“While we do not look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporary, but the things which are not seen are eternal.” 2 cor 4:18 nkjv |
February 3, 2026 How do you see things “which are not seen?” What kind of eyes do you look at them with? It seems to me that an uninformed person, while not a God hater, just simply a unlearned and general observer, might have a problem understanding what the Apostle Paul is getting at, you think? Would they connect the temporary vs eternal concept as well? Sometimes we old-timers in the faith can overlook the simple needs of the unlearned and we can miss making the simple points more understandable for them. Shortly after Paul said this, in 2 cor 5:7 he said, “For we walk by faith, and not by sight.” Did Paul intend for us to simply close our natural eyes and stumble over things? I think he intends us to walk in a parallel dimension, one which he calls temporal, and the other he calls eternal. Further, to walk by faith, one must decide what one has faith in… faith walking can be solely self-dependent, disregarding the reality around us [denial] and bearing down on our own efforts and blotting out the issues we simply don’t want to address, while we construct our own “envisioned” concept of things that satisfy our objectives. This model only serves one in the temporal realm… Then, on the other hand, if one has “spirit eyes” and focuses their perspective upon the Biblical World View, and God’s defined “reality,” one places their destiny in Yahweh’s hands and trust Him by the “inner faith” that runs parallel with our walk in the real world… the inner faith is not blind, it simply has its focus upon God’s Word, which is the building blocks of our inner vision, which is the construct of faith. This model allows us to walk out our temporal time and paves the way into the God intended eternal destiny prepared for us from time immemorial. In Hebrews 11:6, it says that without faith it is impossible to please God. And again, as I understand the Bible, Paul writes in Romans 10:17, that faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God… This same Bible also teaches us that faith is a free gift from God, and that He has given us each a “measure of faith.” rom 12:3 We learn from Gen 15:6, in Yahweh’s establishing “His people” plan, that when Abraham “believed” God, that He accounted it to him for righteousness. Abraham is thus often called the “father of our faith.” Heb 12:2, Yeshua [Jesus] is the source of the concept of Yahweh being the “author and finisher” of our faith… as faith relationship with Yahweh began with Abraham, and Yeshua confirmed and finished it. Faith in Yahweh and faith in what Yeshua has achieved and established for us at Calvary is the “inner vision” of our faith. As a side note, I wish to emphasis that our faith is NOT to be a complicated matter. Yeshua clearly pointed out that unless we come unto our Heavenly Father as like a little child we cannot enter the Kingdom… Mark 10:15 So then, our faith is a free gift and formulated perfectly for each of us in measure… just as we each need. Simple obedience and thankfulness would be a good place to start, I think. Yahweh also provided the Holy Spirit to supercharge our faith, as He understood our weakness as Paul describes in Romans. This is especially important because of the complicated dogma of religion and “doctrinal influence of men.” When things confuse people and cause stress in their thinking it discourages their pursuits of understanding. Trust Yahweh’s Word… think upon its permanence and eternal truth, prayerfully ask Him to show you your way; if you are committed to walking in the way of His Word, you will get to the right destination. Now let me shift gears and get to the point. I said all the above to set the mental picture of why we need to have faith and walk in a Torah defined spiritual realm [dimension], because we are simultaneously confronted by a diabolical power that also inhabits one of the extra-dimensional realms that [if allowed] can and will try to usurp your focus and thereby your vision and lead you in subsequent pursuits of evil offerings as snares to trap you. The Bible has told us much, and has held back things we don’t need to know [yet], and even the Apostle Paul said he was aware of a third heaven… 2 cor 12:1-3; we are also told of angelic conflicts of waring beings as Daniel, in Chapter 10 noted, one being called the “prince of Persia” and another, the“prince” of Greece… wherever these “dimensions” are, we would be foolish to deny that they are real. In the scientific world, in quantum physics and string theory, I have read that as many as 37 different dimensions exist… above my pay scale. Regardless, I among others, have long thought the UFO phenomenon to be “dimensional activity,” not extra-terrestrial. One other thing, the Scripture tells us that the “shields of the earth” belong to God… ps 47:9b That said, I must conclude no harmful entity can trans-dimensionally afflict a believer who Yahweh shields from harm. Now why would the Apostle Paul warn us about this: “Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. 12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. 13 Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.” eph 6:11-13 nkjv Then Paul says this… “Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness, 15 and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; 16 above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one. 17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God; 18 praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints.” eph 6:14-18 nkjv Which “dimension” is this diabolical power operating from… I say I don’t know, but I would also say it [they] seem(s) to have influence directly on some, and indirectly on others… Some could be said to be trans-dimensional luciferin [reptilian] agents that are actually in touch and directly empowering real human surrogates. There are many books and historical accounts of such activity and certainly the satanic and occult groups are proactive in this cabal of evil. The powerful elites who manipulate world governments are of this element, and are reported to practice satanic rituals. I have followed this subject for many years and I observe it is, in recent years, coming more into the open than it has been in the past. I think it is to be expected if you believe the Biblical record. What are some of their tools, other than direct influence on their surrogates? Well, I think the most explosive exhibits of their recent work is in the field of AI and its ancillary connections. We have too many people dabbling in the interactions now available with artificial entities, some include dark spiritual overtones… anyone online with a cell phone or computer can indulge in this dangerous practice. I could link several crazy and nearly unbelievable sources that have posted much detail on this activity. Here is the point. If you continue to indulge in these evil portals, or allow your children to be distorted into this demonic realm, you’ll loose your fellowship with your Savior… He is a jealous God. ex 20:5 He makes no provision for coexistent dabbling with luciferins. The time is upon us that requires us to “come out from among them.” 2 cor 6:17 I am including a link to a, really to the point [in your face] message, by one Jamie Walden, preaching a message called the Days of Lot. Many will not know the implications of the “days of Lot.” If not, you need to hear this message. If you know of the “days of Lot,” do you really know the fullness of the message that the Bible elaborates on concerning this dangerous time [end times] in human history? I hope you will take this devotional to heart. We need to [more than ever] walk in the Spirit [see the reality of life through Yahweh's Word view]… It is impossible for our natural intellectual mind to sort out the complexities of the technological tools the evil powers are wielding against us… only seeing the issues and events with “Spirit eyes” and equipping ourselves with the “whole armor of God,” that Paul lists above, can protect us… starting with our mind and our heart. This AI onslaught will intensify its attacks on our thinking and satiate our “appetites” for the tasty temptations it offers. The Bible warns us of the great deception that brings a “God delivered” curse [strong delusion] upon us if we do not have a love for the truth (2 thes 2:9-12)… everything in the AI toolbox is designed to separate you from the counsel of the Torah and distort the image of Yahweh [Yeshua]. The meaning of Babylon is “confusion,” AI is Babylon… Watch, with Spirit eyes, and Pray in the Spirit. Shalom, John |
