John 9:34-41 – Spiritual Blindness
- “… and the believing is easy”
- Jesus connects again with the man who he had healed.
- The man had been thrown out and Jesus asks him if he believes in the Son of Man. The man is totally open to believe; so much so that he chooses before he knows all the facts.
- The man reminds me of the good soil that Jesus talks about in the parable of the four hearers/sower.
- As a leader, Jesus has impacted this man’s life in such a real way that he made believing easy.
- This is a great challenge for me. As a leader I should be living in a way that makes believing for those who want to see easy and for those who don’t want to see … hard.
- Jesus then teaches the Pharisees a valuable lesson; the main reason we miss God and His move in our lives is not because we don’t know what He looks like but because we have decided in advance what He looks like.
- The blind man first saw the miracle that was Jesus and then saw the miracles of Jesus.
