"Now as Jesus went on his way, He saw a man blind from birth. And His disciples put a question to Him saying, 'Master, was it because of this man's sin, or the sin of his father and mother, that he has been blind from birth?' Jesus said in answer, 'It was not because of this man's sin, or his father and mother, it was so that the works of God might be seen openly in him.'" John 9: 1-3
