John 11:9 (b) The light of GOD's Word reveals GOD's way, and GOD's plan so that the child of GOD who walks in fellowship with GOD will not stray away from the path.
Romans 9:32 (b) Israel felt they could get along very well as long as CHRIST was left out of the picture. When He appeared the Scribes, the Pharisees and the Herodians at once complained, resented and rejected CHRIST. It revealed their hatred and exposed their evil hearts. (See Romans 11:11; 1 Peter 2:8).
Romans 14:21 (b) Paul would not have any believer to have a false idea, or come to a wrong conclusion by anything which he would do. A Christian doctor might be going into a saloon as a call of duty to save the life of an injured man. Someone seeing him go might say, "If he can patronize the saloon, so can I," and so that one would be led astray because he did not know the facts. This is Paul's argument. (See1Jo 2:10).
