Mark 3:26 King James Version (KJV)
26 And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end.
Mark 3:26 Contemporary English Version (CEV)
26 So if Satan fights against himself, that will be the end of him.
Contemporary English Version (CEV) Copyright © 1995 by American Bible Society
These are my thoughts.
Evil will not be against evil, Satan will attack to keep people from God not for any other reason.

Mark 3:27 King James Version (KJV)
27 No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strong man; and then he will spoil his house.
Mark 3:27 Contemporary English Version (CEV)
27 How can anyone break into the house of a strong man and steal his things, unless he first ties up the strong man? Then he can take everything.
Contemporary English Version (CEV) Copyright © 1995 by American Bible Society
These are my thoughts.
Satan will first have to tie us up with sin to break us but the Lord uses our broken state to bring us to Him.

28 I promise you that any of the sinful things you say or do can be forgiven, no matter how terrible those things are.

We can have forgiveness, we can never be to bad to come to Him, thank you Lord for that.

Mark 3:29 King James Version (KJV)
29 But he that shall blaspheme against the Holy Ghost hath never forgiveness, but is in danger of eternal censoredation.
Mark 3:29 Contemporary English Version (CEV)
29 But if you speak against the Holy Spirit, you can never be forgiven. That sin will be held against you forever.
Contemporary English Version (CEV) Copyright © 1995 by American Bible Society
These are my thoughts.
We can not live by the Spirit if we keep denying the Spirit, we deny our own forgiveness and will face our judgment.

Mark 3:30 King James Version (KJV)
30 Because they said, He hath an unclean spirit.
Mark 3:30 Contemporary English Version (CEV)
30 Jesus said this because the people were saying that he had an evil spirit in him.
Contemporary English Version (CEV) Copyright © 1995 by American Bible Society
These are my thoughts.
The people said Jesus followed after an evil spirit and He is perfect how much more may they say about us.

These are my thoughts.
We can also call on Jesus as His followers anytime as well.

These are my thoughts.
We should never let even our family keep us from doing for God what we know we should do.

them.

We as His disciples get incite that no one else does.

Jude 2 Contemporary English Version (CEV)
2 I pray that God will greatly bless you with kindness, peace, and love!

These are my thoughts.
We should be willing to pray this for each other as well, without Christ none of this is truly the way it is meant to be though.

13 Jesus let them go, and they went out of the man and into the pigs. The whole herd of about two thousand pigs rushed down the steep bank into the lake and drowned.

Thru Jesus demons run away but demons lead us to destruction.
