The Blind See (John 9)

So few have received Jesus as Israel's Messiah, the Christ. All Jesus has been doing is healing, and saying wonderful truths of God. Yet, not many come to believe in Him. But, in today's sermon, we see a man whom Jesus healed, though he was born blind, he now can see. This is the power of God through Christ Jesus. And in this particular miracle, we will discover from the Old Testament that it is a miracle that points to who Jesus is - not just being a human but also being God Himself who has come in human form. The man not only receives his sight but the eyes of his heart become open and he believes upon Jesus. Sadly, this will cost him, possibly his family, and he gets kicked out of the synagogue, and even looked down on by the people, especially the Pharisees. But, he gives up all in order to stand with Christ. And so today we will see a remarkable example of a man who comes to know and understand who Jesus is for who He truly reveals Himself to be.
