There is a famous legend about settling the matter of God’s existence that concerns a man shot with a poisoned arrow. Before the man can allow the arrow to be withdrawn and the wound treated, he insists upon knowing who shot him, what sort of poison was in the arrow, and what kind of medicine would be administered.
The man died before the questions were answered.
Some questions can wait to be answered.
In our gospel reading this Sunday, Jesus asks a man who had been an invalid for 38 years, “Do you want to be healed?” The question seems absurd, until we see what Jesus has in store for him. Join us this Sunday at FaithPoint as we learn about Jesus’ encounter with a man who has been an invalid for 38 years.
Because of Jesus,
