Day 305 of the podcast, reading John 9-10 NET, read along at:
https://netbible.org/bible/John+9-10/
This is day 305 of our journey.
John chapter 9 is a great account of Jesus healing a man who was born blind. The healing happened on the Sabbath again, so the religious leaders confront the man and question him repeatedly about the healing and about Jesus. The man doesn't know all the details, but he takes a strong stand against the leaders for their lack of faith in the man who healed him. In the end, the leaders throw the healed man out of the synagogue. In chapter 10, Jesus speaks plainly about who he is. He is the Good Shepherd and his people recognize his voice. He is also the Son of God. This claim has the Jewish leaders ready to stone him for blasphemy, but they are unable to lay a hand on him. Jesus points to the deeds he has been doing as the evidence for his standing and position before God.
Join me in John 9-10 and allow your blinders to be removed so you can rejoice in the Son of God!
