Jesus Healing The Man Lowered In The Roof

However the direction is not up and the situation is not out of control.

Jesus healing the man lowered in the roof.

When they had broken a space big enough through the roof the four men let the man down through the roof. In this story jesus heals a paralyzed man who is lowered through the roof by his friends so he can see jesus. Ask the child if they can explain why it would be easier for jesus to forgive sins than heal the man. The account of the healing of the paralyzed man in mark 2 1 12 contains a number of lessons for growing christians.

This bible story is based on text from luke 5. Jesús sana a un paralítico. 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. They lowered their friend down to the place where jesus was.

When they couldn t get near jesus they went to the roof and uncovered the roof. Berean literal bible and not being able to come near to him on account of the crowd they removed the roof where he was and having broken it up they let down the pallet on which the paralytic was lying. The man is literally let down through the roof under the careful control of his concerned friends and into a situation controlled by the lord jesus christ. When jesus saw their faith he told the paralyzed man that his sins were forgiven.

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. Point out that jesus healed both the man s physical problem and his heart.
