When Jesus went unto the pool, where there was as many people laying there crippled as there is people probably in this building today, maybe more…He walked in amongst all those people and just picked out one man. He was led of God to do so. He told him, “Will thou be made whole?” He said, “Sir, I have no one to put me in the water.” He said, “Take up your bed and walk.” See, He didn’t have to argue with him, because Christ knew that that man had faith to be healed; and the man picked up his bed and went on. He never healed one more in the city, walked right on out. He took another man and led him out of the city, and standing talking to him, spitting on the ground and made a little, put a little cake and put on his eyes, and told him to go wash in the pool of Siloam. Many thousands laid in His path. He never healed them all. But when the Spirit turned Him aside for somebody, then He had compassion, not compassion for the human heart, because God was speaking through Him to go to that person. Then I seen then that I’ve made something that was wrong. And I was condemned and I was ashamed of myself. And I told you people about it.
