Yes, especially at the beginning we walk by faith for we started out completely blind spiritually. As our real [what God would call real]knowledge and our faith increase, will not our vision improve? Will not Jesus touch our eyes again as He did with the blind man cited above? Is there not to...

So then modern physical mirrors are better. Should it not be so spiritually as a person moves or is moved closer to God?

Indeed, even in the finest quality of modern mirrors, we only see the superficial. Do not all of us in a measure only see God superficially, unless we have already attained to that "face of face" of which Apostle Paul was writing?

If this is so, will it always be so? Will the physical be gone when we are like Him? "Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is." I John 3:2 "God is a Spirit: and...

Yes, expressing it as two realms works for me. Rather however I would depict it as this the fictional non-reality that men perceive with their natural senses [5] from which they draw conclusions with their supposedly logical mind [brain?], the ultimate ONLY reality is the realm of God. When our...

And given your conclusion, what of between now and then? Are there no improvements possible in our vision during our allotted time "here"? "And he took the blind man by the hand, and led him out of the town; and when he had spit on his eyes, and put his hands upon him, he asked him if he saw...

I would guess that the answer, in part at least, lies in the understanding of who or what is an angel. There are many messengers, but are they all sent by God...? Of those sent by God, are not some sent with a left handed message rather than a right handed one? Are the messengers sent all of...

I have you in prayer, Willie!

This is why people sometimes look back to when they were first "saved" as something better than what is happening now. In the beginning they received the gift of the Holy Ghost with little or no knowledge. As they gained knowledge through study and through the sermons of men [eating the flesh of...

Of course you are correct about making comparisons between natural or carnal perceptions and the things of God: "He hath made every thing beautiful in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end." Ecc...

I have very few pictures of my father because people simply did not even own cameras or they very cautious about taking lot of pictures and paying the price of developing and printing. Many of the pictures that were printed and I remember seeing in my father's house and in his mother's house...

You will always need to listen to and then follow God yourself in spite of good leaders, mediocre leader or even false leaders. If you do He will NOT lead you astray: "But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you." Matt 6:33 Apostle...

@batheltler01 Having read through all of the posts I come back to this one as expressing the solution God gave me for "besetting sins" [see Heb 12:1]. That is as @aspen puts it, don't be "giving up". This amounts to the becoming "weary in well doing" Paul writes about here: "But ye...

I believe that it always rests on our choices, between the ones Jesus mentions specifically: God or mammon. If we choose God really then we are also given the wherewithal to accomplish all the work that He requires of each of us. We must properly use all that He has given us and all that gives...

Give God the glory, indeed!

Yes, you cannot know you do if you do not, but some who do not, walk in delusion because either they lost their love for truth or never had it the first place... although they thought that they did: "And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not...

Right now I cannot say that any one of my current children or grandchildren will be interested enough to take the time to read it all. It can be hard to predict what a young person will do later on... Right now they're all too busy to be bothered. I guess I was as well at their ages. Twice I...

@Vince This is a step in the right direction. We both admit that men on both sides of this fence [if that is a good word here] are sometimes in error. I don't know about all of religion or even all of what is commonly called Christianity or Christendom. But... a more important question...
