CS Lewis said "There is no neutral ground in the universe. Every square inch, every split second is claimed by God, and counterclaimed by Satan." In the story of Mark 5:1-20, Jesus lands among foreign people in a foreign place under a foreign power, and takes ground FOR the Kingdom of God FROM the enemy. Yet as the Kingdom of God comes, Jesus is rejected from the area. Why? Because the people think Jesus is an even worse evil, not a much greater good. In this message, Benjamin Shanks unpacks the idea that there is no neutral ground in our lives, and we must yield every part of ourselves to the King and His Kingdom.
