MIRACLES: Jesus Heals a Paralytic Man
Tune in to find out how much power Jesus has - power over sickness! Yes, even Covid-19!
Have you ever been sick? Have you had to go to hospital?
If you were really ill, but didn’t know how to get better, wouldn’t you want to try everything?
Some people do not like that Jesus has this power! They think he is an ordinary man.
Jesus is God. He is proving this by performing miracles. God can forgive sins and people can’t. We can forgive other when they wrong us but not sins because they are things people do that wrong God.
Jesus can forgive sins because he is God.
Bible Reading: Mark 2:1-12
Why did Jesus tell the man that his sins were forgiven? He was clearly there to be healed?
Jesus saw that the man’s biggest problem was his sins.
Your biggest problem are your sins too.
What do you worry about? People being mean to you at school, where you are going to sit in class, who you will play with? Your sins are a bigger problem than those things.
Maybe you have even bigger problems than that - you might have cancer, you might be paralysed too, you might not have anywhere to live or maybe you have no food. Your sins are still your biggest problem.

Why are our sins a bigger problem than not being able to walk, than cancer or any other disease?
