Saint Athanasius Lutheran Church

Hey, how are you? How's it going? If someone asks you that question, you know better than to actually start telling them! They're just being polite. And if you gave a dinner in Jesus' day, you'd leave the door open so that anybody could come in, but it was really for show. You didn't really want them to come in! Except if you invite Jesus to your dinner. We're not told if this man with dropsy had come into the house or not -- but it seems like he did. Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath, or not? They don't answer, not because they didn't want to answer -- they just want this man to go away.
