Jesus Forgave Sin
Mark 2:5: “When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralytic, ‘Son, your sins are forgiven.’”
While most of the resources in our world are spent on dealing with the effects of sin (e.g. war, illness, death, depression, crime, poverty, etc.) there is still no way for people to have their sins forgiven so that they might be cleansed from their stains. At best, some religions try to teach their adherents that what they can do to work hard at paying God back through such things as good works and reincarnation, yet they still lack any concept of forgiveness. But Jesus forgave sin because He was/is God, and since all sin is ultimately committed against Him, He alone has the power to forgive the sins of sinners (Mars Hill Church, 2010).
