Spiritually Blind? Open Your Eyes To GODSpiritually Blind? Open Your Eyes To GOD
Hi guys,
sorry im a bit late, your probably all sleeping lol
i decided to continue reading on from one of the paragraphs from Johns HEALING sheet
3 John 9:1-7
John 9:35-41:
Spiritual Blindness
35Jesus heard that they (The Pharisees) had thrown him out, and when he found him, he said, “Do you believe in the Son of Man?”
36“Who is he, sir?” the man asked. “Tell me so that I may believe in him.”
37Jesus said, “You have now seen him; in fact, he is the one speaking with you.”
38Then the man said, “Lord, I believe,” and he worshiped him.
39Jesus said, “For judgment I have come into this world, so that the blind will see and those who see will become blind.”
40Some Pharisees who were with him heard him say this and asked, “What? Are we blind too?”
41Jesus said, “If you were blind, you would not be guilty of sin; but now that you claim you can see, your guilt remains.
AMEN!
Now, baring in mind this is just after Jesus had healed this man, he was willing to believe every word that Jesus spoke to him & he recieved his faith in Jesus.
Reading on it is possible to believe that it was much easier for this man to recieve faith in Jesus after he had just healed him in the flesh, so how much harder is it for those who know little of Jesus or nothing at all.
39Jesus said “I came to this world to judge, so that the blind should see & those who see should become blind.”
Im not certain of this, but my view of this verse is that Jesus is saying that those who are blind who have not seen or do not know the glory of God are not guilty as they have not been able to get to know God, but those who are not blind & have the eyes to see Gods work being done but still do not believe are maybe guilty of ignoring God, even though it is always easier to believe by seeing, i believe God is saying that those who are blind have a better chance of recieving him by pure FAITH.
Comment Any Thoughts You Have
God Bless!
