Open Doors: Conversations with Heart of the Father
Open Doors is a conversation about inviting God’s love, presence, and power into our hearts. We are friends and teammates from Heart of the Father Ministries who share in the mission of setting captive hearts free through Unbound ministry. We’ll be touching on the impact of Neal Lozano’s book, Unbound, and hearing stories of lives changed through Unbound ministry. At times we’ll dig deep into the Five Keys of Unbound, simple responses to the gospel with profound impact on hearts and lives. Join us for stories, insights, reflections, and prayer as we seek Him together! Learn more at www.heartofthefather.com. Music by Christian Harper. Artwork by Rosemary Strohm at Command-S.
Open Doors: Conversations with Heart of the Father
The Fourth Key: An Act of Faith with Dr. Mary Healy and Matt Lozano
Dr. Mary Healy Explains The Fourth Key: The Command
Meet Matt’s “go-to theologian,” the best-selling author and international speaker Dr. Mary Healy, Professor of Scripture at Sacred Heart Major Seminary in Detroit, general editor of the Catholic Commentary on Sacred Scripture, and more.
This episode helps Christians of all backgrounds explore common questions and concerns regarding the Fourth Key of Unbound: The Command.
Does a lay person have the authority to command demons? Dr. Healy distinguishes between private exorcism and the rite of exorcism, which is reserved only for Bishops and specifically-authorized priests.
She gives scriptures and examples surrounding the Fourth Key, also known as adjuration, which means to command someone in the name of a higher authority.
Dr. Healy lists numerous resources for those wishing to explore this aspect of deliverance ministry further, saying “Hardly a week goes by that I don’t recommend that book to some person or group somewhere in the world.” Can you guess what “that book” is? She also describes how to put oneself in a
spiritually dangerous position. The answer is not what you might guess!
Be sure to listen to the very end to hear Dr. Healy’s eloquent and powerful concluding prayer.
