Immediately many gathered together, so that there was no longer room to receive them, not even near the door. And He preached the word to them.
Mark 2:2 NKJV
Jesus drew quite a crowd. This crowd was, as usual, very diverse:
The curious - This was probably the largest portion of the crowd. Their mind wasn’t made up but they loved the spectacle. They became an obstacle to those in need.
The critics - In spite of amazing events, they were just looking for something wrong.
The carriers - In spite of obstacles they were determined to bring someone to Jesus.
The chronic - The paralytic could only get his needs met from Jesus.
The committed - The disciples and other learners had been with Him this whole time. This wasn’t a one-time event for them.
All of these follow Jesus today. Which one am I?
