Text: Luke 5: 17-20

THE POWER OF THE LORD

1. Two significant features

a. The teaching of the Lord Jesus Christ (Luke 5:17).

i. This was refreshingly different.

ii. He taught with obvious authority.

iii. Many were drawn to His teaching.

b. The power of the Lord:

i. The power of God was with the Lord Jesus.

ii. There was power to heal all who came to Him (Luke 5:15).

2. Drawing attention from the religious leaders

a. The Pharisees formed a religious sect.

i. They were traditionalists.

ii. They sought to keep all the religious customs.

b. The teachers of the law:

i. Some of them were called “scribes”.

ii. Some others were called “teachers of the law” (Luke 5:17).

c. They came from every town of Galilee.

i. They wanted to hear the Lord Jesus for themselves.

ii. They wanted to check what the Lord taught.

iii. They saw themselves as protectors of the laws of Moses.

3. The expected response of the Lord Jesus

a. The Lord Jesus saw more than the paralytic lowered from the roof.

b. He saw the faith of the four friends.

i. Their faith caused them to bring the paralytic to the Lord Jesus.

ii. Their faith caused them to do something most unusual.
To lower their friend through the roof top!

4. The Unexpected Response of the Lord

a. He spoke to the paralytic.

b. He did not address the problem of his illness.

c. Instead, He addressed the problem of sin.

“Man, your sins are forgiven you.” Luke 5:20

d. This response was totally unexpected:

i. He had not taken this approach before.

ii. The man and his friends had only hoped the Lord Jesus would heal him.

e. But this was well within the scope of the ministry of the Lord Jesus Christ!
