Man Born Blind (Part 2)

The Life and Teachings of ChristSteve Gregg
In this discourse, Steve Gregg reflects on the story of the Man Born Blind in John chapter 5. Despite the multitude of sick people that gathered at the Pool of Bethesda to be healed, Jesus chose to heal this particular man as an act of God. The Pharisees questioned the man's former blindness, but upon his insistence that Jesus had healed him, they began to question Jesus' divine nature. Gregg emphasizes the importance of recognizing the truth in the light, as those who reject it remain in blindness.
