John 9:24-33

24So a second time they summoned the man who had been blind and told him, “Give glory to God. We know that this man is a sinner.”

25He answered, “Whether or not he’s a sinner, I don’t know. One thing I do know: I was blind, and now I can see!”

26Then they asked him, “What did he do to you? How did he open your eyes?”

27“I already told you,” he said, “and you didn’t listen. Why do you want to hear it again? You don’t want to become his disciples too, do you?”

28They ridiculed him: “You’re that man’s disciple, but we’re Moses’s disciples.

29We know that God has spoken to Moses. But this man — we don’t know where he’s from.”

30“This is an amazing thing!” the man told them. “You don’t know where he is from, and yet he opened my eyes.

31We know that God doesn’t listen to sinners, but if anyone is God-fearing and does his will, he listens to him.

32Throughout history no one has ever heard of someone opening the eyes of a person born blind.

33If this man were not from God, he wouldn’t be able to do anything.”
