Song of the Ages: Amazing Grace

John 9/Various Other Texts

There are lots of different responses to Jesus during his last week…

• The people celebrated his arrival.
• The Romans feared an uprising.
• His disciples argued over who would be the greatest.
• Judas began plotting, to force Jesus to rise up.
• The Religious leaders pride caused them to be jealous.

In this healing of the blind man, there were more reactions to Jesus:

• The man’s neighbors were skeptical.
• The Pharisees were disbelieving.
• His parents believed but were afraid.
• But the man…showed a growing faith!

Lessons we learn from the blind man:

• Instead of asking “why did this happen to me?” or “what did I do wrong?” ask God to give you strength and a clear perspective.
• You don’t need to know all the answers…you just have to be able to tell people how Jesus changed your life.
• To know Jesus is to keep walking with Him.

Main Point:  What is your response to His Amazing Grace?
