Jesus Christ » Miracles of » Heals a demoniac
Then a blind and dumb demoniac was brought to him, and he healed him, so that the dumb man spoke and saw. And all the crowds were amazed; they said, "Can this be the Son of David?"

As Jesus knew what they were thinking, he said to them, "Any realm divided against itself comes to ruin, any city or house divided against itself will never stand; and if Satan casts out Satan, he is divided against himself; how then can his realm stand? Besides, if I cast out daemons by Beelzebul, by whom do your sons cast them out? Thus they will be your judges. But if I cast out daemons by the Spirit of God, then the Reign of God has reached you already. Why, how can anyone enter the strong man's house and plunder his goods, unless he first of all binds the strong man? Then he can plunder his house. He who is not with me is against me, and he who does not gather with me scatters. I tell you therefore, men will be forgiven any sin and blasphemy, but they will not be forgiven for blaspheming the Spirit. Whoever says a word against the Son of man will be forgiven, but whoever speaks against the holy Spirit will never be forgiven, neither in this world nor in the world to come. Either make the tree good and its fruit good, or make the tree rotten and its fruit rotten; for the tree is known by its fruit. You brood of vipers, how can you speak good when you are evil? For the mouth utters what the heart is full of. The good man brings good out of his good store, and the evil man brings evil out of his store of evil. I tell you, men will have to account on the day of judgment for every light word they utter; for by your words you will be acquitted, and by your words you will be condemned."

But the scribes who had come down from Jerusalem said, "He has Beelzebul," and "It is by the prince of daemons that he casts out daemons."

If a realm is divided against itself, that realm cannot stand: if a household is divided against itself, that household cannot stand: and if Satan has risen against himself and is divided, he cannot stand, he comes to an end. No one can enter the strong man's house and plunder his goods unless first of all he binds the strong man; then he can plunder his house. I tell you truly, the sons of men shall be forgiven all their sins, and all the blasphemies they may utter, but whoever blasphemes against the holy Spirit is never forgiven, he is guilty of an eternal sin." (This was because they said, "He has an unclean spirit.")

But if it is by the finger of God that I cast daemons out, then the Reign of God has reached you already. When the strong man in armour guards his homestead, his property is undisturbed; but when a stronger man attacks and conquers him, he seizes the panoply on which he relied and divides up the spoil. He who is not with me is against me, and he who does not gather with me scatters.
