John 9:1-7

Listen to John 9:1-7

1 As Jesus was walking along, he saw a man who had been born blind.

2 His followers asked him, "Teacher, whose sin caused this man to be born blind -- his own sin or his parents' sin?"

3 Jesus answered, "It is not this man's sin or his parents' sin that made him be blind. This man was born blind so that God's power could be shown in him.

4 While it is daytime, we must continue doing the work of the One who sent me. Night is coming, when no one can work.

5 While I am in the world, I am the light of the world."

6 After Jesus said this, he spit on the ground and made some mud with it and put the mud on the man's eyes.

7 Then he told the man, "Go and wash in the Pool of Siloam." (Siloam means Sent.) So the man went, washed, and came back seeing.

The Work of God On Display

Pastor Jack Morris

In John Chapter 9, we read the powerful story of a man who had been blind from birth. When the disciples asked Jesus who had sinned—this man or his parents—to cause his condition, Jesus replied, “Neither this man nor his parents sinned, but this happened so that the works of God might be displayed in him.” Today, Pastor Jack Morris shares how this moment reveals a greater truth: God can use even our deepest struggles as a platform to show His power and glory. Join us as we learn how God’s purpose can shine through our pain, and how every challenge can become a testimony of His grace.

We can’t just deal with the problem of pain and evil theoretically or academically—that’s a cop-out. On a practical level, we have a spiritual obligation.
