Be a Blessing – Sermon by Rev. Martha Dye

 

[Mark 1:21-28 NASB20] 21 They went into Capernaum; and immediately on the Sabbath [Jesus] entered the synagogue and [began] to teach. 22 And they were amazed at His teaching; for He was teaching them as [one] having authority, and not as the scribes. 23 Just then there was a man in their synagogue with an unclean spirit; and he cried out, 24 saying, “What business do You have with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have You come to destroy us? I know who You are: the Holy One of God!” 25 And Jesus rebuked him, saying, “Be quiet, and come out of him!”

26 After throwing him into convulsions and crying out with a loud voice, the unclean spirit came out of him. 27 And they were all amazed, so they debated among themselves, saying, “What is this? A new teaching with authority! He commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey Him.” 28 Immediately the news about Him spread everywhere into all the surrounding region of Galilee.
