I Once Was Blind But Now I See

In this sermon by Pastor Carolyn, the focus is on the story of the blind man from the scripture passage who encounters Jesus and receives his sight. The sermon explores the significance of the event, emphasizing how Jesus noticed the man's suffering despite societal indifference. The Pharisees' reaction to the healing, focusing on Sabbath rules rather than the miracle itself, highlights their spiritual blindness. The sermon then transitions to a modern-day testimonial of a Muslim woman's encounter with Jesus, which transforms her hatred into love. Her story parallels the blind man's experience, illustrating the power of Jesus to heal spiritual blindness and change lives. Pastor Carolyn reflects on the deeper meaning of sight, drawing from the example of Fanny Crosby, a blind hymn writer who found spiritual insight despite her physical blindness. The sermon concludes with the assertion that spiritual sight is more profound than physical sight, and encountering Jesus can transform one's life, enabling them to see the world with new eyes.
