Reveals Himself (August 2014)
18" x 24" Scripture: John 9:35-41 The Jewish leaders knew the Messiah was coming but because Jesus did not come in the way they had imagined, they discounted and disbelieved that He was indeed the coming King. In this particular passage a statement is made about the purpose of Jesus’ coming, “so that the blind see and the seeing made blind.” This is still true today, many times those who are “religious” fail to see the truth of salvation found in Jesus Christ alone where those who are considered the lowest in society find their eternal hope in The One and Only way to heaven – through coming to know Jesus as their Lord and Savior. As you will have noticed all the paintings in John chapter 9 are painted in similar colors to unify the three paintings and to represent the closed-minded Jewish leaders. |
