Matthew 12:22-32

Listen to Matthew 12:22-32

A House Divided

22 Then a demon-possessed man who was blind and unable to speak was brought to Him. He healed him, so that the man[a] could both speak and see.
23 And all the crowds were astounded and said, "Perhaps this is the Son of David!"
24 When the Pharisees heard this, they said, "The man drives out demons only by Beelzebul, the ruler of the demons."
25 Knowing their thoughts, He told them: "Every kingdom divided against itself is headed for destruction, and no city or house divided against itself will stand.
26 If Satan drives out Satan, he is divided against himself. How then will his kingdom stand?
27 And if I drive out demons by Beelzebul, who is it your sons drive them out by? For this reason they will be your judges.
28 If I drive out demons by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God has come to you.
29 How can someone enter a strong man's house and steal his possessions unless he first ties up the strong man? Then he can rob his house.
30 Anyone who is not with Me is against Me, and anyone who does not gather with Me scatters.
31 Because of this, I tell you, people will be forgiven every sin and blasphemy, but the blasphemy against [b] the Spirit will not be forgiven. [c]
32 Whoever speaks a word against the Son of Man, it will be forgiven him. But whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven him, either in this age or in the one to come.
