A minute in God's word will change your life. Take a minute to read the passage below. Then, ask yourself the questions at the bottom of the post.
In John 9, Jesus healed a blind man on the Sabbath. The Pharisees got wind of it and started interegating the blind man and his family. They kept asking the same questions over and over trying to find out who did this. The people were afraid of the Pharisees so they gave generic answers trying to get out of the whole ordeal. The blind man just kept repeating the same story and finally the Pharisees threw him and his family out of the synagogue. Jesus heard about is and when and found the man. The rest of the story is below.
When Jesus heard what had happened, he found the man and asked, “Do you believe in the Son of Man?” The man answered, “Who is he, sir? I want to believe in him.” “You have seen him,” Jesus said, “and he is speaking to you! Yes, Lord, I believe!” the man said. And he worshiped Jesus. Then Jesus told him, “I entered this world to render judgment—to give sight to the blind and to show those who think they see that they are blind.” John 9:36-39 (NLT)
Are there things in your life that are sacred?
If Jesus showed up and performed a miracle that was contrary to what you thought was sacred, would you question if it was God?
How do you treat people that believe different things than you?
Is it possible that we are the ones who think we can see when in fact we are blind?
