Would a baby be safe where demons are being exorcised, as it has no power to resist evil?
Yes, I am sure that a baby or child would be quite safe. As I have said, the exorciser of demons can determine and control their destiny. Also youngsters up to the age of accountability are protected and covered by the blood of Christ. I cannot see where there would be any danger at all.
This is a very unusual question. The answer, I believe, lies in determining what state the demon-possessed person is in at the time of deliverance. For example, if one were possessed of a spirit of jealousy or a spirit of lying, he would have to accept God's means of salvation first. However, if he had a deaf or dumb spirit, he could easily understand the salvation message through an interpreter.
On the other hand, if one were possessed of devils, as the demoniac of Gadara, his thinking would be so impaired and controlled by Satan that he would have no mind or ability to accept salvation. The demoniac of Gadara had no capacity of will power. He lived in the cemetery. He tore his clothes off his body. He cut himself with sharp stones. He broke every rope and chain put on him. It was necessary for him to receive his deliverance first; then, clothed and in his right mind, he was able to sit at the feet of Jesus and worship his Savior.
The ex-demoniac with his new mind begged Jesus for permission to travel with Him as a disciple, but Jesus told him to go back to his own family and testify of the divine deliverance he had received.
It should be stated that soul salvation and spiritual deliverance are very closely associated. Jesus said to the one healed of lameness, Behold, thou art made whole: sin no more, lest a worse thing come unto thee (John 5:14). He says this to all who receive His miracle power of deliverance in spirit or body.
