture also distinguishes demonic oppression from ordinary disease and other human problems.
Matthew 4:24 KJV says:
“And his fame went throughout all Syria: and they brought unto him all sick people that were taken with divers diseases and torments, and those which were possessed with devils, and those which were lunatick, and those that had the palsy; and he healed them.”
Notice the distinctions: diseases, torments, demonisation, neurological or mental afflictions described in the language of the period, and paralysis are not simply collapsed into one category. Matthew 10:1 similarly distinguishes authority over unclean spirits from healing sickness and disease.
Therefore:
Not everything is a demon.
But equally:
Demons are real.
And believers must understand what Scripture actually teaches about them.
1. WHAT DOES THE BIBLE MEAN BY “DEMON”?
The King James Version frequently uses the word “devils” where the Greek New Testament has words related to daimonion—a demon or evil spiritual being.
The New Testament also uses expressions such as:
- unclean spirit;
- evil spirit;
- demon/devil;
- spirit of divination;
- deaf and dumb spirit;
- spirit of infirmity.
Academic treatments of New Testament demonology confirm this overlapping vocabulary: daimonion, pneuma akatharton—“unclean spirit”—and pneuma poneron—“evil spirit.”
The biblical picture is therefore not primarily of hundreds of demons identified by individual names.
It is much more often a picture of evil spiritual personalities operating under Satan’s kingdom and opposing God’s purposes.
2. SATAN IS NOT SIMPLY ANOTHER ORDINARY DEMON
The Bible presents Satan as the great adversary and leader of the kingdom of darkness.
He is described as:
- Satan;
- the devil;
- the wicked one;
- the tempter;
- the accuser;
- the adversary;
- the great dragon;
- the old serpent.
Jesus spoke about Satan as possessing a kingdom.
If Satan cast out Satan, Jesus explained, his kingdom would be divided.
Therefore, we should distinguish between Satan himself and the multitude of evil spiritual beings associated with his kingdom.
Ephesians 6:10-12 KJV says:
“Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.
Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.”
Paul therefore presents an organised spiritual opposition involving different descriptions of supernatural powers. We should be careful, however, about turning every expression—“principality,” “power,” “ruler”—into a speculative rank in an elaborate hierarchy that Scripture itself never explains.
3. THE SHEDIM — DEMONS IN THE OLD TESTAMENT
One of the clearest Hebrew words translated “demons” is שֵׁד — shed, plural shedim.
It occurs explicitly in connection with pagan sacrifice.
Deuteronomy 32:17 KJV
“They sacrificed unto devils, not to God; to gods whom they knew not, to new gods that came newly up, whom your fathers feared not.”
Psalm 106:37 KJV
“Yea, they sacrificed their sons and their daughters unto devils.”
The significant biblical point is not that Israel was supposed to investigate these beings and discover all their names.
The warning is that idolatry can involve interaction with real powers of darkness.
This becomes especially important when Paul discusses idolatry in the New Testament.
Bible dictionaries and lexical studies identify shedim in these Old Testament passages as supernatural beings associated with illicit worship.
4. THE SE’IRIM — “DEVILS” OR GOAT-LIKE SPIRITS
Another Hebrew expression is se’irim, literally connected with hairy or goat-like beings.
Leviticus 17:7 KJV says:
“And they shall no more offer their sacrifices unto devils, after whom they have gone a whoring. This shall be a statute for ever unto them throughout their generations.”
Ancient Jewish interpretation and some biblical scholarships have understood these as wilderness or goat-demons. Older Bible dictionaries often classify se’irim alongside shedim.
But Christians should be careful here.
The Bible does not tell believers to build an elaborate doctrine around goat demons.
The central message remains:
Do not worship, sacrifice to, seek or cooperate with spiritual beings other than God.
5. UNCLEAN SPIRITS
This is perhaps the most common terminology encountered during Jesus’ earthly ministry.
Mark 1 records a man in the synagogue with an unclean spirit.
The remarkable thing is that the spirit recognised Jesus.
