    Jesus, Our Healer

    Contributed by Hans Krause on Oct 19, 2018

    Jesus has the power to heal us from every physical and mental disease. But he doesn't always use that power. Often, what we need more is to be healed from our spiritual blindness.

    [This sermon was preached on 19 August 2018, 13th Sunday after Pentecost / 3rd year, ELCF Lectionary] Last Monday I returned to work from my five-week holiday. When I opened my email, there was a pleasant surprise waiting for me. A woman from our congregation wrote me with some very good news. The ...read more

    The Blind Man With 20/20 Vision

    Contributed by John Gaston on Nov 7, 2018
     | 14,930 views

    A blind man had 20-20 vision while those who could see were blind to the spiritual realm. It's possible to have a miracle but not know Jesus. Take that second step!

    THE BLIND MAN WITH 20/20 VISION Jn. 9:1-41 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. A little girl told to her parents what she had learned in Children’s Church about the creation of Man & Woman. 2. “The teacher told us how God made the man first. But he was very lonely and had nobody to talk to. So God put ...read more

    Message 20 from John's gospel exploring the passage where Jesus restored sight to the blind man.

    Alliance Church Pastor David Welch “Sight for the Blind” INTRODUCTION John portrays Jesus as the one who came to give light and life to men. He did not come to condemn but to convert those in darkness. As we said a few weeks back, blindness or darkness comes from two problems. No light source. ...read more

    Seeing Jesus' power over physical darkness that points to a greater power he has over spiritual darkness.

    Turn to John 9:1-7 John=book of signs; 7 to show Jesus was the Messiah, son of God; this is the 6th Jesus has already declared in the previous ch that he is the light & that he has come to penetrate & push back the darkness. Now he chooses a specific event to illustrate his power over darkness in ...read more

    The man born blind will see his life change when he encounters Jesus!

    INTRODUCTION " SLIDE #1 " Have you ever thought that life had dealt you a bad hand? I mean it seems like you can never get ahead, that you have allowed your past to haunt you to this day? " When we feel like life has somehow cheated us, it is so easy to turn away and blame God for what has ...read more

    Are Birth Defects Of God? Series

     | 9,347 views

    This message challenges the doctrine, the belief, that God is responsible for birth defects. It also examines the question "Do children come from God?"

    I have three children. At each of their births, my wife did what mothers tend to do – she held their hands and feet and gently rubbed them. I now know what she was doing. She was counting fingers and toes. And we always thanked God that He blessed us with healthy, normal children. A few years ago ...read more

    Jesus chose you where you are. He walked past you, knowing that what makes you different will be used so that "God might be displayed in [you!]" Obedience to Jesus' directives is where seeing occurs.

    When I look at my life, there seems to be two components that stand out: What people see from me and what people perceive of me. Let me repeat that: What people see from me and what people perceive of me. The unfortunate thing is the “what people see from me” and the “what people perceive of ...read more

    Mud In Your Eye

    Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Jun 19, 2018
     | 6,744 views

    Jesus tells us to walk by faith and not by sight. When we do that we give sight to all those all around us. Trust Jesus to open your eyes to the love of God and the forgiveness that is yours in Jesus. Jesus says wash away the mud from your eyes.

    Mud in your eye John 9:1-21 Have you ever played in the mud? Maybe you made mud pies. Maybe you are one of those people who like tractor pulls or monster truck rallies. Some of you may have had a mud facial. Jesus found a very interesting use for mud one Sunday afternoon. He used it as a ...read more

     | 11,226 views

    Each of us were born with a debilitating condition - spiritual blindness. Regardless of our desire to see, spiritually we were blind to the ways of God. Our only hope was for a miracle. Thankfully, Jesus is the Light of the world.

    The Light of the World John 9: 1-11 As a boy Robert Louis Stevenson was intrigued by the work of the old lamplighter who went about with a ladder and a torch, setting the street lights ablaze for the night. One evening in Edinburgh, Scotland, as young Robert stood watching with childish ...read more

    Imagine for a moment what it would be like never to see a sunset. Imagine for a moment what it would be like to never see the faces of those you love.

    HE SAW HIM John 9:1 – 7 And as Jesus passed by, he saw a man which was blind from his birth. 2 And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did sin, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind? 3 Jesus answered, Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents: but that the works of God ...read more

    We are acquainted with the saying, “There is none so blind as those who will not see.” We will see that there are many types of blindness. Even the disciples were not seeing too clearly.

    "Opening the Eyes of the Blind" is our new sermon series starting today and for the next three weeks. We will explore John chapter 9 and the events surrounding Jesus bringing sight to a man who was born blind. Please, I encourage you to read ahead. Read the whole chapter and meditate on ...read more

    Believing Is Seeing Series

     | 6,979 views

    This is our 29th sermon on a series from the Gospel of John. In this sermon we look at how Jesus healed the blind man, and both the progression of faith, and the progression of apostasy.

    Believing is Seeing (John Part 29) Text: John 9:1-41 There’s an old saying that goes, “Seeing is believing.” But you know sometimes, old sayings are just that… old sayings. The reality is, sometimes, seeing doesn’t equal believing. Sometimes, a person can see something, and still not believe, ...read more

    You have a story to tell

    Spiritual blindness often has ideological roots and rational presuppositions. The Pharisees were so sure of everything—that God did not heal someone on Sundays; that Moses was God’s only spokesman, that anyone born blind had to be a sinner. To illustrate: Two psychiatrists were talking and one ...read more

    The Restoration Of Sight And The Reception Of Salvation

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Mar 9, 2022
     | 1,565 views

    In John 9, we read of the healing and salvation of a poor, blind man who has received not only physical sight, but also spiritual sight to see that Jesus was the Promised One of God. We also witness the deliberate spiritual lack of sight by the religious leaders who rejected the Light of God.

    John Newton (1725-1807) was one of the most blasphemous, vile, unscrupulous, cruel, and hateful men who ever made his living by means of the sea. While he had been reared in a goldy home and had been taught the Scriptures by his mother, he walked away from any type of religious faith and for ...read more
