After conversion what? As illustrated in the record of the healing of blind Bartimaeus. "And he. . . . came to Jesus . . . . immediately he received his sight, and followed Jesus in the way," Mark 10:50-52. This brief word to young people by Rev Foster is preceded by a word of testimony by his oldest grandchild, Ivan Foster Jr; who was restored from backsliding some two months ago and here testifies to the young people of the congregation of God's mercy to him. For a long time, blind Bartimaeus had sat in darkness. It is likely he sat all his life in the state of physical darkness. Spiritual darkness is the state we were born into and remained in until our deliverance. "The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised," Luke 4:18.
