Mark 2:3-4 Some men came, bringing to (Jesus) a paralyzed man...(they) could not get him to Jesus because of the crowd...they made an opening in the roof...lowered the mat (that the man was on). What risk did the men take?
Dropping the man or falling through the hole themselves.
Mark 2:5, 11 When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralyzed man, "Son your sins are forgiven. "I tell you, get up..." How do we know the risk of lowering the paralyzed man through the hole in the roof brought him closer to Jesus?
His faith grew in Jesus and he could walk now
