Have you ever wondered if Jesus can heal? In John 5, Jesus encounters a man who had been paralyzed for 38 years. Lying by the pool of Bethesda, the man believed in a superstition that the water could heal him. But Jesus ignores the superstition and asks him, “Do you want to be healed?” The man explains how he has no one to help him into the water. Instead of offering help, Jesus simply commands, “Get up, take up your bed, and walk.” And instantly, the man is healed! What happens next is incredible. The Jewish leaders are outraged because Jesus healed on the Sabbath. The healing is proof of Jesus’ divine authority—not just to heal but to forgive. Jesus isn’t just a healer; He is the Son of God who offers forgiveness and new life to all who believe.
