In the realm of eternity, faith will transition into tangible reality. Faith, by nature, involves believing in intangible things. It necessitates a profound internal transformation, leading to the attainment of eternal life. This life is not physical, but rather spiritual, granting us new faculties such as sight, touch, taste, and hearing in a spiritual sense. These faculties find expression in our desires and shape our experience of life in Christ. For instance, when we perceive Christ, it is through our spiritual sight—a mode of perception that is challenging to elucidate when referring to something that lacks physical form. The Bible employs language that suggests our desires emanate this perception. As we engage with scripture, we encounter illumination, but it is crucial to note that this illumination is our personal interpretation of the ideas conveyed in scripture. This process of intellectual stimulation occurs as these ideas pass through our spiritual senses. The Bible aptly describes this phenomenon as a state of spiritual rest. We metaphorically "consume" the nourishing content of scripture, and in doing so, experience a deep satisfaction akin to having a fulfilling meal. The act of musing upon the scriptures can be likened to the sense of touch, as we actively engage with and internalize its teachings.

The sensation of touch represents the fulfillment of our eager desires. A single word from scripture encapsulates the entirety of salvation. Some aspects of salvation can be comprehended, while others must be accepted through faith. Our understanding of salvation and its enigmatic nature bring us a sense of fulfillment. We are exploring the depths of our inner selves within the confines of the physical world, and it is crucial to protect this inner realm. This is where we receive the gift of eternal life in our inner being, free from practical considerations. Our inner world encompasses beliefs that transcend our natural instincts and holds the potential to overcome the temptations of the flesh.

We strive to avoid labeling our reactions to the world as mere oversensitivity. However, it is important to acknowledge that God has created us in His likeness, and He responds to the world with perfect alignment to Himself. Our issue lies not in being overly sensitive, but rather in our disconnect from what is truly real and necessary in our reactions. In the scriptures, we witness God's presence not just in words, but as a tangible being. Throughout all of time and in every moment and corner of the universe, God unequivocally declares the truth of all things. As we elevate ourselves in worship of God, our encounter with doctrine and the unknown provides us with a comprehensive sense of alignment. The absence of anxiety signifies this alignment. This description encapsulates our perception of spiritual depth.
