Mark 2:1-5
Jesus Forgives a Paralyzed Man
1 A few days later, when Jesus again entered Capernaum, the people heard that he had come home. 2 They gathered in such large numbers that there was no room left, not even outside the door, and he preached the word to them. 3 Some men came, bringing to him a paralyzed man,carried by four of them. 4 Since they could not get him to Jesus because of the crowd, they made an opening in the roof above Jesus by digging through it and then lowered the mat the man was lying on. 5 When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralyzed man, “Son, your sins are forgiven.”
John 3:16
God So LOVES the World
16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
Matthew 18:21-22
Jesus on Forgiving
21 Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, “Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother or sister who sins against me? Up to seven times?”
22 Jesus answered, “I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times.
Jesus is known for forgiving people...But why would He forgive those people who He had never met?...Actually He did know them and had met them Spiritually...
Why should we forgive people?...When we understand Jesus' reason for forgiving others, we should look at it and do the same...
Jesus forgave the people He met and He forgives people because He LOVES them...So the answer to why He forgives people is LOVE...
