Mark 3:27

Read in context

Mark 3:25–29 · Berean Standard Bible

25 If a house is divided against itself, it cannot stand.

26 And if Satan is divided and rises against himself, he cannot stand; his end has come.

27 Indeed, no one can enter a strong man’s house to steal his possessions unless he first ties up the strong man. Then he can plunder his house.

28 Truly I tell you, the sons of men will be forgiven all sins and blasphemies, as many as they utter.

29 But whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit will never be forgiven; he is guilty of eternal sin.”
