Spiritual Maturity
Hebrews 5:12-14 “You need milk, not solid food,for everyone who lives on milk is unskilled in the word of righteousness, since he is a child. But solid food is for the mature, for those who have their powers of discernment trained by constant practice to distinguish good from evil.” It is a wonderful thing to be born of the Spirit.…

The God Who Sees
James 4:7 “Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.” Sometimes the Bible tells us the same thing in two different ways, i.e., the positive and the negative, in the very same verse. Such is the case in the verse above. There are two commands given here, but they are…

A Whole New View
2 Corinthians 5:15-16 “He died for all, that those who live might no longer live for themselves but for Him who for their sake died and was raised. From now on, therefore, we regard no one according to the flesh. Even though we once regarded Christ according to the flesh, we regard Him thus no longer.” How do…

Seeing Unseen Things
2 Corinthians 4:16-18 “So we do not lose heart. Though our outer self is wasting away, our inner self is being renewed day by day. For this light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison, as we look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen. For the things…

More Than Meets the Eye
Isaiah 53:2-3 “He had no form or majesty that we should look at him, and no beauty that we should desire him. He was despised and rejected by men, a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief; and as one from whom men hide their faces he was despised, and we esteemed him not.” Colossians 1:27 “Christ in you . . .” The…

What do you see?
Acts 7:55-56 “But he, full of the Holy Spirit, gazed into heaven and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing at the right hand of God. And he said, ‘Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of Man standing at the right hand of God.’” In the above account of the martyrdom of Stephen we understand that Stephen saw…

Have you seen the glory?
Isaiah 6:3 “The whole earth is full of his glory.” What is glory? One definition I’ve heard that has helped me to understand the term is that “glory” is “a manifestation of the greatness of God.” The Seraphim that Isaiah saw and spoke of in Isaiah 6 said that the whole earth is full of…

Sight for the blind
2 Corinthians 4:3-6 “And even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing. In their case the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, to keep them from seeing the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God. For what we proclaim is not ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord,…

Who do you see?
John 14:20 “On that day you will realize that I am in my Father, and you are in me, and I am in you.” If you are a believer, how do you see other believers? Do you see them as other people only, no more or no less than any other person who, like you, is going…
