Matthew 9:1-6

Jesus Heals a Paralytic

1And getting into a boat he crossed over and came to ahis own city. 2 bAnd behold, some people brought to him a paralytic, lying on a bed. And when Jesus csaw their faith, he said to the paralytic, d“Take heart, my son; eyour sins are forgiven.” 3And behold, some of the scribes said to themselves, fThis man is blaspheming.” 4But Jesus, gknowing
Some manuscripts perceiving
their thoughts, said, Why do you think evil in your hearts?
5For which is easier, to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Rise and walk’? 6But that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins—he then said to the paralyticRise, pick up your bed and go home.”

Acts 18:11

11And he stayed a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.