Demons know something about spiritual realities.
They recognised His identity and His authority.
But knowledge about Jesus is not salvation.
James even makes this striking statement:
“Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble.”
Demons possess knowledge, but they remain rebellious against God.
6. “LEGION”
Perhaps the most dramatic example of demonisation appears in Mark 5.
Mark 5:8-9 KJV says:
“For he said unto him, Come out of the man, thou unclean spirit.
And he asked him, What is thy name? And he answered, saying, My name is Legion: for we are many.”
“Legion” should not necessarily be treated as the proper personal name of a demon.
The explanation is contained directly in the statement:
“for we are many.”
The man was afflicted by multiple demons.
What is most important in the account is not their numerical strength.
It is Christ’s absolute authority over them.
One command from Jesus was greater than an entire legion.
That should shape Christian demonology.
The Bible’s emphasis is not the greatness of demons. It is the supremacy of Jesus Christ.
7. THE SPIRIT OF DIVINATION
Acts gives one of the clearest examples of an evil spirit operating through occult supernatural activity.
Acts 16:16-18 KJV says:
“And it came to pass, as we went to prayer, a certain damsel possessed with a spirit of divination met us, which brought her masters much gain by soothsaying:
The same followed Paul and us, and cried, saying, These men are the servants of the most high God, which shew unto us the way of salvation.
And this did she many days. But Paul, being grieved, turned and said to the spirit, I command thee in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her. And he came out the same hour.”
The Greek terminology behind “divination” here is associated with Python, a term carrying associations with the ancient Greek oracular world.
But notice something extraordinarily important.
The demon was saying something factually true.
“These men are the servants of the most high God.”
Yet Paul still rejected its testimony.
Truth spoken through an occult source does not make the source righteous.
This is why Christians should avoid:
- fortune-telling;
- mediums;
- spiritists;
- séances;
- tarot divination;
- necromancy;
- occult consultation;
- attempts to contact spirits;
- psychic practices seeking supernatural knowledge outside God.
The solution Paul used was remarkably simple:
“I command thee in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her.”
No incantation.
No magical object.
No negotiation.
No elaborate ceremony.
Christ’s authority was sufficient.
8. DEAF AND DUMB SPIRITS
Mark 9 records another manifestation.
Jesus addressed the spirit according to the manifestation occurring in the afflicted boy:
“Thou dumb and deaf spirit.”
This demonstrates that demons may produce particular forms of affliction.
But this passage must never be turned into the doctrine that every deaf person, every person unable to speak, or every neurological illness is demonic.
The wider Gospel testimony prevents such a conclusion because Scripture distinguishes sickness from demonisation.
This distinction is crucial.
Christians should pray boldly while refusing to falsely accuse suffering people.
9. THE “SPIRIT OF INFIRMITY”
Luke describes a woman who had been bowed over for eighteen years and says she had a “spirit of infirmity.”
Jesus later said Satan had bound her.
That demonstrates that some physical affliction may have spiritual involvement.
But again, “some” must never become “all.”
Jesus healed many ordinary illnesses without addressing demons.
Therefore, biblical discernment refuses two errors:
Naturalism: “Demons never cause anything.”
and
Superstition: “Demons cause everything.”
Biblical Christianity recognises both spiritual and natural realities.
10. EVIL SPIRITS
The expression “evil spirit” occurs in both Testaments.
Some Old Testament passages are particularly complex because they describe an evil or troubling spirit operating under God’s sovereign judgment.
Those passages should not automatically be converted into lists of named demons for modern deliverance ministry.
For example, Scripture occasionally speaks of a “lying spirit” in a judicial scene involving false prophets.
That does not justify inventing a demon called “The Lying Spirit” and assuming every liar has that demon.
People can lie because they choose to lie.
Human sin does not require a demon behind every sinful act.
Jesus said evil things can proceed from the human heart.
Spiritual warfare is real, but so is human responsibility.
11. BEELZEBUB
Beelzebub or Beelzebul appears in the Gospels as the figure whom Jesus’ opponents called “the prince of the devils.”
