JOHN 9 22-34

 🍃🕊️ 03/22 - GospeL Verses 🕊️🍃

                 (paraphrased)

22 - The man born blind’s parents said this because they feared the leaders, for they had already agreed, if anyone should confess Jesus to be the Christ, they were to be put out of the synagogue. 23 That’s why his parents said, “He’s of age, ask him.”

     24 So for the second time they called the man who had been blind and said to him, “Give glory to God. We know this man is a sinner.” 25 But he answered, “Whether he’s a sinner I don’t know. One thing I do know. Though I was blind, now I can see.” 26 They asked him again, “What did he do to you? How did he open your eyes?” 27 He answered, “I told you already. Why do you want to hear it again? Do you also want to become his disciples?” 28 “You are his disciple!” they said. “But we are disciples of Moses! 29 We know God spoke to Moses, but as for this man, we don’t know where, he, comes from.”

     30 The man answered, “This is an amazing thing, you don’t know where he comes from, and yet he opened my eyes. 31 We know God doesn’t listen to sinners. But if anyone is a worshiper of God and does his will, God listens to them. 32 Never since the world began, has it been heard that someone has opened the eyes of a man born blind. 33 If this man were not from God, he couldn’t do it.”34 They answered him, “You were born in utter sin, and would you teach us!” And they threw him out of the synagogue.
