  1. 1Now as Jesus passed by, He saw a man who was blind from birth. 2And His disciples asked Him, saying, “Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?”

  2. 3Jesus answered, “Neither this man nor his parents sinned, but that the works of God should be revealed in him. 4I must work the works of Him who sent Me while it is day; the night is coming when no one can work. (John 9)

  3. While It Is Day! There is also a limited time for us to do what can be and must be done!

  4. Living In Time • Live godly now - Titus 2:11-14

  5. 11For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men, 12teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly in the present age,

  6. 13looking for the blessed hope and glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ, 14 who gave Himself for us, that He might redeem us from every lawless deed and purify for Himself His own special people, zealous for good works. (Titus 2)

  7. Living In Time • Live godly now - Titus 2:11-14 • While it is day – John 9:4

  8. 4 I must work the works of Him who sent Me while it is day; the night is coming when no one can work. (John 9)

  9. Living In Time • Live godly now - Titus 2:11-14 • While it is day – John 9:4 • Your life a vapor – James 4:13-17

  10. 13Come now, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go to such and such a city, spend a year there, buy and sell, and make a profit”;  14whereas you do not know what will happen tomorrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapor that appears for a little time and then vanishes away.

  11. 15Instead you ought to say, “If the Lord wills, we shall live and do this or that.”  16But now you boast in your arrogance. All such boasting is evil. 17Therefore, to him who knows to do good and does not do it, to him it is sin. (James 4)

  13. 10But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night, in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise, and the elements will melt with fervent heat; both the earth and the works that are in it will be burned up.

  14. 11Therefore, since all these things will be dissolved, what manner of persons ought you to be in holy conduct and godliness, 12looking for and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of which the heavens will be dissolved, being on fire, and the elements will melt with fervent heat? 

  15. 13Nevertheless we, according to His promise, look for new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness dwells. (2 Peter 3)
