Mark 3:24-35 ▼

24 |If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand.

25 |If a house is divided against itself, that house will not be able to stand.

26 |If Satan has risen up against himself and is divided, he cannot stand, but he is finished!

27 |But no one can enter the strong man's house and plunder his property unless he first binds the strong man, and then he will plunder his house.

28 |Truly I say to you, all sins shall be forgiven the sons of men, and whatever blasphemies they utter;

29 but whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is guilty of an eternal sin|--

30 because they were saying, |He has an unclean spirit.|

31 Then His mother and His brothers arrived, and standing outside they sent [word] to Him and called Him.

32 A crowd was sitting around Him, and they said to Him, |Behold, Your mother and Your brothers are outside looking for You.|

33 Answering them, He said, |Who are My mother and My brothers?|

34 Looking about at those who were sitting around Him, He said, |Behold My mother and My brothers!

35 |For whoever does the will of God, he is My brother and sister and mother.|
