Mark 1:15 and saying, "The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in the gospel."
Mark 1:16 ¶ As He was going along by the Sea of Galilee, He saw Simon and Andrew, the brother of Simon, casting a net in the sea; for they were fishermen.
Mark 1:17 And Jesus said to them, "Follow Me, and I will make you become fishers of men."
Mark 1:18 Immediately they left their nets and followed Him.
Mark 1:19 Going on a little farther, He saw James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, who were also in the boat mending the nets.

Mark 1:21 ¶ They *went into Capernaum; and immediately on the Sabbath He entered the synagogue and began to teach.
Mark 1:22 They were amazed at His teaching; for He was teaching them as one having authority, and not as the scribes.
Mark 1:23 Just then there was a man in their synagogue with an unclean spirit; and he cried out,
Mark 1:24 saying, "What business do we have with each other, Jesus of Nazareth? Have You come to destroy us? I know who You are--the Holy One of God!"
Mark 1:25 And Jesus rebuked him, saying, "Be quiet, and come out of him!"
Mark 1:26 Throwing him into convulsions, the unclean spirit cried out with a loud voice and came out of him.
Mark 1:27 They were all amazed, so that they debated among themselves, saying, "What is this? A new teaching with authority! He commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey Him."
Mark 1:28 Immediately the news about Him spread everywhere into all the surrounding district of Galilee.
Mark 1:29 ¶ And immediately after they came out of the synagogue, they came into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.
Mark 1:30 Now Simon's mother-in-law was lying sick with a fever; and immediately they *spoke to Jesus about her.
Mark 1:31 And He came to her and raised her up, taking her by the hand, and the fever left her, and she waited on them.
Mark 1:32 ¶ When evening came, after the sun had set, they began bringing to Him all who were ill and those who were demon-possessed.
Mark 1:33 And the whole city had gathered at the door.
