Bible verse
And others tested Him by demanding a sign from heaven.
Luke 11:16 · BSB
The verses around it, from Luke 11.
12 Or if he asks for an egg, will give him a scorpion?
13 So if you who are evil know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him!”
14 One day Jesus was driving out a demon that was mute. And when the demon was gone, the man who had been mute spoke. The crowds were amazed,
15 but some of them said, “It is by Beelzebul, the prince of the demons, that He drives out demons.”
16 And others tested Him by demanding a sign from heaven.
17 Knowing their thoughts, Jesus said to them, “Every kingdom divided against itself will be laid waste, and a house divided against a house will fall.
18 If Satan is divided against himself, how can his kingdom stand? After all, you say that I drive out demons by Beelzebul.
19 And if I drive out demons by Beelzebul, by whom do your sons drive them out? So then, they will be your judges.
20 But if I drive out demons by the finger of God, then the kingdom of God has come upon you.
