“And a certain man was there, which had an infirmity thirty and eight years.”
John 5:5 KJV
Among the many sick people lying there was a man who had been disabled for thirty-eight years. Under the shelter of religion, there are the sick and lame and blind who can’t be healed unless they do the work of stepping into the pool. They are helpless and hopeless so near the Sheep Gate. But Jesus has none of the law’s requirements to put upon us for our healing, only to believe in the One Who is greater than angels. The man had been sick for thirty eight years, the length of time Israel had wandered in the wilderness. Grace and truth came through the Lord Jesus Christ. Grace justifies us freely before God through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus and Truth sets us free to follow after the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus which has made us free from the law of sin and death. Hallelujah!
