Luke 11:14

Spiritual warfare

12 Or if he asks for an egg, will give him a scorpion?

13 So if you who are evil know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him!”

One day Jesus was driving out a demon that was mute. And when the demon was gone, the man who had been mute spoke. The crowds were amazed,

15 but some of them said, “It is by Beelzebul, the prince of the demons, that He drives out demons.”

16 And others tested Him by demanding a sign from heaven.
