Summary
It sounds like Jesus should offer up another rejection to the unclean spirit because Jesus should only reject evil and demons and the demonic at every turn when the demon gives his name. So you see the unwritten rejection, the unwritten rejection is good news for you and me, because it means that the unwritten rejection of Jesus Christ, out of the abundance of his mercy, claims you as his own, as forgiven, as freed, just as the demoniac was freed from the power of Legion through Christ. As he was getting into the boat, the man who had been possessed by demons begged him that he might be with him, but Jesus refused and said to him, go home to your friends and tell them how much the Lord has done for you, and what mercy he has shown you, and he went away and began to proclaim in the decoupleus how much Jesus had done for him, and everyone was amazed. This man was given new life in Christ and Christ alone, and just as this man was given new life in Christ, we out of the abundance of Christ's mercy are given new life in his righteousness. The man was given this new life, and he was told what to do with it, created new in this new image that Christ had given him, Christ said, go tell your friends, tell your friends what the Lord has done for you, and he did, and he didn't just tell his friends, he went on a 10 city speaking to her, sharing with everyone. I was in darkness, I was in bondage to the evil, unclean spirit, and this man Jesus came, and in one word he made me clean, and he has made me new in his abundant mercy.
