For which is easier, to say, 'Your sins are forgiven,' or to say, 'Rise and walk'? But that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins" -then said to the paralytic - "Rise, pick up your bed and go home." ~ Matthew 9:5-6
It is certainly easier to claim the power to pronounce absolution from sin than to demonstrate the power to heal. Christ actually proved His power to forgive by instantly healing the man of his paralysis. If He could actually do the apparently harder, He could also do what seemed easier. The authentic forgiving of sins was in reality the more difficult task, however, because it ultimately required Him to sacrifice His life.
