John 5:1-18
Jesus did the third miraculous signs to heal an invalid for thirty eight years at the Pool of Bethesda.
This disable man could not do anything, he had hopes, but no one can heal him until he met Jesus.Jesus said to him "Get up! Pick up your mat and walk"
The Jews persecuted Jesus, not only was he breaking the Sabbath, but he was even calling god his own Father, making himself equal with God.
Why?
It was not the general principle of the Sabbath as a special day that he disagreed with (he regularly attended the synagogue) but the petty restriction imposed by the religious authorities, which often worked against God's purpose in giving people a weekly day or rest and worship.
Regulation or authorities sometime need to check the purpose or effect is corespondent to the Lord.
Jesus rescues the hopeless people, be forgotten persons. and Jesus is helper of all people.
How?
Can I love the people who needs our help, and do something for them.
The truth meaning of Sabbath is our heart could rest and do actions to love people.
