LESSON TliXT—John 9:1-11, So-SS, (Read entlro cbapter.j GULDEN TEXT-1 am the ’lijht of the ■world.—John 9:5. This, another of the signs which Jesus performed, is recorded only by John. It probably occurred in Octo­ ber, six months before the crucifixion, while Jesus was atteudlng the. Feast of the Tabernacles. There are six other eases of blindness recorded us having been cured. Look them up. I. The Case (vv. 1-4). I t was abso­ lutely hopeless, No human skill could touch it, hut Jesus "passed by,” and that changed everything. What men cannot do Jesus can. Jesus is passing today, and we may expect things quite as wonderful to happen (John li:12). This blind man illustrates the unsaved sinner (I Cor. 2:14). He never had seen. -He was beyond human .help (v, 82). lie had doubtless, given up all hope of seeing. He was .without sym­ pathy, suspected and despised (vv. 2, 84). Poor—he was a beggar. He is also a type of the nation of Israel (Ilev. 3:77). We must not atteiupt to explain all sickness (v. 3). God fre­ quently ..uses It for the advancement of his kingdom (John 11:4). Jesus not only passed by but he “saw.” The feeling of the crowd was that of curi- o-diy and contempt. Ills feeling was that of compassion (vv. 2, 4 and 6). Sickness sometimes manifests God’s sustaining grace (II Cor. 12:8-10). It Is d.mlXiess true that a largo percent­ age of .sickness is the direct result of .-in (John 6:1-1; Mk. 2 :5 ;A cis 12:28), fume, of course, indirectly (Job 23:14- 80J. ' II. The Cure (vv.- 4-11). The word “nu.’si" la verse four is a strong one. The time for us to do our work is ‘‘now." ’This word “must” carries with It the idea of it'divine imperative, and . the reason' for that imperativeness is the approaching "night.” Night is coming fast, when no man can work. Notice the works wo are to do are not' our own, but "the works of him that sent me,” - Compare carefully verses two and four, arid see that Jesus con­ sidered delivering the man from evil far more important than speculating about the origin of his complaint. Too much lime Is" spent in investigation. Let us have more of action,- The .means usee m this cure were clay and spittle. The miracle was performed In plain view of all who might see. The man did not ask Jesus-to help him, but Jesus hud gone where he was (v. 5), Ills words, "Go wash” were a test of the man’s, faitli (XI Kings 5:1Q-14)> ami his part in tho transaction was a testimony that i t ’was ’ Christ who worked the cure. The use Of the material means in th,ts ceremony made the man more willing to go and wash. It gave lilm something to do, and doing Is always an end to faith. Siioum means "sent,” and was a type of Jesus himself (v. 4 ; John 10:30;.Rom. 8:3; Gal. 4:4), If we wish to receive sight for our blliul eyes, we should go to him uud bathe (John 8:12). III. The Controversy (v. 12 to end of chapter). This controversy gave op­ portunity for testimony, ns we have already seen, first of all upon tho part of the man whose testimony was pro­ gressive. At first he merely spoke of the fact. He was not acquainted with Jesus, for he calls lrim “The man called Jesus.” Later on he is moved to call him a "prophet” Ho is a prophet (v. 17), and later still he recognizes him as "The Son of God” (vv. 35-38). This controversy estalK fished beyond question the fact of the?1 cure, It brought out the deity of Christ (v. 33). The man was exoom- mun< ’ated, but for that matter he was already outside because of his physical infirmity, but, best of all, he became truly Christ’s disciple. IV. Comments. This lesson with Its vivid contrasts of belief and unbelief gives us a wonderful opportunity to urge upon pupils a decision to live the Christiun life. Has Christ opened the eyes of our scholars to the love of God, to the awfulness of sin, to the need of a Savior, our divine Leader and Brother? Urge them, in the class and out, to be as outspoken and cour­ ageous for Christ as was this iiian who lmd never before perhaps seen or heard of Jesus, and whose gratitude at once called forth tills wonderful con­ fession. Bring cast out by the rules of the synagogue brought this man Into closer and deeper fellowship and commun­ ion with Jesus. He had believed far enough to obey his bidding, and bad thus been healed. Now he Is brought to' r «great sav­ ing, transforming faith, viz., that JeSus is the Son of God. Do we take advantage of our privi­ lege of confession? Iipfdfco Christ Came there 'were no hospitals. He Is the Inspiration of all charitable institutions, but healing of tho body is of secondary Importaiice; the healing of the soul is primary. “Whereas I *was blind, now I see.” Rtart with what you know—yodr own experience—and he will reveal himself .according to your developing and pro­ gressive needs. Keep Cheerful. Lri us all tfy to do at least one ; good deed each day and keep a cheer- I j ful face, even If tilings do go awry, i j A cheerful face brightens many a > weary sonld and n kind deed or word -j • wins many a heart.
