Jesus' Signs of Authority Bring God Glory (9:8)

Often God will vindicate his work despite opposition if we persevere in doing good (compare 7:28; 8:27; 9:33; 12:23). When God provides clear testimony of his power, expect hostility from those who resist God's testimony; but recognize that God's works will always bring him more glory in the end.
