Jesus heals the man born blind Teaching on spiritual blindness The Shepherd and his flock The Unbelief of the Jews
Introduction to John's gospel by Eugene H Peterson taken from "The Message"
In deliberate parallel to the opening words of Genesis, John presents God as speaking salvation into existence. This time God's word takes on human form and enters history in the person of Jesus. Jesus speaks the word and it happens: forgiveness and judgement, healing and illumination, mercy and grace, joy and love, freedom and resurrection. Everything broken and fallen, sinful and diseased, called into salvation by God's spoken word.
