Luke 5:16-21 New International Version 16 But Jesus often withdrew to lonely places and prayed. Jesus Forgives and Heals a Paralyzed Man 17 One day Jesus was teaching, and Pharisees and teachers of the law were sitting there. They had come from every village of Galilee and from Judea and Jerusalem. And the power of the Lord was with Jesus to heal the sick. 18 Some men came carrying a paralyzed man on a mat and tried to take him into the house to lay him before Jesus. 19 When they could not find a way to do this because of the crowd, they went up on the roof and lowered him on his mat through the tiles into the middle of the crowd, right in front of Jesus. 20 When Jesus saw their faith, he said, “Friend, your sins are forgiven.” 21 The Pharisees and the teachers of the law began thinking to themselves, “Who is this fellow who speaks blasphemy? Who can forgive sins but God alone?”See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Peter, a child sexual abuse survivor himself, pulls back the curtain on the psychological reality of abuse, focusing on attachment disorders and the difficult path of cognitive rehabilitation. He challenges the church and society to move beyond labels while maintaining the strictest boundaries of accountability.The discussion explores the messy intersection of theology and psychology, using the parables of the Prodigal Son and the story of the Paralyzed Man to illustrate that while divine forgiveness is absolute, the earthly consequences of abuse are often permanent. Ness, Jon and Peter sit with the discomfort of the unthinkable, and unpack the difference between remorse and repentance, forgiveness and reconciliation, and what it actually costs to keep choosing grace when the filth in front of you is this real.#FilthyHope #FaithNoFilter #ChristianPodcast #ForgivenessAndFaith #TraumaRecovery #ChildSafetyAdvocate #RestorativeJustice #FaithAndPsychology

Jesus does way more than heal a man from being paralyzed.

Speaker - David Wood

When Jesus encounters a paralyzed man, he not only heals him of his physical condition, but also promises him forgiveness, as well. In this sermon, we look at how Jesus cares for every part of our lives, including the parts that are broken and in need of help. Key Verses: Mark 2:1-12

John 5:1-18 records the healing at the Pool of Bethesda. Jesus asks a man, an invalid for 38 years, “Do you want to get well?” Pastor Clayton King explores why we sometimes get stuck in our circumstances, but when we believe in Jesus, we can have a full and free life in His name.

Through the story of the paralytic, we see that when we can't get to Jesus on our own, He often uses the faith and love of others to carry us—and then calls us to do the same for someone else.

In this Bible study, Fr. Matthias Shehad explores the story of the paralyzed man in John chapter 5 within the context of the Jewish feast mentioned. Fr. Matthias explains the significance of the Pool of Bethesda, its location by the Sheep Gate, and its symbolic meaning relating to the Jewish people and the Law of Moses. He examines the dialogue between Jesus and the paralyzed man, highlighting the man's long suffering, Jesus' healing authority beyond the pool, and the man's response of faith and gratitude. Fr. Matthias also discusses the controversy surrounding Jesus healing on the Sabbath and clarifies the true purpose of the Sabbath as a day of doing good in alignment with the Father's ongoing work. A theological discourse follows on the unity between the Father and the Son, focusing on Jesus' divine authority, the role of faith in Him for eternal life, and the final resurrection and judgment. The study concludes with reflections on rejecting true prophets and the importance of embracing the Messiah promised in the Scriptures.

On a snowy day pastor Chris Ansell of Restoration Community Church previews the upcoming sermon series and shares a chapel message he gave at PUCS earlier in the week. Passages: Mark 2:1-12

What is carrying you toward Jesus?

Some stories in Scripture capture the essence of faith and leadership in just a few verses. The story of the paralyzed man and his four friends in Mark 2:1–12, Matthew 9:1–8, and Luke 5:17–26 is one of them—a story of faith in motion, compassion in action, and teamwork that moved heaven itself. In this episode, Ron explores what this moment reveals about authentic Christian leadership. These friends weren't scholars, pastors, or CEOs. They were ordinary people who believed that Jesus could do what no one else could—and their determination changed a life forever. Their example offers five timeless lessons for leaders in every sphere of influence today. Listeners will discover: How faith sees opportunity where others see obstacles. Why compassion gives leadership its strength. That faith in action inspires transformation. How teamwork multiplies impact. That the ultimate goal of leadership is to bring people to Jesus Ron unpacks these truths with practical insights and Scripture-based encouragement for business leaders, ministry leaders, and anyone called to influence others. Whether you're leading a team, managing a household, or serving in your church, this story reminds you that leadership isn't about status or control—it's about lifting others to Christ. Listen and be inspired to tear through the roofs of fear, comfort, and convention—so that others can meet Jesus because of your faith.

Mark 2 : 1 - 12 1 And again He entered Capernaum after some days, and it was heard that He was in the house. 2 Immediately many gathered together, so that there was no longer room to receive them, not even near the door. And He preached the word to them. 3 Then they came to Him, bringing a paralytic who was carried by four men. 4 And when they could not come near Him because of the crowd, they uncovered the roof where He was. So when they had broken through, they let down the bed on which the paralytic was lying. 5 When Jesus saw their faith, He said to the paralytic, "Son, your sins are forgiven you." 6 And some of the scribes were sitting there and reasoning in their hearts, 7 "Why does this Man speak blasphemies like this? Who can forgive sins but God alone?" 8 But immediately, when Jesus perceived in His spirit that they reasoned thus within themselves, He said to them, "Why do you reason about these things in your hearts? 9 Which is easier, to say to the paralytic, "Your sins are forgiven you,' or to say, "Arise, take up your bed and walk'? 10 But that you may know that the Son of Man has power on earth to forgive sins"--He said to the paralytic, 11 "I say to you, arise, take up your bed, and go to your house." 12 Immediately he arose, took up the bed, and went out in the presence of them all, so that all were amazed and glorified God, saying, "We never saw anything like this!" Glory be to God forever.

