Spiritual Blindness Amoung other Fellow Believers

Writer's picture: Lucas SantanaLucas Santana

It's one thing when sinners are lost, living in sin and darkness. It's another thing when people who profess to be "born again" are just as blind as they(unbelievers) are, concerning issues of the day. You try talking to some believers about social, political, or world issues, and you would hope that they had a "Christ-like mindset" on the issues at hand. My cousin and I were having a conversation one day, and we were discussing issues of the day, world events for example. He said to me, "You need to take off the religious blinders" This coming from someone who says they are saved. The Bible says that "we've been given the mind of Christ". But how many believers are functioning with that Holy Spirit mindset? If we lean on our own understanding, then we will lack Spiritual and Godly understanding. Why? Because we are looking through narrow lenses, and a short scope in a sense. There are different views or world views. You have a secular (world) view, and Biblical view as well. We have the ability to understanding and see things from a secular view, like other carnal Christians if we allow ourselves to drift down that path. But when we embrace a secular(worldly)view, then we will see and comprehend things from a worldly perspective, because we conformed to those ideologies and secular thought patterns. That person's beliefs aren't based of the Word of God because it has little if any place in their life. Isaiah 55:8-9 says"For my ways are not your ways and my thoughts are not your thoughts says the Lord. As high as the Heavens are above the earth, so are my ways about your ways, and my thoughts above your thoughts". This is why we have to abandon any mindset that doesn't align with God's word, and come up to God's level and see life from his Perspective and point of view. We can do that by getting in the Word of God daily and coming into agreement with it completely because the Bible is our "ABSOLUTE"!!!
