Dear Father, it goes too far to suspect Your Son of being in league with the devil when He heals, and to accuse Him of being possessed by a demon when He speaks the word of wisdom, as happened to Him in Israel.
When such terrible things are said, one almost irrevocably closes the door to true knowledge. The more one argues against the obviousness of Your action, the greater the danger of committing the sin against the Holy Spirit. It is the very sin the devil committed: the willful sin against better knowledge. It is unforgivable, as Scripture testifies. May the Lord protect people from ever committing blasphemy against the Holy Spirit.
How differently You wish to grant us knowledge; it is always connected with the taste of truth and love. It untangles our thinking and clears the way to encounter You ever more deeply. This clarity is found in Holy Scripture and in authentic Church teaching. It is like pure water from the throne of the Lamb, incompatible with the half‑truths demons love to use to cloud and confuse. It is tragic when so‑called theologians corrupt the teachings without even realizing whom their deviations are inspired by. Here we must repeat what Jesus said of the Pharisees: “They did not recognize Him.”
To be safe from confusion, dear Father, we will always remain faithful to Your teaching, be anchored in Your instructions, make use of the gifts of the sacraments, and remain united with You in watchful prayer, so that nothing may stand between You and us. Then, by Your beloved grace, the devil’s cunning attempts will not confuse us.
