Luke 5:20-24
-
20 And when he saw their faith, he said unto him, Man, thy sins are forgiven thee.
-
21 And the scribes and the Pharisees began to reason, saying, Who is this which speaketh blasphemies? Who can forgive sins, but God alone?
-
22 But when Jesus perceived their thoughts, he answering said unto them, What reason ye in your hearts?
-
23 Whether is easier, to say, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Rise up and walk?
-
24 But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power upon earth to forgive sins, (he said unto the sick of the palsy,) I say unto thee, Arise, and take up thy couch, and go into thine house.
