Matthew 9:3-4 "Who Can Forgive Sins but God Alone"

Luke 5:12-26 | In this text, we are going to see a theme of restoration. Restoration is taking something damaged, deteriorated, or altered and bringing it back to its proper, designed state. Luke here shares two stories that on the surface are physical healings, but as we look deeper, we will see that these are not just examples of repair of broken bodies, but examples of restoration that have implications for us today. The summary point of the sermon is this: Jesus has the authority to forgive sins and thus restore our relationship to God forever.

We learn from the passage in Luke 5:17-35 that Jesus healed a paralytic man, proving His authority over physical and spiritual transformation. The onlookers were amazed and glorified God as they witnessed the supernatural work of His hand. Jesus was called to seek and save the lost, the broken, and the sick.

Jesus' Authority to Forgive Sins

In John 20:22–23, Jesus tells His disciples, “If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven them.” But doesn't Scripture teach that only God can forgive sins? In this episode of Curious Faith: Questions Answered, we explore what Jesus actually meant in this surprising passage. We'll look at the context of Christ's commission to His disciples, how the original language clarifies the meaning, and why the church has the authority to declare forgiveness through the Gospel—not create it. This episode helps us understand the difference between divine forgiveness and the church's responsibility to proclaim it.

Pastor Josh Cardwell

Remember God loves you so much he sent his Son Jesus Christ to take the punishment for your sins. You are of great value. Jesus loves you and He is just a prayer away!

Today, Jesus accepts the challenge posed to him about his ability to forgive sins. He cured a paralytic to show that he can manage things that cannot be seen but happening in the soul.

Questions about how to answer the challenge that God doesn't need a “pound of flesh” to forgive sins but can simply forgive, and whether the claim in Romans 10:13 that everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved contradicts Matthew 7:21.   How do you answer the challenge that God doesn't need a “pound of flesh” to forgive sins but can simply forgive? Romans 10:13 says everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved, but Matthew 7:21 says not everyone who says “Lord, Lord” will be saved. Can you help me understand this contradiction?

In this profound and hope-filled Advent message, Pastor Karl continues the Christmas series with an honest, Scripture-saturated exploration of the third great gift Jesus brings: joy. Turning to the familiar yet astonishing encounter in Luke 1:26–38, Pastor Karl places us in the world of a young, powerless Mary—living in obscurity, poverty, and spiritual dryness under Roman oppression—when an angel suddenly declares her “highly favored” and announces she will bear the Son of God as a virgin.With pastoral clarity and compassion, Pastor Karl redefines biblical joy not as a forced smile, fleeting happiness, or denial of pain, but as a deep, settled confidence and calm cheerfulness in God—even when circumstances feel devastating. Mary's potentially ruinous situation (public shame, rejection, and lifelong stigma) becomes the backdrop for a joy that is rooted not in perfect conditions but in surrender to a perfect Savior. Joy, he shows, is not situational; it flows from trusting God's greater reality, His unchanging character, and His presence when clarity is absent.Drawing from Mary's radical response—“Let it be to me according to your word”—Pastor Karl tenderly calls every listener to the same doorway of lasting joy: radical surrender. Whether facing disappointment, health struggles, dashed dreams, or seasons of grief, joy grows when we release control, timelines, and the need to understand, and instead say “Yes, Lord” to whatever He has spoken. This is essential listening for anyone longing to move beyond seasonal happiness into the quiet, resilient cheerfulness that only Christ, born in a manger and risen from an empty tomb, can give.Watch all our sermons on our youtube channel "Flipside Christian Church"Join us in person 9:00am & 10:30am every Sunday morning.37193 Ave 12 #3h, Madera, CA 93636For more visit us at flipside.churchFor more podcasts visit flipsidepodcasts.transistor.fm

A Few Minutes In The Gospel Of Mark  Part 7:   Who Can Forgive Sins?  -  English only.  When Yeshua told a man that his sins were forgiven, some of the scribes were furious!  The scribes asked, "Who can forgive sins except for God?"  Messiah's response illustrates an important aspect of faith. This is a rebroadcast of a podcast originally recorded September 15, 2022. 

