fuller manifestation of the divine presence than the world had ever
enjoyed before. But in this very revelation, judgment was passing
upon men. Their character was tested, their destiny determined.
Some of His hearers, feeling that Christ’s words applied to them,
inquired, “Are we blind also?” Jesus answered, “If ye were blind, ye
should have no sin.” If God had made it impossible for you to see
the truth, your ignorance would involve no guilt. “But now ye say,
We see.” You believe yourselves able to see, and reject the means
through which alone you could receive sight. The Pharisees refused
to come to Christ, hence were left in blindness. Jesus said, “Your
sin remaineth.”
