TRUE JUDGMENT
John 9:35, 38, 39, 41 || When Jesus calls Himself the Son of Man, He is drawing from Daniel 7, where the Son of Man is coming in judgment against the “fourth beast” which is what stands against the “saints of the Most High”! Believing in the Son of Man defines us as “saints of the Most High” and sets us free to SEE! The True Judgment is not against what most people call a “sinner” but, instead, it is against those who think they can see just fine on their own.
