Luke 5:22-24

22But Jesus, 1aware of their reasonings, answered and said to them, “Why are you reasoning in your hearts?

23Which is easier, to say, ‘Your sins have been forgiven you,’ or to say, ‘Get up and walk’?

24But, so that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins,”--He said to the 2paralytic--“I say to you, get up, and pick up your stretcher and go home.”
