In Saint John the 5th chapter, perhaps you’re acquainted with it, the Scripture, Jesus passed through this famous pool of Bethesda. He find many crippled people there, blind, halt, lame, waiting for the moving of the water. It was strange that He just ministered to one, but if you’ll notice, He knew where that person was. The Father had showed Him. He healed this one. Perhaps he—he wasn’t crippled. He was just laying on a pallet, but Jesus healed him. And then farther in the chapter, we find about the 19th verse, that He was questioned by the Jews. Perhaps, it would be questionable today why God would pass through a place where all those people were lame and halt and blind, and would not heal them all. But here I’ll quote His Words. He said, “Verily, verily, I say unto you, the Son can do nothing of Himself, but what He sees the Father do: this doeth the Son likewise.”
