Through cleansing a leper and healing a paralyzed man Jesus demonstrates that He has the authority to heal and forgive people, which is what He came to do. The method He chose for accomplishing His mission is discipleship, which is rooted in God's grace. We learn that discipleship involves becoming aware of our need to depend on God as we love other people.
