John 9:33

John 9:33

31 Now we know that ^aGod does not hear sinners; but if anyone is a worshiper of God and does His will, He hears him.

32 Since the world began it has been unheard of that anyone opened the eyes of one who was born blind.

33 ^aIf this Man were not from God, He could do nothing.”

34 They answered and said to him, ^a“You were completely born in sins, and are you teaching us?” And they¹ cast him out.

True Vision and True Blindness

35 Jesus heard that they had cast him out; and when He had ^afound him, He said to him, “Do you ^bbelieve in ^cthe Son of God?”

John 9:34 >>

Could do nothing - Could do no such work as this. This reasoning was conclusive. The fact that Jesus could perform miracles like this was full proof that he was commissioned by God - proof that never has been and never can be refuted. One such miracle proves that he was from God. But Jesus gave many similar proofs, and thus put his divine mission beyond the possibility of doubt.
