The Blind

Isaiah 29:18; 35:5; 42:6-16; 43:1-28; 59:1-21; Luke 4:17-21; John 6:63

Creation began with the Word of God by the Spirit of God (Genesis 1:1-3; John 1:1-14). "And the Word was made 'flesh.'" All God created was made "flesh" in one sense of the word. Flesh, sarx (GK), also has the meaning of "material" and by extension "body" or as the symbol of what's external.

Why do I care?

All life; the body, the soul, the natural physical world, is spiritual. All things are spiritual. In the Hebrew the word dbar means "word" and also "thing." Jesus said, "It is the spirit that quickens; the flesh profits nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit and they are life."

So what?

The recovery of sight to the blind. That's what. All life is spiritual; some can see, some cannot. Some by choice, others by ignorance. The choice is yours.
