As the Pharisees interrogate the man healed of blindness, their hostility stands in contrast to his transformative encounter with Jesus. Their aggressive questioning doesn’t intimidate him—it emboldens him. With every challenge, his faith grows stronger until he openly identifies as a disciple. In this sermon, we’ll explore what this confrontation reveals about mankind’s resistance to Christ—and what the blind man’s boldness teaches us about faith in the face of opposition and our past.
John 9:13-23
Jesus returns to Jerusalem for a feast and heals a blind man by anointing his eyes with clay made from spit, then sending him to wash in the pool of Siloam. This miracle, done on the Sabbath, stirs the fury of the Pharisees, who interrogate the man and his family. In our sermon, we learn a lot about the responses that people often have to our decision to follow Christ. We also take a look at how we should approach our family when we so deeply desire to minister the gospel to them.