In the argument that follows, Jesus speaks about Satan and Satan’s kingdom.
Therefore, in that context, Beelzebub is closely associated with the satanic ruler of the demonic kingdom.
Again, Scripture does not encourage believers to become fascinated with infernal personalities.
It reveals an opposing kingdom and Christ’s superior authority.
12. WHAT ABOUT “FAMILIAR SPIRITS”?
The King James Bible repeatedly warns Israel against people who had “familiar spirits.”
This terminology is associated with mediums and attempts to communicate with the dead or spirits.
It therefore belongs principally to Scripture’s prohibition of occult practices.
Christians must never attempt to contact deceased relatives, spirit guides or supposed supernatural counsellors.
Our access to the supernatural realm is through God, not through forbidden spiritual intermediaries.
13. WHAT ABOUT LILITH?
This subject requires considerable caution.
Isaiah 34:14 contains a difficult Hebrew term lilit.
The KJV renders part of the verse:
“The wild beasts of the desert shall also meet with the wild beasts of the island, and the satyr shall cry to his fellow; the screech owl also shall rest there, and find for herself a place of rest.”
Some modern translations render the relevant expression “Lilith” or “night creature.”
Later Jewish tradition developed an extensive mythology surrounding a female demon called Lilith.
But much of the popular story surrounding Lilith—including elaborate stories concerning Adam—comes from literature much later than Genesis.
Therefore, Christians should not preach later Lilith mythology as though Genesis teaches it.
The Dead Sea Scroll material does contain Lilith language in demonological contexts, showing that the concept existed in Second Temple Jewish tradition. But that is historical evidence of ancient Jewish demonology, not permission to add extra-biblical doctrines to Scripture.
14. WHAT ABOUT AZAZEL?
Leviticus 16 speaks concerning the Day of Atonement of one goat “for the LORD” and another “for Azazel” in some translations, while the KJV renders the expression in connection with the scapegoat.
Later Jewish writings developed Azazel into a prominent evil supernatural personality.
However, the exact meaning of the Hebrew expression in Leviticus remains debated.
Therefore, Christians should distinguish:
what Leviticus actually says
from
what later Jewish demonology says about Azazel.
We should never build Christian deliverance doctrine upon a debated interpretation when Scripture itself does not require it.
15. WHAT ABOUT ASMODEUS?
Those using Catholic or Orthodox biblical canons will encounter Asmodeus in the book of Tobit.
Asmodeus is an explicitly named demon associated with Sarah’s story.
However, Tobit belongs to the Deuterocanonical/Apocryphal books and is not part of the 66-book Protestant canon.
That distinction should be stated rather than hidden.
Even where Tobit is received as Scripture in another Christian tradition, there is still no biblical command to develop elaborate demon-name catalogues from the story.
16. WHAT DO THE DEAD SEA SCROLLS TELL US?
The Dead Sea Scrolls are extremely useful because they allow us to see aspects of Jewish belief in the centuries surrounding the New Testament world.
The official Leon Levy Dead Sea Scrolls Digital Library preserves and makes available thousands of scroll fragments, including biblical and non-biblical texts.
Several Qumran compositions contain significant demonological material.
Among them are 4Q510 and 4Q511, often called the Songs of the Sage or Songs of the Maskil.
Scholars identify language concerning evil spirits, destroying angels, demonic beings and Lilith within this material. Another text, 11Q11, contains compositions commonly discussed in connection with exorcism or protection against evil spirits, although scholars continue debating precisely how parts of the ritual language should be interpreted.
The Scrolls therefore demonstrate something important:
Jesus entered a Jewish world in which discussion about evil spirits was already well developed.
Yet the contrast is striking.
Some ancient texts contain protective formulas and complicated demonological language.
Jesus normally says simply:
“Come out.”
The authority is not located in the complexity of the ritual.
The authority is located in the Person exercising the authority.
For Christians, that Person is Jesus Christ.
