Luke 5:22-26

22When Jesus perceived their hostile thoughts, he said to them, “Why are you raising objections within yourselves?

23Which is easier, to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Stand 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 paralyzed man – “I tell you, stand up, take your stretcher and go home.”

25Immediately he stood up before them, picked up the stretcher he had been lying on, and went home, glorifying God.

26Then astonishment seized them all, and they glorified God. They were filled with awe, saying, “We have seen incredible things today.”
