Swimming in the Pool is not the Same as Taking a Bath
Sermon Notes
- “ran up to” Jesus
- “fell on his knees before” Jesus
- called Jesus “Good teacher”
- and in his own mind (his own understanding) he had kept God’s commandments: “all these I have kept since I was a boy”
Swimming in the Pool is Not the Same as Taking a Bath
What Jesus sees is what matters most
- “Jesus looked at him and loved him.”
- Jesus saw him (imperfections and all) & Jesus still loved him
- Jesus love for the man, wouldn’t allow Jesus to let him stay in his own “misunderstandings” and darkness.
- Jesus brought light to that which was previously hidden in darkness for the man
