The Hardening Power Of Unbelief

Matthew 12:45  

"Then goeth he, and taketh with himself seven other spirits more wicked

than himself, and they enter in and dwell there: and the last state

of that man is worse than the first. even so shall it be

also unto this wicked generation."

       Christ made the point to His teaching very simple. The point of the parable of the Empty House; is that the Law may negatively empty a man of evil, but only the gospel can fill him with good. The Law therefore simply leaves a man an empty invitation for all evil to take up its residence within his heart; the gospel fills him with positive goodness that evil cannot enter in. Here is Jesus' claim, "that the gospel can do for men what the Law can never do."  Myself, I would rather be "Held by the Hands Of God," than the hands of Evil !!
        Amen!!
