Episode 26 | Hope For The Spiritually Blind
Why is it that some people believe in Jesus and yet others do not? That question and much more like it is the subject of many debates. But the Bible teaches something quite clear. People can not believe in Jesus because they are spiritually blind.
In this final sermon on the Gospel of Mark, we look at the unusual story of “Blind Bartimaeus.” What makes this story so interesting is based upon Bartimaeus relentless pursuit of Jesus. Because of his condition (being born blind), he was left to beg. Jesus ministry provided him hope that his life could change.

Key Notes to Remember
John Mark chooses to highlight the story of Bartimaeus not just because of another miracle performed by Jesus, but instead what blind Bartimaeus represents. Namely, he represents everyone who has not had their eyes opened to the good news of Jesus.
