20/20 Vision!

2 Corinthians 4: 3 – 4
And even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing. The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel….
 
Paul’s greatest mission on earth, was to bring sight to the spiritually blind.
Fact be told, the church today is filled with spiritually blind people.
 
Scripture tells us that only those who know and love Jesus Christ, have spiritual sight.
We also know, that the Word of God says that those who love Jesus, obey His commands in full.
 
Many people in the world, think that Jesus was the most narrow minded man of all time.
Those are the kinds of people, who can’t see spiritually beyond the end of their nose.
 
I’ve actually had people attend our Winneconne church for a time, and then stopped when they found out what Jesus requires to follow Him.
Those are the people I’m talking about, who do not have sight, to see the things of God—at least not yet.
 
Jesus is narrow minded, and that’s why He encourages us to take the path less traveled. The “narrow” road.
People with spiritual blindness, only see what they want to see, and end up taking the first easy fork that comes along in the road.
People who know Jesus, can actually see the light, because the Kingdom of Jesus, is the Kingdom of light.
 
We all have a choice in this life—spiritual sight or spiritual blindness.
The result of spiritual sight is a sincere and sacrificial worship of God.
Spiritual darkness is always a life filled with emptiness, darkness and gloom and doom…..