17. WHERE DID DEMONS COME FROM?
Here we must distinguish Scripture from later theories.
A widespread Second Temple Jewish explanation, reflected particularly in literature associated with 1 Enoch and related traditions, held that evil spirits were connected with the dead offspring of the rebellious Watchers and human women.
Modern scholarship often treats this as important background to Jewish and early Christian demonology.
However, Genesis 6 itself does not explicitly say:
“The spirits of the dead Nephilim became demons.”
Therefore, that theory may illuminate the world surrounding the New Testament, but Christians should not pretend the canonical Bible states more than it actually states.
The Bible leaves some questions unanswered.
That is important.
Where God has chosen not to give exhaustive information, Christians do not need to manufacture certainty.
18. CAN A DEMON BE IN A PERSON?
Yes.
This is unquestionably biblical.
The Gospels repeatedly describe people afflicted or inhabited by demons.
Mark 5 is one of the strongest examples.
Matthew 10:1 KJV says:
“And when he had called unto him his twelve disciples, he gave them power against unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all manner of sickness and all manner of disease.”
Therefore, deliverance from demons is a genuine biblical ministry.
But it must be conducted biblically, compassionately and responsibly.
A suffering person must never become a spectacle.
Jesus came to liberate people, not humiliate them.
19. HOW SHOULD A CHRISTIAN DEAL WITH A DEMON OPERATING IN A PERSON?
The New Testament pattern gives several principles.
First: Depend upon Jesus Christ.
Deliverance is not a demonstration of human spiritual importance.
Christ has already defeated the powers of darkness.
Colossians 2:15 KJV declares:
“And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.”
We minister from Christ’s victory.
Second: Use the authority of Jesus’ name.
Paul said:
“I command thee in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her.”
And the spirit departed.
The authority is Christ’s.
Third: Do not imitate occult techniques.
Christians do not need:
- magical formulas;
- charms;
- crystals;
- incantations;
- occult symbols;
- spirit guides;
- magical salt;
- talismans;
- spells.
The name of Jesus is not itself a magical formula either.
Acts records the sons of Sceva attempting to use Jesus’ name second-hand, without genuinely belonging to Him, and the encounter ended disastrously.
Spiritual authority flows from relationship with Christ, not verbal technique.
Fourth: Pray and remain spiritually dependent upon God.
Deliverance ministry should never become an exercise in self-confidence.
Prayer expresses dependence upon God.
Some battles require persistence and mature spiritual leadership.
Fifth: Do not confuse disease with demonisation.
This cannot be stressed enough.
Matthew 4:24 distinguishes people suffering from disease from those described as demonised.
Therefore, Christians should never tell someone to stop medical treatment simply because prayer is being offered.
Prayer and appropriate medical care are not enemies.
Nor should mental illness automatically be called demon possession.
Discernment matters.
20. CAN A DEMON OPERATE IN A PLACE?
The Bible certainly associates some spiritual powers with geographical areas, pagan worship and systems of evil.
But Scripture does not give Christians a detailed doctrine of “haunted houses.”
This is an important distinction.
There are biblical examples involving demons and particular locations.
In Mark 5, the demons pleaded with Jesus not to send them out of the region.
Revelation symbolically describes fallen Babylon as becoming a habitation of demons.
But nowhere do the apostles give Christians a manual saying:
“When entering a house, discover which demon owns each room.”
Therefore Christians should avoid superstition.
If serious occult activity has occurred in a place, there is nothing wrong with Christians praying there and dedicating their home and activities wholly to the Lord.
But our confidence must be in Christ—not rituals.
21. WHAT SHOULD I DO IF I BELIEVE THERE IS DEMONIC ACTIVITY IN MY HOME OR ANOTHER PLACE?
A sound biblical response would be:
Renounce every known occult practice.
Do not leave doors open through deliberate participation in what Scripture condemns.
Remove objects whose actual purpose is occult worship or occult practice.
Pray to God in Jesus’ name.
Fill the environment with the worship and Word of God.