This podcast explores the story "Jesus Heals the Paralyzed Man," Mark 2:1-12.

Brian gives his sermon in Luke 5 over the paralyzed man.

DateMarch 16, 2025SynopsisIn this sermon from our Lenten series "Glitch: Reframing Sin and Finding Reconnection," we tackle the often-overlooked sin of acedia—a soul-numbing apathy that convinces us "this is just how things are." Jesus' encounter with the paralyzed man at Bethzatha reveals how we can become stuck in narratives of despair, our imaginations dried out by years of disappointment. But Jesus creates threshold moments, disrupting our cynicism with invitations to "stand up"—to crack open our shells and step into new possibilities. Like acorns beneath an oak tree, we're called to see beyond what is to what could be.ReferencesScripture: John 5:1–9About The Local ChurchFor more information about The Local Church, visit our website.

This week, we will be studying Luke 5:17-26 under the theme “Forgiving a Paralyzed Man.” Luke's Gospel repeatedly shows the theme of Jesus' healing for a hurting world. Jesus lets us know He is Lord and he has the power to forgive sins. Through our faith in Jesus, we are forgiven. He encourages us to bring people to him through our faith.The goal of Dr. Luke's Gospel is to present the universal reach of Jesus' gift of salvation. As a man of science, Luke was not particularly interested in mere spiritual opinions, feelings, rumors, or legends. Educated and orderly, Luke sifted through the garbage of misinformation and bad ideas to bring substantiated eyewitness verification of the truth—a gracious reality of mercy and justice for all.

Luke 5: 17 - 26 It's the 1st century AD. The people of God hold high expectations for a Messianic King to arrive at any moment. Prophecies foresaw this to happen around that time. Then Jesus enters the synagogue, and a new reality bursts upon the scene: “The Kingdom of God is near!” he preaches. And people react. Some reject, some doubt, and some drop everything to follow this Jesus. A few men even break through the roof of a crowded place to lower down a paralyzed man right to him. Here, Jesus sees their faith and forgives their sins. Then, he instructs the paralytic to walk, and the man picks up his mat and walks home. Who but the Messiah could heal AND forgive sins? This message from Mark Skillin will give you a deeper understanding of the kingdom of God, of the beauty of faith embodied, and why Jesus is the Messianic King who is worthy to rule the world.

Pastor Rick Horist visiting preacher from Trinity Reformed Baptist Church, La Mirada California. Matthew 9:1-8

The story of the healing at the pool of Bethesda profoundly illustrates the importance of engaging with Jesus and recognizing our need for healing, both physically and spiritually. Backstory: In John 5, we encounter a man who had been paralyzed for 38 years, lying by the pool of Bethesda, surrounded by others who were also in desperate need of healing. This setting is significant as it highlights the collective suffering and desperation of those seeking physical restoration. The pool was believed to have healing properties, with the superstition that the first person to enter the water after it was stirred would be healed. However, the man's response to Jesus reveals a deeper issue: he felt helpless and alone, stating, "I have no one to help me into the pool." This response underscores a common human condition—feeling abandoned and powerless in the face of our struggles. Jesus' Engagement When Jesus approaches the man, he asks a pivotal question: "Do you want to get well?" This question is not merely about physical healing; it invites the man to engage with Jesus on a deeper level. The man's initial response is filled with excuses, indicating a mindset focused on his limitations rather than the possibility of healing. This interaction emphasizes that recognizing our need for healing is the first step toward transformation. Jesus, the healer, is present, yet the man's response reflects a struggle to believe in the possibility of change. The Nature of Healing The healing that follows is immediate and miraculous. Jesus commands the man to "Get up, pick up your mat and walk," and he does so without hesitation. This act of healing is not just physical; it symbolizes a new beginning and a call to wholeness. However, the story does not end with the miracle. After the healing, the man encounters the Jewish leaders, who are more concerned with the law than the miracle itself. They question him about carrying his mat on the Sabbath, illustrating how easily people can become entangled in rules and regulations, missing the heart of what God is doing. What Does It Mean? Spiritual Implications Later, Jesus finds the man again and warns him, "Stop sinning, or something worse may happen to you." While Jesus is concerned about our physical ailments, he is equally focused on our spiritual well-being. The healing at the pool reminds us that true wholeness involves both body and soul. The man's mindset, filled with excuses and a victim mentality, reflects a deeper spiritual condition that Jesus seeks to address. What Does It Mean for Me? Ultimately, the story of the healing at the pool of Bethesda illustrates the necessity of engaging with Jesus and acknowledging our need for healing. It challenges listeners to consider where they might find themselves in the narrative—whether as the invalid, the bystander, or the religious leaders. Each role offers insights into our own spiritual journeys and the ways we may resist or embrace the healing that Jesus offers. God is a gracious God, full of mercy and truth, inviting us to experience life to the fullest through Jesus, our healer. THIS WEEK'S RESOURCES: Help! My Bible is Alive!
