21
And they went into Capernaum; and straightway on the sabbath day he entered into the synagogue, and taught.
22
And they were astonished at his doctrine: for he taught* them as one that had authority, and not as the scribes.
23
And there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit; and he cried out,
24
Saying, Let us alone; what have we to do with thee, thou Jesus of Nazareth? art thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art, the Holy One of God.
25
And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Hold thy peace, and come out of him.
26
And when the unclean spirit had torn him, and cried with a loud voice, he came out of him.
27
And they were all amazed, insomuch that they questioned among themselves, saying, What thing is this? what new doctrine is this? for with authority commandeth he even the unclean spirits, and they do obey him.
28
And immediately his fame spread abroad throughout all the region round about Galilee.
29
And forthwith, when they were come out of the synagogue, they entered into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.
30
But Simon's wife's mother lay sick of a fever, and anon they tell him of her.
31
And he came and took her by the hand, and lifted her up; and immediately the fever left her, and she ministered unto them.
32
And at even, when the sun did set, they brought unto him all that were diseased, and them that were possessed with devils.
33
And all the city was gathered together at the door.
34
And he healed many that were sick of divers diseases, and cast out many devils; and suffered not the devils to speak,[a] because they knew him.
35
And in the morning, rising up a great while before day, he went out, and departed into a solitary place, and there prayed.
36
And Simon and they that were with him followed after him.
37
And when they had found him, they said unto him*, All men seek for thee.
38
And he said unto them, Let us go into the next towns, that I may preach there also: for therefore came I forth.
39
And he preached* in their synagogues throughout all Galilee, and cast out devils.
40
And there came a leper to him, beseeching him, and kneeling down to him, and saying unto him*, If thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.
41
And Jesus, moved with compassion, put forth his hand, and touched him, and saith unto him, I will; be thou clean.
42
And as soon as he had spoken, immediately the leprosy departed from him, and he was cleansed.
43
And he straitly charged him, and forthwith sent him away;
44
And saith unto him, See thou say nothing to any man: but go thy way, shew thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing those things which Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them.
45
But he went out, and began to publish it much, and to blaze abroad the matter, insomuch that Jesus could no more openly enter into the city, but was without in desert places: and they came to him from every quarter.
Mark 1:21-45 Meaning and Commentary
INTRODUCTION TO MARK
This is the title of the book, the subject of which is the Gospel; a joyful account of the ministry, miracles, actions, and sufferings of Christ: the writer of it was not one of the twelve apostles, but an evangelist; the same with John Mark, or John, whose surname was Mark: John was his Hebrew name, and Mark his Gentile name, Ac 12:12,25, and was Barnabas's sister's son, Col 4:10, his mother's name was Mary, Ac 12:12. The Apostle Peter calls him his son, 1Pe 5:13, if he is the same; and he is thought to have wrote his Gospel from him {a}, and by his order, and which was afterwards examined and approved by him {b} it is said to have been wrote originally in Latin, or in the Roman tongue: so say the Arabic and Persic versions at the beginning of it, and the Syriac version says the same at the end: but of this there is no evidence, any more, nor so much, as of Matthew's writing his Gospel in Hebrew. The old Latin copy of this, is a version from the Greek; it is most likely that it was originally written in Greek, as the rest of the New Testament.
{a} Papias apud Euseb. Hist. l. 3. c. 39. Tertull. adv. Marcion. l. 4. c. 5. {b} Hieron. Catalog. Script. Eccles. p. 91. sect. 18.

Jesus Came and the Demons Went, Part 3
Jeff Johnson
We have been studying about the power of Jesus’s words when spoke. He has authority over the elements and spiritual hosts in heavenly places. Demons are very real, but as Christians we shouldn’t fear them. We should however be in prayer daily and fast often as Jesus did. Christ is not physically on earth with us, but we have His Word and the authority of His name. Pastor Jeff is in the Gospel of Mark chapter 1, in the conclusion of the series, “Jesus Came, Demons Went.”

Jesus Came and the Demons Went, Part 2
Jeff Johnson
The Word of God tells us that Satan formerly known, as Lucifer was an angel. He was expelled from heaven because of iniquity was found in him. But he wasn’t alone in his rebellion. Other Angels fell with him and were sent to the earth. These are called demons and they dwell amongst us. On this edition of Sound Doctrine, Pastor Jeff will teach us about the characteristics and principle by which these fallen angels operate. This is the series titled, “Jesus Came, Demons Went.”
Jesus Came and the Demons Went, Part 1
Jeff Johnson
The Word of God came to the earth and dwelt among us. Jesus healed, and transformed many lives during His three-year public ministry. And on today’s edition of Sound Doctrine, Pastor Jeff is reminding us that the Word is still here, in the form of the bible. This book is living, active, and sharp to cut through strongholds, and heal the broken hearted. We are in the Gospel of Mark chapter 1, in the new series, “Jesus Comes, Demons Went.”
