"Perfect Vision yet Blind!"

Romans 1:19-21 (Amplified Bible)
 
For that which is known about God is evident to them and made plain in their inner consciousness, because God [Himself] has shown it to them.
For ever since the creation of the world His invisible nature and attributes, that is, His eternal power and divinity, have been made intelligible and clearly discernible in and through the things that have been made (His handiworks). So [men] are without excuse [altogether without any defense or justification],
Because when they knew and recognized Him as God, they did not honor and glorify Him as God or give Him thanks. But instead they became futile and godless in their thinking [with vain imaginings, foolish reasoning, and stupid speculations] and their senseless minds were darkened.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>|||<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

Certainly the Apostle Paul was a rather well educated man, yet it was not this great learning by which he had come to see and understood God's Truth, for as he later writes to the Corinthian church,

1 Corinthians 1:21 (Amplified Bible)
 
For when the world with all its earthly wisdom failed to perceive and recognize and know God by means of its own philosophy, God in His wisdom was pleased through the foolishness of preaching [salvation, procured by Christ and to be had through Him], to save those who believed (who clung to and trusted in and relied on Him).

The darkness which hides God's Truth from the eyes hearts of men who are determined to reason and calculate the times and seasons regarding this world, are blind to the spiritual realm for which Holy Spirit has been given to Believers for understanding and revelation.

This being my Christ centered desire, the same as Paul, Peter, James and John, to point men toward the Truth of God's Son, as they search in futility to understand the deep mysteries of the galaxies and heavens which remain beyond their scope of carnal vision.

Hebrews 11:1 (Amplified Bible)
 
NOW FAITH is the assurance (the confirmation, the title deed) of the things [we] hope for, being the proof of things [we] do not see and the conviction of their reality [faith perceiving as real fact what is not revealed to the senses].

Faith in Christ being the assurance and substance of the surpassing knowledge of things I am unable to see with my physical eyes, and is therefore my Eternal HOPE as revealed within my heart by God's Spirit who as Christ says will guide me into ALL Truth and Understanding of HIS WORD.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>|||<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

O'Lord, YOU are everlasting, timeless and unchanging,
in YOUR Love for me and my soul that hungers for more of YOU!
I look to YOU for Understanding and Wisdom,
that which my eyes and my mind with Hope long to see!!
YOUR WORD says that I have the Mind of Christ,
and by YOUR Truth will I know the Love YOU have for me!!!
As I in Faith desire to fulfill YOUR Will,
guide me in my daily walk by YOUR Spirit of Light!
YOU have destroyed the darkness that once hid the Truth
from me as I gazed into the eyes of YOUR Son
finding HIM to be the Way, the Truth and the Life!

Thank YOU O'Lord for the Son of YOUR Love,
who gave HIS life that I might have Eternal Life!!
Amen!
