Week 13 – The Gospel of John | John 9

Seeing… But Not Seeing

In John 9, Jesus heals a man who was blind from birth—but the miracle goes far beyond restored eyesight. This powerful passage reveals the difference between physical sight and spiritual sight, and challenges us to consider who is truly blind.

As Jesus encounters a man born blind, we see a contrast between those who are aware of their need for God and those who believe they already see clearly. Through conversations with disciples, neighbors, parents, and Pharisees, Jesus exposes spiritual blindness rooted in pride, fear, and self-righteousness—while offering true sight to anyone willing to confess their need.

This message reminds us that Jesus always comes looking, that He is the Light of the World, and that spiritual sight is available to all who humbly acknowledge their blindness and place Him at the center of their lives.
