“House/Kingdom Divided Against Itself”

Jesus’ own people…humm, wonder who that was…
Those following Him?
Likely.
Family?
Probably not due to what we see later in the chapter…
Anyway, they thought Jesus had lost His senses.

Mar 3:22-26
The scribes who came down from Jerusalem were saying,
“He is possessed by Beelzebul,” and “He casts out the demons by the ruler of the demons.”

And He called them to Himself and began speaking to them in parables,
“How can Satan cast out Satan?

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

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

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

Jesus knew what the scribes were saying.
He confronted them…with a parable.
“How can Satan cast out Satan?”

If satan’s house is divided, it will not stand.

Jesus teaches some about “division”.

A kingdom divided against itself…a description of much to the professing Body of Christ…will not stand.
Such a kingdom will fail.

Allow not division within the house.
Allow not division within the kingdom.
