How Jesus Healed A Paralyzed Man Through The Roof

But the first miracle was unseen as jesus said he was granting forgiveness for the man s sins.

How jesus healed a paralyzed man through the roof. 18 and some men were carrying on a bed a man who was paralyzed. But jesus saw a need much greater than his paralyzed legs. Jesus knew that the man was a sinner like every man woman and child. Luke 5 18 25 new international version niv.

20 when jesus saw their faith he said. He had come to jesus to be healed because he was certain that jesus could heal him. He saw the man s sinful heart. When the man s friends carried him to the house where jesus was staying they found the house to be packed with people wanting to hear jesus and be healed by him.

One could be seen as the paralyzed man was able to get up and walk. God can always see the heart of a person luke 16 15. This second claim set jesus at odds with the pharisees and constituted a claim that jesus was the son of god. Jesus healed man that was lowered through the roof.

Plus the roof wasn t made with large pieces of wood and didn t have shingles but had tiles or plaster that could be lifted or broken through easily to make a hole. It can be used for several different lessons and it can used for any group discussion activity. Net bible when they were not able to bring him in because of the crowd they removed the roof above jesus. 19 but not finding any way to bring him in because of the crowd they went up on the roof and let him down through the tiles with his stretcher into the middle of the crowd in front of jesus.

And they were trying to bring him in and to set him down in front of him. Help them realize that it was because everyone could see whether the man could walk versus his sins being forgiven not being seen by others. The story of how jesus healed a paralyzed man shows two types of miracles. Since they couldn t bring him to jesus because of the crowd they made an opening in the roof over the place where he was.

They dug through it and let down the mat on which the paralyzed man was lying. There are so many printables available for this lesson so i decided to create this project to use after the lesson and they really enjoyed it. 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. The man on the mat was not able to walk.

18 some men came carrying a paralyzed man on a mat and tried to take him into the house to lay him before jesus. A man who could not walk wanted to be healed by jesus. Ask the child if they can explain why it would be easier for jesus to forgive sins than heal the man.
