Matthew 9

Published on: 1st September, 2025

What is the significance of Jesus forgiving the paralyzed man's sins before He healed the man's affliction? Did Jesus ever say that He was God? Why is Jesus dismissive of the scribes and Pharisees? Who is Matthew and why does Jesus call Him to be His disciple? What is the purpose of a church if it doesn't offer healing for the spiritually sick? How do we become healthy by going to church? What does an unhealthy church look like? Why were tax collectors hated by the Jews? Are Christians required to fast? Why didn't Jesus' disciples fast if it's something good to do? How do the Jewish leader and the Roman centurion contrast one another in how they approach Jesus for His help in healing others? Why is the sick woman who touches Jesus' garment showing faith in how she seeks healing? How does Jesus show His mastery over creation and death? How were the people to refer to Jesus? What does it mean for Him to be the Son of David? How can Jesus exorcise demons from people? What does it mean for the laborers to be few in the midst of a large harvest? Does this only talk about evangelism or is there more?
