'Control' in the Bible

Without warning a spirit takes control of him, and he suddenly screams, goes into convulsions, and foams at the mouth. The spirit mauls him and refuses to leave him.

Because Jesus knew that the Father had given everything into his control, that he had come from God, and that he was returning to God,

You will help them understand and turn them from darkness to light and from Satan's control to God, so that their sins will be forgiven and they will receive a share among those who are sanctified by faith in me.'

Indeed, those who are under the control of human nature cannot please God.

You, however, are not under the control of the human nature but under the control of the Spirit, since God's Spirit lives in you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of the Messiah, he does not belong to him.

Everything is permissible for me, but not everything is helpful. Everything is permissible for me, but I will not allow anything to control me.

However, if they cannot control themselves, they should get married, for it is better to marry than to burn with passion.

Each of you must know how to control his own body in a holy and honorable manner,

For he did not put the coming world we are talking about under the control of angels.

Now when God put everything under him, he left nothing outside his control. However, at the present time we do not yet see everything put under him. But we do see someone who was made a little lower than the angels. He is Jesus, who is crowned with glory and honor because he suffered death, so that by the grace of God he might experience death for everyone.

For all of us make many mistakes. If someone does not make any mistakes when he speaks, he is perfect and able to control his whole body.

We know that we are from God and that the whole world lies under the control of the evil one.
