Friends of the Rosary:

In yesterday’s reading (Mk 3:22–30), we witnessed a shocking scene: scribes accusing Jesus of driving our demons by Satan. The Author of Life accused by leaders of the instructional church of that time.

Two of the names of the Devil in the Bible are “the accuser” and “the scatterer.” We see that in this story. The accused victim Jesus responded with parables and reminded: “Whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit will never have forgiveness, but is guilty of an everlasting sin.”

With Evil and his collaborators, it’s better never to engage in a conversation. They are trapped by darkness and they aren’t ready to accept any light.
