Forge
Forge Speaker Charlie Marq addresses one of the most misunderstood questions in spiritual life.
Can Christians be possessed?
His answer reframes the whole conversation. Possession means ownership. Every believer has been transferred out of the kingdom of darkness and into the Kingdom of light. God owns you. That is not up for debate.
But then he pivots to the question that actually matters for everyday life.
"The real question is how influenced are you?"
For Kingdom Laborers who take their faith seriously, this is the more honest examination. Not whether the enemy has ownership, but how much ground you have given him through distraction, compromise, or neglect of what keeps you close to Jesus.
Ownership is settled. Influence is the daily battle.
How are you guarding your influence?
Who does Satan wage war against?
Forge Speaker Charlie Marq answers directly from Revelation 12:17.
The battle is real. So is the authority of Christ over it.
Submit to God first. Confess what is unconfessed. Reject lies and replace them with truth. Forgive. Break generational patterns in Jesus’ name.
And Charlie does not leave it there. From Scripture he gives practical footing for anyone serious about walking in victory.

The church does not belong to us.
Forge Speaker John Vermilya makes it plain. Churches that follow Jesus—they belong to Jesus. He owns them, He builds them, and if He needs to, He shuts them down.
"When a church grows, it's because Jesus is building His Church."
We make plans, develop methods... Sometimes those methods even turn people off. At the end of the day it is an organization of sinful people coming together.
But the driver? The mover? The one running the whole construction program?
That is Jesus.
This is one of the most freeing things a church leader or member can hold onto. The weight of building the Church was never yours to carry. It was always His.
Are you trying to build something for Jesus, or are you letting Jesus build something through you?
