The line of sight

Sep 18
3 min read

The perceptible, and the imperceptible. Lines of perception to the world are drawn via the sight line one has. If for instance through no fault of their own a person see's a figure of a bird sitting in a warehouse and perceives it to be a bird which has life and can fly if it wanted to. They perceive what could have be a statue as something separate from the truth of what it is. Their line of sight is almost spiritual in nature, they believe the statue to be alive. They question it, they go their co workers and ask. What is that bird doing in the corner of the warehouse? The co-workers have a laugh and tell the person it's just a statue. We've altered belief structure of the person at this point to belief in the world, the soulish part, the imagined becomes unimagined. The truth revealed almost disappointing in that the imagination had such hope for life. Now if we ignore our co-workers and believe on the item as a real thing and form bond or relationship with it. It becomes real in the spirit, it's bonded to us as a thing of adoration, and exhortation. We believe it and it takes on personality through that belief. In relation to the Lord Jesus, The trinity, Father, Son and Holy Ghost, and our belief system is not unlike the story of the bird. It's belief in the unseen. BUT this unseen God has no statue, no image except ones built by man. He hasn't a face that He goes around flaunting to everyone. He doesn't drive you crazy in the middle of the night. And He doesn't attach His spirit to items. His spirit dwells in each of us. We even us, even humanity are much like the bird, belief that God dwells in all of us and we see others as real figures of people upon the earth. The people are both there and not there... we see the flesh... or the exterior but we believe they have a mind in which we cannot see. We imagine a person behind the mind of them, we don't know the person but we perceive him. We can't see him, but know his personality is there. And we build a framework, a line of sight around the imperceptible mind we think we have a grasp of. Jesus is much the same, we know Him to be there and we build a line of sight, pictured of what we have built as the perceived framework of Him.


A copy and a shadow of who He is, a drawn up imagery within our minds of who we believe Him to be. Instead of who He has shown Himself as, pertaining to His character and He the person.


WARNING: The dangers of praying to idols and not God in this way. The danger is we can worship a thing and cause it to form bond, as real. Extremely Dangerous. While this story is meant to draw you closer to understanding Jesus. It's also dangerous in that we make things real by our belief in them. So know that a passing misunderstanding is NOT meant to tell you go and believe on the things within the world as real. Believe on the things in the heavenly places as real. They will begin to show themselves too you, as you continue in that journey. And yes things in the world have a temporary realness to them, you can interact with them while here. Though like all things it falls apart and becomes like dust eventually, thrown into fires and molded into tools, all things eventually find there way into the dirt. Heaven is infinite and never ending, it continues beyond the world, above it, not subject to the dirt beneath. Trust in that and believe in Him. Our Heavenly Father, Lord Jesus exists in the heaven, above all heavens. Do not attach yourself to things of lesser heavens. Thank you Jesus, Thank you Heavenly Father, Thank you Holy Spirit.
