John the Baptist Prepares the Way

The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.

And the unclean spirits, whenever they saw Him, fell down before Him and cried out, saying, “You are the Son of God.”

And he cried out with a loud voice and said, “What have I to do with You, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I implore You by God that You do not torment me.”

So when the centurion, who stood opposite Him, saw that He cried out like this and breathed His last, he said, “Truly this Man was the Son of God!”
