Following a scoreless 98 minutes of normal time, Spain thundered to a 1-0 victory in extra time on a goal scored by Ferran Torres in the 105th minute of the contest...''
Luke 11:20 (KJV):
“But if I with the finger of God cast out devils, no doubt the kingdom of God is come upon you.”
This is one of Jesus' strongest statements about who He is and what His ministry means.
The context is that some people had accused Him of casting out demons by Satan's power. Jesus answers that if He is casting out demons "with the finger of God," then the only reasonable conclusion is that God's kingdom is actively at work among them.
The expression refers to God's own power and direct action.
It appears elsewhere in Scripture:
Exodus 8:19 – After one of the plagues in Egypt, Pharaoh's magicians admitted,
"This is the finger of God."
Exodus 31:18 – The Ten Commandments were written by "the finger of God."
The phrase symbolizes God's unmistakable, divine work.
Jesus is saying that His miracles are not merely displays of power—they are evidence that God Himself is acting through Him. The casting out of demons shows that Satan's dominion is being invaded and overcome.
In the parallel account in Matthew 12:28, Jesus says:
"But if I cast out devils by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God is come unto you."
Comparing the two passages shows that "the finger of God" and "the Spirit of God" refer to God's divine power at work. This is one of several places where the Gospels present the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit working together.
Jesus does not mean that the final, eternal kingdom had already arrived in its fullness. Rather, He means that God's reign had broken into history through the presence of the Messiah.
His miracles, teachings, forgiveness of sins, and authority over demons were signs that the promised King had come. People now had to decide whether to receive or reject Him.
So this verse is both a declaration of Jesus' divine authority and a warning: those who witnessed these miracles were seeing God's kingdom at work before their very eyes.

Inexplicable! Good grief. I mean what a terrible thing to do to that student pilot. She's going to be traumatized for life. Suicide alone is not the right decision of course, but to do it with somebody else on board at the time is unthinkable . Prayers for the student pilot, and the loved ones of bertazzo. ✝️❤️🙏
