John 9:22-34

His parents said this because they were afraid of the elders, who had already decided that anyone who said Jesus was the Christ would be avoided. That is why his parents said, “He is old enough. Ask him.” So for the second time, they called the man who had been blind. They said, “You should give God the glory by telling the truth. We know that this man is a sinner.” He answered, “I don’t know if he is a sinner. One thing I do know: I was blind, and now I see.” They asked, “What did he do to you? How did he make you see again?” He answered, “I already told you, and you didn’t listen. Why do you want to hear it again? Do you want to become his followers, too?” Then they insulted him and said, “You are his follower, but we are followers of Moses. We know that God spoke to Moses, but we don’t even know where this man comes from.” The man answered, “This is a very strange thing. You don’t know where he comes from, and yet he opened my eyes. We all know that God does not listen to sinners, but he listens to anyone who worships and obeys him. Nobody has ever heard of anyone giving sight to a man born blind. If this man were not from God, he could do nothing.” They answered, “You were born full of sin! Are you trying to teach us?” And they threw him out.
