Then Jesus placed his hands on the man’s eyes again,

and his eyes were opened.

His sight was completely restored,

and he could see everything clearly.

Mark 8:25

Then Jesus said,

“Let’s go off by ourselves to a quiet place and rest awhile.”

He said this because there were so many people coming and going

that Jesus and his apostles didn’t even have time to eat.

Mark 6:31

…he rebuked the wind and said to the waves,

“Silence! be still!”

Suddenly the wind stopped, and there was a great calm.

Then he asked them,

“Why are you afraid?

Do you still have no faith?”

The disciples were absolutely terrified.

“Who is this man?”

they asked each other.

“Even the wind and waves obey him!”

Mark 4:39-41

Then Jesus asked them,

“Would anyone light a lamp

and then put it under a basket or under a bed?

Of course not!

A lamp is placed on a stand, where its light will shine.

For everything that is hidden

will eventually be be brought into the open,

and every secret will be brought to light.

Mark 4:21-22

…they asked his disciples,

“Why does he eat with such scum?”

When Jesus heard this, he told them,

“Healthy people don’t need a doctor—sick people do.

I have come to call not those who think they are righteous,

but those who know they are sinners.”

Mark 2:16-17

A man with leprosy came and knelt in front of Jesus,

begging to be healed.

“If you are willing, you can heal me and make me clean,” he said.

Moved with compassion,

Jesus reached out and touched him.

“I am willing,” he said, “Be healed!”

Mark 1:40-41

Before daybreak the next morning,

Jesus got up and went out to an isolated place to pray.

Mark 1:35

Jesus came and told his disciples,

“I have been given all authority in heaven and on earth.

Therefore, go and make disciples of all nations,

baptizing them in the name of the Father

and the Son and the Holy Spirit.

Teach these new disciples to obey all the commands

I have given you.

And be sure of this:

I am with you always, even to the end of the age.”

Matthew 28:18-20

Then Jesus shouted out again,

and he released his spirit.

At that moment the curtain in the sanctuary of the Temple

was torn in two, from top to bottom.

The earth shook, rocks split apart,

and tombs opened.

The bodies of many godly men and women who had died

were raised from the dead.

Matthew 27:50-52

…the high priest said to him,

“I demand in the name of the living God—

tell us if you are the Messiah,

the Son of God.”

Jesus replied,

“You have said it.

And in the future you will see the Son of God

seated in the place of power at God’s right hand

and coming on the clouds of heaven.”

Matthew 26:63-64
