As you read Mark 1:21-5:43 you notice Jesus possessing authority. He has authority to teach, to forgive sins, over creation, over demons, and to heal the sick. Refer back to page 1812 and read about Jesus’ authority under The Distinctives of Mark. What do you believe the main purpose(s) of Mark’s recording Jesus’ authority? Mark presents Jesus as the suffering servant as well. Do you think it is contradictory for a servant to have such authority? Why or why not?
