Mark 3:20-35

20 Then he went home, and the crowd gathered again, so that they could not even eat. 21 And when his family heard it, they went out to seize him, for they were saying, “He is out of his mind.”

Blasphemy Against the Holy Spirit

22 And the scribes who came down from Jerusalem were saying, “He is possessed by Beelzebul,” and “by the prince of demons he casts out the demons.” 23 And he called them to him and said to them in parables, “How can Satan cast out Satan? 24 If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand. 25 And if a house is divided against itself, that house will not be able to stand. 26 And if Satan has risen up against himself and is divided, he cannot stand, but is coming to an end. 27 But no one can enter a strong man’s house and plunder his goods, unless he first binds the strong man. Then indeed he may plunder his house.

28 “Truly, I say to you, all sins will be forgiven the children of man, and whatever blasphemies they utter, 29 but whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is guilty of an eternal sin”— 30 for they were saying, “He has an unclean spirit.”

Jesus’ Mother and Brothers

31 And his mother and his brothers came, and standing outside they sent to him and called him. 32 And a crowd was sitting around him, and they said to him, “Your mother and your brothers are outside, seeking you.” 33 And he answered them, “Who are my mother and my brothers?” 34 And looking about at those who sat around him, he said, “Here are my mother and my brothers! 35 For whoever does the will of God, he is my brother and sister and mother.”

  2. If we are doing the will of God and living our lives to please and honor Him, we are part of the family of God.

  4. Even though God allows Satan to work in our world, God is still in control. One day, Satan will be bound forever.

  5. Do the will of God, then you are my brother, sister, and mother.Only Jesus can forgive my sins.

    Lord God, help me to know and do your will.

    Please be with our nation and our world.

    Lord God, We need you so badly and we pray your mercy and assistance for the Ukranian people.

    Amen.

  7. Lord, not my will but yours. Help me use my gifts You blessed me with to serve You. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.

  8. How sad for the leaders, & teachers to say such idiotic stuff like JESUS was demon possessed. That the power over demons is from the prince of demons. AHH! but JESUS turned their thoughts around & warned them that calling the works HE preforms in the power of GOD’s SPIRIT of demons is a sin which will not be forgiven. The one who rejects what the Holy Spirit makes clear is guilty of an eternal sin. LORD JESUS when I put my faith & trust in YOU; YOU forgave me of all my sins. The rest of my life is “thank YOU.” Amen

  9. Thank you Lord for wisdom and understanding of your word. Living the Christians life is a commitment and sometimes offensive to others who dont understand. Jesus made it very clear that if you obey His father then you belong to the famiky of God, no confusion what so ever. We must belive and obey Saints.

    Lord help me to be true to you and your word, help me to become bold of the teachings I’m learning and share with othets the biblical truth inorder that they may get clarity in there own lives. We must choose whom we will serve, As for me and my home we will serve the Lord.

    Be blessed church

  10. He who does the will of God is my brother and sister. Thank you Jesus for your example.
