Now I See Sermon Illustration

This ABC News video captures the magical moment when someone who is blind gains the ability to see: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ctXSpfEDK8. In clips such as these, we get to witness someone who has lived their life in darkness suddenly able to see their surroundings and the people they love. Imagine, if you can, what it must be like to go through life unable to see, and then someone develops the technology or a new procedure is found that opens your eyes. How do you think sight changes life for someone who has lived their life blind? Probably in practically every way! Consider a parallel: those who don’t know Christ are spiritually blind. And those who have come to know Jesus can now see. As Paul says in 2 Corinthians 4:4, “The god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, to keep them from seeing the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.”
