AnswerFor some reason, the ancients believed that many demons would choose to possess the same victim, rather than achieving their objectives fmore efficiently by possessing as many victims as there were demons. In the dramatic story in Mark chapter 5, of the demoniac who was possessed by a legion of demons, Jesus demonstrated his power by casting them out into swine. The presence of so many demons at once seems to be intended to show Jesus' absolute power over the demons.

he said many things like go away satan in the name of god and a bunch of other stuff. You should read The Bible to learn about what he said. If you haven't read the bible before you should start with the book of John

How do you get a demon?

if you play with a Ouija board.actually there are many different ways one can "get a demon" or become possessed. the Ouija board is certainly one way to do so, but is not the only way. another way can be to simply invite the demons to take over your body, or simply be a sinner, that is to be one that has not accepted Jesus Christ as their savior. i do not recommend any one to invite a demon to take them over it is dangerous and stupid, and you will never control the demon/demons you will be controlled and have no power over anything they decide to do or to make you do.

Can demons take forms?

well in the bible there was a demon called legions and it was in this one man. the man told jesus that he was many legions it wasnt just one demon. then jesus cast them into a herd of swine and they ran and killed themselves over a cliff. and there were around 2000 swine in the herd. you can find this in the new testament


When Jesus drove the herd of pigs over the cliff because they were posessed by a demon why did he kill all the pigs instead of just getting the demon out?

The demons was driven from a man and the demons ask to be allowed to go into the swine instead of where they came from which would of been some sort of hell. Jesus let them go into the swine. the swine killed themselves other than be possessed. So, in other words, Jesus did not actually drive the herd of pigs over the cliff. The words in the KJV 'He suffered them' describe His permission, or that He allowed them to go there, not that He thought to destroy the pigs. The subsequent events only serve to demonstrate the natural intent of Satan and his followers 'to steal and to kill and to destroy.' The responsibility for the destruction of the herd rests solely with the demons.

From the standpoint that in the Hindu religion, the Asura were a group of deities who constantly lusted after power who are sometimes considered evil and materialistic, then yes they could be a form demon.

What was Jesus teaching his followers in the miracle of demoniac at capernaum?

The purpose of Jesus' miracles was to show He was God in the flesh. Through the miracles He showed He has power over sickness, disease, the natural realm and in Luke 4:31-37 Jesus showed He has power over the spiritual realm. The people present could see He has authority and power over spirits: Luke 4:36 Then they were all amazed and spoke among themselves, saying, "What a word this is! For with authority and power He commands the unclean spirits, and they come out."
