When accused of driving out demons by the power of Satan, Jesus responded bluntly. In the process, he narrowed down the focus of the spiritual activity to "for me or against me." Just two sides.
We often think of being a Christian as simply not being evil. Jesus, however, did not leave it at that. He clarified that his side is in the process of gathering. Like Jesus, his disciples bring people into the kingdom of God. They draw people closer to Jesus and not just passively. This is an active spiritual work.
So do my actions demonstrate that I am a gatherer to God? Or do I believe the delusion that good is the absence of evil?
