Tim Keller | February 1, 2015
What Jesus does in Mark 2 is very surprising: it shocks three different groups of people.
In this passage, we have the story of some friends who lower a paralytic through a roof in order to bring him to Jesus. This passage teaches us a lot about who Jesus is. And one of the best ways to understand what it teaches us is to look at the three surprised groups.
