In Mark 2 and 3, Jesus is busy healing people, teaching, answering questions, and gathering his Apostles.
When Jesus' intentions were questioned He spoke these words:
"I promise you that any of the sinful things you say or do can be forgiven, no matter how terrible those things are. But if you speak against the Holy Spirit, you can never be forgiven. That sin will be held against you forever."Have we ever spoke of someone that you disagreed with as evil? Have we ever judged someone based on assumptions of their intentions?
Jesus said this because the people were saying that he had an evil spirit in him. (Mark 3.28-30 CEV)
Just as we would never ridicule our perfect God, we should not do so to those who are Spirit-filled.
It is easy to forget the power of our words, but here we see that our words can actually separate us from Him.
Praise Jesus!
