    Isn’t it amazing that people in Jesus day were so blind, while the demons were so clear about who Jesus was?

    The miracle in Gadara. Mark 5:1 -- 20. 11/23/03 Down in South Carolina, there was this area part swamp land and wooded area pretty far from any house. One evening I decided I would go hunting in that area. I would carry my bow and arrows and tree stand about a mile and one-half back in the ...read more

    We are in a battle. The church is an army, not a hospital, and we signed up for a battle-ship not a cruise liner. But how can we win in the battle of life and faith? This passage shows how.

    Winning the war Mk5:1-20 WBC 31/08/03pm I think we forget what a battle the Christian faith is! - join up for this luxury cruiser that will take us to heaven - find it’s a sleek battleship and - God isn’t particularly sympathetic when we say we don’t like the ‘heat of the day’… battle To ...read more

    "Commission"

    Contributed by Clark Tanner on Oct 17, 2003
    based on 76 ratings
     | 5,988 views

    Jesus had a commission from the Father, which He fulfilled perfectly. We also have a commission, but ministry opportunities aren’t always pretty.

    I call the Gospel of Mark the ‘guy’s gospel’. It’s full of action from the very start. It is descriptive. Jesus sleeps in the boat during a storm, we’re told by Matthew Mark and Luke, but only Mark mentions that He’s sleeping on a cushion (4:38). All four Gospel writers tell of His feeding ...read more

    From Ruin To Redemption Text: Mark 5: 1-6, 15 Intro: Today’s text vividly portrays the depths to which a person under Satan’s control can sink. But that’s not all that is in view here. We also see in sharp contrast to this former destructive condition the power of God to deliver one who ...read more

    People often focus on physical healing. There are more areas that need healing than merely our bodies. We need spiritual and emotional healing also. Jesus touches our lives and heals us in whatever we need to be healed.

    Mark 5:1-13 “Jesus Heals the Inner Person” INTRODUCTION There are many memorable people in the Bible. There is Moses, Ruth, David, Peter, Mary and Martha. The man in our story this evening is one of the most memorable people in the Bible, for me, because of his total misery and ...read more
