Matthew 9:6

Jesus Heals a Paralytic

5Which is easier: to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Get up and walk?’6But so that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins...” Then He said to the paralytic, “Get up, pick up your mat, and go home.”7And the man got up and went home.
