Sight for the BlindA SERMON BASED ON John 9:1-7,13-17,34-39

Few of us struggle with full blown physical blindness. Many more of us struggle with spiritual blindness. Christ puts simple truths in front of us and we avert our eyes, slam them shut, or gouge them out so that we don’t have to witness them. That’s the sinful nature talking. But in our reading for this Sunday, Jesus proves that he doesn’t just place truths in front of us. He goes the extra mile of opening our eyes and causing us to understand through his Word.
