Mark 3:30

28 Truly I tell you, the sons of men will be forgiven all sins and blasphemies, as many as they utter.

29 But whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit will never be forgiven; he is guilty of eternal sin.”

Jesus made this statement because they were saying, “He has an unclean spirit.”

31 Then Jesus’ mother and brothers came and stood outside. They sent someone in to summon Him,

32 and a crowd was sitting around Him. “Look,” He was told, “Your mother and brothers are outside, asking for You.”
