Pastor Rob Davis: Matt. 12:22-32

In Matthew 12:22-32 Jesus’ healing of a demon-possessed man prompts three different responses.

1. The crowd responds to the healing with amazement (vv. 22, 23).
2. The Pharisees respond to the crowd with an attack (v. 24).
3. The Messiah responds to the Pharisees with a sermon.
1. His introduction: Your premise is absurd.
1. Because it violates common sense (v. 25).
2. Because it is not how Satan operates (v. 26).
3. Because by it you stand judged (v. 27).
2. His main point: I am Messiah and My kingdom has come upon you with power (vv. 28, 29).
3. His conclusion: Your continued rejection of Me will result in your eternal judgment. (vv. 30-32).
