Jehovah’s Witness: Jesus Was Only GIVEN the Authority to Forgive

About this sermon

Greg and Amy refute the idea that Luke 4:18–19 marks the moment Jesus received authority to forgive sins. They note that Jesus had already been performing the works described and that the passage says nothing about forgiveness. In contrast, Mark 2 and numerous other verses present Jesus as God himself, possessing inherent authority to forgive sins. #StandtoReason #Apologetics #Christianity #STRask #Worldviews #JesusIsLord #Theology ————— SUBMIT YOUR QUESTION ————— If you'd like to submit your question ahead of time for the Stand to Reason broadcast, or if you'd like to submit a question for the #STRask podcast, fill out our form at https://www.str.org/broadcast. ————— FIND MORE FREE TRAINING ————— Website: https://www.str.org/ Stand to Reason University: https://training.str.org/ Stand to Reason Apps: https://www.str.org/apps ————— CONNECT ————— Twitter: https://twitter.com/STRtweets Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/standtoreason93 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/standtoreason LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/stand-to-reason/ ————— GIVE ————— Support the work of Stand to Reason: https://str.org/donate
