"And if I cast out demons by Beelzebub, by whom do your sons cast them out? Therefore they shall be your judges.
"But if I cast out demons by the Spirit of God, surely the kingdom of God has come upon you.
"Or how can one enter a strong man's house and plunder his goods, unless he first binds the strong man? And then he will plunder his house.
"He who is not with Me is against Me, and he who does not gather with Me scatters abroad.
"Therefore I say to you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven men.
