Gospel, Mark 1:21-28

²¹ They went as far as Capernaum, and at once on the Sabbath he went into the synagogue and began to teach.

²² And his teaching made a deep impression on them because, unlike the scribes, he taught them with authority.

²³ And at once in their synagogue there was a man with an unclean spirit, and he shouted,

²⁴ 'What do you want with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are: the Holy One of God.'

²⁵ But Jesus rebuked it saying, 'Be quiet! Come out of him!'

²⁶ And the unclean spirit threw the man into convulsions and with a loud cry went out of him.

²⁷ The people were so astonished that they started asking one another what it all meant, saying, 'Here is a teaching that is new, and with authority behind it: he gives orders even to unclean spirits and they obey him.'

²⁸ And his reputation at once spread everywhere, through all the surrounding Galilean countryside.

Reading 2, First Corinthians 7:32-35

³² I should like you to have your minds free from all worry. The unmarried man gives his mind to the Lord's affairs and to how he can please the Lord;

³³ but the man who is married gives his mind to the affairs of this world and to how he can please his wife, and he is divided in mind.

³⁴ So, too, the unmarried woman, and the virgin, gives her mind to the Lord's affairs and to being holy in body and spirit; but the married woman gives her mind to the affairs of this world and to how she can please her husband.

³⁵ I am saying this only to help you, not to put a bridle on you, but so that everything is as it should be, and you are able to give your undivided attention to the Lord.
