Just then there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit, and he cried out, “What have you to do with us, Jesus of Nazareth?

Have you come to destroy us?

I know who you are, the Holy One of God.”

But Jesus rebuked him, saying, “Be silent, and come out of him!”

Mark 1:23–25

The ministry of Jesus was filled with all different kinds of encounters.

In Mark chapter 1, Jesus is in the local synagogue teaching about the kingdom of God, when a man with an unclean spirit (demon) cries out to him.

The man with the spirit knows Jesus’ name, his power over evil, and his true identity.

This tells us a lot about Jesus and the forces he faced.

Join us Sunday as we consider the healing power of Jesus.
