House Divided Cannot Stand

Mark 3:22-27 
22 And the scribes who came down from Jerusalem said, “He has Beelzebub,” and, “By the ruler of the demons He casts out demons.” 23 So He called them to Himself and said to them in parables: “How can Satan cast out Satan? 24 If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand. 25 And if a house is divided against itself, that house cannot stand. 26 And if Satan has risen up against himself, and is divided, he cannot stand, but has an end. 27 No one can enter a strong man's house and plunder his goods, unless he first binds the strong man. And then he will plunder his house.

Jesus did miraculous things, including commanding demons to leave people; when accused of doing this for or as the devil, He made it clear that He came to throw satan out by God's power.  He even used simple reasoning to show it would be stupid for satan to attack himself.  So Jesus came, conquered in all authority, and reigns forever secure as Lord of all.
