11. "Then the devil leaveth him, and, behold, angels came and ministered unto him."—Matt. iv.
If this does not teach the existence of a personal devil, there is nothing within the lids of the Scriptures teaching the existence of a personal God. If this does not teach the existence of evil spirits, there is nothing in the Bible going to show that good spirits exist either in this world or the next.
16. "When the even was come they brought unto him many that were possessed with devils: and he cast out the spirits with his word, and healed all that were sick."—Matt. vii.
1. "And they came over unto the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gadarenes.
2. "And when he was come out of the ship, immediately there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit,
3. "Who had his dwelling among the tombs; and no man could bind him, no, not with chains:
4. "Because that he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been plucked asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces: neither could any man tame him.
5. "And always, night and day, he was in the mountains, and in the tombs, crying and cutting himself with stones.
6. "But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshipped him,
7. "And cried with a loud voice, and said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, thou son of the most high God? I adjure thee by God, that thou torment me not.
