22 - Then a demon-oppressed man who was both blind and mute was brought to Jesus, and he healed him, so that the man could speak and see. 23 The people were amazed, and said, “Can this be the Son of David?” 24 But when the Pharisees (leaders of the nation) heard of it, they said to one another, “It’s by Beelzebul, the prince of demons, that this man casts out demons.”
25 Aware of their thoughts, Jesus said, “Every kingdom divided against itself comes to ruin {why division is sowed} and no city or house divided - against itself - will remain standing. 26 So if Satan casts out Satan, he’s divided against himself. How then will his kingdom continue to stand? 27 And if I cast out demons by Beelzebul, by whom do your sons cast them out? Therefore let them be your judges. 28 But if I cast out demons by the Spirit{/Presence} of God, then the kingdom of God has come to you. 29 For how can someone enter a strong man's house {man’s world} and plunder his goods, unless he first binds the strong man {aka “god of this world”}? Then he is able to plunder his house. 30 Whoever isn’t with me is against me, and whoever doesn’t gather with me scatters.
31 I tell you, every sin and blasphemy is forgiven people, but the blasphemy against the Spirit(/Presence of God) is not forgiven. [Greek words don’t have much future tense. Blasphemy/insulting or raging against God’s Spirit/Presence cannot be forgiven - aphiΓ©mi - left, forgiven, abandoned, sent away, while blaspheming/raging/insulting.}
32 Whoever speaks against the Son of Man, forgiven, but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit not forgiven, either in this age or in the age to come. {Ages - up to Jerusalem’s razing in 70 CE | next the “church age” - the gospel rode forth openly victorious over powers, later comes the prophesied “falling away” backwards, producing the “anthropos of lawlessness”, one of which will rise as the final a.c. and lawlessly ‘step into’ the main seat/horn of the huge eschatological, many headed geopolitical beast (of today, not of yesteryear) | “the” millennium/“thousand years” Sabbath rest from enmity | release of the adversary&co, nations (descendants of mortal survivors of apocalypse) he gathers again for war, and his fiery, final defeat, a second lake of fire mention, then GWT judgment ‘day’ the DOA for the initially doa, initial, inner conditions of SOME portrayed in the rich man and Lazarus parable, and in the outside-of-the vision narrative of Rev.22, all those who couldn’t go through the door of the ten bridesmaids parable “rise into” the “aionion kolasis” / eonian korrection / age of correction ..GOD chooses which role we play, aka, which resurrection we are in. So correction is all one program, same method for “all”. But think despots, child sex traffickers, etc. rising into the bright radiance of that ‘day’ - from the inner, outside of the light, deep darkness and the gnashing of teeth.. to weeping.. beating self up with many stripes.. aka, heart and gut wrenching remorse.. until realizing the remedy “built in from the beginning, Christ Crucified. Strong enough to appease eveRy conscience. Jesus said, Jn.12:32, “I will draw aLL to me”. So -> 70 CE | ‘church’ age | millennial age | total proof/discernment/judgment age, Lev.23:36, Jn.7:37. Self as first and foremost (dog eat dog) is fully removed from off humanity, followed by “new heavens and earth, elements furiously melting”, third and final mention of a lake of fire. God will now “tabernacle” with mankind, Rev.21:1-5, 2Pet.3:12-13. Leviticus 23 as an outline of the administration/program of the ages, Ephesians 1:10.}
33 “So make the tree good and its fruit good! Or make the tree bad, and its fruit bad, for a tree is known by its fruit. 34 You nest of vipers! How can you speak good, while being evil? For it’s out of the abundance of the heart, that the mouth speaks. 35 A good person out of their good treasure brings forth good, and the evil doing person out of their evil treasure brings forth evil. 36 I tell you, on the day of judgment people will give account for every careless word they speak. {On that ‘day’?} 37 For by your words you’re justified, and by your words are you judged.”
{Jn.5:22 - “God judges no one.” - Jn.12:47 - Jesus said “..I did not come to judge the world, but to save the world”. So who judges? What “kolasis” works the very best?}
