With what were many possessed in Christ's time?

Answer

"And they brought unto Him all sick people that were taken with divers diseases and torments, and those
which were possessed with devils." Matt. 4: 24.
NOTE-Vampire-like, evil angels take possession of, and make their abode with, all over whose
minds and bodies they can gain control. Only through Christ can this demoniacal captivity be broken. Until
this is done, one in this condition is led captive by Satan "at his will." His self-control and power to resist
temptation are gone. See 2 Tim. 2: 26.
