1 | What does not Satisfy | Is 55:2 | DocTrinsograce | 233672 | ||
"This is a question which, in one form or another, often exercises young Christians and stumbles inquirers, if the true riches of the soul are found not in the things of time and sense, why is it that our fellows labor so hard for 'what does not satisfy'? If the best which this world has to offer us perishes with the using of it, why is it prized so highly by almost one and all? Here is the explanation: because men view things through a vitiated [impaired or destroyed] eye, so that the real appears but a phantom, and the shadows are mistaken for the substance. Marvel not at this, says Christ, they lack the single eye [Matthew 6:22-23], the Divinely enlightened understanding, they are in nature's darkness: they cannot discern between things that differ, they are incapable of judging aright of the true treasure, and being ignorant of the heavenly they seek only the earthly." --A. W. Pink (1886-1952), from his Exposition of the Sermon on the Mount | ||||||
