So the man went and washed, and he came back able to see. 8 His neighbors and those who had previously seen him begging asked, 'Isn’t this the man who used to sit and beg?' 9 Some said, 'This is he.' Others said, 'No, he just looks like him.' But he kept saying, 'I am the one.' 10 They asked him, 'Then how were your eyes opened? 11 The man replied, 'The man called Jesus made mud, spread it on my eyes, and told me, ‘Go to Siloam and wash.’ So I went and washed, and then I could see.' 12 They asked him, 'Where is He?' He answered, 'I don’t know.' 13 They brought the man who had been blind to the Pharisees. 14 Now it was a Sabbath day when Jesus made the mud and opened his eyes. 15 So the Pharisees also asked him again how he had received his sight. He replied, 'He put mud on my eyes, and I washed, and now I see.' 16 Some of the Pharisees said, 'This man is not from God, because He does not keep the Sabbath.' But others said, 'How can a sinful man perform such signs?' So there was division among them. 17 Again they asked the blind man, 'What do you say about Him, since He opened your eyes?' He replied, 'He is a prophet.' 18 The Jews refused to believe that the man had been blind and had received his sight until they summoned the man’s parents. 19 They asked them, 'Is this your son, the one you say was born blind? How then does he now see?' 20 His parents replied, 'We know he is our son and that he was born blind.' 21 'But how he can now see or who opened his eyes, we do not know. Ask him. He is of age; he will speak for himself.' 22 His parents said this because they were afraid of the Jews, for the Jewish leaders had already decided that anyone who confessed Jesus as the Christ would be put out of the synagogue. 23 That was why his parents said, 'He is of age; ask him.' 24 A second time, they called for the man who had been blind and told him, 'Give glory to God! We know this man is a sinner.' 25 He answered, 'Whether He is a sinner, I do not know. One thing I do know: I was blind, but now I see!' 26 Then they asked him, 'What did He do to you? How did He open your eyes?' 27 He replied, 'I already told you, and you didn’t listen. Why do you want to hear it again? Do you also want to become His disciples?' 28 They ridiculed him and said, 'You are His disciple, but we are disciples of Moses!' 29 'We know that God spoke to Moses, but as for this man, we do not know where He is from.' 30 The man answered, 'This is remarkable! You do not know where He is from, yet He opened my eyes!' 31 We know that God does not listen to sinners, but if anyone is God-fearing and does His will, He listens to them. 32 Never before in history has it been heard that someone opened the eyes of a man born blind. 33 If this man were not from God, He would not be able to do anything.
  • John 14:21-23 : 21 The one who has my commandments and keeps them is the one who loves me.
