Paul’s eyes were blinded by God, not opened, on the road to Damascus.

And there you have it...just make it up regardless of what the scriptures teaches.

NAB Acts 9:

1
Now Saul, still breathing murderous threats against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest
2
and asked him for letters to the synagogues in Damascus, that, if he should find any men or women who belonged to the Way, he might bring them back to Jerusalem in chains.
3
On his journey, as he was nearing Damascus, a light from the sky suddenly flashed around him.
4
He fell to the ground and heard a voice saying to him, “Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me?”
5
He said, “Who are you, sir?” The reply came, “I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting.
6
Now get up and go into the city and you will be told what you must do.”
7
The men who were traveling with him stood speechless, for they heard the voice but could see no one.
8
Saul got up from the ground, but when he opened his eyes he could see nothing; so they led him by the hand and brought him to Damascus.
9
For three days he was unable to see, and he neither ate nor drank.


My Bible tells me that Saul was blinded on the road to Damascus. What does your Scripture teach you?
