Epiphany 4

Jesus’ healing of a man with an ‘unclean spirit’ is the first act he does in Mark’s Gospel, and it is dramatic. He is presenting himself from the start as someone who will be different and will make a difference. Both Jesus’ teaching and his actions reveal that he is the ‘Holy One of God’, and the word begins to spread about him.

What is it about Jesus’ words and actions that show authority? What do you need to see to give authority to someone’s words?
