The Galilean Ministry
Mark 1:14
Now after that John was put in prison, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God,


I. WHEN. After John's imprisonment. One witness of the truth silenced; but another raised up. After Moses, Joshua; after Stephen, Paul.

II. WHERE. Galilee. Where could He find work so readily as amidst the ceaseless toil and turmoil of these teeming villages?

III. WHAT.

1. Gospel of kingdom of God. Spiritual (1 Corinthians 15:50); righteous (Romans 14:17); near (Luke 21:31); inward (Luke 17:20, 21).

2. Repentance and faith: thus completing the work of John.

(H. Thorne.)
