A Hostile Miracle (John 5:1-16)

Stephen Weaver, June 2, 2019
Part of the John series, preached at a Sunday Morning service

This Sunday morning, we continue our series in the gospel of John. We will be looking at chapter 5 verses 1-16. In this passage we have recorded an amazing miracle of a paralyzed man that was immobile for 38 years. But based on the reactions to the miracle it becomes more of a hostile miracle. Jesus comes on the scene, heals the man who doesn’t know who Jesus is, does not ask for healing and does not believe. On top of all this, the “Jews” (Pharisees) don’t even care about the miracle (the man is now walking); just that the man was breaking the Sabbath. Both totally miss the point of Jesus, his ministry and miracles. More on this Sunday morning…
