Mark wastes no time in presenting Jesus as a man of action. Right from the start, we see Jesus healing the sick, casting out demons, and calming storms. This emphasis on action is highlighted by Mark's frequent use of the word "immediately" (see Mark 1:10, 12, 20, 29). Jesus' authority is undeniable, leaving people astonished and saying, "What thing is this? for with authority commandeth he even the unclean spirits, and they do obey him" (Mark 1:27).

"Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight." (Mark 1:3, King James Version)

"I indeed have baptized you with water: but he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost." (Mk 1:8, King James Version)
