Blind Man

"And as Jesus passed by, he saw a man which was blind from his birth. And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did sin, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind? Jesus answered, Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents: but that the works of God should be made manifest in him." - John 9:1-3

The works of God were first made manifest in him when he was healed of his blindness (John 9:6-7). The greater work was when the man believed "on the Son of God" (John 9:35-38). Everything Jesus did was geared at bringing God's children back into his presence. This miracle caused faith in Jesus Christ as the Son of God. This faith is the building block and the staring point for all who will come to God.
