Who Can Forgive Sins?

We had a number of technical issues this week, so the message did not get recorded.  Pastor Gerry spoke on Mark 2:1-12.  If you read that text you will see that the Pharisees came to observe, but the friends came with faith to have their paralyzed friend healed.  Jesus demonstrates to the Pharisees that he has the power of God on earth and so they walk away with questions answered.  But the paralytic and his friends walk away (literally) with so much more - they walk away with their burden of guilt lifted.  As we approach Jesus with faith, he lifts our burdens of guilt also.  Jesus is saying to you today "Your sins ARE forgiven!!"
