When his family heard this they went out to restrain him, for they said, “He is out of his mind.”

Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.’

Now some of the experts in the law were sitting there, turning these things over in their minds:

They came to Jesus and saw the demon-possessed man sitting there, clothed and in his right mind – the one who had the “Legion” – and they were afraid.

But after turning and looking at his disciples, he rebuked Peter and said, “Get behind me, Satan. You are not setting your mind on God’s interests, but on man’s.”

And to love him with all your heart, with all your mind, and with all your strength and to love your neighbor as yourself is more important than all burnt offerings and sacrifices.”

Immediately a rooster crowed a second time. Then Peter remembered what Jesus had said to him: “Before a rooster crows twice, you will deny me three times.” And he broke down and wept.

So they went out and preached that all should repent.

In the wilderness John the baptizer began preaching a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins.

He said, “The time is fulfilled and the kingdom of God is near. Repent and believe the gospel!”
