    Jesus' authority to forgive sins.

    FAITH, FORGIVENESS AND HEALING. Matthew 9:1-8. The place referred to as “His own city” (Matthew 9:1) appears to be Capernaum (cf. Mark 2:1).

    Jesus has power over both disease and death.

    A STORY WITHIN A STORY. Matthew 9:18-26.

    JESUS AND JOHN THE BAPTIST. Matthew 11:2-10. MATTHEW 11:2-3. We do not know for sure why John the Baptist sent two of his disciples to speak with Jesus.
