Bible Question: Mmm, not really an answer to the question, since the way the scripture states it, is that Jesus can only do what He sees the Father do, therefore implies Jesus has seen the Father do healing elsewhere. Since if it where as you suggest, maybe the scripture would read more like, I can only do what the Father can do, rather than the implied, that Jesus has seen the father already at work. If we take your view of Jesus and God been the same (which i agree they are) then Jesus would already have needed at have healed someone to repeat what He-God had done, but the healing of the lame is the fist account in Jesus time, unless we mean of course the healings from the Old Testemant?? |
Bible Answer: The point is that they are unified in what is being done. He is consistent with the will of the Father. The healings were for us to see the evidence that He was who He said He was and is; the Messiah. |
