		<description>1) Great content.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;2) Very complete. It is obvious that you have done your homework and research and understand the contexts, etc of the passages at hand.  This has allowed you to weave together a good message.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;3) Too complete for a sermon.  I don&#039;t know the setting and I don&#039;t know the people you&#039;ll be speaking to.  However, if this was given to me in direct oral form, I might check out 1/3 of the way through.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;4) Per #3, I&#039;d take a great written document and reconfigure it for effect oral presentation.  Cut out the bits about greek verb tenses.  The section:&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;But note how Mark describes Jesus response to their proposal of entering the pigs. Mark says, “Jesus gave them permission.” The aorist verb there is epitrepo, which means “to allow” and demonstrates the Messianic and Kingly authority that Jesus has over the demons. Mark is demonstrating the authority that Jesus has over this wicked, perverted, and chaotic order. Thus Mark has identified Jesus as the Davidic King who has authority over demons. &lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Can easily be reduced down to:&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Mark describes Jesus response to their proposal of entering the pigs in terms of His Messianic and Kingly authority  over this wicked, perverted, and chaotic order when he says that Jesus &quot;allowed&quot; them to enter the pigs.  Thus Mark has identified Jesus as the Davidic King who has authority over demons. &lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;You&#039;ve done your homework and can back up the statement with knowledge of the Greek, but keep in mind the need to capture and communicate to your audience.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I&#039;d give more, but I gotta get ready for a wedding, check out of this hotel, and pack the car in 25 min.</description>
