Mark 2:10

Catholic Public Domain Version

But so that you may know that the Son of man has authority on earth to forgive sins," he said to the paralytic:

See the chapter Copy

Then Jesus went into parts of Caesarea Philippi. And he questioned his disciples, saying, "Who do men say that the Son of man is?"

"I say to you: Rise up, take up your stretcher, and go into your house."

Which is easier, to say to the paralytic, 'Your sins are forgiven you,' or to say, 'Rise up, take up your stretcher, and walk?'

It is he whom God has exalted at his right hand as Ruler and Savior, so as to offer repentance and the remission of sins to Israel.
