They go to great lengths to see their friend healed, and their faith is rewarded. This story is inspired by Mark 2:1-12, Matthew 9:9-13. Go to BibleinaYear.com and learn the Bible in a Year.
Today's Bible verse is Mark 2:4 from the King James Version.
Episode 183: As two men get ready to bring their paralyzed friend to Jesus, they see that the house is too full to enter. Not to be deterred, they headed for the roof where they began tearing the mud and plaster. As Jesus saw the men lowering their friend down, He looked at the paralyzed man and told him his sins were forgiven. Though some scribes in the crowd were angry at Him for this, He proved His authority to say this by healing the man. As he and his friends walked out of the house, everyone was amazed. After this Jesus went to the sea where He walked into the booth of a tax collector named Matthew.