Refuse fear.
Exercise spiritual authority where genuinely necessary.
Seek mature pastoral assistance when the situation requires it.
But do not begin obsessively searching every cupboard for a supposedly hidden demon.
The Christian home should become a place where Christ is consciously honoured.
22. CAN DEMONS LIVE IN OBJECTS?
Here we need perhaps the greatest caution.
The Bible clearly teaches that objects can be associated with idolatry, magic and occult practice.
But Scripture does not clearly establish a universal doctrine that demons literally inhabit physical objects.
This distinction matters.
Paul discusses pagan sacrifice in 1 Corinthians.
On one hand, he says an idol in itself is nothing.
On the other hand, he warns that pagan sacrifice can involve fellowship with demons.
So the problem isn’t necessarily that a wooden statue contains a demon, like a container contains water.
The deeper issue is spiritual participation, worship, allegiance and communion.
An object can represent or facilitate an ungodly spiritual practice without requiring us to believe a demon physically resides inside the material substance.
23. WHAT SHOULD A CHRISTIAN DO WITH GENUINELY OCCULT OBJECTS?
Acts provides an instructive principle when people who had practised magic turned decisively to Christ and destroyed their magical books.
The principle is clear:
Do not preserve instruments of practices from which you have genuinely repented.
If an object was specifically manufactured or deliberately used for:
- witchcraft;
- divination;
- occult ceremonies;
- spirit consultation;
- idolatrous worship;
- magical rituals;
A Christian has good reason to remove it rather than preserve it for continued spiritual use.
But again, do not become superstitious.
An ordinary chair bought second-hand does not automatically need exorcising.
An antique does not automatically contain demons because somebody else once owned it.
A hotel room does not automatically require demon hunting.
The believer’s confidence is in Jesus Christ.
24. WHAT ABOUT ANOINTING OIL?
Oil appears biblically in several important contexts, including prayer for the sick.
But the Bible never presents anointing oil as a magical chemical that demons cannot tolerate.
Oil can have symbolic significance when used biblically and prayerfully.
But faith must never shift from Christ to the substance.
The same applies to water, salt, handkerchiefs or any other material object.
Christianity becomes superstition whenever an object is treated as possessing independent magical power.
25. CAN A CHRISTIAN BE DEMON-POSSESSED?
This subject requires precise language.
The English term “possessed” sometimes communicates complete ownership.
But the Greek terminology can more broadly describe someone being demonically afflicted or demonised.
A believer belongs to Jesus Christ.
The believer has been bought with a price and has become the temple of the Holy Spirit.
Therefore we should be very cautious about declaring that a genuine Christian is “owned” by a demon.
Christians can certainly:
- be tempted;
- be attacked;
- be deceived;
- give place to the devil through persistent sin;
- come under spiritual oppression;
- need freedom from areas of bondage.
But whatever terminology Christians use for such situations, they should never speak as if Jesus and Satan have equal ownership of God’s child.
Christ has purchased the believer.
26. JESUS WARNED THAT DELIVERANCE ALONE IS NOT ENOUGH
This is one of Scripture’s most important teachings on deliverance.
Matthew 12:43-45 KJV says:
“When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest, and findeth none.
Then he saith, I will return into my house from whence I came out; and when he is come, he findeth it empty, swept, and garnished.
Then goeth he, and taketh with himself seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter in and dwell there: and the last state of that man is worse than the first. Even so shall it be also unto this wicked generation.”
This destroys the idea that deliverance ministry consists merely of removing demons.
An empty house is dangerous.
A person needs:
- salvation;
- the lordship of Jesus;
- the Word of God;
- the Holy Spirit’s influence;
- prayer;
- discipleship;
- fellowship;
- obedience;
- transformed thinking;
- righteous living.
Deliverance without discipleship is incomplete ministry.
27. THE CHRISTIAN’S PRIMARY POSITION IS NOT FEAR — IT IS RESISTANCE
James 4:7 KJV gives perhaps the clearest everyday spiritual-warfare instruction in Scripture:
“Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.”
