Gospel Daily with Josh Weidmann Christ Uses Our Healing or Waiting to Call Us to Greater Faith in Him, Part 2Series: Seeing the Light Scripture: John 9:1-7 Episode: 494 Scripture Summary: In John 9:1–7, Jesus encounters a man born blind, and His disciples ask whether the man's blindness was caused by his own sin or his parents' sin. Jesus replies that it was not due to sin, but so that the works of God might be displayed in him. He then declares, "I am the light of the world," and proceeds to heal the man in a unique way—by spitting on the ground, making mud, and applying it to the man's eyes. Jesus tells him to wash in the Pool of Siloam, and the man obeys—receiving his sight for the first time. Key themes include: God's purpose in suffering, Jesus as the light of the world, healing through faith and obedience, and the display of God's power in unexpected ways.
