Mark 3:22-30

22The scribes who had come down from Jerusalem said, “He is possessed by Beelzebul,” and, “He drives out demons by the ruler of the demons.”

23So he summoned them and spoke to them in parables: “How can Satan drive out Satan?

24If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand.

25If a house is divided against itself, that house cannot stand.

26And if Satan opposes himself and is divided, he cannot stand but is finished.

28“Truly I tell you, people will be forgiven for all sins and whatever blasphemies they utter.

29But whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is guilty of an eternal sin”  —
