The Effect Of The Light

The sermon explores John 9, focusing on the story of Jesus healing a man blind from birth. It highlights the illuminating, exposing, and blinding effects of Jesus as the light of the world, emphasizing that Jesus came for judgment so that the blind might see and the seeing might become blind.
