Old Jerry Posted June 19, 2018 Report Share Posted June 19, 2018 We learn that the royal official’s faith was one that believed in Jesus. When he said that his son was healed the official believed him and left. He had faith that Jesus could heal his servant’s son because he had heard about the miracles that Jesus had performed.

Godswriter Posted February 1, 2019 Report Share Posted February 1, 2019 Q2. (John 4:43-50) What do we learn about the royal official’s faith from his actions? Why did he travel 20 miles from Capernaum to Cana? What does this say about his faith? When he departs for home and “takes Jesus at his word,” what does this tell us about his faith? I believe we learn that the royal official had a faith that drove him to go to Cana and see the Lord Jesus in the flesh. He knew and heard about the miracles that Jesus could do with a word. He was hoping for the same thing for his child. He traveled that far out of great faith that drove him to save his son's life. He was also very humble when he did this as well. When he took Jesus at His word and departs for home it speaks of a faith that can not be taken away from him. He believes Jesus is the healer of sicknesses.

newwine50 Posted September 10, 2019 Report Share Posted September 10, 2019 (John 4:43-50) What do we learn about the royal official's faith from his actions? He had faith to travel for four days, leaving his son who was near death at home. He had to have quite a bit faith that Jesus was the answer for his son. ? Why did he travel 20 miles from Capernaum to Cana? Thjat is where Jesus was. What does this say about his faith? He not only had to travel there. He also had travel back. If Jesus wasn't there or didn't heal his son, he would have lost four days to get other help for his son. He may have tried everythnig else and Jesus was the last hope. IWhen he departs for home and "takes Jesus at his word," what does this tell us about his faith? I don't think he had much choice but to take Jesus at His Word.

Jonathan Edwards Posted August 17, 2021 Report Share Posted August 17, 2021 The father's heart was full of sorrow and concern for his child. He had faith enough to believe on Christ's power to save his son. His faith was based on the miracles that occurred in Jerusalem and in Cana. The father believed in Christ's power to heal his son 25 miles away in Capernaum. Christ strengthened the faith of the father by shifting his faith from the testimonies of others to Jesus Christ himself. He believed wholeheartedly in Christ Jesus; he did not nourish doubt in his heart. He fully rested in Christ's words and complete trust in Christ himself as the Divine Physician.

Daniel R Posted December 27, 2021 Report Share Posted December 27, 2021 1. What do we learn about the royal official's faith from his actions? We learn that the royal official initially had "miracle-faith," but as the man persistently begged Jesus to come with him and heal his son, we see that his faith changed to real, genuine faith, which is shown when he "takes Jesus at His Word" and walks back to Capernaum, having complete faith in Jesus' Words. 2. Why did he travel 20 miles from Capernaum to Cana? He traveled 20 miles from Capernaum to Cana to meet and beg Jesus to come and heal his son who was near the point of death. 3. What does this say about his faith? The royal official's actions say that he had faith in Jesus to perform miracles but also that his faith was only focused and interested in miracles, wonders, and works, not Jesus! 4. When he departs for home and "takes Jesus at His Word," what does this tell us about his faith? When the man goes home, "taking Jesus at His word," it shows us that his faith changed into real, genuine faith. He had seen no wonders, miracles, or works done, but he solely believed Jesus and had faith that his son was now healed and made well; he had faith in Jesus' Words! THANK YOU JESUSSSSSSS!!!!!!!

Irmela Posted April 30, 2022 Report Share Posted April 30, 2022 2. (John 4:43-50) What do we learn about the royal official's faith from his actions? He believed that Jesus could heal his son. Why did he travel 20 miles from Capernaum to Cana? He heard that Jesus had come back to Galilee and that He was in Cana. To have Jesus come to his son, he went toJesus to place his plea before Him and beg Him to come and heal his son. He believed that Jesus could perform that miracle. What does this say about his faith? His faith was as yet in the fact that Jesus could perform miracles. As one aptly answered, his faith at this point was in the miracle, he hoped would take place. When he departs for home and "takes Jesus at his word," what does this tell us about his faith? When Jesus spoke the word that the child was healed and the royal official turned around to go home, no longer was the faith in the miracle but in the miracle worker, Jesus Christ. The official's faith had become established in believing the Word spoken, not just "seeing is believing". He in fact believed without seeing. - faith indeed - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
