“And immediately he received his sight, and followed Him, _glorifying God: and all the people, when they saw it, gave praise unto God_.” “And all the people _rejoiced_ for all the glorious things that were done by Him.” Luke 18:43; 13:17. 19. What message did Christ send to John the Baptist while John was in prison, to strengthen his wavering faith? “Go and show John again those things which ye do hear and see: _The blind receive their sight, and the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have the gospel preached to them._ And blessed is he, whosoever shall not be offended in Me.” Matt. 11:4-6. 20. In what miracle did Christ bring to a climax His works on earth? “And when He thus had spoken, He cried with a loud voice, _Lazarus, come forth_. And he that was dead came forth, bound hand and foot with grave-clothes: and his face was bound about with a napkin. Jesus saith unto them, Loose him, and let him go.” John 11:48, 44. 21. What was the result of this great miracle? “Then _many of the Jews_ which came to Mary, and had seen the things which Jesus did, _believed on Him_.” Verse 45. 22. Because of the interest which this miracle created in Him, what did the Pharisees say? “Behold, _the world is gone after Him_.” John 12:19. 23. What did Jesus present to the people as a basis of confidence in Him? “If I do not the works of My Father, believe Me not. But if I do, though ye believe not Me, _believe the works_: that ye may know, and believe, that the Father is in Me, and I in Him.” “Believe Me that I am in the Father, and the Father in Me: or else _believe Me for the very works’ sake_.” John 10:37, 38; 14:11. 24. Did Jesus ever make use of ordinary means in performing His miracles? “When He had thus spoken, He spat on the ground, and made clay of the spittle, and He _anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay_, and said unto him, Go, _wash in the pool of Siloam_, (which is by interpretation, Sent). He went his way therefore, and washed, and came seeing.” John 9:6, 7. See also Mark 7:33-35; 8:23-25; 2 Kings 5:1-14. 25. Why were the miracles of Christ recorded by the inspired writers? “And many other signs truly did Jesus in the presence of His disciples, which are not written in this book: but _these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through His name_.” John 20:30, 31.
