Mark
14:18-21 says, “18
And as they
sat and did
eat, Jesus
said, Verily
I say unto
you, One of
you which
eateth with
me shall
betray me.
19 And they
began to be
sorrowful,
and to say
unto him one
by one, Is
it I? and
another
said, Is it
I? 20 And
he answered
and said
unto them,
It is one of
the twelve,
that dippeth
with me in
the dish.
21 The Son
of man
indeed
goeth, as it
is written
of him: but
woe
to that man
by whom the
Son of man
is betrayed!
good were it
for that man
if he had
never been
born.”
That could
only be said
of someone
that dies
and goes to
hell.
Luke
22:3 says, “Then
entered
Satan into
Judas
surnamed
Iscariot,
being of the
number of
the
twelve.”
Satan cannot
enter into a
saved
person’s
body.
Mark
3:22-30 says, “22
And the
scribes
which came
down from
Jerusalem
said, He
hath
Beelzebub,
and by the
prince of
the devils
casteth he
out devils.
23 And he
called them
unto him,
and said
unto them in
parables,
How can
Satan cast
out Satan?
24 And if a
kingdom be
divided
against
itself, that
kingdom
cannot
stand. 25
And if a
house be
divided
against
itself, that
house cannot
stand. 26
And if Satan
rise up
against
himself, and
be divided,
he cannot
stand, but
hath an
end. 27
No
man can
enter into a
strong man's
house, and
spoil his
goods,
except he
will first
bind the
strong man;
and then he
will spoil
his house.
28 Verily I
say unto
you, All
sins shall
be forgiven
unto the
sons of men,
and
blasphemies
wherewith
soever they
shall
blaspheme:
29 But he
that shall
blaspheme
against the
Holy Ghost
hath never
forgiveness,
but is in
danger of
eternal
damnation:
30 Because
they said,
He hath an
unclean
spirit.”
They were
accusing
Jesus of
having the
power to
cast out
devils,
because He
was
possessed by
the prince
of the
devils. Jesus
told them
that if the
devil was
casting out
his own
demons out
of people,
then his
kingdom was
divided, and
would not
stand.
Jesus
said that a
demon cannot
enter into a
person,
unless that
demon has
the power to
bind the
“strong man”
of the
house.
Demons can
easily
overcome any
unsaved
person. 2
Timothy
2:25-26 says, “25
In meekness
instructing
those that
oppose
themselves;
if God
peradventure
will give
them
repentance
to the
acknowledging
of the
truth; 26
And
that they
may recover
themselves
out of the
snare of the
devil, who
are taken
captive by
him at his
will.”
The
devil and
his demons
cannot enter
into the
body of a
saved
person,
because they
do not have
the power to
bind the
“strong man
of the
house.”
When we get
saved, our
bodies are
the temple
of God—He is
the “Strong
Man” of the
house. 1
John
4:4 says, “Ye
are of God,
little
children,
and have
overcome
them:
because
greater is
he that is
in you, than
he that is
in the world.”
1
Corinthians
3:16-17 says, “16
Know
ye not that
ye are the
temple of
God, and
that the
Spirit of
God dwelleth
in you?
17 If any
man defile
the temple
of God, him
shall God
destroy; for
the temple
of God is
holy, which
temple ye
are.” 1
Corinthians
6:19-20 says, “19
What? know
ye not that
your body is
the temple
of the Holy
Ghost which
is in you,
which ye
have of God,
and ye are
not your
own? 20 For
ye are
bought with
a price:
therefore
glorify God
in your
body, and in
your spirit,
which are
God's.”
Satan
has no power
to overcome
the “Strong
Man” of our
house or
body. When
we get
saved, we
are indwelt
by God the
Father, God
the Son, and
God the Holy
Spirit—and
Satan cannot
over power
them. John
14:16-17
shows us
that
the
Holy Spirit
indwells us, “16
And I will
pray the
Father, and
he shall
give you
another
Comforter,
that he may
abide with
you for
ever; 17
Even
the
Spirit of
truth;
whom the
world cannot
receive,
because it
seeth him
not, neither
knoweth him:
but ye know
him; for
he
dwelleth
with you,
and shall be
in you.”
John
14:23 shows
us that the
Father and
the Son
indwell us, “Jesus
answered and
said unto
him,
If a
man love me,
he will keep
my words:
and my
Father will
love him,
and we will
come unto
him, and
make our
abode with
him.”
This
means that
when Satan
entered
Judas, it
clearly
showed that
Judas was
not saved.
