12 Or if he asks for an egg, will give him a scorpion?
13 If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will the heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him? ”
14 Now He was driving out a demon that was mute. When the demon came out, the man who had been mute, spoke, and the crowds were amazed.
15 But some of them said, “He drives out demons by Beelzebul, the ruler of the demons! ”
16 And others, as a test, were demanding of Him a sign from heaven.
17 Knowing their thoughts, He told them: “Every kingdom divided against itself is headed for destruction, and a house divided against itself falls.
18 If Satan also is divided against himself, how will his kingdom stand? For you say I drive out demons by Beelzebul.
