The odd healing

After John 9 

Dirt and spit are not

the usual medical

treatment for blindness, 

mixed together to make

mud. Directions for use:

anoint the eyes, once,

then rinse in the pool.

Shocking, yes, but

isn’t this how man

was created, taken from

the dust of the ground

and life breathed into

him? 

The first birth – created

from dust and breath.

The second birth – created

from dust and spit.

Man created from dust.

Man born again from dust.
