No Dialog with Evil Spirits

The daemon was praising the Lord, and He replied: “Be quiet and come out of him” [Mk. 1:24-25]. No matter what they say or do, daemons never have good intentions: they always mean to cause harm. Such was also the case here, and the Savior, unwilling to waste His words …

Authority from the Heart

The Lord was teaching in the synagogue at Capernaum, and everyone marveled at His words: “For he taught them as one that had authority, and not as the scribes” [Mk. 1:22]. That authority is not an assertive manner of speech, but rather the power of influence upon the human soul. …
