Crippled Man at Bethesda

Speaker:

Crippled Man

When the disciples were with Jesus they were notoriously obtuse to the reality of Who was with them, and what He was teaching by His ministry. But seeing with new eyes after the fact, the disciple John records for us many important moments when Jesus put Himself on display. Through living parables He taught how near at hand our complete healing always is. The crippled man lay for 38 years, unable to save himself, until Jesus picked him out of a crowd and asked the simple penetrating question, “Do you want to get well?” – And from that moment on his life would never be the same.
