People accused Jesus of being a demon. This is what He told them...
This was Jesus’ response to people who accused him of being possessed by demons. People like to use it for different scenarios, but really Jesus was talking about himself here. He was not a demon casting out demons. That would be a terrible plan for a demon trying to take over the world anyway!
The people accusing him of this? The teachers of the law and even some of his family! You and I would think, if they truly believed this, they obviously didn’t truly know Him.
This should be a challenge to us to continue to truly know the Lord. We don’t want to be pulled in different directions by people who want to define Christ in their own terms (there are a lot of those voices out there). The more we know our Savior, the less the world’s lies can take root in our lives. So keep digging into His word, praying, attending a Bible-believing church and surrounding yourselves with people who are walking the same direction you are in your faith. This way, you won’t be carried away with the untruths about God and His grace that float around out there! Stick to knowing Him up close and personally. He’s willing and waiting for you.
“If a house is divided against itself, that house cannot stand.”
Mark 3:25 NIV