Notice the order.
Submit to God.
Then:
Resist the devil.
Many Christians want authority without submission.
But biblical spiritual authority operates from a life under God’s authority.
28. PUT ON THE WHOLE ARMOUR OF GOD
Paul’s principal teaching about spiritual warfare does not tell believers to spend their lives identifying demons.
It tells believers to become spiritually strong.
Ephesians 6:10-18 KJV says:
“Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.
Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;
And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;
Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.
And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints.”
Look at God’s weapons:
- Truth.
- Righteousness.
- The Gospel.
- Faith.
- Salvation.
- The Word of God.
- Prayer.
This is biblical spiritual warfare.
29. WHAT THE BIBLE DOES NOT TEACH US TO DO
This study leads to several important corrections.
The Bible does not tell Christians to:
- name hundreds of demons Scripture never names;
- assume every sin represents a separate demon;
- diagnose every illness as demonisation;
- become fascinated with demons;
- interrogate demons unnecessarily for secret information;
- believe everything demons say;
- construct doctrine from demons’ statements;
- use magical substances;
- live afraid of second-hand objects;
- seek spiritual information from occult sources;
- or treat human beings as the enemy.
Paul says:
“For we wrestle not against flesh and blood.”
People are not our enemy.
The kingdom of darkness is.
30. CHRIST’S VICTORY IS THE FOUNDATION OF DELIVERANCE
The final word on demons is not fear.
It is not Satan.
It is not Legion.
It is not Lilith.
It is not Azazel.
It is not occultism.
It is Jesus Christ.
Colossians 2:15 KJV declares:
“And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.”
At the cross Christ defeated the powers arrayed against God’s people.
Therefore biblical deliverance ministry should magnify Jesus far more than demons.
A PRACTICAL BIBLICAL RESPONSE
If demonic influence is genuinely encountered in a person, minister compassionately, prayerfully and under Christ’s authority. Present Christ, pray, command the evil spirit to leave in Jesus’ name where appropriate, and ensure the person receives discipleship and continuing spiritual care. Do not automatically classify physical or psychological illness as demonic.
If demonic or occult activity appears associated with a place, renounce occult practices connected with that environment, remove deliberate instruments of idolatry or occultism that belong to you, pray, worship God, declare Christ’s lordship and refuse fear. Do not introduce magical Christian rituals that Scripture does not teach.
If something is connected with an object, distinguish between an ordinary object and something genuinely created or deliberately used for occult worship or practice. Renounce the practice and dispose of genuinely occult material appropriately. Do not become enslaved to fear that demons secretly inhabit every unfamiliar possession.
And in every situation:
- Submit to God.
- Stand in Christ.
- Use the Word.
- Pray.
- Resist the devil.
- Walk in righteousness.
- Stay filled with God’s truth.
- Do not fear.
CONCLUSION: KNOW CHRIST BETTER THAN YOU KNOW DEMONS
There is a legitimate biblical doctrine of demons.
There is legitimate spiritual warfare.
There is legitimate deliverance ministry.
But the purpose of studying demons should never be to become impressed by darkness.
The purpose is to become more aware of the absolute supremacy of Jesus Christ over darkness.
- The demons recognised Jesus.
- They trembled before Jesus.
- They obeyed Jesus.
- Legion could not withstand Jesus.
- The spirit of divination could not withstand the name of Jesus Christ.
- The powers of darkness have been defeated through Christ’s triumph.
Therefore the mature Christian does not spend life looking nervously for demons.
- He walks with God.
- He knows the Word.
- He lives holy.
- He prays.
- He exercises discernment.
- He refuses occultism.
- He submits to God.
And when genuine powers of darkness are encountered, he knows whose authority is supreme.
Jesus Christ is Lord.
The safest Christian is not necessarily the Christian who knows the largest number of supposed demon names.
It is the Christian who knows Jesus, submits completely to Jesus, understands the Word of God, walks in the Holy Ghost and knows his authority in Christ.
