When You See (Through/ Not See)
When, when, when
when you see through
A glass
when you see through a glass
You see only Half
When, when when
when you see through
A glass
when you see through a glass
You see kinda daft
When the half, when the daft
preach to you
Know, know know -
that it will be absurd
When the daft of the half
of the Dark of the Light
speaks up in Town
Know - it's not right
For we live by faith -
for we do not have
All the answers sprouted up
In us - like a Clam
The answers though, lie deep within
the pearl
But years it takes
To ever see the Light
The light, the Light,
the light in the Dark
for now we see through
(WHAT?)
- In the dark -
The light, the Light,
the light in the Dark
for now we see through
But are not - OUT -
of the //// Dark ////
_______________________
(For now we see in the Dark --
to see in the dark is to not
See fully with Light. to not know -
of the Light like the Light does,
but to see things as it were
- from afar - blurred - not altogether
A picture formed - but parts of it
- dimly, with uncertain elements,
But with faith, for the picture is seen,
but not quite seen, only sort of ...)
About this poem
Thoughts On: John 6:65 27Do not work for food that perishes, but for food that endures to eternal life, (work must be done for eternal life to come /and to remain) 32Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I tell you, it was not Moses who gave you the bread from heaven, but it is My Father who gives you the true bread from heaven. (the laws lead to Christ - the laws were given by Moses - which lead to - if kept - the true bread - Christ - the Father will/ does give to) 63The Spirit gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words I have spoken to you are spirit and they are life. (Believing laws - or beliefs - save us - is not believing the Spirit/spirit - true - plain Spirit - gives life) "Calvinist changed the context of “world” to mean the elect, and changed the context of “ for whosoever believeth” to mean the elect, which is not in context with John 3:16 nor any scripture." "What about those not granted the ability to come to Christ? John 6:65 Then Jesus said, “This is why I told you that no one can come to Me unless the Father has granted it to him.”" https://forums.carm.org/ threads/a-question-calvinists-wont-answer.14736/ post-1212008 https://www.biblehub.com › john › 14-21.htm John 14:21 Whoever has My commandments and keeps them is the one who ... The person who has My commandments and keeps them is the one who [really] loves Me; and whoever [really] loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and reveal Myself to him [I will make Myself real to him]." Christian Standard Bible (whosoever has the commandments in some way, shape, or form - is following them, or begins to follow right principles even more than they did before - is evetually 'given' to the (Father) Spirit/ spiritual, or eventually starts following - the Spirit (Christ/ the Father).
