(because they said, &#8220;He has an unclean spirit&#8221;<n id="1" />).p>

The Spirit immediately drove him into the wilderness.

(For Jesus<n id="1" /> had said to him, &#8220;Come out of that man, you unclean spirit!&#8221;)<n id="2" />

After throwing him into convulsions, the unclean spirit cried out with a loud voice and came out of him.

Stay awake and pray that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.&#8221;

And just as Jesus<n id="1" /> was coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens<n id="2" /> splitting apart and the Spirit descending on him like a dove.<n id="3" />

But whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit will never be forgiven, but is guilty of an eternal sin&#8221;<n id="1" />

Instead, a woman whose young daughter had an unclean spirit<n id="1" /> immediately heard about him and came and fell at his feet.

A member of the crowd said to him, &#8220;Teacher, I brought you my son, who is possessed by a spirit that makes him mute.

So they brought the boy<n id="1" /> to him. When the spirit saw him, it immediately threw the boy into a convulsion. He<n id="2" /> fell on the ground and rolled around, foaming at the mouth.

<p class="bodytext">Now when Jesus saw that a crowd was quickly gathering, he rebuked<n id="1" /> the unclean spirit,<n id="2" /> saying to it, &#8220;Mute and deaf spirit, I command you, come out of him and never enter him again.&#8221;

When they arrest you and hand you over for trial, do not worry about what to speak. But say whatever is given you at that time,<n id="1" /> for it is not you speaking, but the Holy Spirit.
