Jesus and Beelzebul

Manila Bulletin

|

March 27, 2025

Jesus has just driven out the demon from a mute person. While the crowds are awed, some people attribute the miracle to the power of Beelzebul.

Jesus points to the absurdity of Satan fighting against himself and says that he drives out demons "by the finger of God" (v 20).

God's Spirit is in Jesus who is God's finger at work to free men and women from Satan and the forces of evil. Those who follow Jesus share in his victory over evil and continue his liberating mission.

It is only God who rules the world. The devil has no kingdom.

We read in the Gospels the devil's dread whenever he is commanded by Jesus to leave the possessed person.

The devil knows that even he has no power against God who owns everything. Often, when a problem comes our way, we chalk it all up to luck we consult fortune tellers, put lucky charms in our houses, and practice other related superstitions. We invite the evil spirit to come.
