Mark 2:1-17
Son your sins are forgiven
Summary: Jesus won’t be taken on our terms. He doesn’t act in ways that are safe or that we expect. Jesus sees the needs of his people and acts in ways that are shocking but are best for those people. Jesus isn’t tame. This Sunday we are going to hear about a miracle that Jesus did that was totally unexpected, he forgives and then heals. Jesus acts beyond all expectations!

Memory Verse: 2:17b sounds great
Discussion Questions:
Why does Jesus forgive the paralytic’s sins first and then heal his body? How did this confront the expectations of the people gathered?
The text says that Jesus saw their faith, and then that Jesus perceived the scribes spirits. Why does Mark draw this contrast between these two groups?
How does this passage change the way you look at those who suffer around you? How does it move you toward evangelism?
