Luke 5:18-20 (KJV)
18 And, behold, men brought in a bed a man which was taken with a palsy: and they sought means to bring him in, and to lay him before him.
19 And when they could not find by what way they might bring him in because of the multitude, they went upon the housetop, and let him down through the tiling with his couch into the midst before Jesus.
20 And when he saw their faith, he said unto him, Man, thy sins are forgiven thee.
Luke 5
Jesus Said He Is God: Luke 5
Because Jesus is the Son of Man, this means He is God. He holds the power to forgive our sins and to raise us up unto eternal life.
Luke 5:30-32
Luke 5:30-32 (KJV)
30 But their scribes and Pharisees murmured against his disciples, saying, Why do ye eat and drink with publicans and sinners?
31 And Jesus answering said unto them, They that are whole need not a physician; but they that are sick.
32 I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.
Repent And Trust In Jesus
Please know that Jesus is so willing to help us, when we put forth effort. We must dine with Him, as sinners did when He was on earth.
Preaching On Matthew 19
If we are following God’s commandments then we are also loving one another, including the poor and afflicted and following Him.
Our Faith In Jesus
Seek to love one another as you love God. This is the greatest commandment of God. We are in the faith when we obey God’s commandments.
