Friday (January 17): We never saw anything like this! Scripture: Mark 2:1-12 1 And when he returned to Caperna-um after some days, it was reported that he was at home. 2 And many were gathered together, so that there was no longer room for them, not even about the door; and he was preaching the word to them. 3 And they came, bringing to him a paralytic carried by four men. 4 And when they could not get near him because of the crowd, they removed the roof above him; and when they had made an opening, they let down the pallet on which the paralytic lay. 5 And when Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralytic, My son, your sins are forgiven. 6 Now some of the scribes were sitting there, questioning in their hearts, 7 Why does this man speak thus? It is blasphemy! Who can forgive sins but God alone? 8 And immediately Jesus, perceiving in his spirit that they thus questioned within themselves, said to them, Why do you question thus in your hearts? 9 Which is easier, to say to the paralytic, `Your sins are forgiven, or to say, `Rise, take up your pallet and walk? 10 But that you may know that the Son of man has authority on earth to forgive sins -- he said to the paralytic -- 11 I say to you, rise, take up your pallet and go home. 12 And he rose, and immediately took up the pallet and went out before them all; so that they were all amazed and glorified God, saying, We never saw anything like this!
