The Gospel According to Mark • May 31st, 2020

The text we’re in today can be quite sobering; what I mean is that in the scope of twenty verses Mark sets in front of us a world where Jesus’ presence confronts every opposition to peace - be it rebellious spiritual beings or rebellious people. This is not a new scene in the gospel according to Mark; but up until this point, this is perhaps the most graphic depiction of evil’s reign in this present age.
