DAILY, WEEKEND, AND HOLIDAY INTERNET EVANGELIZE TO THE WORLD MINISTRY

“Rise, Take Up Your Bed and Walk” Excerpt The scribes must have arrived early, because they were near enough to  Jesus to see and hear all that went on ( v .  6 ). Of course, it would have been much  easier for Jesus to say “Your  sins be forgiven,” for nobody could prove whether or  not the man’s sins were indeed forgiven. So, Jesus backed up His word of  forgiveness with a word of healing, and the man went home whole. The scribes  knew that Jesus was claiming to be God, and this was the beginning of their opposition to His message and ministry,  opposition that led finally to Christ’s  arrest and crucifixion.  More Wiersbe, Warren W.  Wiersbe’s Expository Outlines on the New Testament .
