How Can Satan Cast Out Satan? #1765 (Prose)

How Can Satan Cast Out Satan? In a world where shadows conspire and echoes of doubt ignite the fire, a question lingers, profound and grand: How can Satan cast out Satan? If darkness battles its own shade, what truth remains, what light displayed? A kingdom torn by strife within crumbles down, its power thin. A house divided, walls grown weak, whispers of chaos start to speak. Foundations shiver, pillars fall, in discord's grip, they lose it all. The voice of Christ, a warning clear, speaks of unity's bond as the way to steer. For if we fight ourselves in vain, only fragments shall remain. So heed the call, let wisdom guide, in unity, let hearts abide. For if we stand as one, so grand, no force can topple this strong land. The essence of this thought, rooted in the words of Jesus: "HOW CAN SATAN CAST OUT SATAN? If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand." (Mk 3.23-24; Mt 12.25-26; Lk 11.17-18; Jn 8.52). His timeless truth resonates, a beacon for unity amidst the chaos, a call for cohesion in a fractured world. Let us remember, in our quest for strength, that division leads to downfall, but together, we stand unshaken. -Steven G. Lee (June 12, 2024)
