What Jesus Came For - Mark 1:21-45

The message of the Gospel of God and its ‘breaking-in’ of God’s Kingdom is clearly disclosed here. The sickness as a consequence of the Fall and the subjugation of the demonic are shown. Importantly, four of those called to follow Jesus witnessed this ‘in-breaking’ first hand. Bundled in this account is Christ’s subtle example of early morning prayer, wherein sleeplessness is made use of for Divine communion.
