Jesus Gave Them Permission



Mark 5:11-13 (NASB)

11 Now there was a large herd of swine feeding nearby on the mountain. 12 The demons implored Him, saying, “Send us into the swine so that we may enter them.” 13 Jesus gave them permission. And coming out, the unclean spirits entered the swine; and the herd rushed down the steep bank into the sea, about two thousand of them; and they were drowned in the sea.


Jesus gave the unclean spirits permission to enter the unclean animals. This could describe what happens to those who reject His truth and are given over to their desires and wickedness. 


There is nothing to prevent their headlong rush to the darkness of the deep, the waters of the world. They will lose the breath of life and drown in the waters of their destruction.
