Follow Jesus – Thursday, February 15

An Eternal Sin
Mark 3:22-30

Unable to trap Jesus or even to rattle him, the scribes resort to slander. “He is possessed by Beelzebul!” and “By the prince of demons he casts out the demons!” Jesus, they assert, is empowered by the devil and is doing his bidding.

The scribes were willfully blind to the obvious. Rather than seeing the Son of God illuminated by the Spirit of God, they reject and oppose the work of the Spirit, assigning the power of Jesus to an unclean spirit. The unforgiveable, eternal sin.

Who do you say Jesus is? By what power did he open blind eyes and deaf ears? How did he cause the lame to walk and the dead to rise? By what spirit did he come forth from the tomb?

Is he to be believed as the Son of God or rejected as a son of the devil?

Your eternity hinges on your answer. And answer you will.
