1 | Why couldnt the demons say who Jesus is? | Mark 1:34 | abbab24 | 210632 | ||
When reading in Mark I found it interesting that Jesus told the demons not to tell who He was. Did the people who were there not hear them saying He was the Son of God? What am I missing? Why would He not want them to tell anyone who He is? | ||||||

Hi, Mike... Welcome to the forum! The Lord Jesus Christ didn't need the testimony of demons to affirm His identity. In Jewish circles we affirm the the correctness and veracity of a statement with the word amen (i.e., it is trustworthy). This is always done after hearing the statement. Christ never needed others to confirm His words. Often before He began speaking, He Himself would confirm His own words (Hebrews 6:13) by saying, amen and amen (John 1:17; Hebrews 1:1-2). In Him, Doc |

Actually, some did: (KJV, sorry) Matt. 8:29 And, behold, they cried out, saying, What have we to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of God? art thou come hither to torment us before the time? Mark 5:7 And cried with a loud voice, and said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, [thou] Son of the most high God? I adjure thee by God, that thou torment me not. Luke 8:28 When he saw Jesus, he cried out, and fell down before him, and with a loud voice said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, [thou] Son of God most high? I beseech thee, torment me not. Though: 1Cor. 12:3 Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed: and [that] no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost. --corrective. ©2008. |
