Does Hell Know Your Name?

What makes someone spiritually dangerous? In this powerful message from the Explicit Gospel series, Pastor Daniel Gregory unpacks the terrifying story of the seven sons of Sceva in Acts 19 and asks a sobering question: Does hell know your name? The demons recognized Jesus. They recognized Paul. But when seven men tried to invoke the name of Christ without truly knowing Him, the demons responded: “Who are you?” Modern Christianity is filled with people who associate with Jesus without surrendering to Him. Church attendance, Christian culture, social media clips, podcasts, merch, and religious language cannot replace real intimacy with Christ or the authority that comes from a Spirit-filled life. In this sermon, you’ll discover: What gives a believer spiritual authority The difference between power and performance Why nominal Christianity has no impact on darkness What the Bible says about spiritual warfare Why intimacy with Christ matters more than religious appearance How to become effective for the Kingdom of God Key Scriptures: Acts 19:13–17, James 2:19, Matthew 16:18, Romans 8:31 This is not a call to celebrity Christianity. This is a call to holiness, surrender, spiritual authority, and an uncompromised Gospel. 👉 Authority flows from intimacy with Christ, not association with Christianity.
