Life’S Sight— The Need Of The Blind In Religion
LIFE'S SIGHT— THE NEED OF THE BLIND
IN RELIGION
The nine cases in the Gospel of John are divided into two groups. The first six cases signify how the Lord as our life can deal with positive things, while the last three cases signify how the Lord as our life can deal with negative things. Let us review them. The first six cases reveal that the Lord as life is for regenerat ing, satisfying, healing, enlivening, feeding, and quenching. These six signs compose one group because they deal with the positive aspects of His life. The last three cases deal with the neg ative matters of sin, blindness, and death. Sin causes blindness and results in death. There fore, these three—sin, blindness, and death—are grouped together showing how the Lord is our life in dealing with the negative things. In the first six cases the Lord brings us to something positive, but in the last three cases the Lord de livers us from something negative because He delivers us from sin, blindness, and death.
