Luke 5:12-26

This sermon explores the healing of a man with leprosy and a paralyzed man, emphasizing Jesus’ identity as a different kind of King who moves toward outcasts. Pastor Sam Beh highlights the "contagious purity" of Jesus, showing that while touching a leper would make anyone else unclean, Jesus’ touch makes the unclean whole. The message also addresses the "faith of advocates," noting how the friends of the paralyzed man persevered through obstacles to bring him before Christ. Ultimately, the healings serve to demonstrate Jesus' supreme authority to forgive sins—a deeper and more urgent need than physical restoration.
