If he was an unbelieving sinner, it flies in the face of Jn9v31, "Now we know that God does not hear sinners, but if anyone is a worshipper of God & does His will, He hears him."

This event happened before the Cross...within the Old Covenant.. 

Jesus had just healed a man born blind...

At that time the Pharisees had taken offence with Jesus Christ, because he healed people on the Sabbath day...according to the Law the Sabbath was a day of rest for both their Lord God and them...

That's what the Pharisees were trying to explain to the man Jesus had just healed, because he was healed on the day of rest the Sabbath day...

They concluded that indeed the blind man was healed...but on Sabbath day...that meant to them that he was healed by some other Godly power, or by another God, or the way they explain it by the power of the Devil....telling the man something quite confusing...

Asking the man to give praise to God...definitely not for the miracle of his healing believing that some evil power healed him...but for him to praise God as a form of renouncing the evil power....Asking God to removed the evil power from him.....would result in him being the way he was before...blind....

And all that on a Saturday....they were confused....that show how much they did not like Jesus..working with the power of other Gods, possible a Roman God....who was sent to deceived them...

The Pharisees they got distracted and were asking indirectly their God to do a miracle to make this man blind again...on Saturday...

Like what happened with Moses and Faraow. 

The blind man...who all his life hope that the Lord would healed him...now to make the Pharisees right had to asked God to make him blind again....free him from the evil healing...

He defended Jesus and  his miracle...saying that you never heard a blind man being healed he defend Jesus...

PS

This is before the Cross and it is referring to Jesus Christ calling upon his Father to heal this man.....

In the Gospel of John chapter one:

Who ever calls upon the name of the Lord-referring to Jesus Christ shall be Saved.....it is about those after the Cross and resurrection who heard the Gospel and believed....it's including the Gentiles...who are not the seed of Abraham born into circumcision and the Law...that upon hearing the Gospel and believed they accepted by Jesus as they are.  No need to be circumcized and be sanctified by the old testiment rituals to be accepted by God....

Simply no need to be Procilites first for their faith to be accepted by Jesus Christ...

PS

As Jesus had said before the Cross he has sheep from another flock, not just the Jewish.   And he will makes the two one...one Savior one Lord..John 10:16....

Paul was preaching the same thing about the new man in Christ Jesus...that there is no more Jew or Gentile, that Jesus on the Cross made the two one...

By faith a Jew is Saved and also by faith in Jesus Christ a "Gentile" is saved...

PS

I put the word Gentile in quotes, because for its historical definition...since The Cross does not mean what it meant before.....

Anyone upon believing in Jesus Christ can call Jesus his Savior and Lord...to actually make him the Lord and guide in someones life it is a dedication...is asking to grow in the faith.. and other things between the believer and jesus Christ..

The most famous verse in the bible, & yet so misconstrued by many, So let's define the words, & see what it actually says.




That little 2 letter word is SO significant. If God loved all the world, that's what it would say, without the 'so'. So means in a particular manner, He loved the world. World being kosmos - orderly arrangement.




People then misconstrue 'that everyone believing into Him'. Everyone is pas o - the all, not just all, the believing all, which are the few elect God has chosen.




Yeshua did not die for the whole world, He died for His bride, the church, as Eph 5v25 says, "....just as Christ loved the church & gave Himself for HER."




People love to quote Rom 10v13, saying that whoever, or everyone who calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved. Whoever, again is 'the all', His elect. The next verse, v14 "How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed?" You cannot be an unbeliever, & call for Him to save you, when your dead in your sins, as an unbeliever, for God does not hear sinners, only believers who have sinned!




That's the truth of His Word, & most won't like it, but it still needs to be said.




 






As always it is context, context and context.




John ch 3:  14 Just as Moses lifted up the snake in the wilderness, so the Son of Man must be lifted up, 15 that everyone who believes may have eternal life in him.”




and 18 Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son.




 




Both make it clear that belief in Jesus is what saves.




How do sinners believe? Because God calls them, gives them his Spirit and the gift of faith.
