Healing the Blind and Mute

from St Mark Sermons Hosted by St Mark Coptic Orthodox Church

Fr. Matthias Shehad explores the healing of a demon-possessed man who was blind and mute, as described in Matthew 12, to draw parallels with spiritual blindness and muteness. He identifies four aspects of spiritual blindness: the inability to see God's power in creation, recognize God's love, understand oneself, and perceive the harm within society. Fr. Matthias then discusses four related forms of spiritual muteness: being unable to glorify God, share His love, teach the truth, and grow in virtue. He explains how spiritual blindness limits one’s capacity to live out faith and how healing comes through Christ’s transformative power and the work of the Holy Spirit. This sermon highlights the importance of self-awareness, faith in God's presence, and active spiritual growth for both personal transformation and positive impact on society.
