Interesting Chain of Events

Jesus said to him, "Get up, take up your bed, and walk."..... afterward Jesus found him in the temple and said to him, "See, you are well! Sin no more, that nothing worse may happen to you.". John 5:8,14

After the disabled man from Jerusalem was healed near the pool of Bethesda he was later found at the temple. However, too many times in todays society when we experience the ultimate healing, that our soul has been saved from everlasting torment in Hell, Christ and the church are no longer important.

Isn't it reasonable that anyone who is truly thankful that God has saved them, would spend time worshipping Him with other believers?

Another interesting thing is this, when Jesus saw him later on He said to the man, "See, you are well! Sin no more, that nothing worse may happen to you." That didn't sound very caring, after all this poor man had been disabled for 38 years, where is the compassion?

Gods love is a perfecting love not a pampering love. He wants the very best for us.
