John answered, "Master, we saw someone casting out demons in your name, and we forbade him, because he does not follow with us."

He was casting out a demon, and it was mute. It happened, when the demon had gone out, the mute man spoke; and the crowds marveled.

But some of them said, "He casts out demons by Beelzebul, the prince of the demons."

If Satan also is divided against himself, how will his kingdom stand? For you say that I cast out demons by Beelzebul.

But if I cast out demons by Beelzebul, by whom do your children cast them out? Therefore will they be your judges.

But if I by the finger of God cast out demons, then the Kingdom of God has come to you.

And he said to them, "Go and tell that fox, 'Look, I cast out demons and perform cures today and tomorrow, and the third day I complete my mission.

I begged your disciples to cast it out, and they could not."
