Welcome to Calvary's Online Campus!

Join us as we continue our in-depth, line-by-line, verse-by-verse expositional study of the Gospel of Mark, focusing today on Mark 1:21-28. In this message, we explore, “The Authority of Jesus Over Darkness,” a recurring theme that culminates in His ultimate triumph over death and darkness through His resurrection. This study is part of our ongoing series through the shortest and earliest Gospel, written by Mark, yet rich with profound layers of Jesus’ life and ministry.

What You’ll Discover:
1. Jesus’ Divine Authority: Witness how Jesus teaches with unparalleled authority in the synagogue at Capernaum, astonishing those who hear Him (Mark 1:21-22). Learn how His authority is rooted in Scripture, with references to Matthew 28:18, John 5:26-27, and Hebrews 1:1-3.

2. Confronting Darkness: See Jesus confront an unclean spirit in a dramatic encounter (Mark 1:23-26). Understand why demonic activity was so prevalent during Jesus’ ministry compared to the Old Testament and post-ministry periods.

3. The Abyss and Spiritual Realities: Dive into the biblical concept of the abyss and the fate of fallen angels, with insights from Luke 8:30-31, 2 Peter 2:4, and Jude 6-7.

4. Jesus’ Power Over Evil: Marvel at how Jesus casts out demons with a single word, as seen in Mark 1:25-28, Matthew 8:16, and Mark 1:34, demonstrating His supreme authority over all powers.

5. Our Authority in Christ: Discover how Jesus shares His authority with believers, empowering us to overcome darkness through Him. Key verses include 1 John 4:4, Colossians 1:13, James 4:7, Luke 10:19, and Matthew 16:18.

This teaching is perfect for those seeking a deeper understanding of the Gospel of Mark, Jesus’ authority, and how His power applies to our lives today. Whether you’re a new believer, a seasoned Christian, or simply curious about the Bible, this expositional study will equip you with biblical insights and practical truths to grow in faith and confront spiritual challenges.

We pray that you are blessed by the message!
