John Chapter 5 : 1-10 - World English Bible [WEB]

  • World English Bible [WEB]
American Standard Version [ASV] King James Version [KJV] Webster's Bible [WB] World English Bible [WEB]
  • 1 After these things, there was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
  • 2 Now in Jerusalem by the sheep gate, there is a pool, which is called in Hebrew, "Bethesda," having five porches.
  • 3 In these lay a great multitude of those who were sick, blind, lame, or paralyzed, waiting for the moving of the water;
  • 4 for an angel went down at certain times into the pool, and stirred up the water. Whoever stepped in first after the stirring of the water was made whole of whatever disease he had.
  • 5 A certain man was there, who had been sick for thirty-eight years.
  • 6 When Jesus saw him lying there, and knew that he had been sick for a long time, he asked him, "Do you want to be made well?"
  • 7 The sick man answered him, "Sir, I have no one to put me into the pool when the water is stirred up, but while I'm coming, another steps down before me."
  • 8 Jesus said to him, "Arise, take up your mat, and walk."
  • 9 Immediately, the man was made well, and took up his mat and walked. Now it was the Sabbath on that day.
  • 10 So the Jews said to him who was cured, "It is the Sabbath. It is not lawful for you to carry the mat."

  • 1 After this there was a feast of the Jews: and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
  • 2 Now there is at Jerusalem by the sheep market a pool, which is called in the Hebrew tongue, Bethesda, having five porches.
  • 3 In these lay a great multitude of impotent persons, of blind, halt, withered, waiting for the moving of the water.
  • 4 For an angel went down at a certain season into the pool, and agitated the water: whoever then first after the stirring of the water stepped in, was cured of whatever disease he had.
  • 5 And a certain man was there, who had an infirmity thirty and eight years.
  • 6 When Jesus saw him lying, and knew that he had been now a long time in that case, he saith to him, Wilt thou be healed?
  • 7 The impotent man answered him, Sir, I have no man, when the water is agitated, to put me into the pool: but while I am coming, another steppeth down before me.
  • 8 Jesus saith to him, Rise, take up thy bed, and walk.
  • 9 And immediately the man was healed, and took up his bed, and walked: and on the same day was the sabbath.
  • 10 The Jews therefore said to him that was cured, it is the sabbath; it is not lawful for thee to carry thy bed.

What is the Sinner's Prayer for Salvation?

The sinners prayer is a common Christian term for a prayer that is said when someone wants to repent of their sin, ask God for forgiveness, and verbally state their belief in the life, death, and saving resurrection of Jesus Christ.

"For, if with your lips you acknowledge the truth of the message that JESUS IS LORD, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For with their hearts people believe and so attain to righteousness, while with their lips they make their Profession of faith and so find salvation." Romans 10:9-10

Christ's death on the cross paid in full the debt of our sin. Action must be taken to take hold of the gift.

Dear God, I know that I am a sinner and there is nothing that I can do to save myself. I confess my complete helplessness to forgive my own sin or to work my way to heaven through any good works. At this moment I trust Christ alone and receive by faith all Grace purchased by Jesus as the One who bore my sin when He died on the cross. I believe that He did all that will ever be necessary for me to stand in your holy presence. I thank you that Christ was raised from the dead as a guarantee of my own resurrection. As best as I can, I now transfer my trust to Him and by my faith take hold of His grace and love for me. I am grateful that He has promised to receive me despite my many sins and failures. Thank you for your word that will guide me as to how I should live my remaining days. Please grant me the wisdom to discern correctly and motivation to grow my faith, obedience, understanding, appreciation, and love for you. Thank you for your Grace and mercy that I do not deserve. Thank you that my salvation is not based on my level of performance in my short life but in my receiving what your victory on the cross did pay for. Thank you that I can receive by my faith alone, your glorious gift of salvation. Thank you for hearing this prayer and for saving me. In Jesus’ Name. Amen.
