Hi
@SkyWriting
I'm curious why you would think that Jesus temporarily blinding someone to serve a purpose would be 'harming' anyone.
I covered that. Jesus would never blind anyone. It's not in His DNA. It never happened.
Let me double check on that though. Yup, just as I thought.

And this is the judgment: the light has come into the world, and people loved the darkness rather than the light because their works were evil. For everyone who does wicked things hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his works should be exposed. But whoever does what is true comes to the light, so that it may be clearly seen that his works have been carried out in God.”
Isaiah 9:2
The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light; those who dwelt in a land of deep darkness, on them has light shined.
