Text: Mark 5:21-34
How many in here like cookies? Anyone like cookies? Okay. When it comes to the cookie battle there are two major cookies in our world. There are Chocolate Chip Chips Ahoy, made by Nabisco, and there are Oreos. The greatest cookie known to man is the Oreo. So, who would say, "Chocolate Chip is my favorite cookie, Chips Ahoy?" Okay. Yeah, well, this is America. You have a right to be wrong. Who would say, "Oreo is the favorite cookie?" Oreo is the number-one selling cookie.

And Jesus purposely goes to where that guy was. He goes across the Sea of Galilee. We have a picture of how He did that.

You know, nobody could do anything with this guy because he was filled with a legion of demons. Remember Jesus said, "What is your name?" He said, "Legion, for we are many." He cast out the demons into the two thousand swine, and they run off the cliff and are drowned in the Sea of G ...
