Asking the Amazing Question on Facebook

“What do you want me to do for you?” It is a question from the Bible that has come to be called the Amazing Question. The question is from Luke 18:35, when Jesus encountered a blind beggar while on his way to Jericho.

And he cried out, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!” And those who were in front rebuked him,

telling him to be silent. But he cried out all the more, “Son of David, have mercy on me!” And Jesus stopped

and commanded him to be brought to him. And when he came near, He [Jesus] asked him, “What do you want

me to do for you?” He said, “Lord, let me recover my sight.” And Jesus said to him, “Recover your sight; your

faith has made you well.” And immediately he recovered his sight and followed him, glorifying God.

And all the people, when they saw it, gave praise to God.

The Amazing Question has been used by many to spark spiritual conversations and share the Gospel. The story has a natural segue to faith conversations, simply by asking, “If Jesus were to ask you that question, what would you say?”

“The Amazing Question is powerful because it uses Scripture, it puts Jesus in the center of the conversation, and it demonstrates that the God of the Bible wants to help you,” says Keith, a missionary with Cru.
