Checked with my right eye, it says everything is good with it: no complaints. My left one was a bit grumpy though and I asked it what was the matter, It replied, "That right eye and me, something smells between us."
I plucked out my right eye early in my walk with Jesus.
As soon as I figured out what Jesus meant.
And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee:
for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish,
and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.
Matthew 5:29
So describe you experience with Jesus. How was he manifest to you?
He comes up in the midst of us in a moment.
Be ready for Him.
Be ye therefore ready also:
for the Son of man cometh at an hour when ye think not.
Luke 12:40
For the Lord had said unto Moses,
Say unto the children of Israel, Ye are a stiffnecked people:
I will come up into the midst of thee in a moment, and consume thee:
therefore now put off thy ornaments from thee, that I may know what to do unto thee.
Exodus 33:5
My dear fellow, have you never heard of the 3 w's who, what and why? Quite important to decoding written words into cogent thought. Who was it written to, what was said, and why was it said.
w1: God's word is not speaking to you?
w2: What has God's word to with you?
w3: Why would anyone bother with God's word?
... when He was only talking to His children.
Hear, O heavens, and give ear, O earth: for the Lord hath spoken,
I have nourished and brought up children, and they have rebelled against Me.
The ox knoweth his owner, and the donkey his master's crib:
but Israel doth not know, My people doth not consider.
Isaiah 1:2-3
As it is you have turned the bible into a cafe. In this cafe, you are god and get to decide which texts to use for your religion and what that text means. You can utter complete nonsense such as knowing when someones eye is offended or you can take a text and completely recreate its meanings turning mooing bullocks into certain sins.
If you turn at His reproof, He will pour out His spirit upon you,
and He will make known His words to you.
But I think you don't want to know.
You are happy with your current understanding. Yes?
The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit:
a broken and a contrite heart, O God, Thou wilt not despise.
Do good in Thy good pleasure unto Zion:
build Thou the walls of Jerusalem.
Then shalt Thou be pleased with the sacrifices of righteousness,
with burnt offering and whole burnt offering:
then shall they offer bullocks upon Thine altar.
Psalm 51:17-19
To some this may pass as wisdom but it really is simply creativity. In the end, no harm no foul unless you hook the gullible.
I am saying to believe Jesus, my friend.
And until we do get to stand in His presence, we have only the written word.
But He answered and said, It is written,
Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.
Matthew 4:4
And this is love, that we walk after His commandments.
This is the commandment, That, as ye have heard from the beginning, ye should walk in it.
2 John 1:6
Of course it is. Read text insert meaning here. Quite a system you have going. And yet you can't articulate exactly what Jesus did to save you other than He washed you. What does that mean? He ran you through the local car wash?
It means, that when I stood in His presence, in my prayer, He cleansed my soul of my sins.
I'm sorry, I cannot describe to you how He does that.
He also cast another devil or two out of me, at each sabbath prayer I made
And eventually, taught me how to cast them out for myself.
And he that overcometh, and keepeth My works unto the end,
to him will I give power over the nations:
And he shall rule them with a rod of iron;
as the vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers: even as I received of My Father.
Revelation 2:26-27
