Mark 1:28
26 At this, the unclean spirit threw the man into convulsions and came out with a loud shriek.
27 All the people were amazed and began to ask one another, “What is this? A new teaching with authority! He commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey Him!”
And the news about Jesus spread quickly through the whole region of Galilee.
29 As soon as Jesus and His companions had left the synagogue, they went with James and John to the home of Simon and Andrew.
30 Simon’s mother-in-law was sick in bed with a fever, and they promptly told Jesus about her.
Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