Lesson 1 - The One with Authority to Forgive Sins Mark 1:1-2:12. Mark's fast-paced Gospel about the life and ministry of Jesus makes a point of recording how people reacted to Him. Some believed His claims. Some doubted. Some even got angry. And that is still true today. Mark's Gospel will certainly challenge our own understanding of who we believe Jesus is!To learn more about Michele or to support this international ministry please visit https://intheword.com

Matthew chapter 9 verses 1 thru 9 will be the focus of our study with Dr. Mitchell in this lesson.As we heard, Jesus, once again passed over the sea of Galilee to his own city. When He arrived, some people brought a paralytic to Him. So Jesus tells the man, Your sins are forgiven. Jesus, being omniscient, knew the evil thinking in the hearts of the scribes who were accusing Jesus of blasphemy. So, it was necessary for our Lord to demonstrate His authority to forgive sins. That is just what He did before them all.In verse 9 Matthew writes of his own call from Jesus to follow Him. Matthew, sitting at the tax booth, arose and followed Jesus. As a result, you and I are reading his gospel right now.Here's Dr. Mitchell, Matthew 9:1-9 on the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast.

Our lesson begins in Matthew chapter 8. We will be looking into verses 1 thru 4 here on the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast.Dr. Mitchell points out the power of our Lord Jesus in this chapter. Jesus has power over disease, over demons, and over nature.So in this study, we see Jesus displaying power over disease by healing a leper. Leprosy is a picture of the defilement of sin. Jesus' healing this leprous man demonstrates His authority to forgive sins. This act showed Jesus as the Messiah spoken about in the O.T. The Messiah would be able to heal and He did.Jesus is able to heal the sick of spirit, of soul and of body. Jesus has died and shed His blood to cleanse from sin and guilt. The one who reaches out to Him in prayer and faith can receive that forgiveness and cleansing before God Himself. Here is Dr. Mitchell, Matthew 8:1-4.

From Mark 2:1-17.Preached by Everett Berry.

David and Kyle look at Matthew 9:1-8, and explore how Jesus has authority to forgive sins.

Faith is not something merely hid away in the heart, but is manifested by the actions of those who are possessed by it.

Zech Schiebout – Mark 2:1-12

Mark 2:1-12

Jesus' kingdom authority has been the focus throughout Mark 1. He burst onto the scene proclaiming that the Kingdom of God is at hand and calling people to repent and believe the good news. Then, Mark presents four consecutive miracles that demonstrate Christ's authority. Jesus casts out an unclean spirit in the synagogue of Capernaum, showing His authority over the kingdom of darkness. He heals Peter's mother-in-law because He has authority over every effect of the fall. Last week, we examined the third miracle, when Jesus cleansed a leper. Only Christ has the authority to make the unclean clean. Each of these miracles reveals more of the Messiah's authority to bring God's Kingdom, culminating in the exercise of His most incredible display of authority. This Sunday, Mark presents the fourth miracle, revealing that Jesus has the authority to forgive sin. The story of four men breaking through the roof to let down their paralytic friend before Jesus is a well-known narrative. Yet, this event is not just another physical healing. After seeing the faith of these men who are determined to get to Jesus and seeing the paralyzed man suffering before Him, Jesus does not immediately say, “Pick up your bed and walk.” Instead, His first words are, “Son, your sins are forgiven.” Jesus looks past this man's physical suffering and meets his greatest need. Jesus only heals this man's physical body to prove that He has the authority to forgive sins. When Christ pronounces the man's sins forgiven, scribes in the crowd are offended that Jesus would claim an authority only God has. Only God can forgive sins, and claiming this authority is blasphemy. Knowing what is in their hearts, Jesus heals this man proving that He indeed is “the Son of Man” and “has authority on earth to forgive sins.” (Mark 2:10). I. Setting (v. 1-2) II. Faith Is Displayed In Action (v. 3-5a) III. Jesus Meets Our Greatest Need (v. 5) IV. Jesus Has Authority To Forgive Sin (v. 6-12)

We continue with our Q&A series. This study answers: “Are we "watchmen" today?" "Did Jesus give the disciples the power to forgive sin?" and "What are angels for?" In this study, Evangelists Jacob Holman and Gavin Williams answer more Bible questions.

Luke 5:17-26

Pastor David Erickson begins chapter two of Mark by reading through the miracle of the paralytic, depicting how persistent faith prompts historic action. In this passage, it is proven that only Jesus has the authority to forgive sins.
