Mark 6:13

Sickness and healingSpiritual warfare

11 If anyone will not welcome you or listen to you, shake the dust off your feet when you leave that place, as a testimony against them.”

12 So they set out and preached that the people should repent.

They also drove out many demons and healed many of the sick, anointing them with oil.

14 Now King Herod heard about this, for Jesus’ name had become well known, and people were saying, “John the Baptist has risen from the dead! That is why miraculous powers are at work in him.”

15 Others were saying, “He is Elijah,” and still others, “He is a prophet, like one of the prophets of old.”
