Tell City Nazarene Church's Biblical Journey
With Pastor Charles Areson
Today's reading is John 5-8
Jesus didn't heal them all.
Yes in some locations especially in Galilee that multitudes brought their sick and Jesus healed them. The question has been asked if he healed everyone then why not today. Yet here in John 5, we see Jesus standing in the middle of a great number of sick people and he heals one. Not everyone not half, ONE.
This passage doesn't answer why Jesus heals some and not others, but it does negate the argument that Jesus acted one way back then and another way today. It shows that Jesus does what he does for reasons we do not always understand. In this he is consistent.
