The Healing of the Official's Son

Series: Seven Signs in the Gospel of John

The Healing of the Official's Son

February 26, 2023 | Peter Kozushko

When a royal official begged Jesus to heal his son who was close to death, Jesus responded to him with a rather strong rebuke, saying: "Unless you people see signs and wonders you will never believe." Yet Jesus still granted the man his request, and he and his whole household believed. What is Jesus teaching us through this sign about miracle-working faith?

Series Information

Toward the ending of his book, the Apostle John tells us that Jesus performed a lot of signs that were not recorded, but that he picked these seven "so that you may believe that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name."  (John 21:31)  In this series of sermons, we will look closely at each one of the signs that John chose.  What do they specifically tell us about Jesus?  What do they tell us about life in his name?  Both skeptics and believers can find great wisdom in this Gospel!
