The document discusses the biblical theme of spiritual blindness, referencing John 9:39-41, where Jesus highlights the inability of the Pharisees to recognize the truth despite claiming they see. It illustrates four ways individuals can be blind: denying the truth, failing to grow, failing to love, and trusting in riches. The narrative emphasizes the importance of self-evaluation in recognizing one's own spiritual blindness in relation to Christ's teachings.

Synopsis: Jesus, the light of the world, healed a blind man and demonstrated through that sign that He is
the Christ. The Pharisees stubbornly refused to understand this truth. Their confident assertion that they
see demonstrated their blindness, and provides us the opportunity to evaluate our own ability to see the
light. There are four ways in which we can be blind: 1) Denying the Truth; 2) Failing to Grow; 3) Failing to
Love; and 4)Trusting in Riches.
