1 | "their" faith | Mark | rdarden1 | 205500 | ||
Mark 2 When talking about "their" faith was Jesus referring only to the 4 who were lowering the paralytic or did he include the paralytic in the group? | ||||||
2 | "their" faith | Mark | Tamara Brewington | 205501 | ||
Dear rgarden1, We can't read into the text what is not there, it does not say if it ws just his friends or him too. But I would tend to think that the man did have faith too because how else could Jesus forgive the man's sins unless he believed in Jesus and repented? Hope this helped, God Bless, Tamara |

3 | "their" faith | Mark | rdarden1 | 205502 | ||
Thank you, this is also what I believe based on that premis. Yet, I have heard so many ministers preach that the faith of the friends is what Jesus referred to as a way of saying we need to hold each other up, be right and left hands for each other. In explaining this point they will say the paralytic had low self esteem and was dragged along by his friends faith. | ||||||
