The Believers of Jesus Christ who live by
sight, meaning they're limited to interpreting their five senses as it
relates to our natural world, will permanently be restricted if not stagnated in
their spiritual walk.
As Believers in Jesus Christ, we are commanded
to walk by faith and NOT by sight. In other words, as members of the body of Christ,
we directly violate this spiritual law stated in 2 Corinthians 5:7
when we judge or even assess matters from a superficial or physical
perspective.
As a body of Believers, our acceptance of Jesus
Christ and his works on the cross has to transition us from mere natural men
and women (being limited by our five senses) to receiving the Spirit of God, whose purpose is to elevate us to greater spiritual understanding along with
limitless spiritual experiences.
Therefore, if the Believer does not see him or
herself as a new spiritual creation with the Spirit of God dwelling within
them, then more than likely, they will automatically revert to their usual
natural way of living, of course, which is limited to their five senses which are
governed by fear.
Walking by faith means walking or behaving
according to the Holy Bible's laws, principles, rules, and protocols! In
doing so, you are positioning yourself to live, walk and even behave in a
manner that must exceed your natural human limitations. Moreover, you are also in a better position to receive the things of the spirit. According to
scripture, the natural man, in his attempt to obtain the things of the spirit, will always conclude the things of the spirit as foolishness simply because
such things are spiritually discerned. On the other hand, the Believers of
Jesus Christ, who have been spiritually regenerated, will always see
things from their origin no matter how it is presented. The source of all
things is spiritually rooted, and it will always be the process of comparing
spiritual things with something of a spiritual nature that will unveil the
mysteries of our natural problems.
Thus, the following scripture, "13 Which
things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which
the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.
14 But the natural man receiveth, not the
things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he
know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
15 But he that is spiritual judgeth all things,
yet he is judged of no man. 1 Corinthians 2:13-15
Live according to the scriptures if you intend to live beyond your limited and restricted human limitations.
