Demons are believed to have the power to physically or mentally hurt people, but only within the boundaries of what God will allow. Demons can destroy any material on the earth; these supernatural powers are always inferior to the power of God. God may use his will to cancel or destroy any effect the demon chooses to invoke.{{cn}}
 
According to the gospels, Jesus had full power over demons, and they always obeyed his commands when he told them what to do, as opposed to a more general sense in which demons only do that which God tells them to.<ref>{{Bibleref2|Matthew|8:16|NIV}} {{Bibleref2|Mark|1:23-26|NIV}}</ref>
