taught his disciples in a house, an unending stream of people gathered him to listen to his teaching, so that nobody could longer set their feet there. 

Then, four men tried to push around the crowd to get in the house, carrying a barrack with them. They shouted,

"Please give the way for us. Let us go to Jesus!" 

But, people were too crowded for them to get in the door." 



So, they went up the roof and laid the barrack on it. There was a sick man lying down in it. Four men were his friends. They believed that Jesus would certainly heal the sick man. 

Four men began to tear the roof. Those who were listening to Jesus's teaching looked up at the ceiling where there were odd noises. Suddenly, the barrack on which the sick man was put began to go down, as dust storms and crumbles fell. 



Jesus saw the faith that the men had, and said that he would forgive all the sins that the sick man had committed. Shortly after Jesus said, the sick man got up, and walked out, carrying the barrack. On their way to home, the sick and his four friends said. 

"Sing the songs for God! He is really the son of God." 

(Matthew 9:1-8, Mark 2:1-12, Luke 5:17-26)
