Mark 3:22-24,28



Mark 3:22-24,28 And the scribes which came down from Jerusalem said, ... by the prince of the devils casteth he out devils. And he ... said unto them ... How can Satan cast out Satan? And if a kingdom be divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand. Verily I say unto you, All sins shall be forgiven ... But he that shall blaspheme against the Holy Ghost hath never forgiveness. Jesus was casting out devils from tormented people, but the religious leaders were angry. They had no power over these demons and were jealous that Jesus did! So they accused Jesus of casting out demons by the power of Satan. That doesn’t even make sense! Satan casting our Satan’s followers?! And Jesus called them out on their wicked accusations. They were ridiculing the Holy Spirit! To mock God is called blasphemy, and the Holy Spirit is God. Jesus was saying that someone who rejects Jesus AND the Holy Spirit cannot be saved. You cannot serve God and mock God’s dear Son. And you can’t serve God and mock the Holy Spirit of God. They are one! When you disrespect one, you disrespect all three! You can’t believe in One and not believe in the other two. That is why Jehovah’s Witnesses and Mormons are not Christians. They may claim that they are Christians, but they are not. They do not believe in the deity of Christ. And remember, you cannot disrespect one and not disrespect all three.
