Luke 5:20-24

And when he sawe their faith, he sayd vnto him, Man, thy sinnes are forgiuen thee.

Then the Scribes and the Pharises began to reason, saying, Who is this that speaketh blasphemies? who can forgiue sinnes, but God onely?

But when Iesus perceiued their reasoning, he answered, and sayd vnto them, What reason ye in your hearts?

Whether is easier to say, Thy sinnes are forgiuen thee, or to say, Rise and walke?

But that ye may know that that Sonne of man hath authoritie to forgiue sinnes in earth, (he sayd vnto the sicke of the palsie) I say to thee, Arise: take vp thy bed, and goe to thine house.
