Matthew 9:3

Radiate New Testament

At this, some teachers of the law said to themselves, “This man has no right to talk like that, as if he were God!”

See the chapter Copy

Then the high priest ripped his clothes and said, “This man has claimed to be God! Why do we need any more witnesses? You’ve heard what he said.

The Pharisees and the teachers of the law began to think, “Who is this person who says such an evil thing? Only God can forgive sins!”

“You’ve heard him claim that he’s God! How does it look to you?” They all found him guilty and said he had to die.

It’s from the inside, from a person’s heart, that bad things come: sexual sins, stealing, murder,

He taught like one who had authority, and not like their teachers of the law.

Truly I tell you, people can be forgiven for every kind of sin and insult,

but anyone who says that the Holy Spirit is evil will never be forgiven. Their guilt will last forever.”
