The Eye Of Reason

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.
1 John 3:2
        
"Jesus, the world's Redeemer, knows all His children by name, and on those who believe shall come the glory of God....
--Those who behold Jesus become changed to His image,
--become assimilated to His nature,
--and the glory of God that shines in the face of Jesus,
--is reflected in the lives of His followers.
 
It is by faith that the spiritual eye beholds the glory of Jesus.
---This glory is hidden until the Lord imparts the light of spiritual truth,
for the eye of reason cannot see it. ---
The glory and mystery of Christ remains incomprehensible, clouded by its excessive brightness, until the Lord flashes its meaning before the soul.... By faith the soul catches divine light from Jesus."
That I May Know Him E.G.W.
