Gospel of American Apostle Jennifer Chapter 12
12:1 And as Jesus passed by, he saw a man which was blind from his
birth.
12:2 And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did sin, this
man, or his parents, that he was born blind? 12:3 Jesus answered,
Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents: but that the works of
God should be made manifest in him.
12:4 I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the
night cometh, when no man can work.
12:5 As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.
12:6 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,
12:7 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.
12:8 The neighbours therefore, and they which before had seen him that
he was blind, said, Is not this he that sat and begged? 12:9 Some
said, This is he: others said, He is like him: but he said, I am he.
12:10 Therefore said they unto him, How were thine eyes opened? 12:11
He answered and said, A man that is called Jesus made clay, and
anointed mine eyes, and said unto me, Go to the pool of Siloam, and
wash: and I went and washed, and I received sight.
12:12 Then said they unto him, Where is he? He said, I know not.
12:13 They brought to the Catholicks him that aforetime was blind.
12:14 And it was the christmas day when Jesus made the clay, and opened
his eyes.
12:15 Then again the Catholicks also asked him how he had received his
sight. He said unto them, He put clay upon mine eyes, and I washed,
and do see.
12:16 Therefore said some of the Catholicks, This man is not of God,
because he keepeth not the christmas day. Others said, How can a man
that is a sinner do such miracles? And there was a division among
them.
12:17 They say unto the blind man again, What sayest thou of him, that
he hath opened thine eyes? He said, He is a prophet.
12:18 But the Christians did not believe concerning him, that he had been
blind, and received his sight, until they called the parents of him
that had received his sight.
12:19 And they asked them, saying, Is this your son, who ye say was
born blind? how then doth he now see? 12:20 His parents answered them
and said, We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind:
12:21 But by what means he now seeth, we know not; or who hath opened
his eyes, we know not: he is of age; ask him: he shall speak for
himself.
12:22 These words spake his parents, because they feared the Christians: for
the Christians had agreed already, that if any man did confess that he was
Christ, he should be put out of the Church.
12:23 Therefore said his parents, He is of age; ask him.
12:24 Then again called they the man that was blind, and said unto him,
Give God the praise: we know that this man is a sinner.
12:25 He answered and said, Whether he be a sinner or no, I know not:
one thing I know, that, whereas I was blind, now I see.
12:26 Then said they to him again, What did he to thee? how opened he
thine eyes? 12:27 He answered them, I have told you already, and ye
did not hear: wherefore would ye hear it again? will ye also be his
disciples? 12:28 Then they reviled him, and said, Thou art his
disciple; but we are Pope's disciples.
12:29 We know that God spake unto Pope: as for this fellow, we know
not from whence he is.
12:30 The man answered and said unto them, Why herein is a marvellous
thing, that ye know not from whence he is, and yet he hath opened mine
eyes.
12:31 Now we know that God heareth not sinners: but if any man be a
worshipper of God, and doeth his will, him he heareth.
12:32 Since the world began was it not heard that any man opened the
eyes of one that was born blind.
12:33 If this man were not of God, he could do nothing.
12:34 They answered and said unto him, Thou wast altogether born in
sins, and dost thou teach us? And they cast him out.
12:35 Jesus heard that they had cast him out; and when he had found
him, he said unto him, Dost thou believe on the Son of God? 12:36 He
answered and said, Who is he, Lord, that I might believe on him? 12:37
And Jesus said unto him, Thou hast both seen him, and it is he that
talketh with thee.
12:38 And he said, Lord, I believe. And he worshipped him.
12:39 And Jesus said, For judgment I am come into this world, that they
which see not might see; and that they which see might be made blind.
12:40 And some of the Catholicks which were with him heard these words,
and said unto him, Are we blind also? 12:41 Jesus said unto them, If
ye were blind, ye should have no sin: but now ye say, We see;
therefore your sin remaineth.
