Ask a QuestionImmediately the Spirit drove Him into the wilderness.
Then they went into Capernaum, and immediately on the Sabbath He entered the synagogue and taught.
And they were astonished at His teaching, for He taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes.
Now there was a man in their synagogue with an unclean spirit. And he cried out,
saying, "Let us alone! What have we to do with You, Jesus of Nazareth? Did You come to destroy us? I know who You are - the Holy One of God!"
But Jesus rebuked him, saying, "Be quiet, and come out of him!"
And when the unclean spirit had convulsed him and cried out with a loud voice, he came out of him.
Then they were all amazed, so that they questioned among themselves, saying, "What is this? What new doctrine is this? For with authority He commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey Him."
And immediately His fame spread throughout all the region around Galilee.
But immediately, when Jesus perceived in His spirit that they reasoned thus within themselves, He said to them, "Why do you reason about these things in your hearts?
And the unclean spirits, whenever they saw Him, fell down before Him and cried out, saying, "You are the Son of God."
And the scribes who came down from Jerusalem said, "He has Beelzebub," and, "By the ruler of the demons He casts out demons."
So He called them to Himself and said to them in parables: "How can Satan cast out Satan?
"If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand.
"And if a house is divided against itself, that house cannot stand.
"And if Satan has risen up against himself, and is divided, he cannot stand, but has an end.
"No one can enter a strong man's house and plunder his goods, unless he first binds the strong man. And then he will plunder his house.
"Assuredly, I say to you, all sins will be forgiven the sons of men, and whatever blasphemies they may utter;
"but he who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is subject to eternal condemnation" -
because they said, "He has an unclean spirit."
