1. John 9:1-3
As he went along, he saw a man blind from birth.
His disciples asked him, ‘Rabbi, who sinned, this
man or his parents, that he was born blind?’
‘Neither this man nor his parents sinned,’ said
Jesus, ‘but this happened so that the work of
God might be displayed in his life.

As long as it is day, we must do the work of him
who sent me. Night is coming, when no one can

the world.’ Having said this, he spit on the

it on the man’s eyes.

‘Go,’ he told him, ‘wash in the Pool of Siloam’
(this words means Sent). So the man went and
washed, and came home seeing. His neighbors
and those who had formerly seen him begging
asked, ‘Isn’t this the same man who used to sit
and beg?’ Some claimed that he was. Others
said, ‘No, he only looks like him.’ Be he himself
insisted, ‘I am the man.’

washed, and then I could see.’ ‘Where is this
man?’ they asked him. ‘I don’t know,’ he said.

7. One of our recruiting techniques is
simply telling our STORY.
Sharing your testimony is a way of
DEBRIEFING, giving a summary of
what God has done in your life.
What happened is where the WORK of God is put on
display.
When have you learned the most about God; most
likely when you have had to LEAN on Him.
They wanted to know how when what they really
needed to know was WHO.

8. Who was involved is where we testify
to the ONE whom God sent
Our … common denominator is JESUS.
It doesn’t matter how God got your ATTENTION…
What now? Give all the GLORY to God.
Many of us hold back in FEAR that you don’t know
enough, but God has given you all you need to know.
The CREDIT is not on the man’s faith or obedience,
but keeps coming back to Jesus.
