Mark 3:23-25

America is in deep trouble. In my lifetime I have not seen such a division of the moral standings of our country. We were built with immigration. We are now established by party, money and power. Partisanship needs to go. WWJD has gone by the wayside.

God help us!

Jesus confronts the religious leaders with the possibility that, by opposing Him, they might be aligning themselves with evil powers. The defining mark of a disciple of God’s kingdom is allegiance to Jesus and His teaching. Faithlife Bible.

Jesus’ reply in parables was actually a threefold message that contrasted unity and disunity. Nothing—including Satan’s kingdom—can stand if it is divided.NKJ Bible.

Mark 3:23–25 (NKJV)
23 So He called them to Himself and said to them in parables: “How can Satan cast out Satan? 24 If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand. 25 And if a house is divided against itself, that house cannot stand.

Matthew 12:25 (NKJV)

25 But Jesus knew their thoughts, and said to them: “Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and every city or house divided against itself will not stand.
