A look at the vast array of senses that we have and how we interpret them. We also develop spiritual blind spots. How do we address them? How do we engage with others to help them with their spiritual blind spots?
Sermon Notes
God gives us a very sophisticated sensory array and a capacity to interpret those senses. But, sometimes we lack perception. There have been many points in history where we thought our armor would protect us.
There are different points of our self. What about our unknown self that only God knows.
I Cor. 13:12 → God knows more than we know ourselves.
We have a blind spot that we cannot see, we have a facade that we show other people. We have the ‘unknown area’ where depression and addiction live.
How to address spiritual blind spots
Self-directed correction (seek help from God) “Secret faults.
God gets your attention through an external/internal event that cannot be ignored.
Loving help from others
Sometimes we are too hard on ourselves
Terms of Engagement to help others.
a.) Take the beam out of your eye.
b.) Beware of transference. You spot it, you got it. We are so intimately familiar with ourselves we can rationalize and see character flaws that we have in others.
c.) Must truly do all things in love (1 Cor 16:14)
Love shed abroad in our hearts through the Holy Spirit (Rom. 5:5)
