Kick him out!
'And they threw him out' John 9:34
Here's the good news...
'Jesus has cured your blindness'
Here's the bad news ...
'Because it was Jesus that cured you ...
and on the Sabbath ...
that makes you a follower of Jesus,
so we are putting you out of the synagogue!
When God acts in a way that offends our theology, or world view, we often react in defense of our preconceived ideas about how life should be.
To the Pharisaical mind ...
if you're sick then somebody must have done something wrong.
To the Pharisaical mind ...
'healing' = 'work' and no work must be done on the Sabbath, therefore Jesus has sinned in healing the man.
They were wrong on both counts.
May God set us free from theological nit picking and false understanding.
