Great evidence that reincarnation was an element of early Christianity - later to be removed by worldly men who thought they knew better. The disciples obviously believed that humans paid for sins from past lives through suffering in the next. Jesus did not reprimand them for believing so - nor did He condemn such a belief as giving any offence to God. All He did in this instance was to say that the blind man's affliction was not due to sin but hinted that the man had volunteered to be born blind for the express purpose of having Jesus demonstrate His power of healing.
Praise the Lord for this word. Hallelujah!!!!
Amen Glory to JESUS CHRIST
