The God of Wholeness | Elder William Ward III | September 28, 2025 Join us as we explore John 5, where Jesus heals a man who had been paralyzed for 38 years. Jesus sees you, just like He saw the man by the pool of Bethesda. You are not forgotten. Jesus asked the man: “Will you be made whole?” challenging him and us to receive wholeness through faith. Wholeness goes beyond healing—it's about being restored, complete, and aligned with God’s purpose. Many are “waiting for the water to be stirred,” just like the man, but Jesus is already present, ready to heal without delay, you just have to believe!
Sermon Title: The God of Wholeness
Speaker: Elder William Ward III
Scripture Reference: John 5: 1-9
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 folk, 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 troubled the water: whosoever then first after the troubling of the water stepped in was made whole of whatsoever disease he had.
5 And a certain man was there, which had an infirmity thirty and eight years.
6 When Jesus saw him lie, and knew that he had been now a long time in that case, he saith unto him, Wilt thou be made whole?
7 The impotent man answered him, Sir, I have no man, when the water is troubled, to put me into the pool: but while I am coming, another steppeth down before me.
8 Jesus saith unto him, Rise, take up thy bed, and walk.
9 And immediately the man was made whole, and took up his bed, and walked: and on the same day was the sabbath.
