Upon reflecting on this, I considered how this metaphor relates to the way we interpret Scripture, particularly when trying to understand the mystery surrounding the apostle Paul’s true identity. It prompts us to ask: is the main issue not solely about Paul himself or our human longing for physical connection, but rather about shifting our focus away from the individual to Christ? Perhaps the uncertainty about who authored Hebrews serves as a reminder to concentrate on Christ rather than the person behind the writing. Ultimately, this situation underscores the fact that these biblical figures were ordinary people who lived faithfully and committed their lives to God. I find Jen’s perspective particularly persuasive. There is a significant difference between maintaining an online connection with someone and truly developing a face-to-face relationship. Even couples who meet initially through the internet often eventually desire a more personal, intimate connection, leading them to arrange in-person meetings. Furthermore, there is a hopeful expectation of someday meeting the revered saints in heaven. In that eternal realm, we will be perfected human beings, gaining knowledge similar to Christ’s, which ensures that our human nature will continue to play a vital role even amidst divine glory. During our earthly lives, we are rooted in our communities, local churches, and the personal relationships we nurture daily. Genuine, meaningful connections offer a deep sense of fulfillment. While the internet can satisfy certain needs—such as sharing honest thoughts or experiencing a sense of achievement—it remains an incomplete remedy for our more profound spiritual and emotional longings. Currently, I feel physically drained and unwell.
