02.23.2015 New Testament: Mark 5.18

To read the Bible in a year, read Mark 5.1–20 on February 23, In the year of our Lord 2015

By Don Ruhl

Jesus cast demons out of a man. The man was so grateful to the Lord, that the man wanted to follow Jesus everywhere,

And when He got into the boat, he who had been demon-possessed begged Him that he might be with Him (Mark 5.18). 

That makes sense. Would you not want to be with Jesus, if He had cast demons out of you? He may not have cast demons out of you, but if you are a Christian, He has delivered you from the bondage of sin, and from the fires of hell. Are those reasons enough to beg Jesus to be with Him?
