2 Corinthians 5:7 (For we walk by faith, not by sight: )

As Christians we walk by faith not by sight.

In other words we follow and live by what is not seen or experience in this carnal world.

Some people call it madness, insanity, foolishness etc however that is the way of the Spirit.

The Spirit is not seen neither does the world knows it, the carnal mind follow and live after normal earthly life and principles they only believe what is carnal, they only follow and live by what is in this life but the spiritually minded follow and live by the Spirit, they believe and live by the word of God.

Jesus said man shall not live by bread alone (carnal things) but by every word that comes out from the mouth of God.

The carnal things are only important and useful in this life only and only for carnal living.
However, when it comes to the spiritual and eternity only the word of God matters.

Friend Jesus died for you so you will be saved and that through faith in him by accepting him as your Lord and saviour you may have eternal life.

All this is really hogwash and holds no real meaning where Jesus Christ is concerned. undecided

Those who work by belong to Jesus Christ are those who live in continuous submission and obedience of the teachings(and commandments) of Jesus Christ. They live every moment of their existence in obedience of God's Law, Jesus Christ. They are not moved by the issues and circumstances of existence of what is reality - John 14 vs 15 - 25 .That is what faith means. undecided

Those who "walk by sight" are those who are lead by the results they see of the efforts. They are those who continuously examine the outcomes of their efforts in other to make decisions or take next steps. undecided
