The Miracles Christ Performed
Text: John 9: 6-7
THE MIRACLES CHRIST PERFORMED
Jesus was most conscious of what He was doing! He would perform His miracles in different ways!
1. Turning water to wine (John 2)
Jesus gave instructions to the servants of the bridegroom. The water turned into wine! He performed this miracle quietly. There was no fanfare of any kind.
2. Healing of a nobleman’s son (John 4)
Jesus healed the son of the noble man from a distance. He did not go to the man’s house. He just spoke a word and the man had to exercise his faith in Jesus.
3. Healing of a lame man at Bethesda (John 5)
Jesus simply told the man to take up his bed and walk. The man was instantly healed.
4. The feeding of the five thousand (John 6)
Jesus blessed the five loaves and two fish. The food was multiplied miraculously and He fed more than five thousand people.
5. The healing of the blind man (John 9)
Jesus did this quite differently from the other miracles He performed.
“When He had said these things, He spat on the ground and made clay with the saliva; and He anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay. And He said to him, ‘Go, wash in the pool of Siloam’ (which is translated, “Sent”). So he went and washed, and came back seeing.”
John 9:6-7
UNDERSTANDING THE ACTIONS OF JESUS
This miracle is best understood in the light of what Jesus had just said, “I am the light of the world.”
1. Light is necessary for sight
a) Light is necessary even for the sighted.
b) Without light, nothing can be seen.
c) Jesus was that Light and only through Him can we see and appreciate things.
2. The actions of Jesus
a) There was no magical power in the clay and saliva of Jesus.
b) The elaborate things Jesus did would be significant to the blind man.
c) The actions conveyed deep meaning.
3. The Pool called “Sent” (Siloam)
a) Jesus was sent by His Father.
b) The blind man was sent by Jesus and he obeyed.
Jesus had been sent by the Father to perform this miracle too! Its significance would soon be revealed.
经文：约翰福音9：6-7
基督的神迹
耶稣审慎地施行祂的执事。祂会以不同方式显现神迹！
1.变水为酒 《约翰福音2》
耶稣吩咐新郎的用人。水就变成酒了！祂谨慎地完成这神迹。完全没有张扬。
2.医大臣之子《约翰福音4》
耶稣从远方医好大臣的儿子。祂并没有到那人的家中。祂只不过说了一句话；那大臣得学习信靠耶稣的话。
3. 医治毕士大池的病者《约翰福音5》
耶稣只须叫那人拿起褥子并且行走。那人立时受到医治。
4. 给五千人吃饱《约翰福音6》
耶稣拿起五个面包与两条鱼祝谢后，这食物很奇妙地受到添加。耶稣喂饱了多过五千人。
5. 医好生来瞎眼的《约翰福音9》
耶稣以非常不同的方式来行这神迹
“耶稣说了这话，就吐唾沫在地上，用唾沫和泥抹在瞎子的眼睛上，对他说：‘你往西罗亚池子里去洗。’（“西罗亚”翻出来就是“奉差遣”。）他去一洗，回头就看见了。”
