A deranged man approached Jesus. Satan had caused the man hurt by sending evil spirits to live inside of him. Jesus confronted the demons and sent them out of the man and into a herd of pigs. The pigs then ran off a cliff and plunged to their death.
Satan hurts people and wants them to suffer. Jesus is stronger than Satan. He loves people and helps them and saves them from Satan.
