SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY    Matthew 12:29-32

²⁹ "If anyone wants to enter a strong person's house and steal his things, he must first tie up the strong person. Then he can steal the things from the house.     ³⁰ "Whoever is not with me is against me. Whoever does not work with me is working against me. ³¹ So I tell you, people can be forgiven for every sin and everything they say against God. But whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven. ³² Anyone who speaks against the Son of Man can be forgiven, but anyone who speaks against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, now or in the future.
