    43:11||Season 5, Ep. 11
    While we've released Demonology 101, 201, and 301 up to this point, there really hasn't been a dedicated discussion as to what is NOT a demon. In this episode, Chris from the Wandering Road Podcast and JJ take a stab at just that and go over not only some lessons that anyone can use but also take the opportunity to address some of the misinformation that many love to promote, whether that would be through sermons or online. JJ finishes the episode with a quick synopsis of what an demon actually is in order to contrast the rest of the episode.Get all of Southern Demonology's links at https://www.southerndemonology.com along with contact information.#demonic #infernal #demonology #exorcism
