WEEKLY SUNDAY BCHOO LLESKON What a Blind Man Knew Told in This Bible Story

By WILLIAM E. GILROY, D. D. Editor in-Ghief of The Congregatinnalist wi i S Jesus passed by, he saw a I A man which was blind from I*** 1 ! his birth.” That is the beginning of this most interesting story of which we have iho outcome in our lesson. The disciples began to speculate. They had the notion, that some people still have, thr.t physical Infirmity and misfortune are sure marks of divine displeasure, and the results of somebody’s sin. So they asked Jesus. “Master, who did sin, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?” Blindness does sometimes come as a result of human sin. It is one of the strangt:, tragic, awful facts of life, as any physician will testify, that blindness at birth may come from the foul sin of parents. But we live in a world of various and mysterious experiences and causes, in which hasty and reedy made philosophies, especially when they are not touched by sympathy and love, may do great injustice to our fellowmen. What a strange notion that the man himself could have sinned before birth, that he should be born blirdi Did the disciples think that possibly the man had had a prior state of existence? Or was it the idea. suggested elsewhere (Gen. 25:22-2*l Luke 1:41), that an unhorn babe had intelligence and responsibility? Jesus, at any rate, was very positive that neither the man nor his parents had sinned. The man’s blindness was that the works of God might ho ma’e manifest in him. What did Jesus mean? Perhaps He had reference to the miracle that He was going to perform in restoring the man’s sight. Perhaps He meant that In the peculiar circumstances of every man’s Jfe and condition the works of God may be made manifest. But here the action was swift and certain. Jesus anointed the man's eves, told him to go wash in Slloani, and "he welshed and came seeing.”

Then the neighbors and the gossips began to buzz. Some said that a miracle had l>een performed, others were skeptical. Apparently the blind beggar was actually seeing. but was this the same man? "Some said. This is he; others said. Ho is like him.” But the blind man bad particular reason for knowing, and he said, “I aw he.” The blind man's assurance had the same unwavering quality when the ecclesiastical bigots got hold of him and tried to set their theories over against the facts. So the Pharisees reminded he man that he had been restored to sight on the Sabbath, that the man who had given him sight was a sinner, etc. But the blind man's testimony rings down through the ages: “Whether he be a sinner or no. I know not: one thing I know, that, whereas I was blind, now I see.”

Tt Is experience that Is the great ! anchorage of religion. To know I what God has done for us Is far I more important than to .stand ap j proved in our doctrines arid theories, j Our theories may be wrong, but | Christ's salvation is a fact I Two kinds of blindness are before jus in this lesson—-the physio! blindness of the lr - gar and the spiritual blindness of tie' Pharisees, F-w of i us are in danger of the former, but ■ till of us are in danger of the latter. May we not then make the prayer, i Lord, open Thou mine eves; And alongside this great “I know.” of the blind man brought to eight, may we not put the great certalny i with which John describes the expe- | rienee which Christ will give to ev- ! cry man: "We know that we have passed from death unto Oise, localise we love the brethren.” To see with eyes of love means to he free fmm spiritual blindness.
