The fame of him spread all through the surrounding country, and people brought him all their sick, those who suffered from all manner of disease and pain, demoniacs, epileptics, and paralytics; he healed them all.

Many will say to me at that Day, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name? did we not cast out daemons in your name? did we not perform many miracles in your name?'

As they went out, a dumb man was brought to him, who was possessed by a daemon,

Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse lepers, cast out daemons; give without paying, as you have got without paying;

Then a blind and dumb demoniac was brought to him, and he healed him, so that the dumb man spoke and saw.

Besides, if I cast out daemons by Beelzebul, by whom do your sons cast them out? Thus they will be your judges.

Then it goes off to fetch seven other spirits worse than itself; they go in and dwell there, and the last state of that man is worse than the first. This is how it will be with the present evil generation."

And large crowds came to him bringing the lame, and the blind, the dumb, the maimed, and many others; they laid them at his feet, and he healed them.

"Jesus of Nazaret, what business have you with us? Have you come to destroy us? We know who you are, you are God's holy One." But Jesus checked it; "Be quiet," he said, "come out of him."

Now when evening came, when the sun set, they brought him all who were ill or possessed by daemons ??33 indeed the whole town was gathered at the door ??34 and he cured many who were ill with various diseases and cast out many daemons; but as the daemons knew him he would not let them say anything.

shrieking aloud, "Jesus, son of God most High, what business have you with me? By God, I adjure you, do not torture me."

And Jesus gave them leave. Then out came the unclean spirits and entered the swine, and the drove rushed down the steep slope into the sea (there were about two thousand of them) and in the sea they were drowned.

And a deaf man who stammered was brought to him, with the request that he would lay his hand on him.

and whenever it seizes him it throws him down, and he foams at the mouth and grinds his teeth. He is wasting away with it; so I told your disciples to cast it out, but they could not."

Now as Jesus saw that a crowd was rapidly gathering, he checked the unclean spirit. "Deaf and dumb spirit," he said, "leave him, I command you, and never enter him again."

Now as Jesus saw that a crowd was rapidly gathering, he checked the unclean spirit. "Deaf and dumb spirit," he said, "leave him, I command you, and never enter him again."

John said to him, "Teacher, we saw a man casting out daemons in your name; but he does not follow us, and so we stopped him."

He is not the God of dead people but of living. You are far wrong."

(a) Now after he rose early on the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary of Magdala out of whom he had cast seven daemons.

for he shall be great in the sight of the Lord, he will drink neither wine nor strong drink, he will be filled with the holy Spirit from his very birth;

as he promised of old by the lips of his prophets

With them he came down the hill and stood on a level spot. There was a great company of his disciples with him, and a large multitude of people from all Judaea, from Jerusalem, and from the coast of Tyre and Sidon, who had come to hear him and to get cured of their diseases.

Jesus at that moment was healing many people of diseases and complaints and evil spirits; he also bestowed sight on many blind folk.

and by some women who had been healed of evil spirits and illnesses, Mary called Magdalene (out of whom seven daemons had been driven),

He was casting out a dumb daemon, and when the daemon had gone out the dumb man spoke. The crowds marvelled,

Others by way of tempting him demanded he should give them a Sign from heaven.

If I cast out daemons by Beelzebul, by whom do your sons cast them out? Thus they will be your judges.

Then it goes off to fetch seven other spirits worse than itself; they go in and dwell there, and the last state of that man is worse than the first."

there was a woman who for eighteen years had suffered weakness from an evil spirit; indeed she was bent double and quite unable to raise herself.

"Go and tell that fox," he replied, "I cast out daemons and perform cures to-day and to-morrow, and on the third day I complete my task!

Why, it is easier for a camel to get through a needle's eye than for a rich man to get into the Realm of God."

The crowd replied, "You are mad. Who wants to kill you?"

During the course of the day of Pentecost they were all together,

when they got as far as Mysia, they tried to enter Bithynia, but the Spirit of Jesus would not allow them,

But you are not in the flesh, you are in the Spirit, since the Spirit of God dwells within you. Anyone who does not possess the Spirit of Christ does not belong to Him.

I have been crucified with Christ, and it is no longer I who live, Christ lives in me; the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God who loved me and gave himself up for me.

And do not vex God's holy Spirit, by whom you have been sealed for the day of redemption.

and do not get drunk with wine ??that means profligacy ??but be filled with the Spirit,

but emptied himself by taking the nature of a servant; born in human guise
