Sinclair Ferguson, commenting on Mark 2:1-12 (Jesus’ healing of a paralytic who was lowered through a hole in the ceiling by four men):
“Here Mark unveils what lies at the heart of the gospel: men need forgiveness; Jesus gives it. To the degree to which you see your own need of forgiveness is the measure of how clearly you understand the gospel.”
Sinclair Ferguson, Let’s Study Mark (Carlisle, PA: Banner of Truth Trust, 1999), 27.
