The Gospel of Mark

Mark 2:1-17

A sermon from the home office :) Jesus proves His authority as God the Son in the miraculous healing of a paralytic. The Pharisees question whether or not He has the authority to forgive sins, and so Jesus proves it. We also see the “destructive” passionate faith of four friends that did whatever it took to get their paralyzed friend to the feet of Jesus. Jesus then calls His fifth disciple in Matthew and reclines at the dinner table with a bunch of sinners. What is our response when Jesus calls us? Do we immediately respond? Do we do whatever it takes to get people to the feet of Jesus?
