CHAPTER-3 LESSON-(1) LEARNT FROM FOREFATHERS The journey with the Holy spirit would be awesome for every individual but to retail His friendship is the primary focus of this chapter. In this chapter, we will learn the Jewish forefathers who started their journey fabulously. But the flaws, they committed will be a eye-opener for us to follow in our lives. (1) Eyes of the righteous: Our Lord Jesus mentioned during His mount sermon that Eye is the lamp of the body, if therefore you eye is good, your whole body will be full of light [Mathew 5:22]. We have two eyes; one is a natural eye and the other one is the spiritual eye (Eye of the Heart). Lord Jesus, specifies the eyes of the heart in the Mathew (Chapter-5). The functions of the eyes of the heart (Fig.25) are to imagine, meditate,
visualize
and
to
see
the

manifestations. God’s judgement is based on the eyes of heart and not on the natural eyes. a. If any man looks at a woman to lust for her…committed adultery in his heart- Mathew 5:28 b. Every intent (Vision) and thoughts of their heart was only evil continually -Genesis 6:5 The first reference [Mathew 5.28] says that God watches the intent of our heart behind every vision. He (Jesus) mentioned that, if anyone looks a girl with a lustful vision (in His mind) then Lord considers this activity as adultery.
