Context of Mark 3:28

26And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 27No man can enter into a strong man’s house, and plunder his goods, except he will first bind the strong man; and then he will plunder his house. Verily I say to you, All sins shall be forgiven to the sons of men, and whatever blasphemies they shall blaspheme: 29But he that shall blaspheme against the Holy Spirit never hath forgiveness, but is in danger of eternal damnation: 30Because they said, He hath an unclean spirit.
