baptize

Among the last things Jesus called his followers to do was to make disciples. A disciple is someone who is following Jesus with all of their life. Making disciples means being intentional about seeing our lives multiplied in others. This should inform everything we do in life.

John 9:8-17 (ESV)
Andrew and Edwin notice Jesus performed this miracle on the Sabbath. The whole discussion about working on the Sabbath and who the Jews accuse of working on the Sabbath gives some great insight into the question about responding to Jesus's command to wash and whether getting baptized for the remission of our sins is actually working for salvation.

John 9:1-7 (NKJV)
Andrew and Edwin consider how this miracle mirrors the salvation process. They specifically consider when the man was actually healed and how that parallels when we are saved by Jesus based on His instructions and promises.
