Why Do You Question These Things In Your Hearts?

from All Saints Hampton · host John Winterburn

Now some teachers of the law were sitting there, thinking to themselves, “Why does this fellow talk like that? He’s blaspheming! Who can forgive sins but God alone?”Immediately Jesus knew in his spirit that this was what they were thinking in their hearts, and he said to them, “Why are you thinking these things? Which is easier: to say to this paralyzed man, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Get up, take your mat and walk’? But I want you to know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins.” So he said to the man, “I tell you, get up, take your mat and go home.”Mark 2:6-11

What this episode covers

In the first of our series looking at questions Jesus asked, we explore those doubts which we keep hidden inside us, hoping nobody - including God - knows. Maybe there are things we miss God doing because of our prior assumptions or prejudices. We must not miss what He is doing right before our eyes.
