Bible Note: Greetings Sttil! What does Scripture say my friend? Rom. 11:8b - "God gave them a spirit of stupor, eyes so that they could not see and ears so that they could not hear, to this very day." It does not say that Satan gave them eyes that could not see! In fact, no where does Scripture say that Satan has any such power. He can certainly lie to us, tempt us, or deceive us! But, nowhere does Scripture say that he can blind us! Why did God blind some? Read the entire context of Rom. 9-11! Because Israel was blind, they killed Christ! Because they killed Christ, our sins were paid for by Him! Now, salvation is offered to everyone, Jew or Gentile!
