When the man s friends carried him to the house where jesus was staying they found the house to be packed with people wanting to hear jesus and be healed by him.

How jesus healed a paralyzed man through the roof.

20 when jesus saw their faith he said. The story of how jesus healed a paralyzed man shows two types of miracles. Jesus healed man that was lowered through the roof. Luke 5 18 25 new international version niv.

One could be seen as the paralyzed man was able to get up and walk. There are so many printables available for this lesson so i decided to create this project to use after the lesson and they really enjoyed it. And they were trying to bring him in and to set him down in front of him. Help them realize that it was because everyone could see whether the man could walk versus his sins being forgiven not being seen by others.

19 when they could not find a way to do this because of the crowd they went up on the roof and lowered him on his mat through the tiles into the middle of the crowd right in front of jesus. They dug through it and let down the mat on which the paralyzed man was lying. 18 and some men were carrying on a bed a man who was paralyzed. He saw the man s sinful heart.

Net bible when they were not able to bring him in because of the crowd they removed the roof above jesus. Since they couldn t bring him to jesus because of the crowd they made an opening in the roof over the place where he was. God can always see the heart of a person luke 16 15. The bible says that after digging through the roof the men lowered the mat that the paralyzed man was lying on down to where jesus was.

Point out that jesus healed both the man s physical problem and his heart. Plus the roof wasn t made with large pieces of wood and didn t have shingles but had tiles or plaster that could be lifted or broken through easily to make a hole. It can be used for several different lessons and it can used for any group discussion activity. 18 some men came carrying a paralyzed man on a mat and tried to take him into the house to lay him before jesus.

The man on the mat was not able to walk. But jesus saw a need much greater than his paralyzed legs. 19 but not finding any way to bring him in because of the crowd they went up on the roof and let him down through the tiles with his stretcher into the middle of the crowd in front of jesus. But the first miracle was unseen as jesus said he was granting forgiveness for the man s sins.

This second claim set jesus at odds with the pharisees and constituted a claim that jesus was the son of god. Jesus knew that the man was a sinner like every man woman and child. He had come to jesus to be healed because he was certain that jesus could heal him.
