Authority to forgive sins

Touch me points

*Jesus has the AUTHORITY to forgive sins vs 9-10. In another word, He is God incarnate.

Mark 2:6-11
[6]Some teachers of the Law who were sitting there thought to themselves,
[7]“How does he dare to talk like this? This is blasphemy! God is the only one who can forgive sins!”
[8]At once Jesus knew what they were thinking, so he said to them, “Why do you think such things?
[9]Is it easier to say to this paralysed man, ‘Your sins are forgiven’, or to say, ‘Get up, pick up your mat, and walk’?
[10]I will prove to you, then, that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins.” So he said to the paralysed man,
[11]“I tell you, get up, pick up your mat, and go home!”
